Abstract

Simple Summary: This work addressed the age-old problem of buffalo brucellosis in the province of Caserta; this infection has repercussions both on public health (disease transmissible to humans) and on the economy of the DOP (Protected Designation of Origin) buffalo mozzarella dairy supply chain. This disease has persisted for years in the Caserta area, and numerous resources have been invested but to no avail. The aim of the work was to identify the main causes of the persistence of the contagion in order to act on them and improve the use of public funds. The study showed that the infection persists in the same companies and that it has most likely never moved away from them and is always present in the same areas where the companies are close to each other, and the disease has spread from one company to another due to the absence of disease surveillance and quarantine measures. In fact, companies that have had a previous history of infection and/or are close to other infected companies have a greater probability of contracting the infection. Bovine and bubaline brucellosis is still present in some regions of Italy. Although control and eradication measures have been implemented for several years, the brucellosis situation remains problematic in the Campania region. The infection is present in the provinces of Salerno and Caserta, with the latter experiencing a drastic increase in the prevalence and incidence of infection in buffalo species (Bubalus bubalis) in recent years. The brucellosis eradication plan in Italy is subject to the European co-financing system, and failure to achieve the objectives of the plan has resulted in economic cuts for the Campania Region for years. This study aimed to evaluate the possible risk factors associated with the spread and persistence of brucellosis infection on buffalo farms in the Province of Caserta. The results of official controls carried out from 2015 to 2020 on the buffalo farms of the Province were analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed by means of the R software (version 4.1.0) on a final dataset consisting of 4583 observations. The possible association between covariates and outcome (presence/absence of infection) was evaluated (T-Fisher and Wilcoxon). A logistic regression model with mixed effects was carried out. The study shows that the risk of infection is statistically associated with the density of farms per square km and previous notifications of abortions on the same farms. Furthermore, animal movements constitute a risk factor for the permanence of infection over time (OR > 1), and herds already infected prior to 2015 were seen to have an almost three-fold higher risk of developing the disease (OR = 3.35).

32. The Demise of a Rescue Mission.

Author

Aronson, Shlomo

Abstract

More sophisticated than Brand's or Schwarz's interrogations was the evaluation of both missions made by Reuben B. Resnik, an AJDC representative in Istanbul who was associated with the WRB's effort in Turkey. Resnik met with Brand upon his arrival in Istanbul and also had his connections with members of the Va'ada in Budapest. In his report, prepared at the request of Ambassador Laurence Steinhardt, Resnik – a wise man – expressed his impression that Brand: … was not as sincere and straight-forward as other observers thought him to be. He had ready and direct answers for all questions and was apparently very cooperative and reiterated on several occasions the seriousness with which he was carrying out his mission. It is important … to observe that Brand is not completely without anxiety and fear about his assignment and its possible consequences. This description reflects one who initiated or accepted Laufer's mission, and thereby made the Allies and the Zionists seemingly responsible from then on for the fate of the Hungarian Jews, pending his own personal success in that mission. Resnik mentioned “interviews and conferences” he held with persons “who have had close contact with Mr. Brand during his visit in Istanbul and while he was a resident in Budapest.” Resnik's “possible interpretations” of both missions (he never met Grosz) are rather penetrating.

33. The Intelligence Services and Rescue Options.

Author

Aronson, Shlomo

Abstract

The discussion of intelligence services on the Allied and the German sides (after all, the Gestapo and SD were among other things intelligence-gathering agencies) in this book assumed its central role due to the covert nature of hoped-for cooperation between the Zionists and other Jewish organizations working for rescue once experienced Jewish leaders such as David Ben-Gurion had realized that overt action by the Allies had many limits due to the menace of a “Jew's war,” which the Allies intended to avoid by all means at their disposal unless domestic opinion imposed such an action upon them. At the same time, Nazi and Allied intelligence gathered information on the Holocaust, on rescue efforts, and on the Zionists and other Jewish organizations that were supposed to cooperate with them. This information led also to various actions that contributed their share to the workings of the doomsday machine. In comparison to the regular bureaucracies, such as the British Foreign and Colonial Offices, which had adopted a rather anti-Zionist policy since the late 1930s that was followed by the politicians heading them on cabinet level but not Churchill himself, and in comparison to the General Officer Commanding in Chief (GOC in C) Middle East, who always feared an Arab revolt in his back yard, MI6, or the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) (i.e., the British Foreign Intelligence Service), was a little more open to the rescue of Jews and to Zionist overtures as far as activities planned against the Axis powers were concerned.

Abstract

This study attempts to assess the aquifer vulnerability in the northeastern sector of the Campania Plain (southern Italy). The area is a highly populated region with anthropic impacts caused by rapid urban growth, quarrying, agricultural and industrial activities and uncontrolled waste storage. The main geologic feature of this plain is the alternation of alluvial/transitional and volcaniclastic deposits of Late Pleistocene-Holocene age. The study was performed integrating different sets of geologic and environmental data to restore the stratigraphic architecture and to assess anthropic impacts on subsoil. The reconstruction of stratigraphic subsurface architecture was based on remarkable geodatabase, concerning well log stratigraphies. Specific insights have been delineated on the volcaniclastic lithofacies heteropies across the entire area of study to highlight the differences in lithification degree and permeability. The contribution of pedogenesis on the reconstruction of the stratigraphic setting was also considered for the relative implications on groundwater quality concerns, as paleosols are usually regarded as aquitards. All of this information has been managed into a GIS project to produce a detailed 3D geological reconstruction, integrated with hydrogeological information to provide a model of the aquifer under study, highlighting sites of greater vulnerability to pollution. The anthropic impacts on subsoil were assessed by evaluating land-uses and overlaying the ANHI (Agricultural Nitrate Hazard Index) Map. The integration of the above datasets has allowed to check the reliability of the previsional empirical model with respect to the hydrostratigraphic model based on a thorough stratigraphic model and to verify the real potential of contamination.

Abstract

The representation of a place is becoming one of the most important research issues in the Geographic Information System (GIS) and in the participatory cartography (Hobel, Fogliaroni and Frank, 2016). As well known, in behavioural geography a mental map represents the personal perception of the surrounding geographical space (Lynch, 1960; Gould and White, 1974). Usually, these maps are very simple, so everyone can create them. The recent rise of internet and the advent of Web2.0 may mean, among others, the possibility for everyone to map. This is a sort of "revolution" in the cartography production, so now the geospatial data are often collected by people taking part in the generation of Volunteered Geographic Information, well known also as VGI (Goodchild, 2007). OpenStreetMap (OSM) is probably the most famous of these cartographic projects. Started in the UK in the early 2000s, now it provides free topographic maps at global scale (Ramm et al., 2011). Thus, in just a few decades, we have gone from mental maps to being able to collaborate on participative maps online (Panek, 2016). However, how much could knowledge of our living region affects the results of our online mapping activities? Namely, how much is important the personal perception of surrounding space in participatory cartography? This research focuses on cultural heritage to recognize its important role in both local community identity (as "common identity heritage") and the tourism industry. In a region particularly rich in such unique features such as Campania Region (South Italy), awareness of its own identity heritage is sometimes lacking, leading to its degradation and neglect. The aim of this research is to investigate about the differences between the VGI of OSM and an official cartography of cultural heritage in the historical centre of Caserta, an important urban area of the Campania. This town is best known in Italy and abroad for its Royal Palace, a former royal residence built in the XVIII Century by the House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies and now one of the most visited monuments in Italy. Our sources of data are the cultural heritage risk map realized by the "Istituto Centrale per il Restauro del Ministero della cultura" (ICR) (High Institute for Conservation and Restoration, Ministry of Culture) and the PostgreSQL database of OSM. The first is a GIS project about Italian cultural heritage to assess the risk due to their state of preservation and the characteristics of the territory within they are (Bartolomucci, Cacace, 2008). Since the end of 2020, the General Directorate for Security of the Ministry of Culture manages the project. Currently the webGIS of the ICR map is freely available on http://www.cartadelrischio.beniculturali.it The OSM database, instead, is resulting from activities of VGI mapping geoinformation such as points or lines and polygons. The key component of OSM is its main database, which contains tables for each element type, where the attribute information of each object is referred to as a 'tag' (Ramm et al., 2011). Starting from the recent municipal urban plan of Caserta (Bottaro et al., 2017), we defined the border of the historical center of this town. We use this area to automatically extract the georeferenced data from ICR map and from the OMS database. In this last case, we use a QGIS plugin - QuickOSM plugin - to set up queries on the OSM database about buildings, areas, sites, monuments, churches and fountains. Then we compare our results to outline main differences between the official map (ICR map) and the crowdsourcing data of OSM. In detail, we examined the spatial distribution of cultural heritage in the study area and what is mapped by VGI. The results put in evidence a great difference between the two selected sources of data: the ICR identifies 115 points, while OSM detects 22 points and 27 polygons. Considering the type of cultural good, the first map highlights a set very rich and heterogeneous: in the centre of Caserta there are 57 historical buildings, 13 churches, 8 chapels, 6 fountains, 3 theatres, 3 historical houses and other 21 elements. On the other side, the geographical information of OSM is a little more multi-faceted: it reports 7 historical palaces (all polygons), 16 ancient churches (15 polygons and 1 point, classified as chapel), 9 ancient and modern fountains (5 polygons and 4 points) and 17 "monuments" (all points, comprehensive of figures, commemorative plaques, artistic statues, etc.). Regarding their spatial distribution, the ICR map includes items within all the study area, even if their main concentration is close to the Royal Palace (fig. 1A). Concerning the OSM map, some areas of Caserta's historic centre are not even mapped in detail; they are mainly the historical neighbourhoods farthest from the Royal Palace, such as Ercole or Sala. Consequently, also the cultural heritage of OSM map is mostly located close to the Royal Palace or within its park (fig. 1B). As a conclusion, we can shortly report that the cultural heritage mapped by VGI of OSM is overall quite significant (about the 40% of total assets mapped by ICR). However, the results strictly depend on their typology: in our case, for instance, they are better for churches, but worse for historic palaces. Furthermore, the resulting OSM map is strongly influenced by the "bulky" presence in this city of such an important monument as the Royal Palace, as VGI mapped what is directly related or otherwise spatially close.
