This article employs the concepts of duplicity and posthegemony to analyse intimate and social interactions in Lucrecia Martel’s La niña santa [The Holy Girl] (2004) and Claudia Llosa’s Madeinusa (2005), focusing in particular on the personal and social development of each film’s female protagonist. By viewing the films through the psychoanalytic concepts of duplicity as defined by Harold Kelman and posthegemony as defined by Jon Beasley-Murray, we distinguish how each female protagonist strives toward posthegemonic status while adopting opposite approaches to duplicity. This is to say that Amalia entirely eschews duplicity while Madeinusa plays upon the liminalities of moral doubleness. In elaborating this argument, we will also demonstrate that both films represent a feminist critique of hegemony in which the emergent and emancipative subject liberates herself from the patriarchal apparatuses of the family, religion and community.

En este estudio de caso se aborda la intervención realizada en un centro de diagnóstico y atención temprana, a una alumna de dos años con hemiparesia lateral izquierda y dificultades en la manipulación y comunicación. Aplicando a lo largo de cuatro meses el sistema de Comunicación Total de Benson Schaeffer con el apoyo del método TEACCH, se pretende superar las graves limitaciones comunicativas de la alumna. El procedimiento metodológico utilizado es mixto y las técnicas de investigación empleadas son la aplicación de un test estandarizado, la entrevista, los registros de observación y el análisis documental. A partir del test cumplimentado por la madre que establece la evaluación inicial del caso, se diseña y aplica el programa realizando registros sistemáticos, al final de la intervención se vuelve a cumplimentar y se comparan los datos conseguidos. Además, se entrevista a la cuidadora de la niña y se analiza la documentación aportada por la familia y el centro donde es atendida. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que se han logrado grandes beneficios en cuanto a aprendizaje de los signos, comunicación de necesidades, emisión de verbalizaciones y generalización en los distintos contextos, fomentando en la niña una mayor autonomía y estableciendo unas bases sólidas sobre las que poder sustentar nuevos aprendizajes. This case study reports on an intervention undertaken at a diagnostic and early attention center with a two-year-old pupil with left lateral hemiparesis and difficulties in handling and communication. By applying for four months the Benson Schaeffer's system (Total Communication) with the support of the TEACCH method, we aimed to overcome this pupil’s serious communicative limitations. The methodological procedure used was mixed and the investigation techniques used were the application of a standardized test, interviews, records of observation and documentary analysis. From the test filled in by the mother, which established the initial evaluation of the case, the program was applied, and daily records were kept. At the end of the intervention, the test was completed again and the information was compared. In addition, we interviewed her nanny and we analyzed the documentation provided by the family and the center where she is tended. Results show clear progress on the part of the baby: learning of signs, communication of needs, emission of verbalizations and generalization in different contexts. This promoted in the baby more autonomy and established a solid base from which she will be able to sustain new learnings.

ABSTRACTThe family at transnational, linked through glocal home, constitutes a reality that, unlike what is assumed, builds relationship processes beyond the co-presence and co-residence. In the configuration of the new experience, the family resorted to practices that make it possible to interconnect and sustainability of relational and binding sense. "Homework," emerges as educational practice in expressing content type cognitive, affective and experiential allowing the scaffolding, learning and relationship. Through homework process builds interactivity and educational influence mechanisms are deployed. Reflection corresponds to one of the findings of a research process interpretative case study, based from the sociocultural constructivism. The unit of observation, analysis and interpretation is the sequence of joint activity that the family (the girl and her grandmother in the classroom setting and the girl and her mother virtual scenario) constructed from the completion of a school assignment. The analysis is organized around three levels of interactivity structure, semiotic analysis and negotiation of meanings.RESUMENLa familia en situación de transnacionalidad, vinculada a través del hogar glocal, se constituye en una realidad que, a diferencia de lo que se supone, construye procesos de relación más allá de la copresencia y la corresidencia. En la configuración de la nueva experiencia, la familia recurre a prácticas que le hacen posible la interconexión y la sostenibilidad del sentido relacional y vinculante. “La tarea escolar”, emerge como práctica educativa en la que expresan contenidos de tipo cognitivo, afectivo y experiencial que permiten el andamiaje, el aprendizaje y la relación. A través de la tarea escolar se construye un proceso de interactividad y se despliegan mecanismos de influencia educativa. La reflexión corresponde a uno de los hallazgos de un proceso de investigación interpretativa de estudio de caso, fundamentado desde el constructivis-mo sociocultural. La unidad de observación, análisis e interpretación es la secuencia de la actividad conjunta que el grupo familiar (la niña y su abuela en el escenario presencial y la niña y su madre escenario virtual) construyen a partir de la realización de una tarea escolar. El análisis se organiza a partir de tres niveles: la estructura de la interactividad, análisis semiótico y negociación de significados. Contacto principal: [email protected]

Estudos locais de caraterização e variabilidade climática são fundamentais para geração de informações mais adaptadas às atividades agrícolas desenvolvidas em um município ou região. O objetivo desse trabalho foi caracterizar climaticamente e analisar a influência de eventos El Niño Oscilação Sul (ENOS) na série 1956-2015 de temperatura do ar de Veranópolis, RS. Para caracterização climática foram estabelecidas estatísticas descritivas das temperaturas do ar máximas, mínimas e médias mensais, estacional e anual na série e normal climatológica padrão 1961- 1990. Para identificação de diferenças entre estações e influência de eventos ENOS, os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância e teste de Duncan. Os resultados indicaram que a temperatura média anual é de 17,3ºC, variando entre 12,7ºC (julho) e 21,8ºC (janeiro). O clima é do tipo Cfb, de acordo com a classificação climática de Köppen e TE (temperado) na classificação climática do Estado. Temperaturas mínimas médias mensais inferiores a 10ºC ocorrem de maio a setembro, período de maior variabilidade interanual das temperaturas máximas (desvio padrão entre 1,5º e 1,8ºC), mínimas (1,6-1,8ºC) e médias mensais (1,4-1,7ºC). Anos de La Niña possuem temperaturas médias estacionais inferiores as de El Niño, embora diferenciação em relação a neutros ocorra somente para temperaturas mínimas na primavera e máximas no outono.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a relação entre o fenômeno El Niño Oscilação Sul - ENOS e o rendimento de grãos de soja e de milho no Rio Grande do Sul e verificar a hipótese de que os eventos El Niño são favoráveis e os eventos La Niña são prejudiciais ao rendimento de grãos das culturas. Foram utilizados dados de rendimento de grãos dos anos agrícolas de 1974/75 a 2016/17, e relacionados com as ocorrências de eventos ENOS. Foram analisados os dados de rendimento observados na colheita e os dados estimados com a remoção da tendência tecnológica. Os resultados mostraram que não houve diferença significativa do rendimento médio de grãos de soja e de milho na comparação entre os eventos ENOS. Palavras-chave: El Niño, La Niña, safras agrícolas. Abstract – The objective of this work was to evaluate the relationship between the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon with the grain yield of soybean and maize in Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil and to verify the hypothesis that the El Niño events are favorable and the La Niña events are harmful to the culture’s grain yields. Were used data from the agricultural years of 1974/75 to 2016/17, and related to the occurrence of ENOS events. We analyzed income data observed at harvest and estimated data with technological tendency was removed. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the average yield of soybeans and corn in the comparison between events.

Atmospheric teleconnection circulation patterns associated with severe and mild ice cover over the Great Lakes are investigated using the composite analysis of lake ice data and National Center of Environmental Prediction (NCEP) reanalysis data for the period 1963–2011. The teleconnection pattern associated with the severe ice cover is the combination of a negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) or Arctic Oscillation (AO) and negative phase of Pacific/North America (PNA) pattern, while the pattern associated with the mild ice cover is the combination of a positive PNA (or an El Niño) and a positive phase of the NAO/AO. These two extreme ice conditions are associated with the North American ridge–trough variations. The intensified ridge–trough system produces a strong northwest-to-southeast tilted ridge and trough and increases the anomalous northwesterly wind, advecting cold, dry Arctic air to the Great Lakes. The weakened ridge–trough system produces a flattened ridge and trough, and promotes a climatological westerly wind, advecting warm, dry air from western North America to the Great Lakes. Although ice cover for all the individual lakes responds roughly linearly and symmetrically to both phases of the NAO/AO, and roughly nonlinearly and asymmetrically to El Niño and La Niña events, the overall ice cover response to individual NAO/AO or Niño3.4 index is not statistically significant. The combined NAO/AO and Niño3.4 indices can be used to reliably project severe ice cover during the simultaneous –NAO/AO and La Niña events, and mild ice cover during the simultaneous +NAO/AO and El Niño events.

We use the heterogenous autoregressive (HAR) model to compute out-of-sample forecasts of the monthly realized variance (RV) of movements of the spot and futures price of heating oil. We extend the HAR–RV model to include the role of El Niño and La Niña episodes, as captured by the Equatorial Southern Oscillation Index (EQSOI). Using data from June 1986 to April 2021, we show evidence for several model configurations that both El Niño and La Niña phases contain information useful for forecasting subsequent to the realized variance of price movements beyond the predictive value already captured by the HAR–RV model. The predictive value of La Niña phases, however, seems to be somewhat stronger than the predictive value of El Niño phases. Our results have important implications for investors, as well as from the perspective of sustainable decisions involving the environment.
