Knowledge of water transmitting properties of an aquifer is crucial for successful groundwater development and management practices in an area. In this study, the determination of aquifer hydraulic ...characteristics at Yenagoa and environs from Dar Zarrouk parameters was carried out using 14 vertical electrical sounding data (VES) and information from existing boreholes. The Schlumberger electrode configuration was employed for the field data acquisition with a maximum half electrode separation (AB/2) ranging between 100 and 350 m. The VES data were interpreted using 1D inversion technique software (1X1D, Interpex, USA). A maximum of four geoelectric layers were delineated and the aquifer is characterized by loose sand with resistivity ranging from 136.1 to 828.6 Ωm and thickness of 8.3–97.6 m. Using the VES results and water resistivity, porosity was determined using modified Archie’s equation. The hydraulic conductivity (
K
) values obtained from three reference boreholes were combined with the electrical resistivity obtained from the respective nearby VES stations to determine a diagnostic constant (
Kρ
). The resulting relation was interpreted with Dar Zarrouk parameters to infer the hydraulic conductivity (
K
) and transmissivity (
T
) variations at vertical electrical sounding locations, where
K
values are unknown. The results indicate that porosity varies between 0.09 and 0.32. The hydraulic conductivities range from 0.8 × 10
−4
to 6.6 × 10
−4
m/s while the transmissivity values vary between 1.1 × 10

and 29.6 × 10

/s. The high transmissivity values are consistent with the aquifer being unconsolidated with fine–medium–coarse sands.
Kolorektal hastalık için laparoskopik cerrahi açık cerrahi ile karşılaştırıldığında postoperatif iyileşmeyi artırdığı gösterilmiştir. Özellikle, çalışmalar laparoskopik tekniklerin postoperatif ağrı ...ve iyileşme süresini azalttığı, postoperatif analjezi ihtiyacını azalttığı ve açık cerrahi ile karşılaştırıldığında normal aktivitelerine daha hızlı bir geri dönüş sağlayabildiğini öne sürmektedir. Kronik kramp tarzında karın ağrısı olan 38 yaşındaki kadın hastanın inen kolonda intusepsiyona neden olan dev lipomu vardı. Lipom kolonoskopi ile tespit edildi ve histolojik incelemede lipom tanısı konuldu, takiben elektif koşullarda tek port laparoskopik sol kolektomi ile ameliyat edildi. İntraoperatif ve postoperatif komplikasyon gelişmedi. Hasta postoperatif dördüncü günde sorunsuz olarak taburcu edildi.
Laparoscopic surgery for colorectal disease has been shown to improve postoperative healing compared with open surgery. Specifically, studies suggest that laparoscopic techniques can reduce postoperative pain and recovery time, reduce the need for postoperative analgesia, and allow a more rapid return to normal activities compared with open surgery. A series of cases have been reported in the literature concerning the success rate of single-incision laparoscopic colectomy used in the treatment of benign or malign colorectal disease. A 38-year-old female patient having chronic cramping abdominal pain, who\'s descending colon included a giant lipoma causing intussusceptions. Lipoma was detected by colonoscopy, the histological examination revealed lipoma and then was operated with single port laparoscopic left colectomy in elective conditions. No intraoperative and postoperative complications occurred. The operation time was 105 minutes. The wound size was 2.5 cm. The patient was discharged uneventfully on postoperative day four.
Šetana kola zajednički je naziv za kola koja se izvode uz napjeve na pripovjedne tekstove ili dvostihove bez instrumentalne pratnje. To su zatvorena ili otvorena kola koja u dva reda izvode pjevači ...krećući se jednostavnim korakom polaganog ili brzog tempa u smjeru kazaljke na satu. Ovo su najstarija kola u Hrvatskoj i u Europi o kojima postoje podaci još iz 18. stoljeća. U 20. stoljeću ona postepeno nestaju u spontanoj izvedbi jer pripovjedne tekstove potiskuju dvostisi iz istočne Slavonije i Srijema. Razlog je nestanka i njihova duljina, stoga nisu bila primjerena izvedbama na smotrama na kojima su se KUD-ovi trebali predstaviti u kratkom vremenskom okviru. Do 2016. godine autorica je snimila više od 200 izvedbi šetanih kola, najviše u zapadnom dijelu slavonske Posavine, sakupila nekoliko zbirki i tekstova od zapisivača na terenu, predstavila ih na izložbi Slavonija, Baranja i Srijem 2009. godine u Klovićevim dvorima, osnovala smotru koja je u četiri navrata održana u različitim mjestima Slavonije, izradila projekt putem kojih su upisana u Registar kulturnih dobara Republike Hrvatske. Autorica u ovome radu predstavlja šetana kola u pisanim izvorima od 18. do 21. stoljeća.
Fish species have been used to compare the ecological characteristics of two surface waters in the same geo-ecological zones of the Central Niger Delta. The authors carried out 24 ecological ...expeditions along the Kolo and Otuoke Creeks in the Study Area for the purpose of comparing the ecological characteristics of these two surface waters that are in the same geo-ecological zone. Duplicate ecological surveys were conducted across three fishing seasons in the Study Area, and the traditional eco-livelihoods knowledge of experienced fishermen was explored during the survey to ensure that the surveys captured the spatial and temporal variation of fish species distribution of these creeks. The result of our study shows that there was no significant statistical ecological differences between the Kolo and Otuoke Creeks based on the following ecological indices: relative species percentage abundance; species richness; species diversity index; Shannon diversity index; and Simpson diversity index. Furthermore, the Bray-Curtis similarity index was used to demonstrate that the two surface waters were ecologically significantly similar. The implication of our findings is that the ecological attributes of surface water in the same geo-ecological zone are not significantly different in the absence of major environmental noise or human induced stress.
Even though Serbia is especially rich in intangible cultural heritage and folklore, there is still no established register of intangible cultural assets in Serbia that could evaluate particular ...elements of folk heritage. The ethnographic heritage of Serbia is rich in spiritual values related to customs, celebrations, music, song, dance, stories and legends, and this type of heritage is presented through numerous festivals, gatherings and tourist events. The Network for the Preservation of Intangible Cultural Heritage was formed in 2012. Of the twenty-seven proposals submitted, six representative elements of ICH that reflect the ethnic cultural identity of the Serbian nation were initially chosen: the feasts for patron-saints, the St. George's Day ritual, a folklore dance called kolo, singing with the gusle, flute playing and rug making in Pirot. These elements play an important role in the creation of national identity and have the potential to become significant for tourism in Serbia. In this study, some of the elements proposed for the UNESCO Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage are described, and their importance for the cultural identity of the Serbian people is explained.
The management of living heritage is a new concern for the Tanzanian cultural heritage authorities. This article explores the implications of including living heritage in the management of Mongomi wa ...Kolo, a rock art site within the Kondoa World Heritage Site. Specifically, this article considers how best to integrate living heritage within the management of the Mongomi wa Kolo rock painting site. It then discusses the challenges of adapting the Tanzanian Antiquities legislation to cover living heritage.
