The Lagunas de Campillos Natural Reserve and adjacent ponds are fundamentally surrounded by regularly fertilized crop fields and livestock industry, producing leachates which can be found in the ponds. The interest in this Site of European Importance and the RAMSAR wetland complex lies in the habitats within it, which are included in the Directive on Habitats of Community Interest. It is essential to determine the trophic status of the ponds and the quality of these habitats, as well as whether corrective measures need to be established in order to maintain a good environmental status. To characterize and compare the ponds, different parameters were measured, such as conductivity, pH, nutrient concentration, Chl-a concentration, phytoplankton composition, phytoplankton abundance (<20 µm), and the quantification of heterotrophic microorganisms indicating contamination of the aquifers. The obtained results showed that all ponds, except a mesotrophic pond, are eutrophic or even hypertrophic, with high levels of total nitrogen (>8 mg L−1), total phosphorous (>165 μg L−1), and chlorophyll-a concentration. These findings explain the high densities of phytoplankton observed, with the predominant presence of small cells (<3.6 μm ESD). In addition, concentrations of heterotrophs and coliforms are, in some ponds, higher than expected. Eutrophication hinders ecological functions and ecosystem services, which finally affects biodiversity and human wellbeing. Five of the six analyzed ponds are within various protection figures for their essential importance to local and migrating avifauna. Therefore, ponds’ status analysis and the implementation of measures for maintaining ecosystem services and trophic state are fundamental for the sustainable management of the studied area.
Analysis of Effects of Spatial Distributed Soil Properties and Soil Moisture Behavior on Hourly Streamflow Estimate through the Integration of SWAT and LSM
Authors: Lee Seoro , Lim Kyoung Jae , Kim Jonggun
Published: February 2024

This study addresses the challenge of accurately estimating hourly flow and soil moisture by integrating the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) with a Land Surface Model (LSM). Our approach enhances SWAT by incorporating spatially distributed soil properties and a physically-based soil moisture process, using the Noah LSM for hourly soil moisture estimation. This integration captures spatial variations in soil moisture and hydraulic properties from remote sensing across the watershed. The parameter sensitivity analysis and the calibration of hourly flow were significantly impacted by the physically-based hourly soil moisture routing and the incorporation of spatially distributed soil properties. Consequently, the modified SWAT model showed improved accuracy in hourly flow simulations for long-term and multiple rainfall events. Validation results showed significant improvements, with Coefficient of Determination (R2) and Nash and Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) increasing by 25.95% and 33.3%, respectively, and Percent Bias (PBIAS) decreasing by 85.8%. Notably, the average error for peak flows across eight events decreased by 49%. These findings highlight the importance of initializing soil parameters based on spatial soil moisture distribution and incorporating physical process-based moisture routing to enhance hourly flow simulation accuracy. Future research should focus on validating the physical feasibility of the soil parameter set in the study area with detailed hourly flow and soil moisture data and exploring its applicability in various regions. This study provides valuable insights for the scientific community, water resources, and agricultural decision-makers regarding integrated modeling of soil moisture and hourly flow, which can inform dam operation management, disaster planning, and crop yield improvement.

Published: February 2024

This paper presents an assessment of land stability using fallout environmental radioisotopes 7Be and 137Cs. The measurement of both isotopes was carried out in samples of soil collected from twenty-five sites covering the studied region. At each site, the samples were taken from five consecutive vertical depth levels to show the vertical displacement or compactness of the soil column. The collected samples were carefully transferred for radioactivity measurement at Alexandria University’s Institute of Graduate Studies and Research. A high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometer utilizing high-purity germanium was employed for the measurements. Surface distribution of the radionuclides levels was used to show the studied lands’ stability over the short- and long-term based on the used radionuclides’ nuclear half-life. For short-term (months) stability, 7Be (half-life: 35.5 days) levels showed that about 73% of the area is very low in stability, while the areas that recorded low, moderate, and high stability are at 18%, 4%, and 5%, respectively. For long-term (years) stability, 137Cs (half-life: 30 years) levels showed that about 80% of the areas are very low in stability, while the remaining areas, predicted as 12.8%, 5.6%, and 1.6%, are low, moderate, and high stability, respectively. It is clear that the eastern side of Alexandria is suffering from soil erosion and subsidence; on the other hand, the western side is more stable. Consequently, due to the origin of the soil, the nature of soil geological formations, and the environmental prevailing conditions, Alexandria is found to be more vulnerable to the consequences of sea-level rise and climate change. Therefore, adequate strategic management, including mitigation measures and adaptation, should be planned and implemented.
An Assortment–Quantity Optimization Problem in Printing Industry Using Simulation Modelling
Authors: Smagowicz Justyna , Szwed Cezary , Berlec Tomaž
Published: February 2024

This paper presents a method for assortment–quantity production scheduling in a printing company. The company uses specialized machinery to make prints on clothing. The method is based on a study of the company’s practical operations and the production technologies used. It involves the construction of simulation and optimization models of the process. The simulation models reflect the technical aspects of the production process and the business requirements. Optimization models provide solutions that balance product sales revenue with appropriate production schedules. On this basis, managers can make resource-balanced decisions on the implementation of selected production plans, taking into account the current economic conditions of the company. The experiments used the FlexSim simulation program (by FlexSim Software Products, Inc., Orem, UT 84097 USA; v. 20.1.3.1) and the OptQuest optimization package (embedded in FlexSim), resulting in a cost-effective solution in a short time. The proposed method, thanks to the optimization of the production program, provides savings in the use of materials for production, as well as water and energy savings in the production process. Thanks to the possibility of analyzing the process without interfering with it, provided by simulation modelling, the method practically eliminates the costs and time needed to prepare the execution of new production orders. This contributes to the sustainable development of the company and provides an opportunity to assess the impact of potential business decisions in the company prior to their implementation. The method has been directly applied in a company to improve its performance. The method is scalable and can be applied to problems of varying complexity and production systems of different types and sizes. This is especially true for small- and medium-sized companies that use discrete manufacturing in the textile, metal, and furniture industries.

Authors: Šiljeg Silvija , Milošević Rina , Mamut Marica
Published: February 2024

Pluvial flooding (PF), resulting from intense short-duration rainfall events, is challenging in urban areas amidst climate change and rapid urbanization. Identifying flood-prone zones and implementing collaborative mitigation strategies with the local population are crucial aspects of PF management. This study aims to enhance the understanding of urban PF in Croatia by collecting historical PF data, creating the GIS-MCDA susceptibility model, and conducting a risk perception survey for the study area of Gospić. Susceptibility zones were generated utilizing topographical, environmental, and hydrological criteria using the AHP method. To examine the risk perception, a face-to-face survey was conducted among 5% of the city’s population (N = 64). Five factors were defined: (F1) risk awareness, (F2) anthropogenic and (F3) natural causes of PF, (F4) potential consequences, and (F5) preparedness. The reliability of the questionnaire was very high (>0.71). Most respondents believe they are ill-equipped to defend against flooding independently and express a lack of confidence in the measures taken by local authorities. The highly susceptible zones encompass not only agricultural areas but also residential zones of city. Among all respondents, 36% live in a flood-prone area and half of them have no flood insurance or other mitigation measures. Incorporating locals’ suggestions and problems, mitigation measures were proposed. Results from this research can be a starting point for further research in Croatia and can provide guidelines for decision-makers in implementing a risk mitigation strategy.

Authors: Burinskienė Aurelija , Grybaitė Virginija , Lingaitienė Olga
Published: February 2024

The development of the sharing economy is accelerated using digital technologies. Such a topic is not widely discussed in the literature and requires knowledge to fill the existing gaps. The authors analyzed technology-driven variables which have the highest impact on expanding sharing activities. The research helps to examine the degree of integration of society into the process of sharing economy development. This paper aims to create a methodology that helps to evaluate the development of sharing platforms dependent on technological variables such as society’s access to digital services. Two activities are foreseen to achieve the goal. The first activity includes the steps necessary for revising technological variables (the compilation of an initial list of variables, the selection of variables, normalization, and the formation of correlation matrix). The second activity is designed to form a panel regression model using several sharing platform cases. Using the developed methodology, the revision of technological variables is carried out to expand the knowledge of economic science about the intensifying processes of the digitization of society, the resulting changes in consumption, and the redistribution of conventional economic solutions in the markets for goods and services. The authors compared the technological variables which had the highest impact on sharing platforms. The study results demonstrated that among ten sharing platforms, the highest dependence on technological variables is evident in the number of visitors visiting the Uber sharing platform.
Exploring Semi-Inclusive Two-Nucleon Emission in Neutrino Scattering: A Factorized Approximation Approach
Authors: Martinez-Consentino Victor L. , Amaro Jose E.
Published: February 2024

The semi-inclusive cross-section of two-nucleon emission induced by neutrinos and antineutrinos is computed by employing the relativistic mean field model of nuclear matter and the dynamics of meson-exchange currents. Within this model, we explore a factorization approximation based on the product of an integrated two-hole spectral function and a two-nucleon cross-section averaged over hole pairs. We demonstrate that the integrated spectral function of the uncorrelated Fermi gas can be analytically computed, and we derive a simple, fully relativistic formula for this function, showcasing its dependency solely on both missing momentum and missing energy. A prescription for the average momenta of the two holes in the factorized two-nucleon cross-section is provided, assuming that these momenta are perpendicular to the missing momentum in the center-of-mass system. The validity of the factorized approach is assessed by comparing it with the unfactorized calculation. Our investigation includes the study of the semi-inclusive cross-section integrated over the energy of one of the emitted nucleons and the cross-section integrated over the emission angles of the two nucleons and the outgoing muon kinematics. A comparison is made with the pure phase-space model and other models from the literature. The results of this analysis offer valuable insights into the influence of the semi-inclusive hadronic tensor on the cross-section, providing a deeper understanding of the underlying nuclear processes.
Program Behavior Dynamic Trust Measurement and Evaluation Based on Data Analysis
Authors: Wang Shuai , Hu Aiqun , Li Tao , Lin Shaofan
Published: February 2024

Industrial control terminals play an important role in industrial control scenarios. Due to the special nature of industrial control networks, industrial control terminal systems are vulnerable to malicious attacks, which can greatly threaten the stability and security of industrial production environments. Traditional security protection methods for industrial control terminals have coarse detection granularity, and are unable to effectively detect and prevent attacks, lacking real-time responsiveness to attack events. Therefore, this paper proposes a real-time dynamic credibility evaluation mechanism based on program behavior, which integrates the matching and symmetry ideas of credibility evaluation. By conducting a real-time dynamic credibility evaluation of function call sequences and system call sequences during program execution, the credibility of industrial control terminal application program behavior can be judged. To solve the problem that the system calls generated during program execution are unstable and difficult to measure, this paper proposes a partition-based dynamic credibility evaluation method, dividing program behavior during runtime into function call behavior and system call behavior within function intervals. For function call behavior, a sliding window-based function call sequence benchmark library construction method is proposed, which matches and evaluates real-time measurement results based on the benchmark library, thereby achieving symmetry between the benchmark library and the measured data. For system call behavior, a maximum entropy system call model is constructed, which is used to evaluate the credibility of system call sequences. Experiment results demonstrate that our method performs better in both detection success rate and detection speed compared to the existing methods.
No-Boundary Wave Functional and Own Mass of the Universe
Authors: Gorobey Natalia , Lukyanenko Alexander , Goltsev Alexander V.
Published: February 2024

An alternative formulation of the no-boundary initial state of the universe in the Euclidean quantum theory of gravity is proposed. Unlike the no-boundary Hartle–Hawking wave function, in which time appears together with macroscopic space–time in the semiclassical approximation, in the proposed formalism, time is present from the very beginning on an equal footing with spatial coordinates. The main element of the formalism is the wave functional, which is defined based on the world histories of the universe. This ensures formal 4D covariance of the theory. The wave functional is defined independently of the wave function as an eigenvector of the action operator. The shape of the Origin region, together with the boundary conditions, is determined by the structure of the total energy of the universe, which includes a 3D-invariant contribution of the expansion energy. The own mass of the universe arises as a non-zero value of the expansion energy in the Origin.

Published: February 2024

Nephropathis epidemica (NE), a mild form of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), is an acute zoonotic disease endemic in the Republic of Tatarstan. This study aimed to assess the impact of rosuvastatin on the clinical and laboratory results of NE. A total of 61 NE patients and 30 controls were included in this study; 22 NE patients and 7 controls received a daily dose of rosuvastatin (10 mg) for ten consecutive days. Serum samples were collected on days 1, 5, and 10 after admission to the hospital. These samples were analyzed to determine the levels of lipids, cytokines, and kidney toxicity markers. Our findings indicate that rosuvastatin reduced the duration of the second wave of fever and alleviated back pain and headache symptoms. Additionally, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) serum levels were significantly decreased on days 5 and 10 upon rosuvastatin treatment. Furthermore, rosuvastatin decreased the levels of cytokines in the serum, particularly proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-8. NE patients had significantly altered levels of the kidney toxicity markers albumin and osteopontin. The data from our study provide evidence supporting the therapeutic potential of rosuvastatin in NE cases.

The characteristics of the whole PEDV genome that has circulated in Mexico from the first outbreak to the present are unknown. We chose samples obtained from 2013 to 2017 and sequenced them, which enabled us to identify the genetic variation and phylogeny in the virus during the first four years that it circulated in Mexico. A 99% identity was found among the analyzed pandemic strains; however, the 1% difference affected the structure of the S glycoprotein, which is essential for the binding of the virus to the cellular receptor. The S protein induces the most efficacious antibodies; hence, these changes in structure could be implicated in the clinical antecedents of the outbreaks. Antigenic changes could also help PEDV avoid neutralization, even in the presence of previous immunity. The characterization of the complete genome enabled the identification of three circulating strains that have a deletion in ORF1a, which is present in attenuated Asian vaccine strains. The phylogenetic analysis of the complete genome indicates that the first PEDV outbreaks in Mexico were caused by INDEL strains and pandemic strains related to USA strains; however, the possibility of the entry of European strains exists, which may have caused the 2015 and 2016 outbreaks.
Application of CRISPR/Cas9 for Rapid Genome Editing of Pseudorabies Virus and Bovine Herpesvirus-1
Authors: Yu Wanqi , Liu Jingyi , Liu Yingnan , Forlenza Maria , Chen Hongjun
Published: February 2024

The CRISPR/Cas9 system is widely used to manipulate viral genomes. Although Alphaherpesvirinae genomes are large and complicated to edit, in recent years several Pseudorabies virus (PRV) mutants have been successfully generated using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. However, the application of CRISPR/Cas9 editing on another member of alpha herpesviruses, bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1), is rarely reported. This paper reports a rapid and straightforward approach to manipulating herpesviruses genome using CRISPR/Cas9. The recombinant plasmids contained the left and right arm of the thymidine kinase (TK) gene of PRV or of the glycoprotein I (gI) and glycoprotein E (gE) of BHV-1. Upon the cleavage of the TK or gIgE gene by Cas9 protein, this was replaced by the enhanced green fluorescence protein (eGFP) by homologous recombination. With this approach, we generated recombinant TK-/eGFP+ PRV and gIgE-/eGFP+ BHV-1 mutants and then proceeded to characterize their biological activities in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, we showed that alpha herpesvirus, including PRV and BHV-1, can be rapidly edited using the CRISPR/Cas9 approach paving the way to the development of animal herpesvirus vaccines.

Waqf is one of the teachings of Islam that has socio-economic value for the welfare of society. Along with the times, waqf is not only in the form of goods, but can also be in the form of money and productive waqf. In fact, this understanding of the development of waqf is not widely known by the public, including in the Yogyakarta area. Waqf has a big role in providing the benefits of waqf property in Indonesia. Good institutional administration and strategies in the utilization of waqf funds are very important aspects to pay attention to, in order to achieve the goals of the waqf itself. Each waqf institution has its own strategy to realize its vision and mission, as well as BWA Yogyakarta which has an innovative strategy in order to realize its programs. What is the strategy for utilizing waqf funds at BWA Yogyakarta? What is the strategy for utilizing waqf funds at BWA Yogyakarta in a normative and juridical review?
The type of research carried out by the authors is field research, the nature of this research is prescriptive research, the approach used by the authors is a normative empirical approach with mas}lah}ah mursalah theory, the data source consists of primary data and secondary data, data collection techniques in the research consists of methods of observation, interviews, and documentation, and the frame of mind that the compiler uses in data analysis is the inductive method.
The result of this research is that BWA Yogyakarta has three strategies, namely Expansion Strategy (Traffic), Prospect Funding Strategy, and Customer and Partner Strategy. The application of the three strategies of BWA Yogyakarta normatively is in accordance with the concept of mas}lah}ah mursalah, and juridically, the three strategies follow most of the regulations stipulated by law, namely Article 4, Article 5, Article 11, Article 21, Article 22, Article 28, Article 42, Article 43 of Law Number 41 of 2004 concerning Waqf, Government Regulation Number 42 of 2006 concerning Implementation of Law Number 41 of 2004, Article 22 paragraph 1 and the Fatwa Commission of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) on 11 May 2002. However, the three strategies did not fully implement Article 21 of Law Number 41 of 2004 concerning waqf and Government Regulation Number 42 of 2006 article 26.

CRITICAL REVIEW OF AL-GHAZALI'S SUFFICIENT THINKING AND ITS EXISTENCE IN INDONESIA
Authors: Hadi Abdul
Published: February 2024

In the digital information era such as today, where everyone can express their ideas, it is like a double-edged sword with a contradictory angle between positive and negative. Among the negative ones is the rampant doctrine of "truth and safety claims" that always appear amid society due to fanaticism for specific thoughts and sure scientists. This research seeks to reveal Ghazali's thoughts on alternatives in building Islamic epistemology with an "intuitive" method. Ghazali cannot fully accept the courage that is obtained through the way of "empiricism" and "rationalism" because he considers both of them deceptive. To reach the truth, he offers an integrative approach that unites reason and revelation on the one hand and between Sufism and Shari'a on the other. Ihya Ulum al-Din, the most significant work, Ghazali, is a concrete manifestation of this integrative thought, especially between fiqh and tasawuf (shari'a and essence). This work received a large audience and was widely accepted in the Islamic world, especially in Indonesia.
Di era digital informasi sekarang ini dimana semua orang dapat mengepresikan gagasanya laksana pisau bermata dua dengan engle yang kontradiktif antara positiv dan negatif. Diantara sekian yang negatif adalah maraknya doktrin “klaim kebenaran dan keselamatan” selalu muncul ditengah-tengah masyarakat, karena kefantikan pada pemikiran tertentu dan ilmuwan tertentu pula. Penelitian ini berupaya untuk mengungkap pemikiran Ghazali dalam membangun epistemologi Islam dengan metode “intuisi” . Ghazali tidak dapat menerima sepenuhnya keberan yang diperoleh melalui pancaindera “empirisme”, juga akal “rasionalisme”, karena keduanya dianggapnya suka menipu. Dalam upaya meraih kebenaran, beliau menawarkan alternative pendekatan “integrative” yang menyatukan antara akal dan wahyu di satu pihak, dan antara tasawuf  dan syariat di lain pihak.  Karya tebesar Ghazali, Ihya Ulum al-Din, merupakan wujud nyata dari pemikiran integrative itu, khususnya antara fiqih dan tasawuf (syariat dan hakkekat). Karya ini mendapat aundiensi besar dan diterima secara luas di dunia Islam khususnya di Indonesia.

Published: February 2024

The implementation of the zawaid takbir is one part of the implementation of the Eid prayer which is still being discussed in the community, especially because some people carry it out in an extraordinary manner by carrying out it only once in the first and second rak'ahs. This research focuses on examining critically in terms of the hadith view of K.H. Lanre Said as one of the most influential figures in South Sulawesi. This type of research is qualitative with the Critical studies approach method, specifically with the hadith criticism method to look further at the hadith views of K.H. Lanre Said. The results of this study indicate that of the two general conclusions from the hadith point of view described by K.H. Lanre Said in his phenomenal work, namely Adz Zikrah, found that these two conclusions were not in accordance with the conclusions of hadith scholars. What he concluded that the hadiths of takbir zawāid are all weak are not the case with the many arguments of the scholars who state that the hadiths of takbir zawāid are strong and argumentative hadiths to be used in the Eid prayers.
Penerapan Takbir Zawaid menjadi salah satu bagian dari pelaksanaan salat Id yang masih menjadi diskusi di tengah masyarakat khususnya karena ada yang melaksanakannya di luar lazimnya pelaksanaan jumlah takbir zawāid tersebut dengan melaksanakannya hanya sekali takbir di rakaat pertama dan kedua. Penelitian ini fokus mengkaji secara kritis dari segi hadis pendangan K.H. Lanre Said sebagai salah satu tokoh yang cukup berpengaruh di Sulawesi Selatan. Jenis penlitian ini adalah kualitatif dengan metode pendekatan Critical studies secara khusus dengan metode kritik hadis untuk melihat lebih jauh pandangan-pandangan hadis K.H. Lanre Said. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa dari dua kesimpulan umum dari sudut pandang hadis yang dijelaskan oleh K.H. Lanre Said dalam karya fenomenalnya yaitu Adz Zikrah ditemukan bahwa kedua kesimpulan tersebut belum sesuai dengan kesimpulan-kesimpulan ulama hadis. Apa yang disimpulkan olehnya bahwa hadis takbir zawāid seluruhnya lemah tidaklah demikian dengan adanya banyak argumentasi para ulama yang menyatakan bahwa hadis takbir zawāid adalah hadis yang kuat yang argumentative untuk digunakan dalam ibadah salat Id.
