Solar radiation, which is used in hydrological modeling, agricultural, solar energy systems, and climatological studies, the most important element of reaching earth. The present study compared, performance two empirical equations -Angstrom Hargreaves-Samani equations- and, three machine learning models -Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Long Short-Term Memory (LST...

The assessment of second language (L2) speaking has long been an important yet challenging area of research in language testing. L2 testers are often concerned with designing authentic speaking tasks that resemble real-life speaking activities so that score interpretations are generalizable to non-test contexts. The conversational nature of speaking skills has promoted the widespread integratio...

Henriksson et al. (2010), hereafter HALTL10, criticize Annan and Hargreaves (2006a) (AH06) primarily on the grounds that we assumed that different sources of data were conditionally independent given the climate sensitivity. While we consider this approximation to have been a reasonable one under the circumstances (and provided arguments to justify this approach), we also acknowledged its impor...

In 2020, the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic forced teachers in Ontario to move online. Since then, teaching online or hybrid models has been common across province. To understand how French as a Second Language (FSL) navigated these spaces, four were interviewed about their experience using educational technology and Findings analyzed light of Hargreaves Fullan’s (2020) reframing classic under...

16 Solar radiation is an important climatic variable for assessing reference evapotranspiration 17 (E0), but it is seldom available in weather station records. Meteosat satellite images processed 18 with the Heliosat-2 method provide the HelioClim-1 database, which displays spatialized 19 solar radiation data at a daily time step for Europe and Africa. The aim of the present work 20 was to inve...

Sir, We were interested to read the observations of Cole and Hargreaves (1972) on Conjugation Inhibitors and Early Neonatal Hyperbilirubinaemia. We, also, were unable to find a correlation between the serum bilirubin concentration in breastfed, 6-day-old infants and conjugation inhibitors in the mother's milk (Arthur, Bevan, and Holton, 1966). However, it would be wrong to conclude that breast ...

This research presented the narration of students’ emotions when microteaching practice. By using narrative inquiry method, this showed they faced challenges in teaching English performance course. Based on five students' reflections, we took data and then analyzed them thematic analysis method. The result was related to emotional geography theory by Andy Hargreaves. result, researchers found t...

This research reported on English pre-service teachers’ (henceforth PSTs) emotional dynamics during their teaching practicum in Indonesian schools. Research data were collected from retrospective reflections and stimulated recall with ten PSTs. Deploying Hargreaves’ (2001a) geography, the sought to portray PSTs’ understandings misunderstandings resulting engagement school community. study also ...

The aim of this study was to analyze the water demand in banana, papaya and coconut crops grown irrigation districts Araras Norte Baixo Acaraú, located State Ceará. A historical meteorological series regions where from are used. Precipitation, maximum minimum temperatures, relative humidity data were obtained these series. From acquired precipitation data, frequency intensity dry rainy years ar...
