Decentralized Intestacy Distribution: Exploring Autonomous Systems Leveraging Blockchain Technology
Authors: Chavali, Durga Prasanna
Published: April 2024

Intestate succession is a considerable issue in different judicial systems across the globe, which frequently gives rise to intricate and time-consuming processes of inheritance among heirs. With the advent of blockchain technology, there emerge opportunities for the development of an autonomous system that eliminates the needle barriers in the intestacy distribution process. This paper aims to explore the possibilities of applying decentralized autonomous systems for the revolution of intestacy distribution bringing insights into the design parameters, legal implications, and implementation problems. Having performed a comprehensive literature review, we analyze historical solutions for intestate succession and show how blockchain technology has advanced in the legal context, and review relevant case studies and projects. Our research presents a framework for a decentralized system of intestacy distribution, outlining the role of smart contracts, ledger technology, and identity authentication procedures. We talk about the legal and ethical concerns, implementation processes, and evaluation methods for determining the system's functionality. In the final part of the article, decentralized automated inheritance systems are a whole new paradigm in the area of intestacy laws giving less complicated, transparent, and secure options. Yet, a successful application means overcoming technical, cultural, and legal obstacles with the purpose of creating innovative and standard ways of the future. Keywords—Decentralized Systems, Intestacy Distribution, Blockchain Technology, Autonomous Systems, Smart Contracts, Legal Framework, Implementation Challenges, Ethical Considerations

The huge losses of oil in the subsurface necessitated the search for ways to extract residual oil, which led to the idea of combined use of the practice of mining and oil production. This involves drilling two vertical wellbores in the side rocks on the lying side of the oil reservoir, which are connected by two inter-hole joints. From the upper joint, a full series of wells pass along the entire strike of the formation at a certain interval with depth into the formation, into which steam supply pipes are placed with plugged ends at the bottom of the wells and lateral dispersed holes along their entire length. At the wellhead, these pipes are connected to individual high-pressure pulsating electric steam generators, and the wells themselves at the wellhead and the steam supply pipes are plugged. The electric steam generators are operated in line with a preset program. The most labor-intensive and costly in the idea of combined use of mining and oil production technologies is the sinking of vertical mine shafts, which requires new solutions in mine development technologies. In this regard, it is planned to reduce the cost of mining operations with the purpose of their use in oil production by means of non-explosive continuous mechanical-hydraulic pulse breaking of rocks of any strength and abrasiveness. Keywords: hydraulic pulse breaking of rocks; residual oil recovery technology; minimum diameter shaft sinking; two-jaw grab.

Authors: Ceroni Marta , Farley Joshua
Published: April 2024

The new field of ecological economics recognizes the importance of containing economic growth within the biophysical limits of the biosphere and the need for a new economic model that recognizes and maintains the diversity of functions and species in the planet’s ecosystems (Costanza and Daly 1987, Daly and Farley 2010). This module explains why the current economic model is leading to irreparable depletion of natural capital, and presents ecological economics as a viable alternative for achieving a fair and sustainable biodiversity economy.
Building Marine Reserve Networks to Fit Multiple Needs: An Introduction to Marine Spatial Planning Using SeaSketch
Authors: Gosnell J. Stephen , Lee Minkyung , McClintock Will
Published: April 2024

Marine spatial planning is growing in use as a tool to aid management efforts in coastal and ocean systems. In this exercise, we briefly review the history and rationale behind marine spatial planning and consider its relationship to and use in ecosystem-based management. We then outline an activity that introduces students to marine spatial planning through the use of SeaSketch (http://training-barbuda.seasketch.org). SeaSketch is a web-based program that allows users to create, analyze, and compare how marine protected areas and networks contribute to achieving conservation goals. Building on the use of SeaSketch to engage stakeholders in the creation of reserve networks off the island of Barbuda, students use a SeaSketch training environment to create networks of marine protected areas that meet habitat protection goals and consider how these networks impact local species and human fishing value. After creating and analyzing individual networks, students engage in small- and large-group discussions to consider and compare alternative plans and decide on final choices. At each of these levels, students can compare their chosen plans to the zoning regulations that were approved in Barbuda. A supplementary PowerPoint presentation accompanies the exercise.
Biogeography in Conservation
Authors: Arnillas Carlos , Martin Adam , Ni Felicity , Smith Sandy
Published: April 2024

Humans have now altered essentially every natural ecosystem in the world, and among the numerous consequences of anthropogenic global change, many of the Earth’s species are currently living under drastically different environmental and ecological conditions. On one hand, many species that once thrived in the wild are now threatened by extinction, while at the same time, species that were historically benign are becoming invasive in different parts of the world. To address this major challenge, it is critical that conservation practitioners understand the multiple short- and long-term climatological, geological, and evolutionary mechanisms that have resulted in the current distribution of species; understanding how these same mechanisms interact is also key in predicting species distributions—and possible extinctions—into the future. Using the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), an open-access worldwide database of species occurrences, this research project exercise is designed to guide teams of students through the process of: a) identifying and researching characteristics relevant to understanding species distribution (e.g., age of the group, habitat requirements, dispersal capabilities); b) representing the present and historic species distribution; c) critically assessing the quality and amount of information available; d) using that information to understand species history and potential future challenges the species may either face or impose on the ecosystems; and e) sharing the results with peers and learning from that experience.

Authors: Collins Andrew , Cornelisse Tara , Macey Suzanne , Weckel Mark
Published: April 2024

The world is increasingly urbanized and yet, even in urban areas, humans remain dependent on the ecosystem services that nature provides. This case study-exercise explores selected aspects of the dynamic between humans and urban ecology in three parts. First, we briefly discuss urban ecosystems and the context of biodiversity conservation in urban areas. Then, through a case study of the Million Trees program in New York City, we provide evidence and start a discussion about the possible benefits—as well as potential negative social, ecological, and economic consequences—of urban trees. And finally, we introduce biodiversity conservation in urban green spaces through an exercise on native bees. After reading about the importance of, and threats to, native bees, students take on stakeholder roles to decide if their neighborhood should accept a grant to create and maintain bee habitat in an urban park. Students are tasked with conducting additional research and participating in a classroom town hall meeting to present and support their argument for or against the creation of native bee habitat.

Iconicity in Chinese Sign Language and Filipino Sign Language
Authors: Wang Jianwei
Published: April 2024

Sign language is primarily used as a means of communication by the deaf and hard of hearing. Iconicity is considered as its typical feature. This paper makes a preliminary comparison on lexical items between Chinese Sign Language (CSL) and Filipino Sign Language (FSL) through examining the iconic devices used by the CSL and FSL signs. The study provides some valuable evidence that the iconicity is prevalent in CSL and FSL which always use similar iconic device for the same concept due to shared embodied experience though different iconic devices are occasionally used. These iconic devices include direct (1) presentation; (2) number representation; (3) shape representation; (4) movement representation (5) size representation; (6) part-for-whole representation; (7) metonymic/metaphorical representation. The findings of the research could help to reveal the relationship between language and cognition and make some contributions to the communications among the deaf and hard of hearing in both Chian and the Philippines.

Published: April 2024

Executive function skills are crucial for children in the 21st century, serving as indicators of their readiness for learning. Children with well-developed executive function skills can effectively accomplish various tasks, solve problems using diverse strategies, and collaborate with others happily. This research aims to: 1. Identify the necessity for fostering executive function skills among early childhood students in Nonthaburi Province. 2. Analyze the causes underlying the necessity to promote executive function skills in early childhood students. 3. Propose strategies to enhance executive function skills in early childhood students. The research consists of two phases. Phase 1 involves identifying the necessity for developing executive function skills among early childhood students, with a sample group comprising 12 volunteer kindergarten teachers randomly selected from 12 classrooms and 328 early childhood students aged 5 to 5 years 11 months (162 boys and 166 girls). The research instrument used is the MU.EF-101 assessment. Data analysis involves calculating the mean and standard deviation of T-scores for working memory, inhibitory control, and shift/cognitive flexibility. Phase 2 analyzes the causes of necessity and proposes strategies to promote executive function skills in early childhood students. The data sources for this phase are 12 teachers, and the research instruments include fishbone diagram recording forms and group discussion recording forms. Findings suggest that parental involvement is crucial in training children to perform tasks independently and in teaching children patience. Additionally, teachers should analyze children's behaviors to plan appropriate learning activities based on their context. Teachers must encourage children to think and make decisions independently, encourage when mistakes occur, and ensure the availability of suitable tools and toys that promote the development of executive function skills in early childhood students, which teachers or parents can conveniently utilize.
Gender Data Gaps in Agriculture and Land Ownership: Uncovering the Blind Side of Policymaking
Authors: Shah Mahiya , S Soumya
Published: April 2024

With the introduction of the Sustainable Development Goals in 2015, world leaders have pledged to gender equality by mainstreaming gender into national statistical strategies and prioritising data collection. This makes it evident that the role of data in society is enormous, despite its effects being seemingly invisible in plain sight. In a country like India, where more than half the population engages in the agricultural sector, most of whom are women, accurate data on gender inequality in land ownership is vital for gauging progress on women’s economic empowerment. Despite this, a glaring gender-data gap is visible concerning women in agriculture. Studies have not been able to assess the full extent of this gap, primarily because the current estimates based on national-level data sets can be limited or severely misleading. The limitations of currently available data are reflected in inconsistent datasets and policies that neglect the contribution of women on farms and deprive them of land rights, which in effect, ignores their unique position in society and the economy. This paper, while exploring the intersections of gender and religion, discusses the importance of bridging the gender-data gap in policymaking and the ill effects of the same not being done by examining the plight of the invisible female farmers in India. It also briefly looks into the missing data on land owned by women whilst exploring the complexities caused due to personal laws, which deprive them of basic rights meant to be available to titleholders.
Privacy and Reproductive Health: Curtailing Rights and Choices
Authors: Tandon Ambika
Published: April 2024

Digital identification (ID) and data-driven systems have become central to the delivery of welfare and health services in the global South. These policies are designed to monitor and control developmental indicators, with some negative repercussions for women. They also impact the exercise of reproductive rights and access to health and welfare, in addition to informational privacy. This paper aims to understand the various axes along which digitalisation and data collection systems impact the exercise of the right to privacy, including reproductive rights. It focuses on two specific services that have been a target of digital and analog monitoring over the past decade – conditional cash transfers tied to maternal health, and abortion services. Through interviews with women patients, their families, and health providers in New Delhi, it found that monitoring systems can restrict women’s access to critical services. Extensive procedural requirements introduced for better targeting of welfare schemes, such as Aadhaar linked bank accounts and income and caste certifications acted as significant barriers to access. These requirements particularly impacted women who carry stigma when accessing abortion services, including poor and unmarried women, and adolescents. Health providers were forced to prioritise data collection over inclusive delivery of services. Data collection for Aadhaar-linked databases without informed consent was rampant, with repercussions for women’s informational privacy. Reproductive rights and various dimensions of privacy, including informational privacy and decisional autonomy are thus intrinsically linked. Future research on digital health needs to further probe these interlinkages and broaden the definition of the right to privacy.

De invloed van bepalingen op het toezicht

De effectiviteit van toezicht wordt niet alleen bepaald door de toezichtstijl. Ook de bepalingen zelf die moeten worden nageleefd en die het primaire object van toezicht vormen, hebben invloed op de effectiviteit van toezicht. In deze bijdrage worden de resultaten van een casestudie gepresenteerd die is uitgevoerd naar het evenementenbeleid van een gemeente. De conclusie is dat de toename van het aantal bepalingen een toename van ingezette toezichtcapaciteit tot gevolg heeft. Daarnaast blijkt dat hoe meer regels er zijn, des te kleiner de kans is dat al die regels ook worden nageleefd.

Multifaceted decision support analysis of risk assessment in the process of transporting feed by rail transport using the FMEA method
Authors: Krześniak Miroslaw , Szaciłło Lucyna
Published: April 2024

The article presents selected aspects regarding transporting goods intended for animal feeding. The transport of this type of cargo must meet trade safety requirements and be monitored at every stage of the transport chain. The safety of transport of this type of goods is given priority because possible contamination of feed could affect the quality of food products and threaten human health. The authors referred to the reasons for creating an international procedure regarding, among others, the transport of this group of goods, limiting the risks mentioned above. The proposed procedure is a response to various incidents of feed contamination. It was introduced as an internal system and then developed internationally. The article points to the multi-threaded nature of topics related to the risk management process during the transport of feed intended for animal feeding by rail. This article presents an approach to this issue that considers a multi-aspect analysis of decision support. Risk assessment in transporting feed by rail is an essential factor influencing safety in trade. The article presents the FMEA method, which enables decision support analysis considering non-compliance risk. The recommended method that enables the examination of transport processes for this group of goods is the analysis of the types and effects of possible errors. The task solved using the FMEA method is fed by historical data, the transport task, and the FMEA methodology. Three elements are analyzed - the significance of non-compliance, the risk of non-compliance, and the possibility of detecting non-compliance. They enable quantification and determination of a risk priority number. If the acceptable risk level is exceeded, changes are made to the transport task. The article broadly refers to aspects of risk analysis, which allows you to manage the transport process.

Published: April 2024

A espondilose é uma enfermidade degenerativa óssea crônica que acomete a coluna vertebral mais observada na região das vértebras lombares em animais idosos. Esta proliferação é formada por tecido ósseo e pode atingir inervações adjacentes provocando nocicepção exacerbada e quadros de dor. Em casos raros, os espôndilos podem acometer os forames intervertebrais, ocasionando compressão de raízes nervosas e sinais neurológicos. Os sinais clínicos comumente observados são dor em coluna, dificuldade de subir em escadas, quadros de inapetências e paresia parcial ou total. O diagnóstico é baseado nos achados clínicos e exames de imagem. A radiografia simples é o exame frequentemente realizado. A projeção laterolateral é a mais indicada para o diagnóstico de espondilose. Visibilizam-se, em estágios iniciais, pequenas projeções calcificadas em forma de gancho. Em animais gravemente acometidos, a neoformação óssea é bem pronunciada, podendo ocorrer a formação de pontes ósseas e anquilose de vértebras adjacentes. A projeção ventrodorsal é útil nos casos em que há sobreposição de espôndilos, bem como para visibilização de espôndilos laterais. Outros sinais radiográficos podem também incluir o espessamento de placas terminais e estreitamento do espaço intervertebral discal, sendo que tais alterações podem estar associadas a degeneração discal.O presente caso relata um canino, fêmea, sem raça definida, 14 anos de idade, pesando 30kg que chegou no Hospital Veterinário da Universidade de Marília com queixa de paresia dos membros, constipação intensa, dispneia, apatia e presença de edema generalizado de membros. Ao exame radiográfico foi possível observar a presença de pontes ósseas denominadas de espondilose anquilosante em toda região torácica, lombar e sacral do animal. O presente trabalho tem como o objetivo relatar a ocorrência de um quadro clínico de espondilose anquilosante em toda extensão de coluna vertebral em uma cadela e o quão importante é o exame complementar de imagem, radiografia, para o diagnóstico, tratamento e prognóstico do paciente.

Published: April 2024

Field experiments were conducted during 2018–19, 2019–20 and 2020–21 at ICAR-Central Plantation Crops Research Institute, Kasaragod, Kerala for assessment of biocontrol fungi for the management of root-knot nematode (RKN), Meloidogyne incognita damaging turmeric (Cucuma longa L.) (cv. IISR-Prathibha) under coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) cropping system. Treatments included talc-based formulations of Trichoderma harzianum (ICAR- Indian Institute of Spices Research (IISR), Kerala and ICAR-Central Plantation Crops Research Institute (CPCRI), Kerala isolates) and Pochonia chlamydosporia (ICAR-Indian Institute of Spices Research, Kerala isolate), neem cake, marigold and carbosulfan 25 ec (standard check). Talc-based formulations were applied at 50 g/bed, neem cake @1 kg/bed at pre-monsoon and post-monsoon, marigold @30 plants/bed compared with untreated and standard check carbosulfan 25 ec @5 litre/bed at pre-monsoon and post-monsoon against M. incognita. Maximum reduction of RKN in the soil, as well as root, was achieved by either P. chlamydosporia (74 and 86%, respectively) or carbosulfan (67 and 87%, respectively) over the control. A number of the tillers (3.75/plant) for P. chlamydosporia and (3.23/ plant) for carbosulfan were recorded more in comparison to control (1.42/plant). The findings demonstrated that P. chlamydosporia (ICAR-Indian Institute of Spices Research) is a promising alternative to synthetic nematicides for the management of M. incognita due to its high antagonistic and good plant growth promotion activities. However, large scale field trials on these promising fungal biocontrol agents can be considered for evaluation in relation to the management of RKN under field conditions for confirmation.

In India, spot blotch disease caused by Bipolaris sorokiniana is one of the major constraints in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) production. The present study was carried out during 2022–23 at ICAR-Indian Agriculture Research Institute, New Delhi to identify promising biocontrol agents, which can act as eco-friendly alternatives to chemicals against Bipolaris sorokiniana inciting spot blotch on barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). In this study, 18 isolates of Trichoderma asperellum, 15 isolates of Trichoderma harzianum and 5 bacterial species were tested against B. sorokiniana under in vitro and in planta conditions. In the dual culture assays, Trichoderma asperellum 8686 and Trichoderma asperellum 8687 showed significantly highest per cent disease inhibition of 71.73% and 71.37% respectively. Among bacterial strains, Pseudomonas fluorescens and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens showed significantly good per cent disease inhibition of 64.09% and 57.09% respectively. B. subtilis and Pantoea spp. did not show any pathogen inhibition. In addition, the superior bioagents were also screened out. In the studies on in planta assays, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (per cent disease control-55.19%) was found most effective for seed treatment against B. sorokiniana. Post-inoculation with biocontrol agents revealed that Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was at par with Trichoderma asperellum and Pseudomonas fluorescens against B. sorokiniana. Additionally, a combination of seed treatment, pre and post-inoculation treatment of biocontrol agents revealed that Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Trichoderma asperellum 8686 were at par with Trichoderma harzianum (Pusa Th3) against B. sorokiniana. Overall, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was more effective and consistent to manage spot blotch disease.

Latar belakang: Proporsi remaja di Indonesia yang tidak merokok jauh lebih sedikit ketimbang remaja yang telah merokok. Maka dari itu, penting untuk menjaga agar remaja tersebut tidak menjadi perokok nantinya di masa depan. Hal ini dapat dilakukan menilai kerentanan remaja untuk merokok yang dapat dilihat dari determinannya.
Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui determinan kerentanan remaja untuk merokok.
Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan data sekunder the Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) 2019. Populasi pada penelitian ini adalah remaja yang duduk di bangku sekolah dan sampel yang digunakan adalah remaja yang bukan perokok secara aktif. Setelah mengeliminasi data yang tidak lengkap dan jawaban yang ambigu, sejumlah 6220 data remaja dianalisis dengan metode kai kuadrat untuk analisis bivariat dan regresi logistic untuk analisis multivariat.
Hasil: Hasil analisis multivariat mendapatkan bahwa jenis kelamin (p-value= 0,000; aOR= 2,927; 95% CI= 2,493—3,437); pajanan terhadap rokok di rumah (p-value= 0,000; aOR= 0,644; 95% CI= 0,542—0,766); pajanan terhadap rokok di luar rumah (p-value= 0,000; aOR= 0,558; 95% CI= 0,446—0,699); sikap terhadap larangan merokok di tempat umum tertutup (p-value= 0,000; aOR= 0,576; 95% CI= 0,433—0,749); dan pengetahuan terhadap pajanan rokok sekunder (p-value= 0,000; aOR= 2,327; 95% CI= 1,623—3,338) berasosiasi secara statistic terhadap kerentanan untuk merokok.
Kesimpulan: Analisis multivariat menjelaskan bahwa jenis kelamin adalah faktor yang paling dominan yang dapat menjelaskan kerentanan untuk merokok. Kedepannya, intervensi dapat memperhatikan jenis kelamin serta menekankan akan larangan merokok di rumah dan di tempat-tempat umum serta memasukkan bahaya tentang merokok ke kurikulum.
