Abstract Environmental effects of temperature rise and long periods without precipitation on soil processes - case study for southern Slovakia. The general purpose of the article is to evaluate the environmental effects of temperature rise and long periods without precipitation on soil processes in southern Slovakia. Observed climate change (increase in average temperature) can cause changes in the fertility of the soil, especially in the direction of faster mineralization of organic matter. As an example, very accurate measurements of air temperature, rainfall and water content in the soil profile to a depth of 1 m are used. The more specific objective of the study was to evaluate the formation of soil water retention resources under high temperature conditions and over 30 days without rainfall. Based on the measured values, they were created graphs for extended period of time without precipitation. The graph shows the average daily soil moisture in each layer, which is measured at the hydrological network of stations in operation by Centre of Excellence for Integrated River Basin Management at SUA in Nitra. The final evaluation for the stations Žirany and Dolné Naštice, soil water content is showing the vulnerability of crops due to changes in water content, especially in layers from 0.3 to 0.5 m.

Abstract We report and discuss monitoring of short-term variations of widely used multi-geophysical parameters in Latur-Killari area in western India, the region that faced a major devastating earthquake in 1993. An abnormal rise in atmospheric temperature of more than 20 ° C at 11200 m height was observed in the air-flight just 100 km away from Latur during a monsoon period. To investigate the causes of such temperature rise, we studied seismicity of the area in relation to the 1993 Latur event, and continuously monitored ground-water level and soil Helium gas for one week immediately following this observation under a precursory ‘quick please’ operation in the study area. There are no precursory seismic signals associated with this temperature rise; hence the operation was suspended after one week time. Although this thermal anomaly is not followed by any major earthquake over the area, it has larger implications in atmosphere research area. While a detailed investigation of such anomaly is beyond the scope this paper, we report here the possibility that the satellite thermal sensor cannot penetrate thick clouds to accurately retrieve the temperature. We are cautious of arriving at a firm conclusion, but the findings of this study certainly call for continuous monitoring of temperature over the earthquake prone areas to gain insight into the physics of short-lived variation in temperature over spatially limited extent, especially over the earthquake prone areas for improved seismic hazard assessment.

AbstractUsing interviews with former militants and previously unpublished documents, this article traces the genesis and internal dynamics of the Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo (People's Revolutionary Army, ERP) in El Salvador during the early years of its existence (1970–6). This period was marked by the inability of the ERP to maintain internal coherence or any consensus on revolutionary strategy, which led to a series of splits and internal fights over control of the organisation. The evidence marshalled in this case study sheds new light on the origins of the armed Salvadorean Left and thus contributes to a wider understanding of the processes of formation and internal dynamics of armed left-wing groups that emerged from the 1960s onwards in Latin America.

Abstract Culture shapes our basic sensory experience of the world. This is particularly striking in the study of religion and psychosis, where we and others have shown that cultural context determines both the structure and content of hallucination-like events. The cultural shaping of hallucinations may provide a rich case-study for linking cultural learning with emerging prediction-based models of perception.

Abstract Hoerl and McCormack demonstrate that although animals possess a sophisticated temporal updating system, there is no evidence that they also possess a temporal reasoning system. This important case study is directly related to the broader claim that although animals are manifestly capable of first-order (perceptually-based) relational reasoning, they lack the capacity for higher-order, role-based relational reasoning. We argue this distinction applies to all domains of cognition.
