Analysis of determinants of maize price variations in Nigeria (1978 - 2014)
No full textSkyrocketing prices of food staples such as maize can lead to inefficient agricultural production and definitely have detrimental effects on the economic, social, and political growth of any country. Most studies on maize in Nigeria are focused on the increasing consumption or competitiveness, very few address the determinants of maize price change as a panacea for the increase of productivity. Filling this gap requires a study on the various factors that contribute to the variations in the price of maize. In this study, secondary data were used. The study used descriptive statistics tools to analyze the pattern of price variations and changes in the production of maize over a period of 36 years in Nigeria. Also, various factors affecting price variation of maize were examined. It was recommended that the positive and significant impact of country’s population to maize price change should serve as an impulse to encourage investment in agricultural sector of Nigeria in order to ensure food security in the country. Also, the government should use the inflation measures to regulate prices of maize in the country
Hydroeconomic Modelling for Irrigated Agriculture Water Use in the Riviersonderend-Berg River Basin, South Africa
No full textThis paper presents the development of an integrated hydroeconomic model for a large water system in which urban and agricultural sectors are the dominant water users, and climate change presents a major environmental challenge. The purpose of this model is to analyze the potential effects of different institutional scenarios and policy interventions on the environment and the regional economy, under varying water availability conditions. Our approach involves replicating base water use and environmental flow conditions in order to build the capacity to adapt to future climate-related water stresses. The modelling framework integrates hydrology, economics, climate stress, infrastructure constraints and institutional water supply decisions to address water stress variability. We analyze the effects of two water allocation policies, namely, water markets and proportional sharing. The results show the enhancement of economic benefits that can be achieved when high-valued water users are prioritized in the study area. We find that irrigated regions growing large quantities of higher valued crops such as fruit trees, maize and tobacco bear a smaller percentage of shortages than those with lower-valued crops as climate stress intensifies. This study informs strategies for water resource management in South Africa and many arid regions, given the imminent climate change impacts on water availability in coming decades
The Business Intelligence as a Service in the Cloud
No full textLimitations imposed by the traditional practice in financial institutions of running risk analysis on the desktop mean many rely on models which assume a “normal” Gaussian distribution of events which can seriously underestimate the real risk. In this paper, we propose an alternative service which uses the elastic capacities of Cloud Computing to escape the limitations of the desktop and produce accurate results more rapidly.The Business Intelligence as a Service (BIaaS) in the Cloud has a dual-service approach to compute risk and pricing for financial analysis. The first type of BIaaS service uses three APIs to simulate the Heston Model to compute the risks and asset prices, and computes the volatility (unsystematic risks) and the implied volatility (systematic risks) which can be tracked down at any time. The second type of BIaaS service uses two APIs to provide business analytics for stock market analysis, and compute results in the visualised format, so that stake holders without prior knowledge can understand. A full case study with two sets of experiments is presented to support the validity and originality of BIaaS. Additional three examples are used to support accuracy of the predicted stock index movement as a result of the use of the Heston Model and its associated APIs.We describe the architecture of deployment, together with examples and results which show how our approach improves risk and investment analysis and maintaining accuracy and efficiency whilst improving performance over desktops
The effect of population growth on the agricultural production in Nigeria (1961-2013)
No full textAs of 2000, the total population estimate of Nigeria stood at about 124 million people, this number increased to 170 million in the year 2012, which shows a growth rate of 3.8% between 2000 and 2012. This figure provides an indication that the Nigerian population is among the fastest-growing populations in the world, on the other hand, food production increases marginally, at a rate lower than the population growth rate. This paper examined the effect of the Nigerian population on agricultural production over a period of 53 years. Descriptive analysis was used to analyse the pattern and the trend of agricultural production. Granger causality and Ordinary Least Squares were used to examine the relationship between agricultural production and population growth. It was recommended that there is a need for the government to support innovative ways for increasing agricultural production, to meet the demand of the increasing population of the country. There is a need for research bodies to improve production to match the country’s increasing population, so sustainable development could be achieved. In order for agricultural production to meet the increasing population demand, there is a need for the development of improved high-yield, disease-resistant varieties coming from certified nurseries where the varieties can be traced. There is a need for innovative processes through which agricultural products and processing methods can be learned through extension services by the general population, so as to reduce malnutrition and poverty in the country

The theme of the thesis is fashion illustration in Finnish media. It is a personal project and the starting point was the author’s own interests and external assignment. The work includes two phases, a theoretical and functional one, and the aim is to create contacts to working life in media business.
As a multifaceted project the data is mainly based on literary sources. The most essential phases on the basic information section are described from a designer’s and illustrator’s point of view using epistemology. In this first section the thesis focuses on Finnish media and its visual appearance. The background and literature of analytical methods, which were used in the functional phase of the project, were examined.
On the productive phase a fashion-themed illustration is produced for an external client. The picture is published on a Finnish fashion blog and the process is opened up both verbally and visually using Anja Hatva’s, Charles Peirce’s, Victor Papanek’s and Henri Poincaré’s analytical methods.
The project is professionally significant for the author because the entire process is based on developing the de-signer’s professional skills as an illustrator and opening up concrete contacts to working life. The process includes everything from collecting the epistemology up to designing and execution
Valokuvaa ei ole
No full textVäitöskirja koostuu kuudesta aiemmin julkaistusta artikkelista ja johdantoluvusta. Artikkeleissa analysoidaan muun muassa valokuvan kerronnallisuutta, Esko Männikön valokuvien vastaanottoa, kriittisen maisemavalokuvauksen edellytyksiä ja nuorten tulkintoja monialayritys Benettonin mainoskuvista.
Teoreettisena ja metodisena lähtökohta on antiessentialistinen näkemys valokuvasta. Se tarkoittaa sitä, että valokuvat saavat merkityksensä aina niissä kulttuurisissa tiloissa, joissa ne tuotetaan ja tulkitaan. Tutkimuksen nimi Valokuvaan ei ole viittää juuri siihen, että mitään kulttuurisista konteksteista irrallista valokuvallista merkitystä ja valokuvaa ei ole.
Tutkimuksessa arvioidaan myös ns. brittiläisen ja yhdysvaltalaisen valokuvatutkimuksen perinteitä. Näitä perinteitä läpikäymällä rakennetaan perustaa yhteiskuntatieteelliselle valokuvatutkimukselle.
Väitöskirjassa osoitetaan, kuinka vastaanottotutkimus avaa valokuvatutkimukselle uusia mahdollisuuksia ja antaa sille eväitä päästä keskusteluyhteyteen laajemman viestinnän tutkimuksen kanssa.The study includes six previously published articles and an introduction which is labeled Kaksi traditiota (Two traditions). The label refers to the American and British photography research as they developed from the beginning of 1970s to the present day. Key researchers - to mention only a few - are Abigail Solomon-Godeau, John Tagg, Allan Sekula, Jo Spence and Victor Burgin. In the introduction I develop my theoretical and methodological approach, which I call antiessentialism. The concept refers to the idea that the photograph has no intrinsic identity or ontological nature. In a sense, the photograph as such does not exist. Antiessentialism emphasizes that photographs are part of discoursive formations. The meanings of photographs depend on the contexts in which photographs are used and interpreted. I argue that antiessentialism is the most important theoretical and methodological common denominator for the two traditions mentioned above. In my articles I 'materialize' a rather philosophical and abstract antiessentialist view to the specific research problems.
The first article (Who stole the landscape photograph? Some remarks on critical practices in landscape photography.) concerns the critical photography practices (pastiche, appropriation, intertextuality and simulation) which were employed by so-called postmodern photographers in United States during the late 1970s. The basic research problem was: how to call into the question the landscape as an unproblematic, romantic and harmless space between nature and culture? I tried to find some tools for landscape photography to deconstruct the mythical representations of landscape which one can find in advertisements, for example. I used Sherrie Levine's pastiches of Eliot Porter's landscape photographs as a typical example of postmodern strategies. However, those critical strategies have their own shortcomings. The basic problem is the reception of 'critical' postmodern works. I refered to Linda Andre's article 'Politics of Postmodern Photography'. Andre writes: "Imagine the experience of three different gallerygoers at an exhibition of Sherrie Levine's work. Say it is a show of rephotographed Eliot Porters. The first viewer, unfamiliar with art photography, assumes that Sherrie Levine is a landscape photographer and enjoys the conventional beauty of the pictures. The second viewer knows Porter's work and recognizes Levine's pictures as copies, but finds the meaning of the gesture unclear. The third viewer has read Barthes, so the Levine photos (unlike Porter's) enable him or her to 'immediately grasp the wholly conventional (and as Barthes would have said, entirely mythological) scheme in which 'Nature' is made to be seen as 'Beautiful'." My conclusion is: critical postmodern practices might be useful in deconstructing mythical landscape representations. However, they must be very well aware of the cultural preconditions of their reception.
The second article (Notes on the narrativity of photography.) calls into the question the concept of photograph's narrativity. The narrativity of photography has not been very much discussed within photography research. This paper approaches the problem from three perspectives. First, the semiotic functions of photography are discussed. The narrative potentials of photography are considered to be dependent on the semiotic functions possible for photography. Second, the concept of narrativity itself is reviewed by referring to a debate between Manuel Alvarado and Kevin Halliwell in the early 1980s. Third, the author defines the narrativity of photography in the same as it is defined in current Finnish news research. As an example, a reportage from a monthly magazine is analysed.
The third article (How to approach the photograph? Three theoretical models.) outlines three theoretical ideal types for understanding the photograph as a societal phenomenon. The aesthetic-formalistic approach is based on Beaumont Newhall's historical study of the photograph. The discursive-functionalistic perspective approaches the photograph within different institutional practices that define the meanings and identity of the photograph; this approach is mainly based on John Tagg's work The Burden of Representation. The third ideal type is concerned with the constitution of observing subject and the position of photograph in this process. This approach is illustrated by reference to Jonathan Crary's study. The aesthetic-functional understanding of the meaning of the photograph is widespread both in the litterature on the photograph and in everyday conceptions. The basic problem with this approach lies in its essentialism, in its desire to preserve and construct the photograph's own identity. It is difficult within this sort of thinking to perceive the photograph at the crossroads of different kinds of societal practices. Nor does the aesthetic-formalistic view deliberate upon its place as part of discourses constructing the photograph and photography. From this point of view Newhall's work is more an object of study waiting to be deconstructed rather than a relevant study of the photograph. Tools for this deconstructive excercise are provided by the discursive-functionalistic approach, which aims to unravel the cultural meanings of the photograph in different practices. It sociologizes the aesthetics of the photograph and contaminates it throughout with social theory. However, the problem with this approach is that it is not capable of recognizing the historical constitution of the obeserving subject. The constitutional theory perspective poses the question of subject constitution and at once raises the question of whether it would be worthwhile to study the photograph in itself or as part of broader changes that have taken place in visual culture.
The next article (Nature in newspaper photographs: On the relations between text and image in environmental discourse.) is written together with Esa Väliverronen. The role of photographs and the visual elements in environmental discourse has received only very little explicit and systematic attention. This is quite strange because many researchers admit that photographs have had an important role to play in the 'environmental awakening' since the 1960s; if people had not been alerted to the environmental crisis earlier, they were certainly shaken by the images of oiled seabirds, poisoned fish and forests destroyed by acid rain that were shown in their living rooms. At the same time, wonders-of-nature documentaries and colourful nature books have continued to offer images of untouched nature which has not yet been destroyed. The relationship of the photograph to nature is an internal one, in two overlapping ways. Firstly, the photograph is seen discursively as an integral part of nature. Secondly, nature photographs are constructed as a spectacle that in itself is (simulated) nature, This simulated nature can appeal to the viewer's emotions in many different ways e.g. it may become the target of 'affective inputs'. This article considers the role of the photograph in environmental communication. More concretely, we are concerned with the definition, popularisation and visualisation of biodiversity in a certain newspaper. The study consists of stories published in the Finnish newspaper Helsingin Sanomat between 1990 and 1997, and the analysis starts with the photographs featured in these stories. We focus on the way that nature is represented, the relationship between man and nature and the politics of biodiversity. In contrast to forest destruction, ozone depletion and climate change, the destruction of biodiversity has had no special or distinctive visual symbol of its own, and it has proved a very difficult task to popularise and visualise this particular problem. Perhaps the most common way of popularising and visualising biodiversity is via endangered species, summing up the problem with earlier environmental thinking and its imagery; many conservation organisations, for instance, have used 'charismatic' and 'photogenic' species such as pandas, tigers, whales and elephants in their symbols. Our examples demonstrate the key role that photographs can play in the production of meanings e.g. producing a 'reality effect', providing an opportunity for affective inputs, and constructing social relationships between different actors. They point to alternative and rival interpretations, opening the door to different affects and experiences. Texts can be used to influence the way photographs are interpreted, but on the other hand photographs can also be used to construct new meanings into texts
Evaluating the association between artificial light-at-night exposure and breast and prostate cancer risk in Spain (MCC-Spain study)
No full textThis is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) via the DOI in this record.Background:Night shift work, exposure to light at night (ALAN) and circadian disruption may increase the risk of hormone-dependent cancers.Objectives:We evaluated the association of exposure to ALAN during sleeping time with breast and prostate cancer in a population based multicase–control study (MCC-Spain), among subjects who had never worked at night. We evaluated chronotype, a characteristic that may relate to adaptation to light at night.Methods:We enrolled 1,219 breast cancer cases, 1,385 female controls, 623 prostate cancer cases, and 879 male controls from 11 Spanish regions in 2008–2013. Indoor ALAN information was obtained through questionnaires. Outdoor ALAN was analyzed using images from the International Space Station (ISS) available for Barcelona and Madrid for 2012–2013, including data of remotely sensed upward light intensity and blue light spectrum information for each geocoded longest residence of each MCC-Spain subject.Results:Among Barcelona and Madrid participants with information on both indoor and outdoor ALAN, exposure to outdoor ALAN in the blue light spectrum was associated with breast cancer [adjusted odds ratio (OR) for highest vs. lowest tertile, OR=1.47; 95% CI: 1.00, 2.17] and prostate cancer (OR=2.05; 95% CI: 1.38, 3.03). In contrast, those exposed to the highest versus lowest intensity of outdoor ALAN were more likely to be controls than cases, particularly for prostate cancer. Compared with those who reported sleeping in total darkness, men who slept in “quite illuminated” bedrooms had a higher risk of prostate cancer (OR=2.79; 95% CI: 1.55, 5.04), whereas women had a slightly lower risk of breast cancer (OR=0.77; 95% CI: 0.39, 1.51).Conclusion:Both prostate and breast cancer were associated with high estimated exposure to outdoor ALAN in the blue-enriched light spectrum. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1837The study was partially funded by the Accion Transversal del Cancer, approved by the Spanish Ministry Council on 11 October 2007, by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III-FEDER (PI08/1770, PI08/0533, PI08/1359, PS09/00773-Cantabria, PS09/01286-León, PS09/01903-Valencia, PS09/02078-Huelva, PS09/01662-Granada, PI11/01889-FEDER, PI11/02213, PI12/00488, PI12/00265, PI12/01270, PI12/00715, PI14/0613), by the Fundación Marqués de Valdecilla (API 10/09), by the ICGC International Cancer Genome Consortium CLL [the ICGC CLL-Genome Project is funded by Spanish Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO) through the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII) and Red Temática de Investigación del Cáncer (RTICC) del ISCIII (RD12/0036/0036)], by the Junta de Castilla y León (LE22A10-2), by the Consejería de Salud of the Junta de Andalucía (PI-0571-2009, PI-0306-2011, salud201200057018tra), by the Conselleria de Sanitat of the Generalitat Valenciana (AP_061/10), by the Regional Government of the Basque Country, by the Consejería de Sanidad de la Región de Murcia, by the European Commission grants FOOD-CT-2006-036224-HIWATE, by the Spanish Association Against Cancer (AECC) Scientific Foundation, by the Catalan Government–Agency for Management of University and Research Grants (AGAUR) grants 2014SGR647 and 2014SGR850, by the Fundación Caja de Ahorros de Asturias, and by the University of Oviedo.
