SOUTHERN CONTINENT MYSTERY Chapter 1: Antarctica - Southern Continent Antarctica (Opposite the Arctic) is the southern continent of the Earth, with an average surface altitude of more than 2,000 m above sea level and a center altitude of 4,000 m above sea level. Most of this altitude is a permanent ice cover, under which the continental relief is hidden, and only about 5% of its area is free of ice - mainly in Western Antarctica and the Trans-Antarctic Mountains: islands, parts of the coast, "dry valleys" and some ridges and mountain peaks (nunataki) that rise above the ice surface. The Trans-Antarctic Mountains, which cross almost the entire continent, divide Antarctica into two parts - the Western and Eastern, with different origins and geological structure. In the east there is a high (the highest elevation of the ice surface about 4,100 meters above sea level), covered with ice plateau. The western part consists of a group of mountainous islands connected to each other by ice. On the Pacific coast there are the Antarctic Andes, the height of which exceeds 4,000 meters; the highest point of the continent - 4,892 meters above sea level - massif Vinson Sentinel Ridge. Western Antarctica also has the deepest depression of the continent - the Bentley Depression, probably of rift origin. Its depth, filled with ice, reaches 2,555 meters below sea level. The glacier cover of Antarctica is now 1,720 meters thick on average. It was found that this coverage of the continent with ice was gradual. Scientists estimate that it began 35 million years ago, starting with the massive eastern part of the continent, and ended in 4,000 BC. When the glacier crawled forever to the last meters of land on the western tip of the Queen Maud Land and the Antarctic Peninsula. 3 There is an opinion that Antarctica is completely covered with snow and ice. But this is not completely correct. Yes, only 5% of the entire surface of the continent is free of snow and ice, but they are approximately 2.5x105 km2. As a rule, near the edge of the continent, a significant part of them is near the Russian stations Mirny and Novolazarevskaya, as well as along the Trans-Antarctic Mountains, which, as an extension of the Andean Mountains of Latin America, is like a dorsal ridge of the continent, stretching from Cape Ader, south of New Zealand, along the western coast of the sea Rossa and crossing almost the entire continent. In the Trans-Antarctic Mountains the largest (4 000 km2) ice-free areas have been found - "Oasis McMurdo" and "Dry Valley Area", located near the stations of New Zealand and the USA. The topography of these ice- free valleys is one of the most beautiful on Earth. The McMurdo Oasis consists of three deep, ice-free valleys, each almost 100 km long and 2 to 5 km wide, which used to be also under the glacier, as evidenced by the moraines left by the glacier. At the bottom of the valleys there are lakes that freeze for most of the year except for a short period in summer. Above the valleys rise sharp peaks of 2,000 - 3,000 m high, most of them are ice-free. From the high valleys between these peaks, small glaciers flow down the slopes. In some places, they move along the very bottom of the valleys. The valleys are dotted with cave dunes and rock outcrops, the color of which is a shade of brown - from light brown, long airborne granite to dark red basalt. Individual stones have shades of gray. These colors contrast with white glaciers and bright blue skies. Due to the lack of vegetation, there is no green color here. Similar areas of free land with small lakes and small heights have been found in the coastal areas of the Banger oasis near the Mirny station. 4 The "Dry Valleys" are to the west of the McMurdo Valley and are named because of their extremely low humidity and lack of snow and ice cover, as moisture evaporates under the action of powerful winds reaching speeds of 320 km/h. In some areas of this region, it has not rained for two million years. Scientists believe that the Dry Valleys are more like Mars than any other terrestrial environment, so here are often trained astronauts NASA. On their territory, American astronauts were trained before landing on the moon in 1969. The soil of Antarctica is suitable for growing crops. It has reserves of non-windy and partially weathered minerals that increase fertility. Experiments have shown that the soil of Antarctica, transferred to normal temperatures, suitable for plant growth. Even grow salad or radish. Antarctica is also associated with a major discovery in oceanology. As it turned out, the ice continent is in the center of a giant ocean vortex (Antarctic Circumpolar Current), which is several times more powerful than the Gulf Stream and Kurosivo combined. It is believed that the forces supporting the action of this global whirl are the western winds prevailing in these latitudes (the so-called "Western Wind Drift", West Wind Current). The water here moves in a clockwise direction, from west to east, between 40° and 50°S. (so-called "roaring forties"), a length of up to 30 thousand km with a width of up to 1 thousand km, its thickness reaches 4-5 km (in some areas, the flow includes the entire mass of water to the ocean floor; water temperature in the upper layer varies from 12-15 ° C in the northern part to 1-2 ° C in the southern part of the current; in the surface layer of ocean water flow rate varies from 0.4 to 0.9 km / h, in the deep layer is up to 0.4 km / h). From this current there are the following branches: in the Atlantic Ocean - the Falkland Current, the Bengel Current (appears to the south of the Cape of Good Hope and goes to the north, reaches the Namibia area in Africa); in the Indian Ocean - the West Australian Current; in the Pacific Ocean - the Peruvian Current. The waters washed by Antarctica are called the Southern (or Antarctic) Ocean, which has no clearly delineated islands and continents of the northern border (accepted as the 60th degree of southern latitude) and consists of 13 seas. Scientists have not yet definitively figured out whether this name should be applied to all geographic maps: the Southern Ocean was first distinguished in 1650 by the Dutch geographer Benhard Varenius and included both the "southern continent" not yet discovered by Europeans and all areas above the southern polar circle; the Royal Geographical Society in London since 1845. In publications of the International Hydrographic Organization the Southern Ocean was separated from the Atlantic, Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean in 1937; in the Soviet tradition (1969) the approximate boundary of the conditional "Southern Ocean" was considered to be the Antarctic convergence zone (the northern boundary of Antarctic surface waters), near 55° south latitude. In other countries, the boundary is 5 also blurred - the latitude south of Cape Horn, the boundary of floating ice, the Antarctic Convention Zone (an area south of the 60th parallel of southern latitude); the Australian government considers the "Southern Ocean" as water located directly south of the Australian continent. In winter, the Southern Ocean freezes to 65 degrees South latitude in the Pacific sector and 55 degrees South latitude in the Atlantic sector, lowering surface temperatures well below 0 C; in some coastal locations, constant strong winds leave the coastline free of ice during the winter. Sailors of latitude from 40 to 70 degrees south latitude, since the era of

  • An Exploratory Study on Origin of AI: Journey Through the Ancient Indian Texts & Other Technological Descriptions, Its Past, Present & Future
    An Exploratory Study On Origin Of AI: Journey Through The Ancient Indian Texts & Other Technological Descriptions, Its Past, Present & Future Turkish Online Journal of Qualitative Inquiry (TOJQI) Volume 12, Issue 7, July 2021: 6527- 6555 Research Article An Exploratory Study On Origin Of AI: Journey Through The Ancient Indian Texts & Other Technological Descriptions, Its Past, Present & Future Mrinmoy Roy PhD Scholar Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, Punjab Abstract For the modern world and our present civilization the invention of the first programmable digital computer taken place in the 1940s, a machine based on mathematical reasoning, this knowledge & ideas inspired few scientists to seriously think of building Artificial Intelligence. The modern world also knows that a British Polymath, Alan Turing in the year 1950, suggested the concept of decision science, artificial intelligence and machines solving the real world problems. The first commercial, digital & programmable robot was made by Geroge Devol in 1954, the field of AI research was founded at a workshop held on the campus of Dartmouth College during the summer of 1956. But modern world is not aware of the origin of Artificial Intelligence (AI) began back in 8000 to 11000 years, with myths, stories and rumors of artificial beings endowed with intelligence or consciousness by ancient Rishis of India. The seeds of modern AI were planted by classical philosophers who attempted to describe the process of human thinking as the mechanical manipulation of symbols. This work culminated through Knowledge and ideas on many of the technological advancement that we are witnessing today had already been articulated in holy books of Hinduism like The Ramayana, The Mahabharata, The Bhagawatgeeta, The Vedas & Upanishads which were believed to be written 5000 to 8000 years ago (3000 BC – 6000 BC).

Yvon Wang University of Toronto [email protected] Abstract This article is an exploration of media and gender in urban and peri-urban China dur- ing the 1950s and early 1960s – specifically, the persistent trope of the “hooligan,” or liumang. Since at least the late imperial period, Chinese authorities had feared unmar- ried, impoverished, rootless men as the main source of crime, disorder, and outright rebellion. Yet such figures were simultaneously celebrated as knights-errant for their violent heroism in cultural works of enormous popularity across regions and classes. As the ruling Chinese Communist Party attempted to reshape society and culture after 1949, it condemned knight-errant tales and made hooliganism a crime. At the same time, the state tried to promote a new pantheon of vigilante-like men in the guise of revolutionary heroes. But the state’s control over deeply rooted cultural markets and their products was incomplete. Moreover, the same potent tools that had empowered the Party, in particular its rhetoric of revolutionary subjectivity and its harnessing of modern media technologies, were open as never before to being adopted by the very targets of its efforts at control and censure.

  • First Record of the Moon Crab Ashtoret Lunaris (Forskål 1775) from Turkish Waters
    J. Black Sea/Mediterranean Environment Vol. 21, No. 3: 328-333 (2015) SHORT COMMUNICATION First record of the moon crab Ashtoret lunaris (Forskål 1775) from Turkish waters Cemal Turan1*, Ali Uyan1, Deniz Ergüden1, Mevlüt Gürlek1, Servet A. Dogdu1, Necdet Uygur2 1Marine Sciences and Technology Faculty, Iskenderun Technical University, TR31220 Iskenderun, Hatay, TURKEY 2Maritime Vocational School, Iskenderun Technical University, Iskenderun, Hatay, TURKEY *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The first record of the moon crab Ashtoret lunaris (Forskål 1775) is reported for the Turkish waters. Four specimens of A. lunaris were captured in Iskenderun Bay, Northeastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey at depth about 17m by gill net on 18 August 2015. The moon crab is the first non-native crab from the family Matutidae established in the Turkish coast. Keywords: Moon crab, Ashtoret lunaris, first record, Turkish waters, lessepsian migrant The Levantine upper shelf biota has an ever increasing component of Erythraean aliens (Galil 2012). The number of lessepsian species has increased especially during the last decade in Turkish marine waters (Özcan et al. 2010; Turan and Yaglioglu 2011; Yaglioglu et al. 2014). Decapod crustaceans are well represented (Galil 2011): some penaeid and portunid species have established flourishing populations, highly prized and considered a boon to the Levantine fisheries (Galil 2007), while a few species are only known from a single record. The crab family Matutidae contains a distinctive group of predatory crabs with adaptions for swimming or digging. Often referred to as moon crabs, some 15 species placed in four genera are recognized from the family (Ng et al. 2008; De Grave et al.

  • Reimagining Riben Guizi: Japanese Tactical Media Performance After the 2010 Senkaku/Diaoyu Boat Collision Incident
    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 344–362 1932–8036/20170005 Reimagining Riben Guizi: Japanese Tactical Media Performance After the 2010 Senkaku/Diaoyu Boat Collision Incident YASUHITO ABE1 Doshisha University, Japan This article investigates a Japanese online participatory community, the Hinomoto Oniko project, that emerged after the Senkaku/Diaoyu boat collision incident of 2010 in the East China Sea. Drawing on tactical media as a conceptual framework, this study analyzes how the project challenged the prevailing meaning of a Chinese slur against the Japanese via tactical use of visual media and examines how its cultural and aesthetic performances were reproduced in the Japanese media landscape. This facilitates analysis of the implications of its cultural and aesthetic performances in a networked era. Keywords: tactical media, moe, history, Japan, China This study examines a Japanese online participatory community that emerged in Japan after the Senkaku/Diaoyu boat collision incident of 2010 in the East China Sea: the Hinomoto Oniko project. The project remade a Chinese term into various images of that term though visual media; specifically, the Hinomoto Oniko project transformed the pronunciation of the Chinese term into a Japanese reading and substituted cartoon-like characters for the term. In doing so, the project sought to create an alternative space for communication between Japanese and Chinese people, albeit briefly. The project did not necessarily succeed in making the most of an opportunity for promoting communication between Japanese and Chinese people, but the project highlights the characteristic of tactical media performance in East Asia. The Chinese term temporarily disrupted by the Hinomoto Oniko project is 日本鬼子 (Riben Guizi), which originally meant “Japanese are devils” in Chinese.
