Assessment of the Effect of Pastoral Mobility On Food Security in Semi-Arid Areas Of Simanjiro and Handeni Districts, Tanzania
Authors: Msambichaka Sixbert , Onyango Paul
Published: December 2022

This paper assessed the effect of pastoral mobility on food security to the Maasai in Simanjiro and Handeni districts. The data were collected through literature survey, structured questionnaire, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions and participatory GIS. A total of 367 pastoralist respondents who were part of pastoral mobility and eight extension officers were interviewed, one from each sampled village. The IBM Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20 was used to analyse data. The results showed that most of the respondents, about 61%, indicated that there is no food available for the pastoralists during mobility, which causes them to suffer from food insecurity. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) identified challenges that pastoralists faced during mobility and at the boma, to include livestock death, wild animals’ attacks, and low price of livestock products produced, drought and shortage of forage; poverty, seasonality, shortage of food, poor diet, and poor food storage. The paper concludes that pastoral mobility has an effect on food security since walking long distance searching pasture and water causes livestock to be unhealthy, which lead to poor production of milk and meat. From these results, there is a need to promote development of climate change resilient livestock species in pastoral areas.
Geostatistics for Environmental Scientists
Authors: Msengwa Amina S.
Published: December 2022

There are many theories that are seemly worth linking the environment and statistical methods through a space or space-time sampling framework. A prominent theory of spatial random processes is fully explored in Geostatistics for Environmental Scientists, a book that was first published in 2001, and later revised in a second edition in 2007. The book grasps the definition of ‘Geostatistics’ from a farmer’s imaginary story, to connect it to a soil/environment survey. The soil survey is very important for the authors’ methodology. It is characterized by sampled locations to determine how much is known and how soil/environmental surveys can apply Geostatistics methods to generate estimates and predict values for unknown locations through variogram and covariance.
Assessing 30 Years of Land Use Dynamics in Usangu Catchment, Tanzania
Authors: Kitalika Innocent , Mlengule Digna
Published: December 2022

This paper assesses land use dynamics in the Usangu catchment from 1986 to 2017. It employs historical data search, which include Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper and Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager collected from the United States Geological Survey. Additional data were generated from field observation in specific GPS points for classification accuracy assessment. Visual analysis of land use was carried out with the aid of Google Earth navigation. In-depth interview with key informants served as a useful means of collecting land use information. Landsat images of 1986, 1996, 2006 and 2017 were classified in ArcMap 10.3 under supervised classification technique to produce land use and land cover maps of the particular years. Land use and land cover changes were assessed based on the classified maps for change detection analysis. The results suggest that land use and land cover had a remarkable transformation during the 30 years of the study period. Open bush land gained 4.34% of land from mixed forest in 2006-2017. Water bodies area decreased by 2.4% between 1986 and 1996 due to an increase in bare land by 1.2% in the catchment. Land for agriculture rose by 2.6% in 1996-2006, but declined by 4.5% in 2006-2017. The revealed negative changes in mixed forests, water bodies and open bush land in Usangu catchment result into serious stress on environmental resources. Therefore, this calls up for more conservation efforts by authorities and stakeholders concerned with environmental management issues in the Usangu catchment.
Assessment of Sustainable Indoor Water Management in Mkwawa University College of Education, Tanzania
Authors: Fundisha Evarist
Published: December 2022

Water is an essential natural resource for human life. It is the engine for economic, social, and cultural development. While its availability is influenced by population increase and climate change, its sustainable management is mainly a function of behavioural and technological factors. This paper assesses sustainable indoor water management in Mkwawa University College of Education, Tanzania. It involved a cross-sectional research approach, where the data were collected using questionnaires, field observations, and documentary review methods. Results revealed a sort of unsustainable indoor water management emanating mainly from behavioural and technological factors. Behavioural factors include the use of the bucket for bathing instead of showers (80%) , spending more than 15 minutes in bathing using showers (43%) , and reluctance to report water leakages to responsible authorities (16%) . Technological factors included the lack of water-efficient appliances such as low flow showerheads, toilets, and faucets. It was also found that out of the 769 water appliances observed in the toilets, bathrooms, and laundries, 21% were not working, and 20% were leaking; leading to the use of unsustainable gadgets for the former, and water loss for the latter. Water outage was the main challenge facing students in the College. While behavioural change is recommended to students to minimise water use, the College should install water-efficient appliances and increase water storage facilities for sustainable indoor water management.
Modelling Expansion and Densification in Peri-urban Areas: The Case of Goba Ward, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Authors: Munuo Neema , Matindana Juma
Published: December 2022

Modelling expansion and densification of peri-urban areas may potentially help local authorities and planners to develop intervention strategies for addressing urban planning challenges. This paper employs satellite images information extracted between 2005 and 2020 to predict future expansion and densification trends in Goba ward (Dar es Salaam). 231 grids were established to allow the extraction of data. Each grid was examined from 2005 to 2020 for four periods of five-year intervals. Multiple regression modelling was applied to develop two models (expansion and densification) targeting built-up area and the number of buildings. The results suggest that an increase in the number of buildings will lead to the expansion of a built-up area. High building density in Goba ward has been observed in some areas where economic activities take place (around main centres and main roads). Predictions for expansion and densification show that areas in main centres like Kinzudi, Tegeta A and Goba; and areas around main roads will experience more expansion and densification by 2035. These results inform town planers, decision- and policy-makers to understand the past, current and future situations of expansion and densification; and take proper decisions for enhancing sustainable urban development.

The paper evaluated community-based intervention in the control of artisanal refining against the environment in Niger Delta Region, Nigeria. It further evaluated concept of community-based intervention, artisanal refining and effect of artisanal refining on Niger Delta environments; some of which are pollution, global warming, waste disposal, ocean acidification, loss of biodiversity, deforestation and ozone layer depletion. It also applied analysis approach on how communities intervened in the control of artisanal refining against the environment in Niger Delta Region, Nigeria. Such as; town hall meetings, setting up of standard committees, the use of traditional beliefs and systems, etc. The paper identified few bottlenecks to community-based intervention in the control of artisanal refining against the environment in Niger Delta Region. The study concluded that artisanal refining has adverse effect on man and the environment, so communities must also help in controlling and fighting against artisanal refining and its related activities in the Niger Delta Region, Nigeria. The study recommended that there is need for government to allow both host communities and private investors to establish modular refinery and again, both federal government and its security agencies should be up and doing in providing surveillance jobs for host communities.

PARTICLE TRACKING MODEL OF CONTAMINANT IN A FLOW THROUGH A POROUS MEDIUM TO DETERMINE CONCENTRATION AND DECAY
Authors: KIPROTICH SHEILA , ANGWENYI DAVID , ROTICH TITUS
Published: December 2022

The transport of contaminants in porous media from localised sources such as factories and agricultural farms is a hydro dispersion phenomenon that has been a major topic for more than four decades. Inorganic wastes, primarily non-biodegradable substances from oil spills, human wastes, fertilisers, and other sources, percolates through porous media and eventually finds its way to water bodies and food crops on farms as a result of industrial and agricultural activities.  Some of these substances are harmful to human health and gets to our bodies through the water we drink or the food we eat. This research study aims to formulate a particle tracking mathematical model of contaminant flow through a porous media. The governing equation of three-dimensional concentration distribution in fluid flow through porous media has been formulated using advection-dispersion equation. This equation has been solved analytically and numerically using three-dimensional Finite Difference Algorithm. Simulation to validate solutions is done using data from agricultural chemicals as the source point. Results confirm that the concentration of one time source of contaminant decreases as it diffuses away from the source point with respect to distance and time. The plume evolved horizontally and vertically, with peak concentration at the source, and decays further and downwards due to degradation, reaction and sorption. Particle concentration tracking shows that concentration of 100mg/l at a point source decreases to 0mg/l, after a distance of 300m. For a toxic chemical like sulphur dioxide, glyphosate, and trinidol, if released from a point near borehole or food crops less than 300m, the contaminant can be traced to the drinking water and edible parts of the crop and accumulation in the body may be carcinogenic or cause kidney and liver infections. We recommend that for water pollution minimization, and safe food crops, the source of contaminant should be more than 300m. Additional reaction methods can be used to decompose the contaminant before reaching unwanted places.

Published: December 2022

Bread wheat is an economical important crop for most farmers of Basoliben district. However, the productivity of the crop has been declined from year to year mainly due to the intensity of soil acidity and nutrient depletion. Liming and fertilization has vital role for sustainable crop production. This field experiment was conducted in 2021 main season using factorial combination of five lime rate (0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 t/ha) and three rates of NPSB fertilizer (50, 100 and 150 kg/ha) treatments were laid out in RCBD and replicated three times to determine the optimum application rate. Most crop parameters were highly significantly (p<0.01) affected by main effects of lime and the blended fertilizer but days to heading, number of grains per spikes, grain yield, straw and biomass yield and harvest index were also highly significantly influenced by interaction effect. The delayed matured crop and the longest plant height crops were recorded from maximum application rates while early matured and shortest plant height crop observed from minimum rate. The highest number grains per spike and spike length observed from individual effects of 2 t/ha lime and 150 kg/ha NPSB fertilizer rates. The highest grain yield (5.8 t/ha) recorded from combined 2 t//ha lime and 150 kg/ha NPSB blended fertilizer treatment then followed by the treatment that received combined 3 t/ha lime and 150 NPSB blended fertilizer. However, the highest straw (7.23 t/ha) and biomass (12.86 t/ha) yield was obtained from the combining 3 t/ha lime with150 kg/ha NPSB blended fertilizer but the lowest yields from the control treatment. On the other hand, the economic analysis disclosed that maximum net profit of 110,873 Birr/ha obtained from the treatment received combined 2 t/ha lime and 150 kg/ha NPSB blended fertilizer with acceptable marginal rate of return (27.8%) then followed by dominated treatment (integrated 3 t/ha lime and 150 kg/ha NPSB fertilizer application). Thus, integrated use of 2 t/ha lime with150 kg/ha NPSB blended fertilizer is found optimum for the study area and to the areas with similar agro-ecological conditions. However, as the study of one season, such an investigation has to be repeated over seasons to draw a comprehensive recommendation.

Keinginan para imigran Muslim di Belanda untuk mengenyam pendidikan berbasis budaya dan agama dapat dipahami sebagai upaya untuk melindungi budaya dan identitas mereka sebagai Muslim. Upaya mereka untuk mendirikan madrasah di negeri ini, meskipun dijamin oleh Undang-Undang Dasar Negara, namun pada tataran praktis seringkali sulit diwujudkan. Reaksi dari luar komunitas Muslim dalam masyarakat Belanda seringkali negatif terhadap pendidikan Islam. Pendapat yang saling bertentangan itu kritis dan menganggap pendidikan Islam di Belanda tidak diinginkan karena dapat memperlambat proses integrasi ke dalam masyarakat Belanda. Tulisan ini mengeksplorasi pendidikan Islam di Belanda dari perspektif sejarah, menganalisis faktor-faktor yang menyebabkan realisasinya oleh imigran Muslim di negara ini, dan membahas peran pendidikan Islam dalam masyarakat Belanda.

“Los otros”: impresiones y definiciones de policías de Asunción y Central sobre los compañeros comisionados en el Departamento de Amambay - Paraguay (2022)
Authors: Peris Castiglioni Carlos Anibal
Published: December 2022

El presente artículo científico estudió a la Policía Nacional paraguaya. El mismo pretendió demostrar que la policía nacional fue una corporación edificada por: a) las interacciones diarias, b) internamente disímil por el pensamiento de sus miembros, c) establecida mediante la coyuntura paraguaya. Se indagó a cuatro oficiales que asistieron a un seminario de formación llevado a cabo, en la capital del Paraguay, por una organización no gubernamental a inicios del año 2022. Se les preguntó sobre “el traslado de personal”, más precisamente las ideas previas y las opiniones en el presente con respecto a los compañeros que se desempeñaron en zonas de frontera, especialmente los designados en el Departamento de Amambay. Los entrevistados declararon que sus compañeros en esa zona fueron hombres ambiciosos, sin ética y al servicio de los narcos y la corrupción de los jefes policiales. Estas afirmaciones, de hecho, confirmaron que la entidad policial ha sabido ser, o presentarse socialmente, como un cuerpo unificado y unísono, pero la realidad, sin embargo, mostró que, a partir de una mirada interna, excavando en las ideas individuales, la corporación de seguridad fue un grupo heterogéneo y en una latente tensión.

Published: December 2022

La orientación vocacional y profesiográfica es fundamental en la etapa previa al bachillerato para que, de esa manera, los estudios superiores continúen en forma correlativa. Aunque es verdad para que muchos estudiantes el cansancio de estar toda la infancia, la adolescencia y casi media juventud en aulas representa un estrés, se puede optar por carreras mucho más cortas, carreras técnicas o incluso especialidades que fortalezcan alguna habilidad que ya se posea. Sin embargo, incluso para tomar alguna opción a la educación técnica básica se deben conocer la actitudes, aptitudes, habilidades, intereses y destrezas, las cuales pueden ser la base del proyecto de vida que se quiera llevar adelante en cuanto a los profesionalmente hablando se refiere. Paralelamente, se deben tomar en cuenta factores intrínsecos como la autoestima, los valores, las habilidades desarrolladas y la fuerza de voluntad, o los extrínsecos como la economía, la presión de la sociedad, de los padres de familia e incluso de los amigos que juegan un papel importante no solo al momento de la elección y en la conclusión de esta.

Published: December 2022

Over the past few years, worries about the quality of online learning in higher education have increased. There has not been much research done on the quality of online education. It has been extensively researched how educators and administrators feel about online learning. In this qualitative study, we questioned students from different universities in Pakistan. The interview will be conducted through the WhatsApp video call; our respondents were thirty-five males and thirty-eight females. We interviewed seventy-three students. Materials on paper and online education data were gathered. They examined both the positive and negative aspects of students. They also learned what caused these occurrences. The interviews showed that students liked instructional interfaces that were flexible, inexpensive, based on electronic research, easy to find on the Internet, and well-designed. The students' bad experiences were caused by several things, such as slow teacher feedback, a lack of technical support, a lack of self-control and motivation, a feeling of isolation, repeated teaching methods, and poorly organized course material. The results can help teachers better comprehend how their students feel about online education.
