Field experiments were carried out in sandy clay loam and clay loam soils from 2007 to 2009 to study the persistence and degradation of common herbicides applied to rice (butachlor, pretilachlor), maize (atrazine, alachlor) and soybean (pendimethalin, metolachlor) crops at two levels of application. Soil samples at depth of 0-15 cm were collected at periodical intervals from 0 day to harvest for residue analysis. Herbicides residue after their extraction was determined using GC-ECD, except atrazine which was determined using GC-FID. Results showed that the initial deposits of herbicides in soil vary with the concentration applied and a gradual continuous dissipation of all herbicides in soil was observed as a function of time irrespective of the crops grown. Dissipation of all the herbicides in soil followed first order kinetics. The correlation coefficient (r 2 ) lies between 0.714 and 0.957 and the best fit was observed for acetanilide group of herbicides. Half life of the herbicides increased with the increased concentration with mean half life of 5.88, 12.44, 31.45, 4.78, 14.63 and 22.42 days for butachlor, pretilachlor, atrazine, alachlor, pendimethalin and metolachlor respectively. Within the period of crop harvest more than 98 per cent of herbicides dissipated from the soil, except metolachlor and atrazine.

Field experiments were conducted at Agricultural College and Research Institute, Madurai during kharif 2008-2009 and summer 2009-2010 to study the effect of drip fertigation on growth, yield and quality of maize. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with four replications. The treatments tried were two irrigation methods (drip irrigation and surface irrigation), three fertilizer levels viz., 75, 100 and 125 percent and three fertilizer combinations viz., fully water soluble fertilizers with 100 percent P as basal, 50 percent commercial fertilizers and 50 percent water soluble fertilizers with 50 percent P and K as basal, and fully water soluble fertilizers. Drip irrigation was scheduled at 100 % PE once in three days and fertigation was given once in six days as per the treatment schedule. Surface irrigation was scheduled at 0.8 IW/CPE ratio with 5 cm depth of irrigation with recommended dose of fertilizers. Drip fertigated maize exhibited better plant height and dry matter production in drip fertigation with 125 per cent RDF as water soluble fertilizer. The yield attributes viz., cob length, cob girth and cob weight was higher in drip fertigation of 125 per cent RDF as water soluble fertilizer. As a consequence of better growth, drip fertigation of 125 per cent RDF as water soluble fertilizer recorded higher yield of hybrid maize. In addition to better crop growth, higher yield attributes and substantial quantity of water saving (23 per cent) indicated the feasibility of drip fertigation for higher productivity and sustainable yield from maize.

Investigation was carried out to develop natural food colour powder from grape fruit rind (waste) by spray drying. The colour was extracted with water and solvents viz., acetone, ethanol and citric acid. The experimental results showed that the 3 % citric acid extraction was best and the filtrate was spray dried at different drying air temperature (180, 200 and 220ºC) and flow rate (25 and 30 ml / min) using 10, 15 and 20 % of maltodextrin (MD). The yield recovery was maximum at 200ºC with a flow rate of 25 ml / min at 20 % maltodextrin. The stability of the colour was analysed by exposing the colour powder in various concentrations of pH, preservative and temperatures followed by packed in aluminium pouch (P 1 ), brown pet bottle (P 2 ) and brown glass bottle (P 3 ). The packed samples were stored in room (R 1 ) and refrigeration (R2 ) temperatures for 3 months and analyzed their colour intensity (L* a* b*) and moisture content. The results revealed that the addition of preservative, increasing temperature, pH and storage periods had affected the stability of colour and moisture content. The samples packed in P 3 had better colour retention than P2 and P 1 during storage . Colour intensity of developed lollipop and icing with grape skin colour powder had best colour strength and sensory attributes than synthetic food colour (carmoesin).

A Study on the Heritage Value Conservation of the World Heritage Suwon Hwaseong through Value-based Approach
Authors:   The Association Of Korean Cultural And Historical Geographers, Oh Seon Hwa
Published: May 2023

Suwon Hwaseong Fortress was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1997 for its value as an 18th-century military fortification reflecting advanced military technology from the East and the West. However, Suwon citizens recognize Suwon Hwaseong Fortress as a fortress and a new city created by King Jeongjo. World Heritage OUV does not match the local value recognized by the region. The current World Heritage Program emphasizes multifaceted interpretations of values, as emphasizing only one Outstanding Universal Value would establish a false hierarchy in terms of conservation. Reflecting the changes in the World Heritage discourse, this study tried to review the heritage values, including the OUV and local values of Suwon Hwaseong Fortress, and find ways to protect both OUV and local values together in the protection and management system. To this end, a survey was conducted among stakeholders, and the value of heritage was categorized based on the results of the survey. To conserve the heritage value derived after the survey, this study suggests the use of the World Heritage OUV statement, the ‘statement of significance’ of the value-based approach, and ‘individual statements describing the importance of each component expressing value.
The Beginning and Development of the Adaptation of the Five Dragons Shrine in Gunsando Island
Authors:   The Association Of Korean Cultural And Historical Geographers, Jung Woo-Jin , Lee Haeng-Cheol
Published: May 2023

From ancient times the deity in charge of rain was the dragon god. The dragon was established according to the influence of the five emperor gods [五帝] and five spirits [五靈] of the Five Elements [五行] theory during the Warring States period, and was worshiped as the Five Dragon God. During the Tang Dynasty, private dragon ancestral rites were officially recognized and incorporated into official proper ritual [正祀], while the king’s titles were conferred thereby. The state tried to unite the local people and control the order of rural villages by incorporating the model of dragon faith into the village beliefs. This is the reason as to why the various forms of dragon faith prevalent across various places have been adjusted to a unified deity called ‘Five Dragon God.’ The five dragon ancestral rites of the Song Dynasty were strengthened and elevated from little sacrifice [小祀] to middle ceremonies [中祀], and the Five Dragon God was widely worshiped as a god of the sea who protects the safety of navigation. However, in the Southern Song Dynasty, the ‘Majo’ Goddess came to hold the status of a sea god surpassing that of dragon god, which is identified as a factor that influenced the composition of the shrine of the Five Dragons Shrine in Gunsando Island of the Goryeo Dynasty. Now, at the upper building of the Five Dragons Shrine in Seonyu Island, there is a story of an old woman named Lim who was destined to become a queen yet who married into an ordinary family and died at the Five Dragons Shrine. This goddess is believed to have been a sea god introduced to Gunsando Island after the end of the Northern Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty when the worship of the dragon in China slowed down and Mazu began to take over its role. Since the 13th century, Gunsando Island has been neglected as an empty island after suffering from the invasions by the Mongols, plundering by the Japanese pirates, and the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592. It was only during or after the late Joseon Dynasty that people migrated to the Gogunsan area, and the existing Five Dragons Shrine operated again. In this process, the Five Dragon God, worshiped by the Chinese people and repeatedly cultivated at the national level, was adapted, and the Mazu Goddess was also determined to have been transformed [changed] into the old woman Lim, who was destined to become the queen, simply by fragmentary memories of ‘林氏’ and ‘妃’.
Re-creating Homeland and Ethnicity in the Pacific through Religion: The Case of Polynesian Conversion to Mormonism
Authors:   The Association Of Korean Cultural And Historical Geographers, Yorgason Ethan
Published: May 2023

This article analyzes a case in which homeland and ethnicity were simultaneously re-conceived due to the influence of religion— the case of Polynesian Mormons. Through religious conversion, these Mormons (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) were assigned and came to accept new claims about their ethnic origin and homeland. In particular, through the Book of Mormon scriptural story they came to believe their ancestors had “House of Israel” heritage via an American-continent homeland. The paper reviews both religious place-making and homeland concepts within cultural geography, arguing that the mutual constitution of ethnicity and homeland deserves more attention. It contextualizes this case of homeland/ethnicity creation in relation to examples from the Pacific Islands and around the world. It then uses historical and discourse analysis to show how the new homeland narrative was created for (and partly along with) Polynesian Mormons, as well as how the central church sought to sustain the narrative for more than 100 years. It concludes by assessing the implications of this case and pointing to resonances with the place-centric nature of many of Korea’s new religions.

Published: May 2023

The objective of the research was to know the monthly production and final disposal of used tires in commercial establishments in Cartagena, in order to use them as input elements to build environmental public policies that promote their proper management and final disposal and, with it, the mitigation of environmental pollution and extreme poverty at the district level. For this, through a descriptive cross-sectional study, 32 formal companies were surveyed between 2019 and 2020, investigating aspects related to the production, handling, and final disposal of used tires, and obtaining as a main result that the surveyed companies presented an average monthly generation of 13,876 tires. Regarding management and disposal, only 40% of the sample elements had a waste management system, which mostly showed shortcomings in the storage processes, promoting the disposal of tires outdoors (in parks and streets), serving as a reservoir for pests and mosquitoes, or increasing the carbon footprint due to open burning. The analysis of the results and the reflection on the socioeconomic and environmental panorama of Cartagena allowed us to conclude that it is necessary to promote the use of tires under their incorporation into a productive system, which uses recycling as a missionary process, for a balanced solution between the environmental (reduction of satellite dumps) and the control of poverty through formal employment, thus being able to generate social innovation from government management articulating with civil management in Cartagena

Authors: Nurul Huda Mohammad
Published: May 2023

The development of smartphones has an essential role in digital services, which have the advantage of access to health services that can be performed anywhere and anytime. Unfortunately, the diffusion process of smartphone technology in the provision of health services faces the problem of decreasing the actual use of mobile health applications. Previous studies on m-government health services have also focused on using TAM and UTAUT to predict individual user behavior. A gap in the literature has been identified in previous studies. This study investigates the critical factors for the individual acceptance of m-government health services, especially the Peduli Lindungi mobile health service. The two theoretical models, TAM and ECM, were integrated to enhance the body of knowledge in predicting individual behavior in the m-government healthcare context. A quantitative method was used to analyse a total of 200 data. PLS-SEM was used to analyze the outer and inner models. The findings of this study support all hypotheses. The study's findings show that Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Easy to Use, and Satisfaction significantly affect on Intention Use; Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Easy to Use, and Expectation Confirmatory significantly affect on Satisfaction, Perceived Easy to Use has a significant effect on Perceived Usefulness. Expectation confirmation significantly affected Perceived Usefulness and perceived ease of use. The proposed model is successfully validated. Future research could consider integrating these theoretical models to assess the critical factors influencing the acceptance and use of digital services in other contexts.

Published: May 2023

The state must declare a state of emergency under certain conditions that endanger the safety of the state and society. Limiting the power to the declaration of a state of emergency is essential because this great authority cannot be used according to the President's will, so it is necessary to have restrictive mechanisms so that the President does not misuse the authority to carry out the emergency. However, the Indonesian constitution does not stipulate any restrictions on the powers of the President in declaring a state of emergency. This study aims to determine the dangers of not limiting the President's powers in declaring a state of emergency in the Indonesian constitution by using the arrangements and practices of emergency law in France and India. The approach used in this study is a comparative level that compares the contents of the constitution's text and compares the implementation and history of the constitution. The result of this study is limiting the power of the President in declaring a state of emergency is necessary based on a comparison of arrangements and experiences in France and India. Therefore, Indonesia must restrict the President's power in declaring a state of emergency to its constitution.

Published: May 2023

Blood glucose level is one of the most commonly used parameters in assessing the energy metabolism in dairy cows. The presented study
aimed to compare the glucose concentrations in blood samples taken from the coccygeal vein, jugular vein, and mammary vein from the same
animals at the same time. Healthy Holstein-Friesian dairy cows (n=25) in their second and third lactation were selected for the study. The
blood samples were taken from the coccygeal vein, jugular vein, and V. subcutanea abdominis (mammary vein) at the same time from each
animal. To analyze blood glucose, Free Style Optium Blood Glucose Test Strip (Abbott, Istanbul, TURKIYE) was used. In comparison to the
blood taken from both the jugular vein and coccygeal vein, glucose levels in blood samples taken from the mammary vein were significantly
low (P<0.001). As a result, the determination of glucose levels in blood samples taken from the mammary veins may cause erroneous interpretations.
Therefore, the mammary vein for blood glucose must not be used as a sampling site.

Published: May 2023

School burnout is a common problem in students. Therefore, it is a situation that negatively affects students. This study aimed to investigate the mediating role of psychological resilience (PR) in the relationship between quality of school life (QSL) and school burnout (SB). The data of the study were collected by using the “QSL Scale”, “SB Scale” and “PR Scale”. The study group of the current study is comprised of a total of 325 middle school students aged 10 to 15. Of these 325 students, 163 (50.2%) are females, and 162 (49.8%) are males. In the analysis of the collected data, correlation analysis, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modelling (SEM) analysis were used. As a result of the SEM analysis, it was found that QSL has a positive effect on PR and a negative effect on SB. PR was found to have a negative effect on SB. Moreover, PR was found to have a partially mediator role in the relationship between QSL and SB. Overall, it can be argued that improving students’ perception of QSL will have positive effects on their PR and on their attempts to cope with SB.

The scientific novelty of the research lies in carrying out a comparative study of the first ever English translation of the play and one of its recent translations, which has not been done before. The comparative study makes it possible not only to trace the main translation trends of the last century, but also to consider the direction of lexical changes in the English language. In the course of the study, the author identified the subject-naming units in the original text of A. P. Chekhov’s play “The Seagull”, examined the variants of their translation into English, conducted a comparative analysis of the naming units. The research findings showed the following patterns: when translating proper names into English, transliteration and transcription are used; the most significant differences are observed when translating a character’s name and patronymic, age, marital and social status and occupation. This phenomenon can be considered as a consequence of linguocultural differences associated with the artistic interpretation of the play by the translator.

Authors: Chukshis Vadim Andreevich
Published: May 2023

The aim of the research is to identify the ethnocultural distinctness of Swiss phraseological units as means of the national identification of the German-speaking Swiss in the modern discursive space. The scientific novelty of the paper lies in studying Swiss-specific phraseological units as means of Swiss ethnoculture representation using the material of modern discursive practices of Swiss linguistic personalities. As a result of the research, the following types of Swiss-specific phraseological units have been identified: 1) non-equivalent phraseological units that reflect national Swiss realia (toponyms, anthroponyms, names of Swiss monetary units); 2) phraseological units the core of which is formed by lexico-semantic Helvetisms and dialectisms; 3) comparative phraseological units, which, depending on their structure, are divided into the following groups: a) word combinations with comparative conjunctions; b) proverbs; c) subordinate clauses of comparison. The research has determined the linguopragmatic potential of Swiss interjectional phraseological units in Swiss discourse; characterised Swiss national proverbs, which are an integral component of the Swiss phraseological stock reflecting cultural codes, the peculiarities of the national character and worldview of the German-speaking Swiss.
Genre and composition features of the texts of German-language online travel guides
Authors: Bespalova Svetlana Vasilevna , Kuznetsova Lydmila Nikolaevna
Published: May 2023

The study aims to identify the corpus of specific linguostylistic means and the genre-compositional originality of the texts of German-language online travel guides. These texts are reference publications aimed at a wide range of readers and they are used primarily by tourists for a more detailed acquaintance with a travel destination. The texts of online travel guides, along with the texts of excursions, audio guides, leaflets, catalogs, brochures, virtual excursions, travel agency websites, belong to the genres of tourism discourse and are characterised by a distinct structural organisation, a variety of speech tactics, verbal and non-verbal codes and perform the informational, advertising, accumulative and regulatory functions. A travel guide is a “calling card” of a cultural and linguistic community, which allows forming certain holistic stereotypical images in the minds of recipients regarding a foreign-language worldview. The paper is novel in that it makes the first attempt to carry out a comprehensive analysis of different-level linguistic means representing the genre-compositional features of modern online travel guides. As a result of the study, it has been proved that the texts of German-language online travel guides have a distinct compositional structure, are characterised by a set of specific linguistic means that implement the general communicative task of tourism discourse, i.e. making an impact on the recipient.
Terminological systems of the sublanguage of medicine: A structural-typological aspect
Authors: Kazarina Svetlana Georgievna , Gulyaeva Tatyana Urevna
Published: May 2023

The aim of the research is to determine to which specific type each of the twelve terminological systems of the sublanguage of medicine belongs based on the evolutive characteristics of their formation and development. The paper notes that the modern approach to the study of terminology should be based on an objective analysis and operate not only with minimal units, but also with larger units that are rarely studied, i.e. terminological systems. The scientific novelty of the research lies in describing and comparing macrosystem objects of the sublanguage of medicine within the framework of typological terminology studies and in obtaining theoretical generalisations based on the material of the paper, which can be taken into account in works on the typology of terminological systems of other professionally significant areas. As a result of studying the evolutive characteristics, the typological features of old and young sets of naming units have been identified and the distribution of macro-objects into four types has been obtained. The semantic and structural characteristics of naming units corresponding to the types of terminological systems have been described. The extralinguistic factors influencing the processes of updating special units and changing the volumes of the terminological systems belonging to the sublanguage of medicine have been revealed.
“Eternal images” in I. S. Turgenev’s writings: On the material of the story “A Lear of the Steppes”
Authors: Hao Jingjing
Published: May 2023

The main aim of the paper is to identify the peculiarities of I. S. Turgenev’s interpretation of the Shakespearean “eternal image” of King Lear using the material belonging to a different nation (the Russian material). The study is novel in that it is the first to examine the relationship between the noble and universal qualities of the hero through the myth of omnipotence, which is destined for deconstruction. In addition, attempts are made to link this relationship with the writer’s reflections on the formation of a new type of man in the post-reform transition period. The paper examines various approaches to the notion of eternal images, analyses the aspects that drew I. S. Turgenev’s attention to “eternal images”, reveals the correlation of culture-specific and universal, common human traits in the main character. As a result of the study, it has been found that drawing on the literary experience of W. Shakespeare, Turgenev created his own drama, the drama of “Russian King Lear”. The writer reveals both dark and light features in this national type, paying special attention to the personal psychology of his hero, the depiction of which is connected, on the one hand, with the reflection on the problems of Russian life and, on the other hand, with the situation in which Harlov finds himself, similar to that of King Lear.
The role of allusive microplots in the structure in characters' images of F. M. Dostoevsky's early works
Authors: Knyazeva Lyudmila Andreevna
Published: May 2023

The aim of the study is to identify the role of allusive micro-plots in the structure of protagonists’ images in F. M. Dostoevsky’s works written before his exile to a katorga prison camp. The study is original in that it is the first to touch on the topic of the importance of micro-plots for creating protagonists’ images in Dostoevsky’s early writings. In this case, the plots serve for Dostoevsky as an allusion to the literary context of the epoch when creating protagonists’ images. The analysis of the micro-plots makes it possible to understand why the protagonists need a “plot” so much, their life is often meaningless, it lacks the sharpness that is contained in the stories they invent. In addition, we analyse the novella “The Landlady”, which rarely becomes the object of research, but is of particular importance for understanding Dostoevsky’s early writings and the structure of dreamers’ images. The results showed that the micro-plots reflect the inability of the characters-dreamers to join the real world, the inner content of the protagonists’ souls manifested in these plots becomes more important than reality and replaces it. It is significant that most of the micro-plots are of romantic origin, which sets the second dimension of the protagonists’ life in St. Petersburg. In many ways, it is due to the micro-plots that the image of the St. Petersburg dreamer is created.
The typical argument ‘Jörg Haider is a right-wing populist’ in the system of discursive construction of the identity of Austrians by the German mass media (on the material of the publications of the newspaper ‘Der Tagesspiegel’ in February 2000)
Authors: Spasskaya Anna Sergeevna
Published: May 2023

The aim of the research is to identify the specifics of the discursive construction of the identity of Austrians through the typical argument ‘Jörg Haider is a right-wing populist’ in the German periodical ‘Der Tagesspiegel’ in February 2000. The paper analyses the structure and modifications of this typical argument, its connection with the discursive position of the main actors, the ways of its linguistic implementation. The paper is novel in that it is the first to use the argumentation analysis of the microstructure of media discourse on the basis of studies of critical and linguistic discourse analysis of Russian, Austrian and German Germanistics. As a result of the research, it has been found that identity construction occurs through, firstly, the repetition of meanings generated in discourse and by discourse, which can be generalised using typical arguments. Secondly, the described typical argument linguistically constructs the common political present, future and past of Germany and Austria, a representative of the nation. The typical argument is implemented by the lexico-syntactic and rhetorical means that mark the discursive position of the actors: the formation of public opinion, political enlightenment and ambivalent attitude to Nazism.
Formation of political euphemisms: Stages, methods, dynamics
Authors: Wu Yucongzi
Published: May 2023

The paper is devoted to the study of political euphemisms. The aim of the research is to identify and substantiate the dynamic characteristics of political euphemisms used in Russian-language newspaper texts. The use of political euphemisms depends on the political reality and on the intention of communication: what appears to be a relevant political euphemism in this historical era, may be regarded as an obsolete euphemism in another era that requires a new euphemistic replacement. As the denotations of euphemisation change, a variety of linguistic means emerge. The paper describes the productive ways of formation of political euphemisms used in mass media texts of different historical periods (namely, under President Boris Yeltsin and President Vladimir Putin). The research is novel in that it is the first to present the tendencies of changes in the composition of political euphemisms from a diachronic perspective. As a result, it has been shown that as the language develops, semantic calquing occurs, the change of connotation strongly influences the ways of formation of new groups of euphemistic substitutes. Active processes at the lexical level of the language system contribute to the fact that some of the lexemes acquire the status of euphemisms. The main strategies for forming political euphemisms are prefixation, borrowing and metaphorisation.
