Review of recent analytical advances in the spectroscopy of hydrogenic lines in plasmas
Authors: Oks Eugene , Dalimier Elisabeth , Angelo Paulo , Pikuz Tatiana
Published: April 2024

Broadening of hydrogenic spectral lines is an important tool in spectroscopic diagnostics of various laboratory and astrophysical plasmas. We review recent analytical advances in three areas. First, we review the analytical solution for the splitting of hydrogenic lines under the combination of a circularly polarized electromagnetic wave with a strong magnetic field. Practical applications of this solution relate to the spectroscopic diagnostic of the electron cyclotron waves and to the relativistic laser–plasma interactions. Second, we review analytical results concerning the Stark–Zeeman broadening of the Lyman-alpha (Ly-alpha) line in plasmas. These results allow for the Stark width of the Ly-alpha π-component to be used for the experimental determination of the ion density or of the root-mean-square field of a low-frequency electrostatic plasma turbulence in the situation where the Zeeman effect dominates over the Stark effects. Third, we review recent analytical advances in the area of the intra-Stark spectroscopy: three different new methods, based on the emergent phenomenon of the Langmuir-wave-caused structures (“L-dips”) in the line profiles, for measuring super-strong magnetic fields of the GigaGauss range developing during relativistic laser–plasma interactions. We also review the rich physics behind the L-dips phenomenon – because there was a confusion in the literature in this regard.
Nutritional deficiency and ecological stress in the Middle to Final western Jōmon
Authors: Vlok Melandri , McFadden Clare , Matsumura Hirofumi , Buckley Hallie R.
Published: April 2024

Despite significant research, the direct and indirect causes of a population decline in the eponymous foragers of the Late Jōmon period (c. 4500–2300 BP) in Japan remains undetermined. Here, the authors examine the impact of nutritional stress, using scurvy as a case study, on Middle and a Late/Final Jōmon populations. While an increase in the prevalence of scurvy between the time periods is apparent, no associated change in age at death was observed. The authors argue that the Late Jōmon adapted their food-sharing practices in times of ecological stress, and they highlight the need to consider morbidity and mortality together in palaeopathological assessments and the growing evidence for a non-nutritional cause in the Late Jōmon population decline.
Olfactory Categorization Is Shaped by a Transmodal Cortical Network for Evaluating Perceptual Predictions

Published: April 2024

Creating and evaluating predictions are considered important features in sensory perception. Little is known about processing differences between the senses and their cortical substrates. Here, we tested the hypothesis that olfaction, the sense of smell, would be highly dependent on (nonolfactory) object-predictive cues and involve distinct cortical processing features. We developed a novel paradigm to compare prediction error processing across senses. Participants listened to spoken word cues (e.g., “lilac”) and determined whether target stimuli (odors or pictures) matched the word cue or not. In two behavioral experiments (totaln = 113; 72 female), the disparity between congruent and incongruent response times was exaggerated for olfactory relative to visual targets, indicating a greater dependency on predictive verbal cues to process olfactory targets. A preregistered fMRI study (n = 30; 19 female) revealed the anterior cingulate cortex (a region central for error detection) being more activated by incongruent olfactory targets, indicating a role for olfactory predictive error processing. Additionally, both the primary olfactory and visual cortices were significantly activated for incongruent olfactory targets, suggesting olfactory prediction errors are dependent on cross-sensory processing resources, whereas visual prediction errors are not. We propose that olfaction is characterized by a strong dependency on predictive (nonolfactory) cues and that odors are evaluated in the context of such predictions by a designated transmodal cortical network. Our results indicate differences in how predictive cues are used by different senses in rapid decision-making.
Fostering environmental and resources management in Sudan through geo-information systems: A prospective approach for sustainability
Authors: Osman Mohamed B.O. , Yassin Emad E.H.
Published: April 2024

Environmental and land resource degradation is a serious problem that poses significant challenges in Sudan and worldwide generally. Despite the fact that the physical environment components are the underlying economic resources and production assets in developing countries like Sudan, and they directly affect the nation’s socioeconomic aspects of income, health, water availability, food security, and many others. The interventions and protective measures were insufficient to meet the magnitude and extent of the ongoing degradation and resource wastage. Based on the analysis of the indicators and trends of the environmental and natural resources management ‘status quo’, this paper is an attempt to overview and investigate the state of environmental and natural resources management and governance in Sudan. Further discussion delves into the utilization of geo-information systems in Sudan’s environmental and resource management by analyzing and reviewing “some previous case studies” where GIS approaches and techniques were deployed. The paper further strives to explore and highlight the opportunities and potential contributions of GIS in the context of Sudan’s environmental and resource management. Lessons learned from the previous experiences were considered, and the recommendations for the future use of a tailored geo-information system in Sudan context were highlighted and suggested to support better practices and sustainability insights for environmental governance and resources management.

Published: April 2024

The tin mining process removes soil layers so that the soil becomes dry and nutrient-poor. Reclamation of tin mining in Selingsing, Gantung Sub-district, Belitung Timur Regency, Bangka Belitung Islands Province has been carried out through revegetation using beach Casuarina plants, but plant growth is slow. On of the efforts that can be made to improve plant growth to restore land and forest conditions is using the biopore technique combined with organic litter and bioactivator solution. This study was therefore aimed to elucidate the effect of the biopore technique on soil quality and the growth of beach Casuarina on the reclaimed former tin mine land. Treatments tested were the use of bamboo biopores and without the use of bamboo biopores, with five replications in each treatment. The effect of variation was measured based on nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and lead contents in the root zone and plant growth (plant height and diameter). The results showed that compared to those without biopore treatment, the biopore treatment significantly increased nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium contents by 0.67%, 2.12%, and 19%, respectively. The organic component of biopore treatment influenced the formation of metal bonds, as indicated by a decrease in lead content by 0.35%. The best plant height of 42 cm was observed in the treatment without biopore, and the best plant diameter of 2.9 cm was in the biopore treatment.

Published: April 2024

Legal psychology is field of research which seeks to bring evidence-based practice to the vital work of the criminal justice system. This research is increasingly being conducted and its findings applied around the world. However, worldwide legal systems and their processes can vary greatly. In the current paper, we summarise discussions between legal psychology academics and criminal justice practitioners from Japan. Together, we examine how practices in the Japanese criminal justice system interact with the international evidence base for psychologically-informed ‘best practice’ approaches. Our discussion targets areas of popular study in legal psychology, focusing on concealed crime knowledge detection, line up identification procedures, and investigative interviewing of witnesses, suspects, and victims. Each section features a description of current Japanese practice, followed by a review of the current state of the relevant academic legal psychological literature. We then connect this practice and research synergy to a reflection with suggestions for future research. Taken together, our paper acts as a conduit to incentivise more research and practice collaboration for Japanese and non-Japanese audiences and presents opportunities for collective international legal psychology.

Authors:   The Korean Journal of the Human Development, Choi Jungwon , Lim JungHa , Jeong Yejee
Published: April 2024

This study aims to develop a short form of the Peer Rejection Sensitivity Questionnaire (PRSQ; Choi, 2023) and assess its psychometric properties. A sample of 463 children in the 5th and 6th grades from elementary schools participated in the study. Self-report data were collected using questionnaires on peer rejection sensitivity, in-secure friendship attachment, and peer relationship problems. Exploratory factor analyses yielded a short form of the PRSQ consisting of 17 items with four factors including re-jection expectation, anger/depression, interpretation bias, and anxiety/withdrawal. Correlation analyses demonstrated strong associations between scores of the original and the short forms. The short form of the PRSQ exhibited high internal consistency and split-half reliability. Furthermore, it displayed appropriate criterion-related validity, with substantial associations with the CRSQ. Children in the top 30 percent of insecure friend-ship attachment and peer relationship problems scored significantly and practically higher on peer rejection sensitivity than those in the bottom 30%, supporting the known-group validity of the short form. The short form of the PRSQ serves as a valuable instrument for measuring peer rejection sensitivity of school-age children within research and counsel-ing settings.

Authors:   The Korean Journal of the Human Development, Jeong Soojeong , Baek Saebome , Im Tami
Published: April 2024

The purpose of this study is to analyze the educational needs of graduate stu-dents regarding artificial intelligence (AI) ethics and to examine whether these educational needs differ according to the frequency of AI use. Participants were 593 graduate stu-dents enrolled in a large university in Seoul, South Korea. We used a self-reported survey to measure students' levels of current understanding and their perceived importance of 22 items related to AI ethical standards. We analyzed the data using the Borich needs as-sessment model as well as The Locus for Focus Model. Our results identified safety, ac-countability, transparency, human rights protection, and non-infringement as the top pri-orities for AI ethics education for graduate students. Accountability emerged consistently and was identified as the top priority for educational needs, regardless of the frequency of AI use. On the other hand, privacy and transparency were found to be more important for those who use AI less frequently, and safety was found to be more important for those who use AI more frequently. Our findings will provide valuable insights for designing and developing AI ethics educational programs for graduate students, ultimately helping them in enhancing their ethical awareness and competence in relation to AI.

Published: April 2024

Background and study aim: Plyometric training is widely acknowledged as an effective option for athletes to attain improved physical performance. A variety of exercises involving the lower limb's stretch-shortening cycle can be used for plyometric training. Numerous studies have examined the impact of plyometric training on various outcomes in various populations over the past few decades.

Objective: This study set out to ascertain how a six-week plyometric training programme affected the development of speed-strength fitness measurements in male team handball athletes.

Material and methods: Total of thirty intercollegiate level team handball athletes were randomly assigned to 2 groups i.e. plyometric training group with an average age of 20.7 ± 0.7 years, height of 175.3 ±4.2, weight of 75.1 ± 4.1 and BMI of 24.43 ± 0.97; control group with an average age of 20.8 ± 0.7, height of 175.1 ± 4., weight of 74.9 ± 3.1 and BMI of 24.47 ± 1.37. The linear sprint (10 m and 30 m), standing long jump (SLJ), and change of direction sprint (CODS) were evaluated before and after the intervention for thirty male team handball athletes who were randomly assigned to either the plyometric training group (PTG) (n = 15) or the control group (CG) (n = 15).

Results: Within group changes were analyzed using paired t-test. The significant differences obtained between the tests in all dependent variables.

Conclusion: When it comes to linear sprints, standing long jumps, and change of direction sprints, plyometric training works better than CG. Consequently, adding either plyometric training or sport-specific training to an athlete's regimen may help male team handball players achieve greater speed-strength fitness.

Authors: Caicedo-Muñoz Silvia , Solarte-Pazos Leonardo , Sterling Bastidas Ana María
Published: April 2024

Los procesos de toma de decisiones en política pública tienden a estudiarse desde perspectivas racionalistas y en diversos modelos de decisión. Sin embargo, desde el punto de vista de algunas teorías organizacionales, tanto las emociones como las percepciones de los actores tienen un rol en el proceso decisorio, lo que genera tensiones en la literatura relacionada con elementos subjetivos y la motivación racional. Este artículo analiza los aspectos subjetivos y las características organizacionales de los tomadores de decisión en una organización pública a través del método autoetnográfico y de una estrategia de análisis narrativa. Los resultados muestran cómo una organización pública es autopoiética y su constitución depende de las emociones debido a los nexos con los deseos, las creencias y la información, así como la acción comunicativa es relevante en la gobernabilidad local. La investigación aporta a los estudios desde las ciencias sociales aspectos relevantes sobre la subjetividad y las organizaciones públicas, y a la dimensión organizacional, sobre la formulación de políticas públicas.

Special Economic Zones (SEZs) aim to boost the economy of a region or even a country. In Indonesia, as of 2022, eighteen regions belonged to SEZs, and Singhasari is among those regions—the only SEZ with a digital economic concept. In its implementation, a Good Governance concept is needed to allow for the organisation of management and the achievement of the goals of the development of the SEZ. Concepts such as Community Participation, Stakeholder Involvement, and Local Ownership will be discussed in this research. On the other hand, technology can be utilised to give value to SEZ. The digitalisation of the SEZ can be used in the implementation of Good Governance concepts as well as attracting people and investors to participate. The concept of digitizing the SEZ Singhasari area utilising Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality can be used to introduce the SEZ of Singhasari. Besides, there are also other features such as legal materials underpinning the development of SEZ Singhasari. This study used the principle of Good Governance that underlies SEZ governance. Meanwhile, the concept of digitalisation with the addition of augmented and virtual reality will be used as one of the breakthroughs to harmonize development in the current technological era.

Authors: Sanuri Sanuri
Published: April 2024

several points in the Criminal Code (KUHP) which are considered controversial. The theme above will be broken down through several important features in the theory of maqasid al-shari'ah, namely: (1) the principle of maslahah in the rubber article of corruption; (2) reduction of criminal penalties for corruptors in the lens of hifz al-nafs; (3) corruption as an extraordinary crime vs. hifz al-mal; (4) distance the deterrent effect and benefit corruptors from the perspective of hifz al-mal; and (5) daruriyyah level for the Corruption Perception Index (CPI) in Indonesia. In this study, data were obtained through documentation techniques while still based on a deductive mindset and a descriptive-critical-analysis model. The results of the study explain that the spirit of novelty in the Criminal Code in Indonesia is directly proportional to the spirit of realizing maslahah for all components of the nation and has fulfilled the character of daruriyyah. However, there are still a few problems in the aspects of hifz al-nafs and hifz al-mal because several points of change have not fully reflected the demands of the wider community.
Key words: Corruption crime, Criminal Code, hifz al-mal, maqasid al-shari’ah

Reviewing John Locke’s Concept of Power From the Perspective of Al-Maududi
Authors: Mohamad Latief  , Muhamad Fajar Pramono  , Sansayto Ide Mafaza
Published: April 2024

The concept of power today is much influenced by the thoughts of John Locke. The power shaped by John Locke gives this country a liberal character. Individual rights are at the centre of all interests. In the history of Islam, some concepts have been very important in shaping Islamic perceptions of democracy. This research is library research because it is library research. The approach used is a historical-philosophical approach. This paper dissects John Locke's democratic thinking, which is analysed using the democratic thinking of a contemporary Muslim intellectual, namely Abu A'la Maududi. Theo-democracy is a system of government initiated by Al-Maududi by combining the concepts of monotheism and trias politica. The Al-Maududi Islamic State must be built on the basis of Islam, which is the main foundation of Tawhid. According to Maududi, power in the form of sovereignty is based primarily on God's sovereignty rather than the sovereignty of the people. The theo-democratic system is divided into three institutions: the legislature, executive, and judiciary.

Mexico is the main producer of avocado (Persea americana Mill.), contributing 31% of the world supply, which provides the country with an annual income of more than 2 billion dollars. The increase in national production is the result of a larger cultivated area, and not an increase in yields. In the State of Mexico, Mexico around 10 thousand hectares are cultivated with avocado trees, although 77% of the producers do not have specialized technical advice that offers reliable information on crop nutrition. This lack of advice and technical support detracts from volume and quality of production. The objective of this research was to carry out the nutritional diagnosis of an avocado orchard in Tejupilco, State of Mexico, Mexico, through the Compositional Nutrient Diagnosis (CND), and to generate specific fertilization recommendations for the study area, for which leaf and soil analyses were carried out. Each nutrient determined in the leaf analysis (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, and B) was compared with its optimal concentration according to literature. The CND yielded relative deficiency or excess indices that determined the order of nutritional limitation. Zn, B, S, and K deficiencies were detected in all sampled areas, while P, Mn, and Cu were deficient only in some areas. N, Ca, Mg, and Fe did not show nutritional limitation. Recommendations were formulated to address each of the nutritional deficiencies and the problem of sodicity revealed by the soil analysis. This is the first work in which the CND is used to assess the nutritional situation of avocado orchards in the world.

During 21st century, abiotic stress has adversely affected the agriculture crop production around the globe. Keeping in view the food requirement under water shortage condition, a study was planned to investigate the effect of thiamine application on radish crop under drought stress conditions on plant. For study purpose, two varieties of locally available radish (‘Early-Milo’ and ‘Laal-Pari’) were grown with normal water application as well as thiamine (100 mg L-1) application while maintaining a stress condition (60% field capacity). Increasing water deficit stress linearly reduced plant growth, yield and biomass in both varieties by reducing water use efficiency, while significantly enhanced these attributes with thiamine application. Thiamine application under drought stress exerted significant impacts on physiological attributes in both varieties, including enhanced osmolytic attribute in drought conditions and improvements in superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), H2O2, and malondialdehyde (MDA) activities in plant leaves. Antioxidant and osmoprotectant upregulation positively linked to radish crop's drought tolerance. Moreover, PCA and heatmap analysis revealed a significant interdependence among various traits and interconnected in determining the crop's capacity to sustain growth under conditions of drought stress. In crux, thiamine application conclusively enhances radish growth, yield, biomass, physio-chemical and osmolytic attributes, ionic composition and enzymatic antioxidant potential. Therefore, it is recommended to consider the application of thiamine in commercial agriculture practices to mitigate the negative effects of drought stress on radish crop production.

Irrigated agriculture from now on should be implemented under water scarcity. Hence, this research was designed to determine the optimal interaction between irrigation water-rationing strategy (deficit irrigation), irrigation techniques, and soil mulching to improve water use efficiency and maintaining plant performance as well as yield productivity of tomatoes. The experiment was set up during the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 growing seasons. Three factors were studied: two drip irrigation techniques, surface (SI) and subsurface (SSI) irrigation, and two irrigation rates, 100% ETc for full irrigation (FI) and 60% ETc for deficit-irrigation (DI) along with three treatments of soil mulching, bare soil (BS), organic mulch (OrM) and black polyethylene mulch (BPE). The results demonstrated that applying the absolute regular DI regime significantly reduced vegetative growth, fruit yield, and yield component along with water productivity. Also, it reduced the physiological function measures, and nutrient content of the tomato leaf. Meanwhile, applying the DI regime via the SSI technique and integrated with BPE soil mulching proved the best optimization of the DI negative effect followed by applying the DI regime through either SSI or SI technique combined with OrM or BPE soil mulching, respectively. As a result, it is advisable to use the integration of DI via the SSI accompanied by BPE soil mulching since this is considered a good method for conserving irrigation water from being lost by both evaporation and seepage out of the root zone improving water use efficiency without significantly reducing tomato yield.

The adverse impacts of soil degradation and nutrient loss resulting from water erosion are significant environmental concerns that have profound implications for both water quality and biodiversity. This study aims to evaluate the impact of forest fires on soil loss through water erosion in the Serra da Canastra National Park, in Minas Gerais state, Brazil. Using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE), which considers rainfall erosivity, soil erodibility, slope length and slope and vegetation cover, the C factor (vegetation cover) values were obtained from data from literature and methods based on the Normalized Differential Vegetation Index (NDVI). Validation was carried out using data on total sediment, water flow and daily runoff from the hydrosedimentological station and the InVEST software. The results highlight the significant impact of wildfires on soil loss through water erosion and indicate that areas recently affected by wildfires, especially on steep slopes and with more erodible soils, are subject to the highest rates of soil loss. Soil loss rates varied from 0.75 to 12.55 Mg ha-1 yr-1, in part due to the different ways of obtaining factor C. The research emphasizes the need to conserve vegetation cover to prevent soil erosion, particularly in regions impacted by forest fires. This study offers valuable insights that can contribute to enhancing the sustainable environmental management of the Serra da Canastra National Park.

Despite the existence of more than 37,000 different varieties of roses worldwide, there remains a significant interest and high relevance in rose breeding. The rose is the most beloved flower in the world, commonly named the “queen of flowers”. In addition to its remarkable ornamental significance, the rose possesses various ecological, environmental, landscaping, food, pharmaceutical and medicinal, cosmetic, and industrial attributes, among others, thereby contributing to its overall socio-economic value. The current study investigated the results of rose breeding in a horticulture research center in the northwest of Romania with over 70 years of experience.  The main method used to generate variability for the selection of new genotypes was artificial hybridization. After 1970, an average of 15-20 crossings per year were carried out, in different parental formulas or types of crosses, with approximately 1000-2000 flowers per pollinated per parental combination. Thousands of F1 hybrids were obtained annually (approximately 10,000-12,000 hybrids per year per hybrid combination), and dozens of elites were selected, grafted, and promoted as clonal selections in comparative trials. The success rate in obtaining new varieties through hybridization was 5.1% from total hybrid combinations, 0.72% from total hybrids, and 1.6% from total clonal selections. Of the total new varieties, hybrid teas represent 11.9%, floribundas 64.2%, shrubs 16.6%, and others 7.1%. 38 new cultivars suitable for open field cultivation were obtained, showing different habits, decorative value, flowering behavior, flower color, fragrance, resistance to frost or major diseases, and intended use. The exploration of new research directions aimed at harnessing the potential of roses, the region, and the socio-economic requirements was undertaken to enhance and beauty degraded, or landslide-prone lands, as well as to introduce damascene roses for the oil perfume and cosmetics industry.

In vitro and in vivo studies were conducted to investigate the potential of four biocontrol agents (BCAs), namely Bacillus megaterium, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Trichoderma viride, and T. harzianum, individually and in combination with sodium nitrophenolate (SN) to control marigold powdery mildew. The results showed that all treatments led to a significant inhibition in the conidial germination of Golovinomyces cichoracearum in vitro. Maximum inhibition was recorded by T. harzianum (1×109 CFU mL-1) + SN (1.5%), followed by T. viride + SN, and B. megaterium + SN at the same concentrations as follows: 83.6, 79.1, and 70.6%, respectively. While the lowest inhibition (20.4%) was recorded by P. fluorescens (1×105 CFU mL-1). In the greenhouse, all treatments applied significantly reduced the disease severity and the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC). The combination treatments had a better disease control response than individual treatments. Similar results were achieved in the field, where disease severity reduced to 9.2 and 10.3% in plants treated with T. harzianum + SN in the first and second seasons, respectively, compared to 40.2 and 44.1% in control in both seasons. Likewise, AUDPC reduced to 274 and 315 in plants treated with T. harzianum + SN in the first and second seasons, respectively, compared to 1207 and 1340 in control in both seasons. The treatments improved growth and productivity characteristics, as well as photosynthetic pigments, total phenolic compounds (TPC), and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity, while significantly reducing free proline (FP). In conclusion, BCAs applied individually or in combination with SN can be used effectively to suppress powdery mildew of marigold.
