Asola Bhatti wildlife sanctuary-A case study of ecological restoration
Authors: Goel Versha , Rath Rita
Published: November 2022

The Aravalli range is one of the oldest mountain systems of the world. It is a 560 km range, starting from a location near Delhi, passing through Southern Haryana, Rajasthan and ending in Gujarat. It has a unique biodiversity. In the last two to three decades, there has been a destruction of natural habitats and ecosystems due to the development of bursting infrastructure and hence, an urgent need for ecological restoration. Studies indicate that 40% of our country needs ecological restoration. The Asola Wildlife Sanctuary zone covers 32.71km2 area on the southern Delhi Ridge of Aravalli hills, on the Delhi-Haryana border. Asola Wildlife Sanctuary was legally given protected status in 1986. On world environment day, June 5, 2021, UN declared 2021-2030 a decade on Ecosystem Restoration. The Bonn challenge is a global challenge to restore landscape, launched in 2011 by the Government of Germany and the International Union of Conservation of Nature. Due to the Supreme Court of India mandate in 2011, Government of India, defined Eco Sensitive Zones to limit the adverse anthropogenic activities on the ecosystem, biodiversity and natural resources. Several efforts have been made to restore Asola-Bhatti Wildlife Sanctuary area by planting saplings, rainwater harvesting, restoration of degraded land and habitat, agroforestry, herbal plantations, use of solar energy, organic farming, etc. In spite of all these efforts, there are still certain challenges that need to be addressed. Some of them are the lack of a protective wall, the absence of safe corridors for wildlife crossing, environmental pollution caused by Bandhwari landfill and water scarcity. There is also an official denial of presence of wildlife in the area, so that the forest land can be exploited. A futuristic approach for restoration could be use of microbes that improves the quality of the soil and hence the vegetation and biodiversity. A continuous reduction in the forest cover over the years and an increase in agriculture and settlement, resulting in more human-wildlife conflict has become the most important issue in conservation. Efforts are thus required towards ecological restoration, following a natural progression and assistive regeneration along with working on the threats (urbanisation, policy threats, cutting of trees) to prevent further degradation of the forest after restoration.

Authors: Dr. JIANG Sheng, Dr. Bilal Zubair, Jahanzeb Khan
Published: November 2022

The Sino-Pakistan relationship is the epitome of enduring and time-tested friendships, despite the diverse culture and social system. Soon after the formation of the Peoples Republic of China, Pakistan recognized the PRC and established diplomatic relations with it in 1951. The Sino-Pakistan all-weather friendship is manifested in cultural exchange programs that have enhanced people-to-people contact between the two countries. With the establishment of formal diplomatic ties between the two countries in 1951, cultural linkages started to grow. Pakistan and China enjoy a seven decade-old friendship. The promotion of cultural communication between the peoples of the two countries has been one of the areas of focus. This research paper seeks to examine the cultural linkage between China and Pakistan. Religious coexistence, ceremonial, social stratification among genders, socialization, arts, graphics, and architecture characterizes the cultures of the two countries. Over the past decade, the two countries have taken concrete measures to promote cultural linkages between them. Initiatives have been taken to promote cultural connections between the peoples of the two countries under the CPEC, which is a flagship project of BRI. The study focuses on both cultures, analyzing historical connections and the most recent trends in cultural ties between the PRC and Pakistan.

A Methodological Shift in Favor of (Some) Paraconsistency in the Sciences
Authors: Martínez-Ordaz María del Rosario
Published: November 2022

Many have contended that non-classical logicians have failed at providing evidence of paraconsistent logics being applicable in cases of inconsistency toleration in the sciences. With this in mind, my main concern here is methodological. I aim at addressing the question of how should we study and explain cases of inconsistent science, using paraconsistent tools, without ruining into the most common methodological mistakes. My response is divided into two main parts: first, I provide some methodological guidance on how to approach cases of inconsistent science; and second, I focus on a peculiar type of formal methodologies for the scrutiny of inconsistent reasoning, the Paraconsistent Alternative Approach (henceforth, PAA) and argue that PAA can enhance a more accurate understanding of sensible reasoning in inconsistent contexts.

Program, Tonality, and Sonata Deformation in Leopoldo Miguéz’s Symphonic Poems
Authors: Dudeque Norton
Published: November 2022

The aim of this text is to address Leopoldo Miguéz (1850–1902) approach to sonata form in his three symphonic poems. Each one of these works presents a different approach to the rhetorical musical discourse of sonata form and a specific “deformation” of the form. The normative model of sonata form to be considered is presented by Hepokoski and Darcy (2006) and by comparing each one of Miguéz’s works with this model we may identify his approach to the form. In addition, characteristics of tonal and thematic compositional practice of the late 19th-century German music such as double-tonic complex and thematic transformation may be observed in these works, suggesting that Miguéz was aware of and willingly adopted such procedures in his music.

Published: November 2022

With the rise of digital evolution as a new approach to teaching and learning, coupled with the current COVID-19 global pandemic where students are granted enormous autonomy throughout their learning process, the need for students to develop self-regulated learning (SRL) skills is even more urgent. Moreover, extensive studies found that the current global pandemic has impacted students’ motivation for learning, particularly when information technology infrastructure and facilities are lacking and social support from lecturers and peers is limited. This study was carried out to explore the relationship between students’ motivational beliefs and self-regulated learning. The study adopted a quantitative study involving 142 students. An analysis of the survey adapted from Pintrich and De Groot (1990) reveals that there is a highly positive and significant association between motivational beliefs and self-regulated learning. The study acknowledges collaborative learning as a recent intervention in improving students’ learning experiences. As such, it is recommended that future research can explore how collaborative learning excites students’ SRL skills and strategies, particularly in the post-pandemic period.
Relación de los niveles de Testosterona con el comportamiento del Toro Bravo durante la Lidia
Authors: Lomillos Juan Manuel , Alonso Marta Elena
Published: November 2022

Diversos estudios relacionan la concentración plasmática de testosterona con un comportamiento agresivo del animal. En ellos se han estudiado diferentes especies animales, pero se desconoce cómo es esta relación en el toro de lidia, perteneciente a una raza bovina singular por su selección etológica hacia la agresividad. En este trabajo se analizó de forma objetiva el comportamiento en el ruedo de 302 machos adultos de la raza bovina de lidia. Se registraron 33 parámetros etológicos, el número y gravedad de las caídas experimentadas por el animal y el tiempo de las cuatro fases del espectáculo, para correlacionar dicha información con la concentración plasmática de testosterona. Los resultados mostraron diferencias en la media de concentración plasmática de testosterona entre ganaderías y entre las líneas genéticas de procedencia estudiadas en la muestra. Igualmente se constata una correlación positiva entre la concentración de testosterona y un grupo de ocho parámetros etológicos, que señalan ejercicio físico del animal; por otro lado se observó una correlación negativa con los parámetros etológicos: “sale suelto”, “querencia” y “tardea”, sinónimos de falta de casta, lo que podría indicar una correlación positiva entre la testosterona y la agresividad, como indica la bibliografía.

Published: November 2022

The objectives of the study were to evaluate the current status of paclobutrazol (PBZ) used for flowering treatment for durian cultivation in Tien Giang and Ben Tre provinces and to analyze residual PBZ in the soil as a basis for recommending the use of PBZ. In each province, 60 households were directly interviewed by prepared questionnaires. Then, 15 selected households with continuous use of the PBZ for at least 5 years in durian cultivation to conduct soil sampling at depths of 0 to 20, 20 to 40, and 40 to 60 cm at the canopy edge and one-half of the canopy diameter for analysis of PBZ residue. The results of the study revealed that there were 65.0% of households in Tien Giang province and 18.3% of households in Ben Tre province using PBZ higher than the recommended level, viz., the average concentrations of PBZ used in Tien Giang and Ben Tre were 1,816 ppm and 1,240 ppm, respectively. The highest average PBZ concentration in the soil was taken at the canopy edge at a depth of 0 to 20 cm, reaching 1.036 mg per kg (Tien Giang province) and 0.480 mg per kg (Ben Tre province). There was no residual PBZ in the soil samples collected at one-half of the canopy diameter at a depth of 40 to 60 cm.
Reported speech in Aviation English: an analysis through two specific corpora
Authors: Pacheco Aline
Published: November 2022

Aviation English is a specialized language and, as such, features some specific structures that should be carefully analyzed to be dealt with appropriately. Reported Speech (RS) constitutes an essential communicative function for pilots and controllers because they must often relay information to different parties in complex communication scenarios. Regarding the teaching and learning of RS, the most traditional orientation is that it should observe tense backshifting - the possibilities of not shifting back the tense seem to be treated as exceptions, even in specialized coursebooks. This study discusses the use of RS in aeronautical communications by analyzing the occurrences of this structure in two specialized corpora – CORPAC, the Corpus of Pilot and ATC Communications and RTPEC, the Radiotelephony and Plain English Corpus, examining reporting verbs used in actual conversation samples and strictures after the verbs ‘said’ and ‘told’. The main findings show the most used reporting verbs and suggest that around 50% of the indirect reported clauses in aviation maintain the original tense, which seems to be evidence that pilots and ATCs choose to report no changes in the scenario when relaying information in a similar proportion to choosing to backshift. Accordingly, teaching and learning resources like specialized coursebooks or tailordesigned materials should factor the real communication features in their activities.
Mingled in the crowd: A new Megastomia from eastern Mediterranean Sea (Gastropoda: Pyramidellidae)
Authors: Nofroni Italo , Renda Walter , Vannozzi Angelo
Published: November 2022

The genus Megastomia Monterosato, 1884 includes five known species in the Mediterranean Sea. However, examination of several specimens from eastern Mediterranean revealed the presence of a further species, which is here described as Megastomia crovatoi n. sp. In order to ascertain whether this species is native, we examined several samplings from both the Red Sea and other Indo-West Pacific localities and carried out a detailed survey of the literature dealing with Indo-West Pacific odostomiins. As a result, we have to conclude that, to the best of our knowledge, the new species is native to the Mediterranean Sea. We compare the new species with the other congeners occurring in the Mediterranean Sea and illustrate the type material of four similar species described in 1924 by Hornung & Mermod from Eritrea, originally placed in the genus Syrnola, i.e., Megastomia bedoti, M. broti, M. gestroi and M. lorioli.

MATHEMATICAL MODELING APPLIED TO ASSESS THE DRIVING FACTORS OF INCREASING ROAD ACCIDENTS IN BANGLADESH
Authors: Biswas Ankona , Tasnim Kefayat , Biswas Md. Haider Ali
Published: November 2022

In today's world, particularly in developing nations, traffic safety is one of the most pressing challenges. Every single day, traffic accidents alone claim hundreds of lives across all nations and regions. Besides rapid development in the transportation sector, road accidents are also increasing day by day. Therefore, every government has regarded it as one of the crucial issues and as the first big issue that has to be resolved. To lessen the number of accidents on the roads and the harm they cause, necessary actions have been implemented. We discovered that it is impracticable and time-consuming to investigate the contributing elements behind vehicle accidents since vast amounts of statistical data are required. In this paper, we develop a dynamical model to describe the dynamics of the traffic accident. Accidents are mostly caused by negligent or inexperienced drivers and defective machinery. We have described the dynamics in terms of a system of four ordinary differential equations with four state variables and parameters. We have developed a mathematical model that can estimate the number of fatal traffic accidents. In order to validate the model, we looked at the positivity of the solutions, equilibrium points, stability of the equilibrium points, and other relevant analytical studies. In order to demonstrate the validity of our study, we ran a numerical simulation using parameter values that were verified from reliable sources.
TOWARDS AN ALTERNATIVE PLANNING PERSPECTIVE FOR HOUSEHOLD SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT IN URBAN INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS: THE CASE OF KHULNA, BANGLADESH
Authors: Doni Nilufar Shabnom , Mostafa Anirban , Jahan Hasin
Published: November 2022

The scope of spatial planning within a community scale for household solid waste management (HHSWM) in space-constraint situations like urban informal settlements is almost absent in waste management studies, and this study fills the gap. In Bangladesh, most of the fast-growing cities with a high population density have no significant solid waste management (SWM) system, and the municipal services are incompatible. Along with several socio-economic and awareness issues, one of the major difficulties for urban informal settlements is connecting the SWM system with the municipal waste collection service because of the highly congested spatial arrangements and lack of accessibility. It is evident through several studies that decentralized waste treatment is one of the most effective solutions to a fast-growing waste management crisis. This study aims to investigate an alternative in situ approach from spatial planning dimensions for the HHSWM in informal settlements in Khulna, the southern metropolitan city of Bangladesh. The methods comprise investigation data from observations, built environment mapping, spatial analysis, key personal interviews, and focused group discussions with stakeholders. The finding contributes to a spatial planning framework for HHSWM in informal settlements that incorporate multiple benefits, like waste-to-income opportunities, reducing pressure on municipal services and maintaining a healthy and hygienic living environment.

The style of learning refers to the way an individual gains and applies creativity to acquire skills or knowledge. Teachers are accountable for delivering high-quality instruction. As a result, teachers must be able to create an engaging learning environment that draws students' attention to the material being taught. This study will explore the advantages of the VARK (Visual, Aural, Reading or Writing, and Kinesthetic) paradigm as a very effective learning approach. The study's purpose was to investigate whether there is a significant correlation between learning preferences of first-year undergraduate pre-service teachers using the VARK model and their age and programme of study. The population of the participants is 219 students in the B. Ed programme in St. Teresa’s College of Education in Ghana. The purposive sampling was used to select participants for the study however, only 176 of them conveniently responded to the questionnaire. Of these 39 were Early Childhood Education (ECE) students, 116 Primary Education (PE) students and 21 Home Economics (HE) students. The VARK Questionnaire (Version 8.01) was adopted and used for data collection. Descriptively, it was noted that 22(12.5%) of the participants prefer Visual learning only, and 37(21.0%), 19(10.8%) prefer Aural, Reading/Writing and Kinesthetic learning only respectively. Meanwhile, some participants indicated that they prefer learning in more than one of the models, thus 30(25.6%) 13(7.4) and 10(5.7) prefer learning in Bimodal, Trimodal Quadrimodal respectively. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) with varimax rotation was conducted to assess the underlying structure for the 16 items of the VARK learning model. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) of the main effect of age and programme of study on the VARK learning model of the pre – service teachers were assed. It was found that there is statistically significance difference between the mean scores of the pre – service teachers in the age brackets of 18-23 and 24-29 years of the study (F1, 174 =.001, p < .05). There was a statistically significant difference between programmes of study as determined by one-way ANOVA (F (2,173) = 8.457, p = .001). A Tukey post hoc test revealed that using the VARK learning model there was statistically significantly difference between PE (3.09 ± 1.5, p = .001) and ECE pre – service teachers (4.15 ± 1.7, p = .001) but not PE and HE pre – service teachers (3.75 ± 1.05, p = .301) programmes of study. Again, there was no statistically significant difference between the ECE and HE programme of study (p = .646). It is therefore, recommended teachers should vary their lessons to meet the needs and learning styles of all learnings by the VARK instructional tools or resources.

Existen diferentes enfoques que permiten transferir conocimientos, en particular tecnologías agropecuarias. Sin embargo, la eficiencia de muchos de ellos es cuestionada al no considerar la participación de productores, por ello, el proyecto BioPaSOS (Biodiversidad y Paisajes Ganaderos Agrosilvopastoriles Sostenibles) optó por utilizar las Escuelas de Campo (ECA) como principal mecanismo para la transferencia de conocimientos.

En México se practica ampliamente la ganadería extensiva, la cual contribuye a la degradación de las pasturas y suelos, a la pérdida de la biodiversidad y a exacerbar los efectos negativos del cambio climático (Zepeda-Cancino et al., 2016). La reconversión productiva, el paso de una ganadería extensiva a una ganadería sustentable es una alternativa para minimizar los impactos negativos de la producción ganadera sobre el ambiente y de contribuir a mejorar la calidad de vida de los productores.

Published: November 2022

Background: Scapular dyskinesis is considered a risk factor for the shoulder pain that may warrant screening for prevention. Clinicians of all experience screen scapular dyskinesis using the scapular dyskinesis test yes-no classification (Y-N), yet its reliability in asymptomatic individuals is unknown. We aimed to establish Y-N’s intra- and inter-reliability between students and expert physical therapists.Methods: We utilized a cross-sectional design using consecutive asymptomatic subjects. Six students and two experts rated 100 subjects using the Y-N. Cohen’s kappa (κ) and Krippendorff’s alpha (K-α) were calculated to determine intra- and inter-rater reliability.Results: Intra- and inter-rater values for experts were κ=0.92 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.91–0.93) and 0.85 (95% CI, 0.84–0.87) respectively; students were κ=0.77 (95% CI, 0.75–0.78) and K-α=0.63 (95% CI, 0.58–0.67).Conclusions: The Y-N is reliable in detecting scapular dyskinesis in asymptomatic individuals regardless of experience.
Supernatural Morality in Berkeley'sPassive Obedience
Authors: Airaksinen Timo
Published: November 2022

Berkeley's Passive Obedience presents a fragment of morality. Moral duties are dictated by divine natural laws that the good God gives to all people. This justifies morality but may not motivate right conduct. Only God's commands may properly motivate the agent. Morality guides people from this unhappy world to heaven and has political consequences, especially the citizen's duties of obedience and loyalty to a supreme political authority. Loyalty and obedience to God are virtues that earn eternal happiness. Berkeley is a divine-command theorist who supports a morality focused on a heavenly reward. His moral reflections serve political ends.

In this article, I shall analyze Schopenhauer's conception of Buddhism in the context of the Western reception of Buddhism from the seventeenth century onwards. I will focus on Schopenhauer's notion of the Buddhist palingenesis and provide an overview of the Buddhist sources Schopenhauer read before the publication of the second edition of his main work The World as Will and Representation in 1844.
Following the People, Refracting Hindustani Music, and Critiquing Genre-Based Research
Authors: Morcom Anna
Published: November 2022

Ethnomusicologists and Indian musicologists have overwhelmingly studied Hindustani music as classical music, focusing on khyal, dhrupad, and instrumental solo, and its transmission in lineages. In my research, rather than following genre, I followed people, a ground-up method that equates to basic principles of practice theory. Focusing on the extended family of the Rampur-Sahaswan gharana, known for khyal, I looked for musicians regardless of the kind of music they were doing. This brought numerous “hidden musicians” (Finnegan 1989) and genres into view as an integral part of a “classical” lineage: singers of ghazal, qawwali, fusion, or commercial music. The greatest musicians of the past were in fact not “classical” ones, but versatile or chaumukhi artistes who sang “all genres.” My approach is also historical and political-economic, focusing on the lives and livelihoods of musicians and mobility. This enables me to map Hindustani music not just in the famous centers where classical music flourishes today, but in smaller cities and towns. Inspired in particular by Erik Wolf's (1982) history of capitalism, which revealed cultures and societies as interrelated and unbounded, I explore the shifts in and connections of centers and peripheries of Hindustani music—for example, the key role played by semi-classical and light genres in sustaining classical music. I critique genre as a frame for research, showing it as contributing to an ongoing process of classicizing Hindustani music. I show Hindustani music, rather, to be a sprawling, unbounded, but organically interconnected phenomenon created by people and their navigation of life's opportunities, resources, and structures.
Making the Schoolhouse Rock: A Content Analysis of Two Popular Music Pedagogies
Authors: Jones Sara K. , Derges Julie D.
Published: November 2022

In popular music education, there has been an increase in the amount of literature, pedagogical resources, and organizations that are available, and two pedagogical approaches for teaching popular music are informal music learning (IML) and modern band (MB). However, there is little existing scholarly critical analysis comparing these approaches. The purpose of this qualitative directed content analysis was to explore the similarities and differences between IML and MB in kindergarten through 12th-grade settings and examine how major characteristics of each approach are represented in scholarly and curricular resources. While similarities exist in the literature on these approaches, there are also distinct differences between them, such as orientation toward process or performance, use of composition and improvisation, and teacher role and approach. Moreover, the representation of the principles of both IML and MB were not always consistent in the resources we examined, with some aspects highly represented and others rarely mentioned. Learning more about both approaches could be beneficial to scholars and teachers interested in popular music pedagogy and how they are implemented in classrooms.
The Defense of the Polish Second Republic
Authors: Czarnecki Jacek
Published: November 2022

This article describes Polish defensive preparations against the German invasion in 1939, pointing to some of the shortcomings of criticism in the historiography. Due to economic and industrial conditions in Poland in the interwar years, an alliance had to be made with the French and British governments in regards to a potential war with Germany. Not only did the lack of enthusiasm for providing loans and matériel by the French and British influence the German decision of aggression, but once the attack became imminent, the pressure not to mobilize jeopardized the whole defensive strategy. Nevertheless, even in the middle of September 1939 Polish soldiers remained resilient and optimistic, yet the continued failure of the allies to support Poland in accordance with agreements, and ultimately the invasion by the Soviet Union put an end to any hope of further defense.
