The interest in studying the possibilities of introduction of Picea glauca (Moench.) Voss. into the territory of the center of the European part of the Russian Federation is explained by a wide range of ecological characteristics of this species, as well as by the prospects of its use in various spheres of the country’s economy. The article deals with the results of a unique experiment to study the growth peculiarities of the grey-blue spruce trees, which were grown from seeds that had been in Earth orbit during the Soviet-American space flight of the Soyuz‑19 and Apollo spacecrafts in July 1975. The seeds were sown in May 1976 and in 1983 the seedlings were planted in the exposition of Arboretum. During the following years, these plants were continuously monitored – tree decline and their condition were recorded. At the age of 40 years, measurements of diameters and heights were made. It was noted that trees grown from “space” seeds had significantly higher growth rates in height and diameter by the age of 40 than the control, with spruce from seeds that had been to space exceeding the control in diameter by 1 cm and in height by 3 m. However, trees grown from “space” seeds had a predominance of weak condition plants, with 17% more plants than the control, and a 38% higher dieback than the control. This can be interpreted as a distant consequence of the effects of stresses produced by experimental seeds in space.

Published: November 2023

The purpose of the research is to find, predict and regulate the temperature and humidity regime of the soil for the conditions of radiant heating of cultivation facilities using dark-type ceiling infrared emitters. A system of differential equations (in dimensional and dimensionless forms) is presented, reflecting the relationship of thermal and mass transfer processes in colloidal capillary-porous bodies in the case of surface radiant heating. A partial analytical solution of this system of differential equations for a semi-bounded body is considered with the exclusion of the phenomenon of thermal and thermal conductivity and period diffusion processes. On the example of milling peat, taking into account the initial data, the solution of the boundary value problem of heat and mass transfer by the method of sources is obtained, which is one-dimensional non-stationary fields of moisture content and temperature. It is established that under the given initial and boundary conditions, as well as taking into account the thermophysical properties of milling peat, the required moisture content will be achieved in six hours, the temperature in three hours. By adjusting the thermal power of the infrared radiation source, and, therefore, the intensity of moisture evaporation from the soil surface into the environment, it is possible to control the rate of heating and drying of the layer (for example, to determine the time or frequency of watering the soil). To clarify the values of moisture content and soil temperature by coordinate and over time, it seems expedient to consider analytical solutions that took into account not only basic, but also conjugate processes of heat and mass diffusion

The purpose of the study is to increase the efficiency of irrigation reclamation, measures aimed at reducing the dose of external and internal radiation to people in radioactively contaminated areas. The main purpose of our research is the economical and efficient use of water resources, the search or creation of abundant and clean sources of irrigation from radioactive contamination. Their use for the purification of soils contaminated with cesium‑137, taking into account the danger of spotty nature of contamination of territories. The need for more thorough research and analysis in the use of water resources for washing soils from radioactive contamination has been established. The specific water consumption during soil washing from cesium contamination is analyzed. Soil samples taken in Novozybkovsky, Gordeevsky, Zlynkovsky and other districts of the Bryansk region, which were exposed to the greatest radioactive contamination, were studied. A general analysis of the availability of water resources in the Bryansk region is given. It was revealed that the Novozybkovsky district is highly polluted, densely populated and has fewer water resources than in other districts. There is an urgent need to save water and, as a consequence, the use of chemical meliorants, which reduce the content of Cs‑137 in the crop by 5‑7 times and improve the filtration properties of soils. Washing of radioactively contaminated soils should be practiced on small areas in private subsidiary farms, using meltwater to wash soils from cesium contamination. It was found that during the formation of snow cover, a powerful layer of snow accumulates in the catchment area of a closed depression, which, when melting, creates abundant washing norms, above the area of black spots, at the bottom of depressions, the formation of such a washing regime does not require large expenditures.

Modeling of a soft clay gentle slope with sand layer in centrifuge under seismic loading: PIV and strain rate analysis
Authors: Takayassu Lucas , Camelo Cristian , Almeida Marcio , Almeida Maria , Madabhushi Santana , Borges Ricardo
Published: November 2023

Dynamic soil parameters such as the shear modulus suffer degradation while damping in soil increases under dynamic loading. These can be determined from various tests such as element tests, field tests and centrifuge experiments. Most of the studies about dynamic soil characterization have focused on evaluating these parameters assuming horizontal ground conditions without considering the effect of static shear stresses induced by ground inclination. This paper presents a dynamic centrifuge test conducted on a layered gentle slope comprising clay and sand, to obtain experimental data in terms of shear modulus and damping for various shear strains. Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) was employed to measure the displacements and to calculate accelerations due to seismic loading at various depths throughout the slope model. The results suggest that the static shear stress caused by the profile inclination causes a more pronounced degradation of the shear modulus when compared to flat ground conditions. Moreover, the damping during the centrifuge test exhibited larger values than expected, following a similar behavior observed in other experimental programs. The strain rate analysis revealed the mobilization of shear stresses higher than the monotonic shear strength for the clay layers during the seismic shaking.

Published: November 2023

In Brazil, landslides are frequent, causing deaths and property damage, and occur under the influence of natural and/or anthropic conditions. Rain acts as the main non-anthropic agent in triggering this phenomenon. Because of this, the prediction of landslides becomes an essential tool for managing high-risk areas. The Metropolitan Region of Recife (MRR) has a large history with numerous cases of mass movements over the years. Currently, research points out improvements in the quality of forecasts by including hydrological information, such as soil moisture, in warning systems. Given the importance of measuring soil moisture in situ, a network of equipment consisting of rain gauges and capacitive moisture sensors was installed in the MRR, to monitor rainfall and soil moisture in an integrated manner. The objective of this article is to understand the hydrological conditions of the soil in two high-risk areas of the MRR, built over the Barreiras Formation to set the foundations for the development of a Landslide Early Warning System (LEWS) that integrates rain and humidity. The data showed that the variation in soil moisture is very dependent on rainfall and presents sudden variations in moisture with increasing hourly rainfall. The data also revealed that the monitored soils remained wet for approximately six months in the year 2022, highlighting the potential for moderate rainfall during this period to trigger landslides.

Authors: Darmawan Arif , Ahmadi Dwi
Published: November 2023

Economic development is synonymous with growth rates where the relationship between development and environmental sustainability is very clear. Indonesia is blessed by Allah SWT with abundant natural resources. One of Indonesia's potentials is palm oil or CPO (Crude Palm Oil). The CPO industry is one of the biggest contributors to Indonesia's foreign exchange. Palm oil can contribute around 13.50 % to non-oil and gas exports and about 3.50% to Indonesia's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Until the end of 2020, the export value of CPO in Indonesia reached 27,326.1 tons from various destination countries.

However, in the midst of this perspective industrial climate, environmental issues surrounding the CPO industry continue to be voiced from various circles. As a result of such a large demand, it has an impact on land clearing for oil palm production. Real action from the government and palm oil companies is urgently needed to overcome this. Synergy is needed between the government through its policies and the role of oil palm companies through production mechanisms and programs that support the environment, such as the implementation of environmental insurance programs. The environmental insurance program has two insurance policy applications, namely, Polluter Pay Principle and Instrument Cess. However, this environmental insurance program has not been implemented with the right system. Therefore, the actualization of Islamic values is expected to help optimize the program.

Sharia Pawnshop has transformed  into one of the strengths of Islamic financial institutions whose existence is quite taken into account. The characteristics of sharia pawns that are solutive for the lower middle class are a strong factor in its progress from year to year. In line with that, the existence of Islamic economics and finance-based study programs in all PTKIN and even most PTN, brings new hope of producing superior sharia-based human resources. A hope that is just waiting for the momentum to make Indonesia a country of Islamic Economic Civilization in the world. Various efforts have been made to produce excellent students who will compete in the world of work, especially in Islamic financial institutions. However, the problem is that there is no relevance between the world of work and the basic knowledge of Islamic economics and finance that is owned, which is an irony and injures the spirit of printing sharia-based superior human resources. Many alumni work in conventional financial institutions, on the other hand, Islamic financial institutions lack sharia-based human resources. This study aims to describe the concept of human resource development in universities that are integrated with Islamic financial institutions, especially Sharia Pawnshop. There are three concrete steps that can be implemented through the integration-interconnection approach, namely the development of thematic courses, strengthening the role of laboratories, and optimizing field work practices for students. By providing an overview and analysis of the strengthening, it is hoped that it can contribute to the formation of superior sharia-based human resources.

Published: November 2023

In vitro fertilization (IVF), embryo cryopreservation, and embryo transfer (ET) are assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) that are used extensively for the maintenance of mouse models in animal research. Inbred mouse strains with different genetic backgrounds vary in their reproductive performance. Cryopreservation can affect embryo quality and viability, and the genetic background of ET recipients can influence the ET result. In this retrospective study, we analyzed the outcomes of ETs performed in our facility during the last 6 y. We found that B6C3F1 mice with swollen ampullae show almost 3-fold higher pregnancy rates than mice with nonswollen ampullae when either freshly isolated or frozen-thawed embryos are implanted. Implantation of freshly collected embryos in recipients with swollen ampullae led to significantly higher pregnancy rates in comparison to implantation of frozen-thawed embryos, regardless of whether the latter were fertilized in vivo or in vitro. Moreover, we found a significant effect of genetic background on the birth rate; C57BL/6J mice and mice with a mixed genetic background had 34% higher birth rates than did C57BL/6N mice. Within the C57BL/6J group, the birth rates were significantly higher when using fresh in vivo-fertilized embryos, and cryopreservation negatively affected both in vivo- and in vitro-fertilized embryos. The success rate of obtaining one living pup was not significantly different between frozen-thawed and fresh embryos. Overall, a swollen ampulla is a strong indicator for a successful pregnancy, together with the embryo manipulation and genetic background. A better understanding of the factors that affect the reproductive outcome might lead to optimization of the ART protocols and contribute to a reduction in the number of mice used for these procedures.
