L’œuvre poétique de Dôvy est créée à partir de la poésie orale tsimihety. Elle quête de surprise en exploitant le flot d’image et de symboles tirés de la nature et de la société malgache pour transmettre un message sur d’un fait social. Sa poésie n’est plus donc déclamée comme dans son stade oral. L’objectif de cet article est de démonter la beauté de mode d’expression poétique de ce poète à partir de l'intertextualité de son œuvre avec le proverbe. Comment peut-on dégager la beauté de l’intertextualité de ces deux genres poétiques ? La beauté de son œuvre se trouve au niveau satirique par son usage de la métaphore et de l’image ironique qui amène son public dans une harmonie créée par le rire, car la poésie se mêle entre le vrai et la vraie semblance. Alors que dans l’aspect poétique de son œuvre, le poète essaie à impliquer son public passif contre la malhonnêteté et l’injustice sociale dans son pays.

Tout en constatant les particularités significatives de la construction Qui dit Noël dit cadeau, Kentaro Koga a lancé une série de recherches sur l’ensemble des infrastructures de cette construction, dans le but d’en révéler l’organisation interne et d’en dégager des variations lexicales et syntaxiques possibles. Cet article – « Qui dit Noël dit cadeau : modèle, variation et idées conventionnelles » – de Kentaro Koga, établi à partir de son propre recueil de données linguistiques, étudie les usages de la construction qui dit X dit Y dans la langue française aujourd’hui. Néanmoins, il semble que ses conclusions soient peu ou prou arbitraires, c’est la raison pour laquelle nous réétudierons cette construction sous d’autres angles herméneutiques. Enfin, nous proposerons, mutatis mutandis, de nouvelles thèses.

This article deals - on the one hand- with the aesthetics of the use of external correspondence in oral poetic discourse. The sample comes from the Souf region, considered as one of the strongholds of popular poetry in Algeria, whose meanings and words are extracted from various missing texts between popular poetry, the Holy Quran, the Hadith and sayings and proverbs. The fundamental problem in this use lies between the knowledge by the poets of the missing texts and their impact on them, and the similarity between the missing texts and the present texts without prior knowledge of the later poets.

The study tests and further develops a previously presented method for adjusting initial clouds in the HARMONIE mesoscale numerical weather prediction (NWP) model. The method uses satellite-observed cloud properties from the Nowcasting and very short range forecasting Satellite Application Facility (NWCSAF) together with ground-based synoptic stations (SYNOP) observations, adjusting the humidity profile of the model based on the available cloud information with the overall aim to improve the forecast, in particular as regards clouds and solar radiation. A reference set-up of the HARMONIE model is used as a baseline against which the cloud initialization experiments are compared. All HARMONIE experiments are run for July 2016, with a model run starting at 06Z each day. The HARMONIE outputs are compared with cloud fraction and solar radiation observations from groundbased stations, while satellite cloud observations are also used for inspecting the behaviour of the forecasts. The performance of other generally used verification parameters is also studied. The results as regards clouds are encouraging. Symmetrical extremal dependence index (SEDI) skill scores show improvement in initial cloud conditions in 84% and 74% of the cases, when evaluated for cloud-free (0–1 octas) and cloudy conditions (7–8 octas), respectively. The improvement lasts 2–4 hr into the forecast. Other parameters, however, show somewhat degraded skill as compared with the reference model run, while for solar radiation, the cloud initialization scheme exhibits somewhat ambiguous results. The distribution of solar radiation values is improved for relatively sunny conditions, while at the other end of the distribution, the cloud initialization scheme produces too many cases with relatively strongly attenuated radiation.

Faced with the current economies, characterised by a combination of complex factors, competitiveness of small and medium enterprises (SME) in countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo has become a necessity for the the sustainability of the private sector. In spite of the prevalence of family businesses in several countries in the sub-Saharan Africa and their proven role in developing economies, operational issues of familiarism and performance are not still clearly elucidated in the context of SME family businesses, nor submitted to the stock market. The objective of this study was to elucidate and operationalise the “ family effect “and” performance “ in the context of SME which are not subjected to the stock market as perceived by family entrepreneurs. Applying the inter-site comparison case study method on the basis of semi-structured interviews organised with 32 family entrepreneurs from two towns and two cities in the provinces of North and South Kivu in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the results indicate that, apart from the deeply modified family effect indicators, the dimensions of the construct are identical to previous works. Meanwhile, the performance perceived by economic operators greatly diverges from theoretical considerations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Diversity is part of what we call being human. We need an integrated crosscultural approach to ethics. We should never expect all people to balance the same values in the same way all the time. Nevertheless, there are numerous benefits if the same values, or principles, can be used by all people and societies. All human beings are found as members of some society but all accommodate some individualism within a social niche. All societies have ethical norms and some system of ethics. Any international ethical approach to assisting people and systems to making bioethical decisions must consider the biological, social and spiritual origins of humanity. In this fashion, the focus of this article is to address the fundamental question of whether or not a common ethical system could be accepted and applied universally as well as what consequences this could have for biolaw.

Most of the effects caused by fog are negative for humans. Yet, numerical weather prediction (NWP) models still have problems to simulate fog properly, especially in operational forecasts. In the case of radiation fog, this is partially caused by the large sensitivity to many aspects, such as the synoptic and local conditions, the near-surface turbulence, the aerosol and droplet microphysics, or the surface characteristics, among others. This work focuses on an interesting 8-day period with several alternating radiation and cloud-base lowering (CBL) fog events observed at the Research Centre for the Lower Atmosphere (CIBA) in the Spanish Northern Plateau. On the one hand, radiation fog events are associated with strong surface cooling leading to high stability close to the surface and low values of turbulence, giving rise to shallow fog. The evolution of this type of fog is markedly sensitive to the dynamical conditions close to the surface (i.e., wind speed and turbulence). On the other hand, CBL fog presents deeper thickness associated with higher values of turbulence and less stability. Subsequently, we evaluated the fog-forecasting skill of two mesoscale models (WRF and HARMONIE) configured as similar as possible. Both models present more difficulties simulating radiation fog events than CBL ones. However, the duration and vertical extension of the CBL fog events is normally overestimated. This extended-fog avoids the surface radiative cooling needed to simulate radiation fog events formed the following nights. Therefore, these periods with alternating CBL and radiation fog are especially challenging for NWP models. • Radiation fog features are different from those of cloud-base lowering fog. • Periods with alternating CBL and radiation fog present additional difficulties for models. • Shallow radiation fog remains as a challenge for NWP models. • The fog forecasting skill of models should be done separately for each event.

Hispano-American modernism, the period of the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, brings about a major renewal of literary creation, which allows a self-confident and decisive input of this region's literatures into modernity. The article briefly examines the key moments of this renewal, based on the search for beauty and harmony and the desire for a perfect rhythm of the language to reflect the rhythm of the universe; it also points out the connection with the incoming avant-garde.

This paper offers the first ever published discussion of the ethical treatise Harmonie: Versuch einer monistischen Ethik [Harmony: an attempt at a monistic ethics] by Heinrich Schmidt (1874–1935), one of the leading figures in the circle of Ernst Haeckel. Published near the end of Schmidt's life (1931), it constituted a kind of summation of decades of intense involvement in the "project" of German monism that found its epicentre in Jena, and in Haeckel's attempts at founding it on Darwinian and Goethian lines. After a brief description of Schmidt's life and works, we summarize the main lines of Haeckel's evolutionary thought and their expression in his sparse ethical writings. A detailed description of Harmonie follows, in which we seek to demonstrate Schmidt's close adherence to Haeckel's monist foundations, as well as indicate where he expanded his own thinking in directions beyond Haeckel's. Lastly, we suggest that Harmonie, perhaps contrary to Schmidt's wishes after 1933, nevertheless offers textual evidence of the deep incompatibility of Schmidt's understanding of ethics to the sociopolitical ideology of National Socialism. This is consistent with the historical record of how Haeckel's monism, together with those like Schmidt who worked tirelessly to promote it, was negatively regarded by the NSDAP.

Des milliers de personnes tentent l’aventure communautaire et le mouvement s’amplifie au cours du xixe siècle. Ces utopies concrètes, intentionnelles et/ou expérimentales, appelées colonies, milieux libres ou phalanstères, essaiment dans le monde entier, mais l’Amérique latine est un domaine particulièrement touché, autant pour des raisons réelles que mythifiées. La nécessité, mais aussi l’enthousiasme et la force de l’idéal, sont les grandes raisons qui amènent les gens à traverser l’Atlantique ou à circuler à travers tout le continent américain. La réalité est souvent âpre et les rapports humains conflictuels. L’harmonie rêvée laisse la place à la désillusion et aux antagonismes. La plupart des communautés ont une durée de vie courte et l’échec global semble patent. Les causes sont multiples et montrent que le milieu utopique n’arrive pas vraiment à s’émanciper de l’autoritarisme et du capitalisme qu’ils essaient pourtant de contrer. Mais le phénomène renaît constamment, sous des formes variées, surtout depuis le début du xxie siècle, alors que certaines communautés anciennes sortent du lot commun et réussissent à perdurer ou à changer de forme.

There are well-known difficulties to run numerical weather prediction (NWP) and climate models at resolutions traditionally referred to as ‘grey-zone’ (~3–8 km) where deep convection is neither completely resolved by the model dynamics nor completely subgrid. In this study, we describe the performance of an operational NWP model, HARMONIE, in a climate setting (HCLIM), run at two different resolutions (6 and 15 km) for a 10-yr period (1998–2007). This model has a convection scheme particularly designed to operate in the ‘grey-zone’ regime, which increases the realism and accuracy of the time and spatial evolution of convective processes compared to more traditional parametrisations. HCLIM is evaluated against standard observational data sets over Europe as well as high-resolution, regional, observations. Not only is the regional climate very well represented but also higher order climate statistics and smaller scale spatial characteristics of precipitation are in good agreement with observations. The added value when making climate simulations at ~5 km resolution compared to more typical regional climate model resolutions is mainly seen for the very rare, high-intensity precipitation events. HCLIM at 6 km resolution reproduces the frequency and intensity of these events better than at 15 km resolution and is in closer agreement with the high-resolution observations.

ABSTRACT The 10 m-wind over flat terrain in models is often lower than observations indicate. Here we show that this negative bias is mainly caused by the larger roughness lengths that models use than the World Meteorological Organisation ( WMO)-advised roughness length of short grass (0.03 m). The concept of potential wind, which transforms the original wind to the theoretical wind under the assumption of a local roughness of 0.03 m, is well suited to distinguish this effect from other causes. It shows that the yearly averaged bias in Hirlam Aladin Research on Meso-scale Operational NWP (numerical weather prediction) in Euromed ( HARMONIE) is largely due to roughness effects. The year-to-year variations are caused by misrepresentations of the weather situations by HARMONIE. This can be concluded from the analysis of the geostrophic wind, which is insensitive for roughness effects. Although the yearly averaged potential wind speed is well represented, HARMONIE reveals a strong seasonal cycle in the bias, being too low in summer, and slightly too high in winter. This is mainly caused by a too strong seasonal cycle in the representation of the leaf area index. The HARMONIE data set points out to underestimate the average wind over The Netherlands up to 10% in the period before 1995. Even after correction for roughness effects, an underestimation of 6% remains. It is likely that the disappearance of the bias after 1995 is caused by the gradually improved quality of the ERA-Interim data set with time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The mass, momentum and energy fluxes between the atmosphere and ocean surface depend on the state of the ocean surface. The fluxes in turn can significantly alter the nature of the marine boundary layer and the state of the ocean surface. These interactions can be modelled deterministically using a multiphase modelling approach or using a semi-stochastic approach. While the multiphase approach can give better insights (e.g. wave generation), it is computationally too expensive and not suited for modelling ocean waves which are inherently random in nature. It is for this reason that in a forecasting context, semi-stochastic approach is still the workhorse. Furthermore, even in a semi-stochastic approach ocean and atmospheric models can be coupled in either unidirectional way (ocean affecting the atmosphere) or bidirectional way (both ocean and atmosphere affecting each other). Current work compares the performance of these two coupling approaches and validates them using significant wave heights and 10m wind magnitude. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Gaussian dispersion model AEROPOL is validated against the Cabauw (1977-1978) dataset, applying the parameters and rules from the Model Validation Kit. The purpose to revisit this experiment is preparation for fast response to buoyant accidental releases. In the AEROPOL model, the classical Pasquill-Gifford stability and a scheme based on Lagrangian time scales (the Gryning scheme) are used as alternatives. Validation is based on correlation, fractional bias, fractional sigma, NMSE and fraction in factor 2, applying these statistics to maximal arc-wise, near-centreline and cross-wind integrated concentrations. Both parameterisations are found to be fairly adequate. The Gryning scheme results in moderately underestimated concentrations, which are well correlated with the experimental ones. The Pasquill parameterisation, in contrast, represents the concentrations well on average, but with larger scatter. The average wind direction and speed between the lowest measurement level and release level are found to be good approximations to represent the position of the Gaussian plume.

In dem ersten Teil dieses Texts wird zuerst eine Analyse von Kants Begriffen des Zweckmäßigkeit und Harmonie und ihren Verhältnisse miteinander, so wie mit dem Gefühl der Lust, unternommen werden. Diese Analyse wird mit Bezug auf Shaftesbury Ansicht auf die, heutige sogenannte, „Affektionen zweiter Ordnung“ und ihre Bedeutung in der sozialen und politischen Philosophie betrachten werden. Abschließend dieser erste Teil beschäftigt sich mit Kants Konzeption der sensus communis, und versucht einige sei­ner Besonderheiten hinzuweisen, die ermöglichen, sensus communis nicht als eine empirische Tatsache anzunehmen. Im zweiten Teil der Arbeit wird versucht werden, die Position der sensus communis in Kants politische - Philosophie und - Situation hinzuweisen, und einige Auswirkungen, die daraus abgeleitet werden könnten.

This reflection stems from an exchange with palliative care workers who expressed their difficulties in synchronizing with their patients. On the one hand, time is focused on action, on the other, on waiting. How can we provide care when time is lacking and eludes us? We can first recognize in the difference and the gap the foundations of the caring relationship. The presence of these bodies, those of caregivers and those of patients, allows us to create a bond that, in the moment, resists the distinct temporalities., (Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Masson SAS.
