Recent Glacier Activity in the Taku Inlet Area, Southeastern Alaska
No full textContains results of author\u27s investigations in this region (58° 30\u27 N, 134° 04\u27 W) during the Juneau Ice Field Research Project in 1953. An attempt was made to determine extent and dates of the late postglacial maxima of Taku and Norris Glaciers. Forest trimlines were studied from aerial photographs and in the field, and annual growth rings were counted. The maximum attained by the Norris Glacier in 1910, probably greater than any since about 1200 A.D., is apparently unique among Juneau Ice Field glaciers; it may represent, however, a minor advance in 1910 on a high level maintained since mid-18th century. Taku Glacier reached maximum in the mid-18th century, its height near the present terminus; advancing since about 1900, Taku may now have reached its present maximum

No full textU-Pb and Hf isotopic analyses of detrital zircons from the Taku terrane, southeast Alaska
No full textThe Taku terrane consists of metamorphosed Carboniferous through Triassic marine clastic strata, volcanic rocks, and limestone which occur along the western margin of the Coast Mountains in southeastern (SE) Alaska. These rocks are juxtaposed along mid-Cretaceous thrust faults over Jura-Cretaceous basinal strata of the Gravina belt to the west and beneath Proterozoic through Carboniferous metamorphic rocks of the Yukon-Tanana terrane to the east. This paper presents U-Pb ages and Hf isotope analyses of detrital zircons from the Taku terrane, and compares these values with information from the adjacent Wrangellia, Alexander, and northern and southern portions of the Yukon-Tanana terrane (YTTn and YTTs). These comparisons suggest that: (1) Carboniferous strata of the Taku terrane were shed mainly from mid-Paleozoic igneous rocks of YTTs; (2) Permian strata of the Taku terrane were shed from mid-Paleozoic igneous rocks and intraformational Lower Permian volcanic rocks of YTTs as well as Upper Permian volcanic rocks exposed in YTTn; and (3) Triassic sandstones were shed from mid-Paleozoic igneous rocks of YTTs, whereas conglomerates were shed mainly from mid-Paleozoic arc rocks in YTTn. Hf isotope analyses of Paleozoic zircons record increasing continental input during Silurian-Devonian and Permian phases of magmatism. Similarities in isotopic characteristics, combined with stratigraphic and geochemical information presented by previous workers, suggest that strata of the Taku terrane accumulated on (and partly as lateral equivalents of) rocks of YTTs, and that the combined assemblages formed outboard or along strike of YTTn.The accepted manuscript in pdf format is listed with the files at the bottom of this page.

Possibilities for Psychological Support and Health Literacy Education for Sick Children
No full textThis paper focuses on communicative activities to help children develop health literacy, which is widely required for healthy and non-disabled persons, but is also important for those with special needs. However, considering its potential in special needs education practice, it would be useful to refer to medical practice based on health communication to focus on students’ disabilities and diseases. Health literacy is based on the theory of health promotion, and is positioned as a type of critical literacy when working with the wider environment to maintain and improve one’s own health, the health of others around one, and the health of community members. The concept is considered important in health education. Through the examples of communication activities, it was suggested that it would be effective to utilize the methods of medical communication to provide learning and support that is tailored to the health conditions of individual students. The content of self-care activities in the national curriculum is comprehensive, covering all disabilities, and teachers and curriculum planners are required to make learning activities specific to the individual conditions of each school
Historical Developments in Ensuring Education for Children undergoing Medical Treatment : Focusing on Developments in English-speaking Countries
No full textIn this article, in order to obtain clues for the historical verification of education for sick children, the historical development of such education are reviewed to obtain a historical perspective on the guaranteeing education for children undergoing medical treatment, focusing mainly on English- speaking countries. The reason for focusing on developments in English-speaking countries in this paper is that it may be useful to note the development of the so-called “new history of medicine.” In the UK, it is confirmed that educational guarantees for sick children were institutionalized from an early stage along with the development of childrenʼs hospitals. In the US, it is also confirmed that educational guarantees for children who require medical care has been established at the federal level, and that the scope and scope of the guarantees has been expanded, sometimes accompanied by litigation. In Canada, it is confirmed that the development of the Toronto Childrenʼs Hospital, based on previous research is a noteworthy example. The impact and influence of COVID-19 in the recent past is also outlined. It is considered necessary for children undergoing medical treatment to learn in a special environment due to their health and medical constraints. Discussions on inclusive education have become active, and the goal is for all children to learn in the same place. On the other hand, children undergoing medical treatment must be treated as an exception. If that is so, then the need to maintain and develop a system that continues learning in parallel with treatment should be universally explored. It is necessary to continue to consider this question

No full textA preferential attachment paradox: How preferential attachment combines with growth to produce networks with log-normal in-degree distributions
No full textEvery network scientist knows that preferential attachment combines with growth to produce networks with power-law in-degree distributions. How, then, is it possible for the network of American Physical Society journal collection citations to enjoy a log-normal citation distribution when it was found to have grown in accordance with preferential attachment? This anomalous result, which we exalt as the preferential attachment paradox, has remained unexplained since the physicist Sidney Redner first made light of it over a decade ago. Here we propose a resolution. The chief source of the mischief, we contend, lies in Redner having relied on a measurement procedure bereft of the accuracy required to distinguish preferential attachment from another form of attachment that is consistent with a log-normal in-degree distribution. There was a high-accuracy measurement procedure in use at the time, but it would have have been difficult to use it to shed light on the paradox, due to the presence of a systematic error inducing design flaw. In recent years the design flaw had been recognised and corrected. We show that the bringing of the newly corrected measurement procedure to bear on the data leads to a resolution of the paradox
