This exercise is part of the EU effort to strengthen Coordination & Harmonization in the follow up of the EU pilot Initiative on Coordination & Harmonization and a consequence of donor reporting requirements towards the Government of Mozambique, and in special the Departamento de Cooperação Internacional (DCI) and Departamento Nacional de Plano e Orçamento (DNPO) at the Ministry of Plan and Development (MPD). The data provided is based on the data provided by the Italian Cooperation in Mozambique. Completeness and exactness can only be guaranteed up to the 4th Quarter 2005 disbursement data. Forecast data is subject to own judgment of those reporting, and therefore might not always represent reality. The only sector codification allowed is the unique DAC/CRS sector classification which provides one five digit sector code per project, which should be the same in Headquarters and Field Offices. This will allow data from DbIS from different Donors to be compared nationally and internationally while at the same time providing a standard basis for analysis.

However, much less is known about sand dunes in deep‐marine settings that are affected by strong bottom currents. In this study, dune fields were identified on drowned isolated carbonate platforms in the Mozambique Channel (south‐west Indian Ocean). The acquired data include multibeam bathymetry, multi‐channel high‐resolution seismic reflection data, sea floor imagery, a sediment sample and current measurements from a moored current meter and hull‐mounted acoustic Doppler current profiler. The dunes are located at water depths ranging from 200 to 600 m on the slope terraces of a modern atoll (Bassas da India Atoll) and within small depressions formed during tectonic deformation of drowned carbonate platforms (Sakalaves Seamount and Jaguar Bank).

  • Global Ocean Surface Velocities from Drifters: Mean, Variance, El Nino–Southern~ Oscillation Response, and Seasonal Cycle Rick Lumpkin1 and Gregory C
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH: OCEANS, VOL. 118, 2992–3006, doi:10.1002/jgrc.20210, 2013 Global ocean surface velocities from drifters: Mean, variance, El Nino–Southern~ Oscillation response, and seasonal cycle Rick Lumpkin1 and Gregory C. Johnson2 Received 24 September 2012; revised 18 April 2013; accepted 19 April 2013; published 14 June 2013. [1] Global near-surface currents are calculated from satellite-tracked drogued drifter velocities on a 0.5 Â 0.5 latitude-longitude grid using a new methodology. Data used at each grid point lie within a centered bin of set area with a shape defined by the variance ellipse of current fluctuations within that bin. The time-mean current, its annual harmonic, semiannual harmonic, correlation with the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI), spatial gradients, and residuals are estimated along with formal error bars for each component. The time-mean field resolves the major surface current systems of the world. The magnitude of the variance reveals enhanced eddy kinetic energy in the western boundary current systems, in equatorial regions, and along the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, as well as three large ‘‘eddy deserts,’’ two in the Pacific and one in the Atlantic. The SOI component is largest in the western and central tropical Pacific, but can also be seen in the Indian Ocean. Seasonal variations reveal details such as the gyre-scale shifts in the convergence centers of the subtropical gyres, and the seasonal evolution of tropical currents and eddies in the western tropical Pacific Ocean. The results of this study are available as a monthly climatology. Citation: Lumpkin, R., and G.

  • Circulation, Renewal, and Modification of Antarctic Mode And
    APRIL 2001 SLOYAN AND RINTOUL 1005 Circulation, Renewal, and Modi®cation of Antarctic Mode and Intermediate Water* BERNADETTE M. SLOYAN1 Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Bremerhaven, Germany STEPHEN R. RINTOUL Antarctic CRC, University of Tasmania, and CSIRO Division of Marine Research, Hobart, Australia (Manuscript received 18 October 1999, in ®nal form 10 July 2000) ABSTRACT Nine hydrographic sections are combined in an inverse box model of the Southern Ocean south of ;128S. The inverse model has two novel features: the inclusion of independent diapycnal ¯ux unknowns for each property and the explicit inclusion of air±sea ¯uxes (heat, freshwater, and momentum) and the water mass transformation they drive. Transformation of 34 3 106 m3 s21 of Antarctic Surface Water by air±sea buoyancy ¯uxes, and cooling and freshening where Subantarctic Mode Water outcrops, renews cold, fresh Antarctic Intermediate Water of the southeast Paci®c and southwest Atlantic. Relatively cold, fresh mode and intermediate water enter the subtropical gyres, are modi®ed by air±sea ¯uxes and interior mixing, and return poleward as warmer, saltier mode and intermediate water. While the zonally integrated meridional transport in these layers is small, the gross exchange is approximately 80 3 106 m3 s21. The air±sea transformation of Antarctic surface water to intermediate water is compensated in the Southern Ocean by an interior diapycnal ¯ux of 32 3 106 m3 s21 of intermediate water to upper deep water. The small property differences between slightly warmer, saltier intermediate water and cold, fresh Antarctic Surface Water results in a poleward transfer of heat and salt across the Polar Front zone.

  • Disrespect and Abuse During Facility-Based Childbirth in Southern
    Galle et al. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2019) 19:369 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12884-019-2532-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Disrespect and abuse during facility-based childbirth in southern Mozambique: a cross-sectional study Anna Galle1*, Helma Manaharlal2, Emidio Cumbane2, Joelma Picardo2, Sally Griffin2, Nafissa Osman2,3, Kristien Roelens1 and Olivier Degomme1 Abstract Background: Evidence suggests that many women experience mistreatment during childbirth in health facilities across the world, but the magnitude of the problem is unknown. The occurrence of disrespect and abuse (D&A) in maternity care services affects the overall quality of care and may undermine women’s trust in the health system. Studies about the occurrence of disrespect and abuse in Mozambican health facilities are scarce. The aim of this study was to explore the experience of women giving birth in hospital in different settings in Maputo City and Province, Mozambique. Methods: A cross sectional descriptive survey was conducted between April and June 2018 in the Central Hospital of Maputo (HCM) and district hospitals of Manhiça and Marracuene, Maputo Province, Mozambique. Five hundred seventy-two exit interviews were conducted with women leaving the hospital after delivery. The questionnaire consisted of the following components: socio-demographic characteristics, the occurrence of disrespect and abuse, male involvement during labor and childbirth and intrapartum family planning counselling and provision. Results: Prevalence of disrespect and abuse ranged from 24% in the central hospital to 80% in the district hospitals. The main types of D&A reported were lack of confidentiality/privacy, being left alone, being shouted at/scolded, and being given a treatment without permission.
