Land use/Land cover Classification of Modjo River Catchment, Upper Awash Basin, Central Ethiopia
No full textLULC maps play a significant and prime role in resource planning, management and monitoring in the formation of policies and programme required for development. Satellite sensor images, also called remote sensing images, due to their synoptic view, are a viable source of gathering effective land cover information. In this study the LULC based on the satellite image of years 2021 using remote sensing and GIS application where identify for Modjo river catchment. Hence the satellite images for this particular study were acquired from ETM+ images obtain from FAO Afrikaner database http://www.africover.org./index.htm.web site, which is a FREE Global Orthorectified Landsat Data accessing site via FTP. ArcGIS10.2 were used to process the satellite image and the identity of each class is determined by the combination of experience and ground truth. FISHER classifier technique of supervised image classification technique was applied to uncover commonly occurring and distinctive reflectance patterns in the imagery, on the assumption that these represent major land cover classes since the classes are known at the outset. Consequently valuable LULC Map were developed for Modjo river catchment. From the result, in Modjo river catchment five land use/cover such as agricultural land1086 km2, grassland 363 km2, Tree & Shrub 330 km2, Water body 154 km2 and Settlement 242 km2 of the total catchment area have identified and illustrated with different colors on the map. The Map can be utilized in formulating sustainable land development activity as well as in mitigating the challenges of land-degradation in the catchment

Identifying intimate partner violence in the primary care setting using trauma-informed care principles
No full textIntimate partner violence [IPV] is defined as the victimization of an individual through physical violence, sexual violence, stalking, psychological aggression, and coercion with whom the abuser has an intimate or romantic relationship (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2020). IPV is a global issue affecting 1 in 4 women and 1 in 10 men costing the economy $1.5 trillion and accounts for 20% of all violent crimes in the United States. Considering the statistics, there is a lack of standardized interventions, screening tools, or clinical guidelines that have been universally adopted in primary care settings. This project outlines the implementations of an IPV toolkit using the Knowledge-to-Action (KTA) Process Framework in an urban primary care clinic. Project facilitators were provided with an IPV informational sessions with an explanation of the proposed project, an explanation of screening tools, and an implementation timeline. Patient eligibility to participate in the project were individuals 18 years of age or older. Results from the HITS questionnaire positively identified one patient experiencing IPV and 27% of patients were open to receiving IPV resources. Participant surveys were conducted at the completion of an 8-week implementation period and results demonstrated that the toolkit was easily integrated into the primary care setting. Successful implementation of the IPV toolkit can introduce a method or IPV standardization of assessment tools to provide victim support and reduce IPV's economic burden

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
State Bureaucrats, Intellectuals and the Government: an Approach to the Horn Ruling Class
No full textThis article analyses the role of intellectuals and bureaucrats in Ethiopia in the twentieth century. They characterised the new milieu of the modern independent country, the unique case of an ancient state surviving the colonial conquest during the scramble for Africa. For a long historical period, Ethiopia had a religious and secular literature that was an expression of the interrelation between power an society, a standardised literature that produced an important number of historical documents reiterated and copied along centuries continuously
