Relationship between wave processes in sunspots and quasi-periodic pulsations in active region flares
No full textA phenomenological relationship between oscillations in a sunspot and quasi-periodic pulsations (QPP) in flaring energy releases at an active region (AR) above the sunspot is established. The analysis of the microwave emission recorded by the Nobeyama Radioheliograph at 17 GHz shows a gradual increase in the power of the 3-min oscillation train in the sunspot associated with AR 10756 before flares in this AR. The flaring light curves are found to be bursty with a period of 3 min. Our analysis of the spatial distribution of the 3-min oscillation power implies that the oscillations follow from sunspots along coronal loops towards the flaring site. It is proposed that QPP in the flaring energy releases can be triggered by 3-min slow magnetoacoustic waves leaking from sunspots

Abstract
The article considers the concepts of recreational resources and recreational conditions and emphasizes that not all recreational conditions and resources can be estimated using quantitative assessment scales. In the case when public recreational goods do not have quantitative assessments, they use the methods of ranking or verbal attributive comparisons. The concept of natural capital is considered in the work, attention is paid to ecological and economic assessments of recreational conditions and resources, also to the participation of the technosphere in the functioning of recreational and tourism activities, ranking of natural resources according to their competitive properties. The directions of development of the methodological scheme of estimation of recreational conditions and resources taking into account modern theoretical and methodical developments of social and economic benefits are marked.

Odesa І. І. Mechnikov National University
Abstract
Practical requests for recreational and tourist activities require the characterization and assessment of specific conditions and resources, specific facilities, areas and territories. Therefore, scientists and practitioners try to develop "working methods" for the assessment of recreational and tourist potential. This is how we explain the need to form a network systematics of recreational and tourist potential as a new direction of evaluation of recreational benefits. The main objectives of this article is the introduction and development of the concept of recreational cluster as the unit of the network systematics of recreational and tourist potential. Material and methods: as a methodological basis used developments that are set out in the scientific works of Ukrainian scientists and previous author's developments. Both general scientific methods (analysis and synthesis, system approach, induction and deduction) and specific scientific methods were used in the work. Results and discussion: the problem of developing integrated assessments of recreational and tourist potential remains as a core methodological direction, which is still far from being developed. We illustrate this approach with a formalized methodological scheme. It presents two areas of hierarchical systematics of recreational and tourist potential – component and functional. Another direction at the intersection of hierarchical classifications is formed by the network systematics of recreational and tourist potential. Conclusions: recreational cluster – is a unit of network taxonomy, which is formed at the intersection (of the component classification of recreational and tourist potential and functional taxonomy of recreational and tourist activity. The network systematics of recreational and tourist potential means combining recreational conditions and resources with their consumption in different types and forms of recreational and tourist activity.

Assessing the atmospheric deposition of heavy metals using biomonitoring of moss near a mine in south-central British Columbia
No full textMines are known to cause severe environmental problems. Heavy metals appear in the environment (i.e., during combustion, extraction, and processing), surface water (i.e., through runoff and releases from storage and transport), and in the soil. Air pollution is noted to be the primary concern of the public, in regard to mines. The presence of heavy metals in the air are known to have a drastic effect on human health and cause ecological implications. Moss have become a popular plant in monitoring studies as they have the ability to receive and accumulate heavy metals through absorption from the atmosphere and from their rooting substrate. These plants are very simple morphologically and anatomically and as a result, they are often chosen as an ideal organism for biomonitoring. I collected a total of 90 moss samples from 3 primary radii (North, East, and West) at distances of 1km, 2km, and 5km from the mine boundary for chemical analysis in order to meet two primary objectives: 1) determine whether moss outside the limits of the mine contain heavy metals: Lead (Pb), Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu), and Nickel (Ni); and 2) analyze the potential use and effectiveness of biomonitoring to assess ecosystem response. Due to COVID restrictions, only samples from East 5km and West 2km were analyzed. Using flame atomic adsorption spectrometry (FAAS), concentrations of Zn and Cu were found to be higher at the East 5km site than at the West 2km site due to elevation, wind trends, and leaching. Concentrations of Pb and Ni were undetectable by the FAAS. Moving forward, biomonitoring is a relatively inexpensive, passive way to assess ecosystem response. Air pollution levels change rapidly over time and moss as biomonitors are capable of monitoring and detecting external conditions averaged over periods of time. The environmental impacts of mines outside their boundaries is poorly studied and future research would be beneficial. A standardized protocol is lacking for sampling, sample preparation, and elemental analysis.biomonitoringbioindicatorbiodiversitymossminingheavy metalspollutio
A comparison of medical and physical therapies in the management of facial arthromyalgia (temporomandibular joint dysfunction).
No full textThis thesis reports on a randomised controlled trial of medical and physical therapy in the management of chronic temporomandibular joint pain and dysfunction. The literature review first explores the meaning and measurement of chronic pain. The anatomy and dynamic function of the temporomandibular joint and associated musculature is then introduced before describing the pain and dysfunction which affects this specific region. The development of terminology, classification and epidemiology is addressed to provide a basis for understanding the condition. A discussion of the presumed multifactorial aetiology and current management follows, with focus on the two areas of specific interest in this study the physical and medical therapies The study methods, results and discussion are presented in accordance with the CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) guidelines. A referral cohort of 1,038 subjects were screened and assessed. 250 subjects met inclusion criteria and agreed to participate with informed consent. Subjects were randomised into four groups: medical therapy, placebo, occlusal bite guard, medical therapy and occlusal bite guard. A three month treatment phase and a six month follow-up phase were then conducted. The first section of the results examines the referral cohort. Demographic, clinical diagnostic, and psychosocial profile are reported with treatment uptake for the trial. The second section examines the three month trial phase, treatment efficacy and outcome. The analysis of subgroups is explored, including the characteristics of responders and non-responders to therapy in addition to outcome measures in subjects with initially high pain scores and high levels of depression. The final section analyses reasons for patient withdrawal and non compliance before examining the follow up phase post therapy for maintenance of improvement. Both primary and secondary outcome measures revealed significant improvement in pain amongst all four groups which was maintained during the follow-up phase

Abstract
Changes taking place in recent decades in the global economy have led to the formation and development of new highly differentiated inter-branch complexes, rather than separated industries. In the global economy, such reorganization is marked by the formation of new sectors of the economy, one of which is a sector of socio-natural types of economic activity. At the level of regions, new integration formations are developed - regional inter-sectoral recreational complexes (IcRC). The purpose of our study is to substantiate the formation of regional inter-sectoral complexes of recreational and tourist activities (RTA) in the conditions of radical restructuring of the economy of post-industrial civilization. Inter-sectoral complex RTA is a set of different types of activities of the population - economic and non-economic, as well as leisure forms that provide the needs of the population of the region (countries) in recreation services, health improvement, healing and tourism, accompanying social services and recreational and tourist infrastructure. The study presents an author's vision of the composition and structuring of the regional inter-sectoral complex of recreation and tourism activity. The developed model of the inter-sectoral complex RTA covers all varieties of recreational activities with all its forms - tourism, organized recreation, unorganized (amateur) mass recreation, household recreation. The geographical bases for the formation of regional inter-sectoral recreational complexes are serving recreational and tourist resources - destinations that determine the specialization of the region by types of RTA. Depending on the level of development of RTA in the region, the RTA management systems may form. At the local and regional levels, the RTA nodes will be destinations - local and regional concentration of recreational and tourist resources with appropriate infrastructure. On the global (international) level, RTA retains a network form of a territorial organization, whose nodes are world centres and areas of tourism, as well as the main areas of formation of tourist flows.

Події 1989 року в країнах Східної Європи в контексті поняття «революція»
No full textThe author wonders to what extent the events of 1989 corresponded to generally accepted ideas about the revolution? He considers that in the characteristics of those events, the word «revolution» was not chosen very well. On the other hand, the reforms that began in Eastern Europe after rapid and dramatic events of 1989 were undoubtedly of revolutionary character.Autor zastanawia się, w jakim stopniu wydarzenia 1989 roku zgodne są z ogólnie przyjętymi opiniami o rewolucji.
