Although the ethnomedical system of the Highland Maya is generally well understood, little is known about the Tzeltal Maya ethnomedical syndrome Cha’lam tsots, or ‘second hair.’ In an attempt to better understand the emic conceptualization, and possible biomedical equivalence of Cha’lam tsots, ethnographic data from semi-structured interviews was collected from the Tzeltal Maya municipality of ...

The spatial and temporal distributions of ionospheric electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves during magnetic storms from 2014 to 2018 were studied using Swarm observations. Ionospheric EMIC preferably occurred their recovery phases at subauroral regions within an average latitude 40–55°. There more wave events intense longer period storms. However, the correlation between event number storm...

[1] The temporal and spatial development of the ring current is evaluated during the 23–26 October 2002 high-speed stream (HSS) storm, using a kinetic ring current-atmosphere interactions model with self-consistent magnetic field (RAM-SCB). The effects of nondipolar magnetic field configuration are investigated on both ring current ion and electron dynamics. As the self-consistent magnetic fiel...

component of applying a justice principle. Conversely, most emic research activity has focused on the more concrete component of construing the deservingness of the people involved. Quite likely, these biases of etic and emic perspectives are inherent ones. The tendency of etic perspective research to omit all but the most abstract components of a cognitive process is, in fact, rooted in the ve...
