ABSTRACT

The Endangered Archaeology in the Middle East and North Africa (EAMENA) project based at the Universities of Oxford, Leicester, and Durham uses remote sensing to record archaeological and cultural heritage landscapes across twenty countries from Morocco to Iran and from Syria to Yemen. The project has developed an online heritage database built by adapting the open-source Arches heritage inventory platform developed by the Getty Conservation Institute and the World Monuments Fund. This paper discusses the process of customization of Arches v.3 adopted by EAMENA, particularly with regard to the development of new CIDOC CRM resource data models, reference data, and modifications to the Arches codebase.  相似文献

This paper examines long-term water and resource management in Saskatchewan. Agriculture has long sustained Saskatchewan's economy, but the province experienced a resource boom in oil and potash in the 2008–2015 time period. What potential water-related risks are posed by oil and potash? And is the province able to balance the short-term economic gains of these developments with the long-term goal of water security? The research is based on interviews with policy elites in the province of Saskatchewan and argues that four factors explain why the government continues to favour industry over water security: low-issue salience, economic and political interest, ideology, and political culture.  相似文献

Instead of the conventional approach to sectioning tooth dentine horizontally for isotope analysis, a new serial sampling strategy has been developed recently. This new method considers the developmental direction of growth lines in dentine when samples are sectioned. It can therefore provide more precise and detailed information about an individual's dietary history, including breastfeeding/weaning patterns, infant feeding experiences, and dietary shifts throughout the early life of an individual. In order to enhance our understanding of human groups in ancient Sichuan, it is practical and necessary to apply this new technique to archaeological samples from this region. In this study, carbon and nitrogen isotope compositions of bone and serial dentinal collagen from two Yingpanshan human individuals (M32 and M40) were analysed and compared, in order to reveal the dietary history during their lifetime. Results indicate that their long‐term averaged diets after childhood consisted of both C₃ and C₄‐type foods, predominantly the former. The contribution of animal protein to the childhood diet of individual M40, between the ages of 3.0 and 7.5, was similar to his long‐term averaged diet after childhood. He had also consumed more millets during the childhood. By comparison, individual M32 consumed more animal protein and likely also more C₃‐type foods between the ages of 4.5 and 13.5 than after childhood. Little variations in δ¹⁵N dentinal collagen of each individual suggest that the relative consumption of animal to plant foods in their respective diets was more or less consistent in their childhood. However, the larger variations in the δ¹³C values of dentine samples show that the proportion of C₃ and C₄‐plant foods in their respective diets varied at different phases in their childhood. The variations are probably related to environmental factors and/or human behaviour. The dietary history and weaning practices revealed by using this technique also indicate that the two individuals might have been non‐locals or received some foods that originated from the outside.  相似文献

This media history article uses the development of the British Broadcasting Corporation's Arabic radio broadcasting service in 1938 as a case study for considering the intersections and overlaps between transnationalism and imperialism in the early mid‐20th century. Archival evidence suggests that the British Broadcasting Corporation's Arabic broadcasting service, which was based in London, relied for human resources, programming, and other forms of expertise on the Palestine Broadcasting Service in Jerusalem and the Egyptian State Broadcasting Service in Cairo—as well as on British government officials in those countries. Yet scholarly literature on these stations tends to treat them as free‐standing institutions with minimal interaction. How might recent scholarship on entangled media histories productively problematize the treatment of radio histories as institutional histories within nation‐state boundaries? How might it capture both the transnational and the colonial or imperial connections of these stations? It closes by suggesting how this case study might be useful for scholars working in other arenas.  相似文献

Integrated water resources optimization models (IWROM) are tools that have been developed over the last decade for determining optimal water allocations among competing sectors. This article describes the state of the art of IWROMs. We illustrate the various approaches that have been taken to determine and maximize economic benefits of withdrawing water for various use categories in IWROM applications, including off‐stream human uses and in‐stream uses such as ecological flows. First, we describe the hydrologic simulators used in IWROM applications, and the mathematical methods used to solve the optimization problems. It is suggested that IWROMs (a) seek to model coupled human–nature relationships and mimic the impact of water resources management strategies on the environment at the basin scale; (b) allow for the simulation and assessment of economic policies and strategies on water resources management; (c) can support basin‐wide decision‐making; and (d) are particularly useful for water‐scarce regions. Finally, we have identify the need for improvements in (a) simulating biophysical systems; (b) handling model uncertainty; (c) inclusion of environmental flows and other relevant environmental factors through economic benefit functions; (d) accounting for social impacts related to shifts in water allocations among users; and (e) inclusion of stakeholders in the development of IWROMs.  相似文献
