ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti is the predominant vector of dengue, chikungunya, and Zika viruses. This mosquito is difficult to control with conventional methods due to its container-inhabiting behavior and resistance to insecticides. Autodissemination of pyriproxyfen (PPF), a potent larvicide, has shown promise as an additional tool to control Aedes species in small-scale field trials. However, few large-scale field evaluations have been conducted. We undertook a 6-month-long large-scale field study to compare the effectiveness and operational feasibility of using In2Care Mosquito Traps (In2Care Traps, commercially available Aedes traps with PPF and Beauveria bassiana) compared to an integrated vector management (IVM) strategy consisting of source reduction, larviciding, and adulticiding for controlling Ae. aegypti eggs, larvae, and adults. We found that while the difference between treatments was only statistically significant for eggs and larvae (P < 0.05 for eggs and larvae and P > 0.05 for adults), the use of In2Care Traps alone resulted in 60%, 57%, and 57% fewer eggs, larvae, and adults, respectively, collected from that site compared to the IVM site. However, In2Care Trap deployment and maintenance were more time consuming and labor intensive than the IVM strategy. Thus, using In2Care Traps alone as a control method for large areas (e.g., >20 ha) may be less practical for control programs with the capacity to conduct ground and aerial larviciding and adulticiding. Based on our study results, we conclude that In2Care Traps are effective at suppressing Ae. aegypti and have the most potential for use in areas without sophisticated control programs and within IVM programs to target hotspots with high population levels and/or risk of Aedes-borne pathogen transmission.

Small sided-games training is a small-scale field, an appropriate situation developed for young players, so they can learn and develop. Small sided games training is also one of the methods of soccer training using smaller fields with fewer players. This training method  is a fairly effective exercise in physical improvement, techniques and tactics Passing is to feed the ball or pass the ball to a friend, while passing determination is the ability to set goals / pass the ball according to the goal or target. This research is an experimental research conducted with the aim to find out whether or not there is a result of something done on the sample to be studied. The research began with a pretest and ended with a posttest. The number of samples in this study amounted to 20 people. The training given was done during 16 meetings. This research was tested using a statistical analysis of the hipotsis test (t test). Based on data analysis, it can be concluded that the small sided games exercise gives a significant effect on the accuracy of passing on extracurricular students at SMP Negeri  1 Muaro Jambi, proven in the pre-test and post-test assessments with an average pre-test = 505 and post-test = 7.65, with the increment difference of 7.65. This can be seen by the T test that is Tcount = 3.492787 ˃ Ttable = 1.72913. Based on the results of research and  calculations from the data and discussions that have been carried out, this research proves that there is an influence of small sided games training on the passing accuracy of extracurricular students at Muaro Jambi State Junior High School.

<p>In the past decades researchers have revealed links between a series of sub-auroral ionospheric phenomena and the plasmapause (PP) dynamics, such as the mid-latitude ionospheric trough (MIT) and the associated sub-auroral temperature enhancement (SETE), the light-ion trough (LIT), the sub-auroral ion drift (SAID) or the more intense sub-auroral polarisation stream (SAPS), and most recently, the inner boundary of small-scale field-aligned currents (SSFACs). Most of these phenomena can be directly observed by the Swarm constellation of ESA at LEO. Thus, Swarm presents a unique opportunity to study the relations between them and also their relation to the PP dynamics.</p><p>In a recent Swarm DISC project, PRISM (Plasmapause Related boundaries in the topside Ionosphere as derived from Swarm Measurements), three new products have been developed. Two products characterise the MIT (and the associated SETE). The MITx_LP utilises the Langmuir probe measurements of electron density and temperature, while the MITxTEC product derives the MIT properties from GPS TEC observations. The third product, PPIxFAC provides information on the location and the main characteristics of the equatorial boundary of SSFACs, and it also includes a proxy for the location of the PP at MLT midnight.</p><p>In this presentation we introduce the above Swarm L2 products, present the results of a comparative study aiming at revealing their mutual relations and also their dynamic coupling to the PP. Then we demonstrate how the observations of all these ionospheric phenomena combined can be used to develop an improved proxy for monitoring the PP dynamics at LEO as one of the goals of our new ESA-funded project PLASMA.</p>

AbstractWe review those processes associated with accretion discs that are probably influenced by magnetic fields, specifically, accretiondisc viscosity, energy dissipation and jet formation. We consider how magnetic instabilities in the disc can lead to a self-sustaining dynamical dynamo and how this is manifested as magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in numerical simulations. We show that currently these models do not fit with observational constraints imposed by dwarf-nova outbursts. We also show that the drop in ionisation fraction does not lead to the apparently necessary drop in viscosity in quiescent cataclysmic variable discs. Large-scale magnetic fields are required to launch and collimate jets form discs. We describe an inverse cascade process that can construct sufficient large-scale field from small-scale field generated by a dynamo.
