Determining the efficacy of push-pull for management of Eldana saccharina (Walker (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) in sugarcane through on-farm field trials in KwaZulu-Natal.
Authors: Mulcahy Megan , Conlong Des , Hill Martin
Published: December 2023

An area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM) programme was developed to improve management of Eldana saccharina Walker (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), a major pest of South African sugarcane. Push-pull technology is an important component of this AW-IPM approach. The sugarcane push-pull programme uses plants which are both repellent (Melinis minutiflora P. Beauv. (Cyperales: Poaceae)) and attractive (Cyperus dives Delile and Cyperus papyrus L. (both Cyperales: Cyperaceae) to E. saccharina. Previous research demonstrated the efficacy of push-pull in the Midlands North region of KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), South Africa. To date, little research has been conducted in coastal sugarcane growing areas. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of using push-pull for management of E. saccharina in coastal KZN, using large-scale on-farm field trials conducted on five model farms. On each farm, wetland habitats were rehabilitated with pull plants (C. dives and C. papyrus) and fields were intercropped with the repellent grass M. minutiflora. Eldana saccharina damage and infestation levels were recorded to assess the efficacy of push-pull, using a multiple before-after-control-impact (mBACI) design. Push-pull treatment sites showed a significant reduction in mean percentage stalk damage and E. saccharina abundance relative to control sites. Furthermore, stemborer surveys in wetland habitats revealed higher numbers of E. saccharina within Cyperus spp. stands. Pull plants were therefore effective at attracting E. saccharina away from sugarcane. The success of the push-pull trials in this study indicates that it is a useful tool for managing E. saccharina populations in coastal sugarcane, especially in conjunction with other management practices.
SUSTAINABLE AND STRATEGIC SOFT-MAGNETIC Fe-Si-Al ALLOYS PRODUCED BY SECONDARY METALLURGY
Authors: Steiner Petrovič Darja
Published: December 2023

In Slovenia, Fe-Si-Al alloys for non-oriented, silicon-steel sheets are designed and manufactured in a sustainable manner. Ferrous scrap is recycled, and, therefore, CO2 emissions are greatly reduced. However, sustainable technologies based on secondary metallurgy have many limitations. Impurities that cannot be effectively removed from the steel melt increase the complexity of the material’s behavior during processing and use. One of the most contaminating elements is copper (Cu). In this review, the focus is on phenomena related to the Cu impurity during the specific steps of the metallurgical processing of selected Fe-Si-Al alloys. The identified challenges concerning the efficiency of some technological phases related to the presence of Cu in Fe-Si-Al, non-oriented electrical steels might motivate further (inter)disciplinary research, basic or applied. In order to follow the set goals of the EU and achieve climate neutrality by 2050, silicon electrical steels produced with sustainable circular-economy approaches must be recognized as a strategic material for the EU.
Enhancing the Professional Skills Development Project (MESGEP): An Attempt to Facilitate Ecological Awareness
Authors: YILMAZ Adem
Published: December 2023

Concepts change at an incredibly fast rate for human beings and more specifically in the world of education and whence for society. To cite an example, there exist conceptualizations ‘issued’ such as Industry 4.0 or University 5.0. The very standpoint here arguably directs the focus to andragogy “at the brink of the post-anthropocene” (Wallin, 2017) in a rather inevitable fashion. Integrating the salient elements of the notion post-anthropocene into andragogy of Vocational Education and Training (VET) and ensuring the ‘sustainability’ of learning and teaching related practicum in this regard is deemed essential considering “growing ecological awareness in the era of the Anthropocene could also productively influence all spheres of life-ecology, economics, education, politics and the social sphere–in the interest of sustaining the planet” (Le Grange, 2019, p.1). In this direction, this paper intends to discuss the optimal means through which the VET given to the marginal groups in Türkiye as part of a project entitled “Professional Skills Development Project (MESGEP)” can be enriched towards raising an awareness about the climate crisis and about the other ecological issues awaiting to be confronted. It is hoped that with the new amendments to made to the available curricula, the individuals as the participants of the project can gain more consciousness about ecological crises and adopt the relevant skills. Thereupon, it is thought that educating disadvantaged groups in this way will not only point to equal opportunity in education but also attempt to alter the previously held belief, which pinpointed environmental pollution is indeed an externality of education.
Zinc Metal-Organic Frameworks- Graphene Quantum Dots Nanocomposite Mediated Highly Sensitive and Selective Fluorescence “On-Off-On” Probe for Sensing of Quercetin
Authors: Nangare Sopan N. , Sangare Premnath M. , Patil Ashwini G. , Patil Pravin O.
Published: December 2023

The current study presents a fluorescence-based ‘On-Off-On’ nanoprobe composed of rose petal-derived graphene quantum dots embedded in zinc metal-organic frameworks (RP-GQDs@Zn-MOFs) as a proof of concept for quercetin sensing. The particle size and HR-TEM analysis confirmed the synthesis of a uniformly distributed nanosized probe, while the zeta potential (+33.03 mV) verified its good stability. The fluorescence analysis confirmed that the introduction of copper ions (Cu2+) resulted in fluorescence quenches, while the inclusion of quercetin forms quercetin-Cu2+ complex, leading to recovery of quenched fluorescence in RP-GQDs@Zn-MOFs due to static quenching. The nanoprobe demonstrated a wide concentration range and a low detection limit of 100 ng/mL to 1400 ng/mL (R2 = 0.99) and 37.8 ng/mL, respectively. Selectivity analysis highlighted pronounced specificity for quercetin, attributed to Cu2+ coordination between carbonyl oxygen atom and the 3-OH group of quercetin. Furthermore, designed probe exhibited excellent stability, repeatability (RSD < 5), and potential for real-time analysis.

Authors: Thalluri Chandrashekar , Swain Kalpana , Pattnaik Satyanarayan
Published: December 2023

Nanoparticles are typically nanoscopic materials with at least one of the dimensions below 100 nm having diverse applications in many industries. The latest developments in nanotechnology provide a wide range of methods for studying and monitoring various medical and biological processes at the nanoscale. Nanoparticles can help diagnose and treat diseases, such as cancer, by carrying drugs directly to cancer cells. They can also be used to detect disease biomarkers in the body, helping to provide early diagnosis. It is plausible that nanoparticles could be used in theranostic applications and targeted drug delivery. This could significantly improve patient outcomes and reduce the amount of time, effort, and money needed to diagnose and treat diseases. It could also reduce the side effects of treatments, providing more precise and effective treatments. Nanoparticles for biomedical applications include polymeric and metal nanoparticles; liposomes and micelles; dendrimers and quantum dots; etc. Among the nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have emerged as a promising platform for drug delivery applications. GNPs are highly advantageous for drug delivery applications due to their excellent biocompatibility, stability, and tunable physical and chemical properties. The present review provides an in-depth discussion of the various approaches to GNPs synthesis and drug delivery applications.
Empoderamiento de la mujer en el sector vitivinícola catalán
Authors: Böcker Zavaro Rafael , Banach Esteve Tara
Published: December 2023

En este artículo, se plantea el papel actual de la mujer en el desarrollo agrario de Cataluña. El objetivo de esta investigación es el estudio de la inclusión y del reconocimiento de la mujer en el sector agrario, concretamente dentro del mundo vitivinícola, desde una perspectiva de género. La metodología se ha basado en una estrategia mixta: se analizan fuentes secundarias documentales y estadísticas, así como entrevistas en profundidad realizadas a informantes cualificadas. Entre los resultados principales, está la descripción del rol dinamizador de las mujeres como nuevo actor social en los territorios rurales, a partir de la transformación de la familia agraria tradicional. Se concluye que en Cataluña existe un segmento de mujeres titulares de pequeñas explotaciones vitivinícolas que generan empleo, aunque tienen bajos niveles de rentabilidad. Por ello, las instituciones pertinentes podrían incidir con medidas económicas y territoriales aplicadas selectivamente que generen visibilidad y bienestar social. Esto ayudaría a que el mundo rural y agrario en general volviera a sus orígenes desde el sentido común, la conectividad entre agentes, el empoderamiento y la creación de redes en las que las mujeres sean grandes protagonistas. Lograr una sociedad avanzada en todos los aspectos es fundamental para cerrar la brecha de género actual en la agricultura.

Both on the planet in general and within the territory of the Oster River basin, the effectiveness of the anthropogenic factor in relief formation depends on the natural conditions of the territory, the number of people and the set of technical devices and means that people use for their needs. With an increase in the population and technological progress, the number of anthropogenic landforms has been constantly increasing. New types of them have been appearing and their morphometric indicators together with the human influence on the development of natural relief-forming processes have been growing. Nowadays human relief-creating activity is in line with such natural processes as fluvial, gravitational, eolian, glacial, etc., and in many cases it even strengthens their influence on the Earth’s surface. As a result of anthropogenic activity, relief forms which in size have the rank of pico-, nano-, micro- and mesorelief appear. The study of such relief forms makes it possible to assess the role and scale of the influence of anthropogenic activity on the formation of the relief of the studied territory. Literature review, cartographic and statistical methods were actively used to study the features of anthropogenic morphosculpture of the Oster River basin. Also, during the field research conducted by us during 2018-2021, the methods of field route observations, surveys, photography, morphological and morphometric analyses were used. Mathematical methods and computer technologies were used to process and generalize the obtained data. Based on the materials of our own field research and the analysis of published scientific works, we established that anthropogenic morphosculpture within the territory of the Oster River basin was mainly formed under the influence of mining, engineering and construction, agrarian, military and recreational types of human activity. Landforms (quarries, mounds, dumps, canals, unpaved roads, highways, railways, ditches, bridges and pipe overpasses, sluices, agricultural lands, trenches, craters, monuments, embankment beaches, etc.) that arose as a result of the specified types of anthropogenic influence on the earth’s surface, differed significantly in terms of the location as well as morphological and morphometric indicators. In general, there is every reason to state that the anthropogenic relief formation factor plays an important role in the formation of the surface of the studied territory. Thanks to human activity, new forms of relief appear here and the course of natural relief-forming processes changes significantly. The biggest changes in the nature of the earth’s surface, the existing natural forms of relief and the conditions of rock formation within the Oster River basin are associated with the quarry method of mineral extraction.

Published: December 2023

In order to reduce the devastating consequences of extreme wind gusts, a significant amount of research is being carried out in the world to study the conditions for the occurrence of this phenomenon, the dynamics of its spatio-temporal distribution, and a possible potential change in the wind regime against the background of modern climate change. Nowadays, it appears that not much research has been carried out to determine the possible impact of climate change on future wind gusts on the territory of Ukraine and, in particular, in the Northern Black Sea region. Global warming scenarios are expected to change the severity and frequency of future wind gusts by the end of this century. Considering this, a study was made of the spatio-temporal features of the formation of wind gusts in the North-Western Black Sea region for the period 2005-2020, and the dependence of their occurrence on air temperature and atmospheric pressure anomalies, which can be used to analyze possible changes of future wind regimes as a result of climate change. To analyze the occurrence of wind gusts in the North-Western Black Sea region, data from three stations located in different parts of the region were selected. The data of METAR telegrams on wind gusts at the Odessa-AMSC, Mykolaiv, Kherson stations and surface weather observations data for the period from January 2005 to December 2020 were used as source material in the work. For statistical analysis of daily air temperature and pressure anomalies, NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis archive data for the same period were used. The obtained results show that in the territory of the North-Western Black Sea region over the past 15 years, wind gusts in the gradation of 13-15 (m.s-1) prevailed, and the speed of wind gusts in most cases rised with an increase of the daily temperature anomaly (from 0.0 to 5.0 °С) and a decrease of the daily pressure anomaly (from 0 to -7.0 hPa).

The study of channel processes and corresponding relief forms is important and relevant because the current state of river systems largely determines the economic and hydroecological state of regions. In recent decades, the research of channel processes has acquired qualitatively new elements of development, accompanied by the expansion of the theoretical and methodological basis and the scope of scientific research. An important aspect of channel studies as a complex hydrological-geomorphological scientific field is the study of new factors that influence the formation of river valley elements, in particular climatic changes and anthropogenic activity. The practical significance of the study of channel processes lies in the need of taking into account their specifics in river navigation, when conducting engineering and construction works and organizing water management activities. The issue of environmental safety is also important. It became especially relevant due to the sudden manifestation of the instability of the water regime of rivers as a result of climate change, the consequence of which is the occurrence of floods and freshets of a catastrophic nature.Taking into account the information available in the publications of well-known researchers and relying on the results of our own field research, we analyzed the peculiarities of channel processes in the valley of the Desna river within the territory of the Novhorod-Siverskyi district of the Chernihiv region. Their relief-forming role as well as the morphological and morphometric features of water-erosive, water-accumulative and gravity relief forms were studied. In particular, a variety of channel landforms such as floodplains, sand strands and ridges, shoals, riffles, underwater sandbars, islands, areas of development of landslides and scree processes, bifurcation sites, erosion ledges, cliffs, basins, ravines, potholes and erosion furrows were researched. It has been established that the natural conditions of the Novhorod-Siverskyi district are favourable for the intensive development of channel processes and the formation of channel topography in the valley of the Desna river. It was determined that among the channel processes that take place within the studied territory, free movement, lateral and deep erosion and accumulation are the most widespread. They play an important role in relief formation and are the reason for the appearance of the final relief forms present here. It is worth noting that the results of this research can be used in the engineering and technical spheres, it will be useful to apply them during the construction and preventive maintenance of hydrotechnical constructions, river navigation and water management activities.

Published: December 2023

In today's society, the contribution of the development of artificial intelligence is playing an increasingly important role, which can make people both easier to live and worried about the role that man plays in society. Copyright is an essential element of intellectual property protection, which must undoubtedly be protected. Conversely, problems and questions may arise when copyright is infringed not by a natural or legal person but by artificial intelligence. Modern technologies are developing rapidly, so it is essential to find appropriate legal frameworks that will be equally effective and flexible.
A note on institutional trust and poverty: evidence from Latin America
Authors: Tovar-García Edgar Demetrio
Published: December 2023

This short paper argues that institutional trust should be considered as an additional factor influencing poverty at the macroeconomic level. By examining a sample of Latin American countries and analyzing annual data from 1995 to 2019 using panel data techniques such as cointegration analysis and panel fully modified least squares, this study estimates the long-term relationships between poverty, economic growth, inequality, and institutional trust. As hypothesized, the empirical evidence suggests that institutional trust also reduces poverty. These findings hold particular significance for Latin America, where inequality levels are relatively high, institutional trust is low, and poverty rates have only recently begun to decline. Therefore, to alleviate poverty, it is crucial to implement public policies that restore and enhance institutional trust.

Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND: Mental disorders (including autism) in the Russian Federation rank first among all classes of diseases that form the primary disability in children. Analysis of the state and dynamics of the indicators of primary childhood disability due to this pathology, considering age-specific features, is the basis for further development of medical and social expertise, rehabilitation, and disability prevention.
AIMS: To analyze the state and dynamics of indicators of primary childhood disability caused by mental disorders and autism in St. Petersburg and the Voronezh Oblast.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study enrolled children who were recognized to have a disability for the first time caused by mental disorders and autism in St. Petersburg and Voronezh Oblast for 2016–2021. Data sources included statistical collections of the Federal State Statistics Service and forms of state statistical reporting 7-D (sobes). The study is longitudinal and continuous. Analytical, documentary, data copying, statistical, and graphic research methods were employed.
RESULTS: Indicators of primary childhood disability caused by mental disorders and autism are important criteria for the effectiveness of rehabilitation (habilitation) measures. The regional variability and growth of the number and level of IDD among the residents of the Russian Federation was revealed, reaching a maximum in St. Petersburg in 2021 (8.5 per 10 thousand pediatric population) and in the Voronezh region in 2019 (8.2 per 10 thousand pediatric population), which exceeded the all-Russian indicators. The level of autism-related primary childhood disability in 2016–2021 varied in the following ranges: from 0.5 to 0.7 in St. Petersburg (1.4-fold increase), from 2.4 to 1.2 in Voronezh Oblast (2-fold decrease), and from 1.4 to 2.0 per 10,000 children population (1.4-fold increase) in the Russian Federation. The results revealed the dependence of fluctuations in the rates of primary childhood disability caused by mental disorders and autism on changes in the normative legal framework for establishing disability.
CONCLUSION: The data obtained on the regional peculiarities of the dynamics and state of primary childhood disability caused by mental disorders and autism in St. Petersburg and Voronezh Oblast should be used to develop priority directions of medical and social assistance for the prevention of primary childhood disability at the level of regional healthcare organizations.

Authors: Portela-Pino Iago , Domínguez-Rodríguez Victor
Published: December 2023

El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar los niveles de ansiedad rasgo entre estudiantes de primer y segundo ciclo de enseñanza secundaria de Galicia (España). El estudio utilizó una metodología psicométrico-cuantitativa, incluyendo análisis factorial, descriptivo e inferencial en una muestra de 869 estudiantes de entre 12 y 18 años (M = 14.44; DT = 1.59), encuestados mediante el Cuestionario de Ansiedad (STAI-R) y una ficha de datos sociodemográficos. Los resultados mostraron niveles moderados de ansiedad rasgo entre el 49 % de la muestra, niveles bajos entre el 26.9 % y niveles altos entre el 24.1 %. El análisis factorial exploratorio apoyó un modelo de tres factores (Inadecuación, Desesperanza y Estabilidad), mientras que el análisis factorial confirmatorio demostró que un modelo teórico de dos factores (Ansiedad rasgo-afirmativa, Ansiedad rasgo-negativa) también presenta un ajuste aceptable. La fiabilidad se analizó mediante el alfa de Cronbach y el omega de McDonald, encontrándose índices de consistencia interna adecuados para cada medida de la escala (α/ω > .70). Finalmente, el análisis inferencial apoyó la existencia de un mayor nivel de ansiedad rasgo entre los adolescentes que no realizan ejercicio físico. El artículo concluye que incluso los niveles moderados de ansiedad rasgo entre los jóvenes pueden mejorarse mediante el ejercicio físico..
A Re-acquaintance to Additional Burial in the Middle Ancient Period of Silla Tombs from Case of Excavation of Human Bones
Authors:   Korean Ancient Historical Society, Choi Jung-Bum
Published: December 2023

Multiple bodies were buried in stone chamber tombs with old-style horizontal entrances that were designed to accommodate additional burials. The number of additional burials and time span between themcan be determined through physical research. However, the scarcity of cases where human bones were excavated has hindered the restoration of detailed aspects of these burials. Nevertheless, we focused on the possibility of restoration by studying the exposure of human bones in existing data. Prior to this, we organized the terminology related to additional burials and proceeded to analyze ancient tombs discovered in areas that date back tothe middle ancient period of Silla, where human bones from more than one individual were found. As a result, we categorized the bones into four types based on their exposure.
The above data highlights several issues regarding additional burials. Firstly, it is observed that the number of buried bodies does not directly correspond to the number of thalami. Additionally, we propose the possibility of a facility specifically designed for burying bones collected from an individual’s remains. It is equally plausible that altars for burying remains or funeral altars were constructed for the purpose of interring the gathered bones. Furthermore, we have also confirmed that the types of tombs prepared prior to death were likewise utilized for additional burials. Our conclusions suggest that these phenomena emergedfrom the re-dissemination of Silla’s central regulations and perspectives on horizontal entrance tombs and funeral ceremonies in rural areas sincethe sixth century, along with the corresponding pressure to adopt these burial practices.

Published: December 2023

Living learning communities (LLCs) improve students’ social connection and involvement through intentional planning and relationships with faculty and peers. This case study explored student experiences in a living learning community known as the Sport Management and Media Living Learning Community (SMM LLC) at Elon University. Informed by the research about best practice for living learning communities (Inkelas, et al., 2018) and the mattering of relationships (Felton & Lambert, 2020), the study explored students’ perceptions of living in the SMM LLC. The focus group and interviews revealed students’ experiences focused on the importance of relationships with faculty and peers that matter. The findings revealed two themes - the SMM LLC as a place to develop community and friendships and catalyst for involvement. The study offers implications and opportunities for future research and practice for why sport management faculty should implement LLCs at their university to enhance the student experience through an intentional engaged learning design.

Authors: Sequeira Sancho N. , Holzman Madison A. , Horst S. Jeanne , Ghant Walter A.
Published: December 2023

In the current study, we applied a mixed-methods approach to examining civic-mindedness of undergraduate students in a service-learning course. A quantitative self-report measure of civic-mindedness was administered pre- and post-course. During the second half of the course, a subset of students participated in focus groups, responding to questions directly aligned with the quantitative measure. Quantitative and qualitative data were integrated via a mixed method convergent parallel design. Quantitatively, civic-mindedness increased pre-post. Qualitative findings both supported and contradicted quantitative results. Mixed-methods analyses provided a more complete understanding of the relationship between service-learning and civic-mindedness than quantitative or qualitative analysis alone. Future research for student affairs and assessment professionals are discussed.
Institutional generativity or reproduction of privilege? How campus context and parental involvement affects legacy students
Authors: Warshaw Jarrett B. , Henne-Ochoa Richard B. , Murray Joseph L.
Published: December 2023

This study focuses on undergraduate legacy students, who have family-alumni ties to their institution. We draw on the ecological systems framework and human development theories to interpret interview data on legacy students’ perspectives of self, family, and institution. Our analysis revealed (1) nuanced experiences of separation-individuation; (2) deeply embedded family influences that constrained yet empowered formations of identity and life-direction; and (3) campus-centered dynamics that encouraged the extension of lives of privilege. These themes suggest that interactions among students, families, and institution may be more unstructured and indirect than what prior literature shows. They indicate as well the generative qualities of campus and family that may limit student development and undergird broader patterns of social inequality. We discuss implications for policy, practice, and research.
Looking from the Outside In: Considerations for External Assessment
Authors: Burr Katherine H. , Wallace Jason K. , Dean Laura A.
Published: December 2023

Grant projects. Program review. Accreditation. All of these may involve the use of external reviewers to provide consultation and objective evaluation. Working with external visitors, or serving in this capacity, can be a complicated process to navigate. While external review strategies have clear advantages, they also present distinct challenges to the external reviewers and those internal to the project. Staff in departments undergoing review may experience anxiety and wonder how to maximize chances for success. Using Bolman and Deal's (2017) four-frame model of perspectives on organizations, the authors offer considerations for student affairs professionals engaging in the external review process for both external reviewers and internal parties. These considerations include encouraging individuals to be thoughtful about campus culture, logistics, access to information, effective working relationships, and explicit clarification of the nature and purpose of the task(s). Ultimately, these considerations focus on ways to make the external review process positive and effective.

Sabe-se que o valor de um bem não é algo fixo e objetivamente dado, mas resulta de processos de valoração social nos quais o valor é construído.
