Human Trafficking In The Islamic View (Comparative Study Of Al-Azhar And Al Misbah Interpretation)
Authors: Harahap Sayla Ar Rahmah Hafiidzah , Indra
Published: November 2024

This study aims to examine and compare Islamic views on human trafficking based on two prominent tafsir works, namely Tafsir Al-Azhar by Buya Hamka and Tafsir Al-Misbah by M. Quraish Shihab. Human trafficking, as a form of modern slavery, is a global problem that is very contrary to human values. From an Islamic perspective, protection of human dignity and rights is strongly emphasized, including the prohibition of all forms of human exploitation. Tafsir Al-Azhar, with a contextual and sociological approach, emphasizes the importance of maintaining human honor and freedom and condemns slavery in the socio-cultural context of Indonesia. On the other hand, Tafsir Al-Misbah, with a linguistic and historical approach, highlights human trafficking as a violation of the principles of justice and humanity in Islamic teachings. This study found that although the two tafsirs have different approaches, both are in line in the view that human trafficking is an act that is prohibited in Islam and contrary to the universal values taught by the Qur'an.

Authors: Éltető Andrea
Published: November 2024

A Külgazdaság 2024/7–8. számában megjelent cikk a magyarországi akkumulátoripar jogi szabályozásának egyes környezeti hatásait mutatta be. Ez a tanulmány az előző folytatásaként a gyárakon belüli és kívüli iparbiztonsági kockázatokat, az ezzel kapcsolatos kormányzati tájékoztatást és a civil szervezetek tevékenységének kezelését tárgyalja. Bizonyított, hogy a dél-koreai cellagyárak és újrahasznosítók az elmúlt évek során rendszeres, ismétlődő szabálytalanságokat követtek el Magyarországon, amelyek a dolgozók veszélyeztetéséhez és balesetekhez vezettek. A hatóságok mindezek hatékony elhárításában tehetetlennek bizonyultak. A gyárak esetében a profitszerzés érdekei sokszor felülírják a biztonság és az egészség szempontjait. Az iparbiztonsági kockázatok a kínai gyárak tömeges betelepülésével normál üzemmódban is tovább nőnek. Minderről a lakosság érdemi tájékoztatás helyett olyan propagandát kap, ami a zöldremosás összes eszközével operál, s eközben az aggódó civil csoportokat a hatóságok igyekeznek többféleképpen korlátozni.

Authors: Agus Pratama  , Agatha Debby Reiza Macella  , Veni Nella Syahputri
Published: November 2024

Simeulue Island is one of the archipelago areas that has the charm of a very potential marine tourism destination. To optimize sustainable tourism, cooperation and a collaborative role are needed in the development of marine tourism. One of the marine tourism locations is located on Busung beach, Busung Village, Teupah Tengah District, Simeulue Regency. Busung Beach has the allure of the sea and a beautiful stretch of sand, but the natural charm it offers is not utilized properly by the Simeulue Regency government. The lack of optimal waste management, the faulty belief system of the community which thinks that development on the beach will only provide one-sided benefits, the lack of enthusiasm of the community in developing beach tourism, the problem of human resources which are still minimal in tourism management are basic problems that must be overcome by the government. The aim of the research is to find out how to develop sustainable marine tourism through a participation approach in Busung village. This research was carried out using qualitative methods with a qualitative descriptive approach. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the development of sustainable marine tourism in Busung Village is still at the consultation level, namely that there has been two-way communication between the Simeulue Regency Government and the Busung Village Government but it is still a formality. The essence of the consultation is that several activities have been carried out, such as gathering aspirations through meetings facilitated by the Teupah Tengah District Government, field visits by the Disbudpar, submission of proposals for the development of Busung beach tourism. These efforts have not had a good impact on marine tourism in Busung Village.

Published: November 2024

Drawing is widely recognised as a fundamental skill in higher education, particularly in art and design fields, where it plays a pivotal role in creative expression and technical development. However, assessing impressive drawings presents challenges due to the subjective nature of creativity and the evolving standards of art education. This study aims to develop a conceptual model that offers a structured approach for educators and students to evaluate impressive drawings effectively. Using qualitative research methods and inductive content analysis of literature from 2019 to 2024, the study identifies key components of impressive drawing, such as technical proficiency, creativity, conceptual depth, and visual communication. The findings highlight a shift in teaching practices, driven by historical and contemporary perspectives, and explore the integration of digital tools with traditional techniques in art and design education. The study acknowledges the inherent subjectivity in drawing assessments and recommends developing a more objective and consistent evaluation system that still preserves creative expression. The proposed ID model balances technical skill with creativity, providing a framework for improving assessment practices and guiding students toward meeting the expectations of impressive drawings. This model adapts to the evolving needs of the field, contributing to ongoing discourse in art and design education.

Authors: Huda R. Shakir  , Sadiq A. Mehdi  , Anwar A. Hattab
Published: November 2024

Image encryption is an essential area of visual cryptography that helps protect images when they are shared over the internet. There are many cryptography algorithms applied for many years in encrypting images. In recent years, techniques from chaotic systems have been combined with DNA coding to help encrypt images and protect them from unauthorized use. In this study, we proposed a new method for image encryption based on a new four-dimensional chaotic system and DNA encoding. The proposed method consists of two stages: the pixel positions are scrambled depending on which chaotic sequences are generated from the new chaotic system; and then, an XOR operation is performed on the image scrambled by using the DNA encoding sequence to get the final encryption image. Analyses such as entropy, NPCR, UACI, and key space are used to evaluate the algorithm's performance. The algorithm attains average entropy of 7.99, which is close to the ideal value of 8 with NPCR and UACI of 99.64 and 33.02, respectively. In addition, the key space is 2627. The simulation results show that the proposed method offers high security, good encryption, and is resistant to many types of attacks

Reactive dyes pose a major risk to the environment and human health when they contaminate water. In this study we prepared highly efficient a synthesis of SnO2:CuO nanocomposite with two different concentrations by environmentally friendly which is hydrothermal method. The technique of X-ray diffraction was used to examine the structural properties of the materials, The FE-SEM technology was utilized to explore and evaluate the surface morphology, FTIR and UV–visible spectrophotometer. The results reveal from XRD that the crystal structure of samples exhibits two phases comprising SnO2 structure that possesses tetragonal rutile, tetragonal cell of metallic Sn, and monoclinic-phase of CuO. FESEM images detect that the change of precursor concentration in the range of (0.1-0.05 M) influence the shape of the nanocomposite and has an amazing effect on the diameter size as-grown particles in the range of (53.8-22.73) nm and photocatalysis. The FTIR spectra's presence of vibrational bands corresponding to CuO and SnO2 confirms that these materials exist in the nanostructure, showing that the binaries of metallic oxides have been integrated successfully. In UV-Vis., absorption increase with thickness layer. With rising thickness layer, the energy gap dropped from (2.05 to 1.98) eV. Using Methylene blue as a model pollutant, the photodegradation efficiency of SnO2:CuO nanocomposite was investigated. SnO2:CuO (95% and 92% at 135 min.) The hydrothermal approach with two different concentrations supports the photocatalytic activity observed in this work to remove methylene blue, and the result is to preserve the aquatic environment as much as possible.

Grain crops are the source of the initially necessary raw materials for most bakery products, as well as a food product for livestock farming. Grain is of inherent strategic importance to the country or is considered as a factor in the state’s food reserves. The problem of increasing grain production remains relevant to this day; the reason is the high value of grain products with the subsequent demand for these products. There are many factors reducing wheat productivity, the most significant being diseases. The main weapon in the fight against wheat diseases are fungicides of various spectrums of action, including Soligor. Research has shown that with the use of the Soligor fungicide at a consumption rate of 0.4 l/ha to 0.6 l/ha, the percentage of leaf rust development decreased to 0.7 %. Biological effectiveness was 92.5 %. At a consumption rate of 0.5 l/ha of the Soligor preparation, the development of leaf rust is reduced to 0.9 %, with biological efficiency – 82.5 %. By the number of grains in an ear – 23.2 pcs. – and the weight of 1000 seeds is 33 g. – the indicators were higher at a consumption rate of 0.4 l/ha. The number of productive stems was higher at a consumption rate of 0.6 l/ha with an indicator of 261 pcs/m2. On wheat crops with an application rate of 0.6 l/ha, the biological yield was higher by 1.2 c/ha than at a rate of 0.4 l/ha, 18.1 c/ha and 16.9 c/ha, respectively. Keywords: fungicide, application rates, yield, Soligor, efficiency.

Machine learning plays a key role in helping farmers and decision-makers predict crop yields, assisting them in choosing which crops to grow and how to manage them throughout the growing season. To better understand the effectiveness of different machine learning methods, we conducted a systematic literature review. From six electronic databases, we initially gathered 567 relevant studies and, after applying our selection criteria, narrowed it down to 50 studies for in-depth analysis. We focused on identifying the commonly used algorithms and features in these studies. The analysis revealed that temperature, rainfall, and soil type are the most frequently used features for crop prediction, while Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) are the most applied machine learning models. In addition, we expanded our investigation to include studies specifically using deep learning techniques. We reviewed 30 papers in this category and found that Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are the most popular choice. Other widely used deep learning algorithms include Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and Deep Neural Networks (DNN). Overall, our findings offer insights into the prevalent approaches and highlight opportunities for future research in crop yield prediction using both machine learning and deep learning techniques.

Periferik damar hastalığı, yaşam kalitesini düşüren ciddi mortalite ve morbitiye neden olan hastalıklar arasındadır. Bu hastalara tanı konulup doğru tedavi uygulanması için gerekli görüntülemelerin yapılması önemlidir. Görüntülemede yeni nesil Bilgisayarlı Tomografi Anjiyografi (BTA)’ler daha ayrıntılı şekilde görüntü sunmaktadır. Bunun yanında yüksek alan gücüne sahip Tesla Manyetik Rezonans(MR) kullanılması da daha düşük doz kontrast kullanılarak daha detaylı vasküler yapıların görüntülenmesine olanak sağlar. Doppler Ultrasonografi, vasküler yapıların görüntülenmesinde kullanılan diğer bir yöntemdir. Bu yöntem diğerleri gibi detay vermemekle birlikte kullanımı kolay, güvenli ve maliyeti düşüktür. Kullanan kişiye göre farklı sonuçlar görülmesi ve vasküler yapıları görüntülemede daha az duyarlı olması güvenirliğini düşürmektedir.

Published: November 2024

Toplumsal yapının bir aynası, zamanın ruhunu yansıtan bir araç ve kimi zaman da değişime çağrı yapan bir ses olarak müzik, tarih boyunca toplumsal eleştiri için güçlü bir platform işlevi görmüştür. Bilgi kirliliği ve manipülasyonun her geçen gün arttığı günümüzde, müziğin toplumsal eleştiri aracı olarak işlevinin ortaya konulması doğrultusunda, bu çalışma kapsamında Baltimore, Maryland çıkışlı bir metal müzik grubu olan Misery Index’in 2019 yılında yayınlanan "Rituals of Power" albümünün metinsel içeriğinde post-truth olgusunun inşa ve aktarım biçimlerinin açığa çıkarılarak yorumlanması amaçlanmıştır. Niteliksel içerik çözümlemesi yaklaşımı benimsenerek gerçekleştirilen çalışmada albümdeki şarkı sözleri, MAXQDA Analytics Pro 2024 programına aktarıldıktan sonra sistematik ve tümevarımsal bir şekilde kodlanmış ve “medya ve siyaset”, “toplumsal çöküş”, “toplumsal baskı ve dışlanma” ve “iktidarın döngüsel doğası” olmak üzere dört tema çerçevesinde yorumlanmıştır. Bulgular, albümde çarpıtılmış gerçeklik, kurumsal başarısızlık ve bilginin kasıtlı manipülasyonu ile mücadelenin söz konusu olduğu bir dünyanın karanlık bir tasvirinin sunulduğunu göstermektedir. Bu bağlamda şarkı sözleri; medya manipülasyonu, yankı odaları, politik aldatma, gerçek ve kurgu arasındaki çizginin bulanıklaşması, toplumsal çöküş, ahlaki yozlaşma, distopik gelecek ve kurumlara duyulan güvenin kaybı gibi post-truth olgusuyla ilişkili konuları ele almaktadır. Post-truth çağının beraberinde getirdiği sorunlara sanatsal bir yanıt niteliği taşıyan albüm, dinleyicileri bu sorunlar konusunda bilinçlendirerek eleştirel düşünmeye teşvik etmektedir. Müzik ve toplumsal yapı arasındaki çok yönlü ilişkinin disiplinlerarası bir bakış açısıyla incelendiği bu çalışma, müziğin güncel sosyopolitik konuları sorgulayarak dinleyicilere aktarma potansiyelini vurgulamakta ve post-truth olgusunun sanatsal ifadeler üzerindeki etkisine dair anlayışımızı genişletmektedir.

ALIENAÇÃO PARENTAL INVERSA EM IDOSOS: DESAFIOS E PERSPECTIVAS LEGAIS
Authors: Magnavita Isabella Cardoso , Oliveira Matheus Bezerra de
Published: November 2024

A alienação parental inversa em idosos é uma prática danosa que acontece quando cuidadores ou familiares exercem manipulação sobre o idoso, levando-o a romper laços com parentes próximos, o que prejudica sua autonomia e bem-estar emocional. Essa ação é considerada uma violação dos direitos humanos e se manifesta por meio de mentiras e abusos psicológicos, com o intuito de isolar o idoso e controlar seus bens e heranças. O presente artigo examina as repercussões dessa prática nas relações familiares e discute os obstáculos à aplicação das legislações existentes, como o Estatuto do Idoso. A Proposta de Lei nº 1.841/2024 surge como uma alternativa para fortalecer a proteção legal dos idosos, sugerindo punições mais rigorosas para práticas abusivas e ampliando a rede de suporte social. A implementação efetiva dessas medidas é essencial para garantir um envelhecimento digno e respeitoso, que é vital para o bem-estar e a integridade emocional dos idosos. A pesquisa conclui que é fundamental a criminalização da alienação parental inversa, pois esta prática pode causar sérios danos emocionais e prejudicar a convivência familiar. Para que as leis tenham eficácia, é necessário enfrentar desafios como a coleta de provas e as resistências culturais. Ademais, é essencial implementar campanhas de conscientização para educar a população sobre os direitos dos idosos e combater essa prática prejudicial. Portanto, assegurar a proteção dos direitos dos idosos é vital para promover um envelhecimento digno e saudável, mantendo a qualidade de vida e as relações familiares que são cruciais para seu bem-estar.

Published: November 2024

De acordo com a Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), existem mais de 200 doenças transmissíveis que podem ser classificadas como zoonoses, porém devido à falta de conhecimento, criou-se um equívoco de que essas patologias são apenas aquelas com sentido único de transmissão, do animal para o ser humano. A gripe humana (Influenzavirus tipo A), por exemplo, é uma doença viral que pode acometer os ferrets (Mustela putorius furo), classificando-a como uma zooantroponose, isto é, uma doença primariamente humana que pode ser transmitida aos animais. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo analisar o conhecimento sobre zoonoses e conscientizar médicos veterinários e tutores sobre a importância dos cuidados para a prevenção da Influenza A em ferrets.

Abstract. Climate change will bring about changes in meteorological and ecological factors that are currently used in global-scale models to calculate biogenic emissions. By comparing long-term datasets of biogenic compounds to modeled emissions, this work seeks to improve understanding of these models and their driving factors. We compare speciated biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) measurements at the Virginia Forest Research Laboratory located in Fluvanna County, VA, USA, for the year 2020 with emissions estimated by the Model of Emissions of Gases and Aerosols from Nature version 3.2 (MEGANv3.2). The emissions were subjected to oxidation in a 0-D box model (F0AM v4.3) to generate time series of modeled concentrations. We find that default light-dependent fractions (LDFs) in the emissions model do not accurately represent observed temporal variability in regional observations. Some monoterpenes with a default light dependence are better represented using light-independent emissions throughout the year (LDFα-pinene=0, as opposed to 0.6), while others are best represented using a seasonally or temporally dependent light dependence. For example, limonene has the highest correlation between modeled and measured concentrations using an LDF =0 for January through April and roughly 0.74–0.97 in the summer months, in contrast to the default value of 0.4. The monoterpenes β-thujene, sabinene, and γ-terpinene similarly have an LDF that varies throughout the year, with light-dependent behavior in summer, while camphene and α-fenchene follow light-independent behavior throughout the year. Simulations of most compounds are consistently underpredicted in the winter months compared to observed concentrations. In contrast, day-to-day variability in the concentrations during summer months are relatively well captured using the coupled emissions–chemistry model constrained by regional concentrations of NOX and O3.

Abstract. The impact of biomass burning aerosols (BBA) emitted in central Africa on the tropical African climate is studied using the ocean–atmosphere global climate model CNRM-CM, including prognostic aerosols. The direct BBA forcing, cloud feedbacks (semi-direct effects), effects on surface solar radiation, atmospheric dynamics and precipitation are analysed for the 1990–2014 period. During the June–July–August (JJA) season, the CNRM-CM simulations reveal a BBA semi-direct effect exerted on low-level clouds with an increase in the cloud fraction of ∼5 %–10 % over a large part of the tropical ocean. The positive effect of BBA radiative effects on low-level clouds is found to be mainly due to the sea surface temperature response (decrease of ∼0.5 K) associated with solar heating at 700 hPa, which increases the lower-tropospheric stability. Over land, results also indicate a positive effect of BBA on the low-cloud fraction, especially for the coastal regions of Gabon and Angola, with a potentially enhanced impact in these coupled simulations that integrates the response (cooling) of the sea surface temperature (SST). In addition to the BBA radiative effect on SST, the ocean–atmosphere coupled simulations highlight that the oceanic temperature response is noticeable (about −0.2 to −0.4 K) down to ∼80 m depth in JJA between the African coast and 10° W. In parallel to low-level clouds, reductions of ∼5 %–10 % are obtained for mid-level clouds over central Africa, mainly due to BBA-induced surface cooling and lower-tropospheric heating inhibiting convection. In terms of cloud optical properties, the BBA radiative effects induced an increase in the optical depth of about ∼2–3 over the ocean south of the Equator. The result of the BBA direct effect and feedback on tropical clouds modulates the surface solar radiation over the whole of tropical Africa. The strongest surface dimming is over central Africa (∼-30 W m−2), leading to a large reduction in the continental surface temperature (by ∼1 to 2 K), but the solar radiation at the oceanic surface is also affected up to the Brazilian coast. With respect to the hydrological cycle, the CNRM-CM simulations show a negative effect on precipitation over the western African coast, with a decrease of ∼1 to 2 mm d−1. This study also highlights a persistent impact of BBA radiative effects on low-level clouds (increase in cloud fraction, liquid water content and optical depth) during the September–October–November (SON) period, mainly explained by a residual cooling of sea surface temperature over most of the tropical ocean. In SON, the effect on precipitation is mainly simulated over the Gulf of Guinea, with a reduction of ∼1 mm d−1. As for JJA, the analysis clearly highlights the important role of the slow response of the ocean in SON and confirms the need to use coupled modelling platforms to study the impact of BBA on the tropical African climate.
DecTree: a physics-based geochemical surrogate for surface complexation of uranium on clay
Authors: De Lucia Marco
Published: November 2024

Abstract. Geochemistry is usually the computational bottleneck in coupled reactive transport simulations, which hampers the complexity of the systems and of the processes they can investigate. In recent years, promising speedups have been obtained by substituting the numerical solution of geochemical models with approximated surrogates borrowed from artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML). In the framework of the DONUT/EURAD project a set of benchmarks were defined to assess the performance and the accuracy of different surrogate approaches in settings relevant to the safety assessment of nuclear waste repositories, such as the surface complexation and exchange of U(VI) on clay. In this context, this work introduces am original surrogate modelling approach based on recursive partitioning of parameter space, which exploits prior domain knowledge for the training. The surrogate, which can be represented as a decision tree, hence the DecTree name, performs dimensionality reduction by identifying functional relationships between outputs and input variables using a straightforward non-monotonic extension of the Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. New predictions are then interpolated from the partitioned training data. Applied to a low-dimensional geochemical model, DecTree shows virtually no training time and excellent accuracy, ensuring a throughput of around 500 000 predictions per second on a single CPU core.

Abstract. Accurate maps of irrigation extent and dynamics are crucial for studying food security and its far-reaching impacts on Earth systems and the environment. While several efforts have been made to map irrigated area in China, few have provided multiyear maps, incorporated national land surveys, addressed data discrepancies, and considered the fractional coverage of cropland within coarse-resolution pixels. Here, we addressed these important gaps and developed new annual maps of China's irrigated cropland from 2000 to 2020, named CIrrMap250 (China's irrigation map with a 250 m resolution). We harmonized irrigation statistics and surveys and reconciled them with remote sensing data. The refined estimates of irrigated area were then integrated with multiple remote sensing data (i.e. vegetation indices, hybrid cropland products, and paddy field maps) and an irrigation suitability map by means of a semi-automatic training approach. We evaluated our CIrrMap250 maps using ∼ 20 000 reference samples, high-resolution irrigation water withdrawal data, and existing local to nationwide maps. Our CIrrMap250 maps demonstrated an overall accuracy of 0.79–0.88 for the years 2000, 2010, and 2020 and outperformed currently available maps. The CIrrMap250-estimated irrigation area explained 50 %–60 % of the variance in irrigation water withdrawal across China. CIrrMap250 revealed that China's irrigation area increased by about 180 000 km2 (or 25 %) from 2000 to 2020, with the majority (61 %) occurring in the water-unsustainable regions facing severe to extreme water stress. Moreover, our product unveiled a noticeable northward shift of China's irrigation area, attributed to substantial expansions in irrigated cropland across northeastern and northwestern China. The accurate representation of irrigation extent in CIrrMap250 will greatly support hydrologic, agricultural, and climate studies in China, aiding in improved water and land resources management.

Abstract. Supercooled liquid clouds are common at higher latitudes (especially over the Southern Ocean) and are critical for constraining climate projections. We take advantage of the Macquarie Island Cloud and Radiation Experiment (MICRE) to perform an analysis of observed and simulated cloud processes over the Southern Ocean in a region and season dominated by supercooled liquid clouds. Using a single-column version of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Integrated Forecast System (IFS), we compare two different cloud microphysical schemes to ground-based observations of cloud, precipitation, and radiation over a 2.5-month period (1 January–17 March 2017). Both schemes are able to reproduce aspects of the cloud and radiation observations during MICRE to within the uncertainty of the data when the thermodynamic profile is prescribed with relaxation. There are differences in water mass and representation of reflectivity between the schemes. A sensitivity study of the cloud microphysics schemes, one a bulk one-moment scheme and the other a two-moment scheme with prediction of mass and number, indicates that several key processes create differences between the schemes. Surface radiative fluxes and total water path are highly sensitive to the formation and fall speed of precipitation. The prediction of hydrometeor number with the two-moment scheme yields a better comparison with observed reflectivity and radiative fluxes, despite predicting higher liquid water contents than observed. With the two-moment scheme, we are also able to test the sensitivity of the results to the input of liquid cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and ice nuclei (IN). The cloud properties and resulting radiative effects are found to be sensitive to the CCN and IN concentrations. More CCN and IN increase liquid and ice water paths, respectively. Thus, both the dynamic environment and aerosols, integrated through the cloud microphysics, are important for properly representing Southern Ocean cloud radiative effects.

Abstract. This work is showing the performance of Indian Lightning Location Network (ILLN) and lightning characteristics around Lucknow and Shillong India. Observation of ground truth using ordinary camera show the location accuracy of lightning location network. By analysing the optically observed data the average cloud to ground lightning flash detection efficiency is 78.9 percent but some of them misclassified. In addition, throughout the observation in Lucknow, authors found the average inter-stroke intervals were 139.2 ms that ranges from 34 ms to 442 ms. Further, average multiplicity and multi-channel termination of these strokes were 2.3 and 1.2 respectively. The single-stroke flashes were below 23% out of the total number of negative cloud-to-ground flashes. In contrary to the Lucknow, all the flashes observed in Shillong seem single-stroke which have lower return stroke peak currents than Lucknow. This estimation of detection efficiency and characteristics will definitely assist to understand the different scenarios of lightning in plane and hilly area over the country and help to forecasters, and modelers.
