Authors: Rahman Chowdury M Luthfur , Syed Misbah Uddin , Fahim Nurul Alam , Mia Md Rasel
Published: September 2023

Industry 4.0 is considered as the fourth industrial revolution (4IR) and involves virtual and physical systems that are interconnected and collaborative in an autonomous way. The ready-made garments (RMG) sectors in Bangladesh have been undergoing a transition that encompasses the digitization of garment production processes. This research work provides the readiness assessment of the RMG sector of Bangladesh regarding industry 4.0 deployment. Industry 4.0 is a relatively advanced theory within the RMG factories, and it promotes the interest on how to make utilization of technologies included in the idea and take benefit from them as well. The study dilemma is that there is a limited amount of readiness assessments available that cover problems of interest. The research question has been created to assess the readiness level of the RMG sector in Bangladesh with regard to the application of Industry 4.0. The data collection and analysis techniques were adopted from the IMPULS model which is a foundation of the German Engineering Federation, VDMA (Verband Deutscher Maschinen- und Anlagenbau). The quantitative method of the IMPULS model was modified to address the study issue accordingly. The findings demonstrate that RMG factories are rated no higher than level two out of six levels (0-5). It indicates that they are in the emerging state of implementing Industry 4.0 and facing significant challenges, particularly in strategy formation and facility infrastructure to fulfill the demands of Industry 4.0. The conclusion is that a great portion of RMG factories of Bangladesh is at the beginner level. The beginner level is comparable to level 1, which indicates a low level of readiness. Lack of knowledge, limited government help, poor infrastructure, cheap labor availability, and high initial investment costs could all be the contributing factors toward a lower level of readiness.

LEAF PIGMENT AND TOTAL CARBOHYDRATE CONTENT AT EARLY STAGES OF HERITIERA FOMES BUCH. SEEDLINGS GROWN AT THREE SALINE ZONES OF THE SUNDARBANS, BANGLADESH
Authors: Mariam Hasina , Alamgir ANM
Published: September 2023

The experiment was conducted to find the leaf pigments and carbohydrate content in Heritiera fomes at different growth stages exposed to different salinity levels in the Sundarbans areas, Bangladesh. Three leaf pigments, viz., chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotenoid, total chlorophyll, and total carbohydrate content of Heritiera fomes Buch. Ham seedlings were determined in the leaves grown in the oligohaline, mesohaline, and polyhalite zones at early (6 and 9 months) and survival ages (30 months) following standard methods. Leaves from seedlings at the age of 30 months (survival aged) show relatively high leaf pigments than that of the 6 and 9-month-old seedlings grown in the three saline zones. Total chlorophyll content in leaves was found low in the oligohaline zone at the early and survival ages, but higher in the polyhalite zone at the early ages, and higher in the mesohaline zone at the survival age. Chlorophyll b was relatively higher than chlorophyll a. Leaves of 30 months seedlings showed relatively higher chlorophyll a than chlorophyll b at the polyhalite zone, but higher chlorophyll b was noted at the mesohaline zone. The highest content of total carbohydrates was observed in the shoots of 6, 9, and 30 months ages H. fomes seedlings in the polyhalite zone, while the lowest was in the mesohaline zone. At the same age periods in the mesohaline zone, the roots of the H. fomes seedlings showed relatively higher carbohydrate content and lower at the 30 months seedlings in the all saline zones. Chlorophyll a was found to be more sensitive than chlorophyll b and carotenoid at different salinity levels tested. Higher carbohydrate content was discovered as an additional mechanism to prevent salt toxicity at early ages of high saline conditions (polyline zone).
TREND IN CLIMATE CHANGE-INDUCED MIGRATION: A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS
Authors: Nasrin Nishad , Haider Mohammed Ziaul , Ahsan Md. Nasif
Published: September 2023

Literature argues that numerous climatic factors contribute to migration decisions. To understand the complex interplay between climate change impacts and migration-decision, we need to analyse how the factors affect the said decision. This bibliometric review aims to analyse the climate change and migration literature and assess future research opportunities for exploring climate-induced migration. This review considers 4658 documents extracted from Scopus by performing a search with the words 'migration', 'climate change', 'climatic hazard' and 'coastal region' covering journal articles, review papers, book chapters, books, and conference papers from 2011 to 2020. This study applied VOSViewer for analysis. Results reveal that climate change is a dominant driver of migration, and the literature is deeply rooted in the United States and the United Kingdom. The lexical network shows that the developed countries which are less vulnerable to climatic hazards produce more co-authored documents. Furthermore, in the migration discourse, the co-authors from developed countries have strong ties exhibiting migration and climate change research, mainly concentrated among the collaborative framework of developed countries’ researchers. Therefore, more research on migration and climate change issues in collaboration with the global south and north is highly demanding, providing further insights into the existing research arena.
INSECT-INDUCED FOLIAR GALLS: A CROSS-TALK AMONG PHYTOHORMONES FOR TISSUE GROWTH AND ENDOGENOUS DEFENSE
Authors: Roy Sampurna , Das Amlan
Published: September 2023

Insect-induced gall tissue has a unique ability to influence its hosts' phenotypic expression. When plants are stressed by insects, phytochemical manipulations in galling tissue strengthen the plant's resilience to subsequent herbivore attacks, and as a result, the damaged plant tissue regenerates and rejuvenates. Gall tissue development and differentiation are initiated by changes in and modulation of a variety of phytohormones in the affected galling sites. Such hormonal changes ultimately boost the plant's ability to respond to herbivore invasions. In this study, the insect-induced gall tissues of three model plants—mature and immature galls and non-gall tissue—were evaluated for five phytohormone gradients. Phytohormone gradients are continually altered and compared from non-differentiated (non-gall) tissue to moderately (immature gall) and highly (mature gall) developed tissue. The results indicate that phytohormones serve a dual role in stimulating the plant's endogenous defense and promoting tissue growth, pointing to a complex chemogenesis process in galling tissue associated with developing neoplasm and plant defensive responses. Tissue abnormalities in galls are thought to have resulted from the herbivore's interactions with the plant on which it infests. Insects' ovipositing fluids or oral discharge may have also contributed to the accumulation of phytohormones in the stressed and wounded tissue. Foliar galls are thus a sign of manifestation of insects' adaptation since the herbivore and their hosts are likely to co-evolve in the context of chemical adaptation.
BANGLADESH WILDLIFE: A CALL TO ARREST ITS DECLINATION THROUGH REMEDIAL POLICIES AND MANAGEMENT
Authors: Khan Mohammad Ali Reza
Published: September 2023

Bangladesh, located between latitudes 20°34' to 26°38' north and longitudes 88°01' to 92°41' east, is the most densely populated country in the world with 1,252 people per one square kilometre; this is almost three times as dense as its neighbour, India (Ritchie, 2020), other than the island countries like Singapore, and others. So, Bangladesh is not likely to have a large array of wildlife, including both megafauna and macrofauna, and flora. However, because of its very zoo-geographic location in the Indo-Malayan realm of the Oriental Region (Cox, 2001), Bangladesh supports at least three major terrestrial habitats and similar number of aquatic environments. These have allowed the country to have astounding number of wildlife and plants, e.g., about 125 species of Mammals, 718 species of Birds, 2500 species of arthropods and 5700 species of vascular plants. However, it is not satisfied status because already lost few charismatic megafaunas such as, all three species of Asian rhinoceroses, water buffalo, swamp deer, two species of peafowls, swamp partridge, Bhadi Hans (white-winged duck, Khan, 1983a, 1983b, 2003), marsh crocodile, etc. Existing study posits that the country has already lost about 10% of its mammals, 3% birds and 4% of reptile species and an unknown number of amphibians, fishes, and invertebrates as well as plants. Another 14% of animal species are endangered (Khan, 2012). The same may very well be true for the plants.Currently the Forest Department, which has its own forestry policy from as early as 1979, has failed to develop such a policy for wildlife although it is trying to manage the wildlife of the country from the inception of Bangladesh in 1971.The department lacks in right workforce trained in wildlife with proper degree in relevant subjects. A few  people that work there does not see progressions in their service carrier.The wildlife conservation policy followed round the world does not conform to the forestry policy of Bangladesh.So, Bangladesh must have a concrete wildlife and its sustainable management policy to conserve the wildlife wealth through creating a proper wildlife department to implement such a policy and save the wildlife from further killing or loss of wildlife through managerial failures or mismanagement.
OPPORTUNITY TO INNOVATE FOR INFANTS

Dear Reader, Lactose intolerance is well-known for decades. Difficulty to metabolize lactose due to a genetic disorder, though exists in a large population, has not been taken too seriously. Reason being, it’s not a fatal disorder and the intolerance leads to some amount of bloating, indigestion, maybe a bit of acidity, and distaste to drink milk. However, as science and technology progressed, one of the numerous causes for fatalities of newly born infants and children have come to the forefront. Though rare, genetic (inherited) disorders in which the body cannot turn food into energy and metabolize, have been detected. These are referred as inborn errors of metabolism (IEM). Such disorders are usually caused by defects in specific proteins (enzymes) that help breakdown (metabolize) parts of food. Examples include organic acidurias, fatty acid oxidation defect, urea cycle disorder, mitochondrial disease, galactosemia, maple sugar urine disease (maple sugar disorder), fructose intolerance, phenyl ketone urea amongst others

Published: September 2023

The events observable at the atomic scale cannot be adequately explained by classical physics, hence a new conceptual framework for physics must be developed. "Quantum mechanics" is the name given to this new theory of the physical cosmos. The basic formula of relativistic quantum mechanics is the problem of Klein-Gordon. In relativistic quantum physics, the wave function is crucial since it contains all the data describing a quantum system, in relativity quantum physics, they are crucial. How to solve Klein Gordon's equation has been the topic of intense debate in recent years. To determine the system's spectrum using numerous potentials and methodologies. To obtain the Klein-Gordon issues solution Through determining the harmonic and perturbed Coulomb potentials' energies, The recent study employed an entirely distinct methodology. using the Semi-Inverse Variational Technique to aid in the process, we were able to identify the eigen energies for Harmonic- and Perturbed Coulomb Potentials for a variety of quantum numbers. A further benefit of the technique was that it enabled us to obtain the wave eigenfunctions for various potentials, demonstrating the viability of this approach. We are excited to deal with additional challenges in our upcoming works, the first being the use of nonlinear potentials to solve the Dirac equation due to the effectiveness of this approach.

The Status of the Barheaded Goose in Delhi & the adjoing areas of Harayana & Western Uttar Pradesh
Authors: Urfi Abdul Jamil
Published: September 2023

This article examines the status of the Barheaded Goose in the Delhi region and neighbouring areas of Haryana and Western Uttar Pradesh, which are characterized by the presence of the Yamuna and Ganges rivers, resulting in the abundance of wetlands. The study is based on a limited dataset, drawing from prominent works and personal observations, while acknowledging the unavailability of extensive literature on wintering ducks. The Barheaded Goose is one of three goose species wintering in the region, commonly encountered in small to medium-sized flocks arriving in late winter. It is presumed to overwinter in the area. The goose favours large water bodies and riverside sand bars for roosting, primarily consuming a vegetarian diet comprising gram, tubers, wheat shoots, winter crops, and paddy stubbles. Recent sightings indicate a shift from wetland habitats to adjacent areas. Flock sizes vary, with reports of family parties, gaggles, and observations of flocks numbering up to 100 or more birds. The conservation status of the species hinges on its preference for grassy wetland banks and waterlogged fields, which are increasingly threatened by construction activities. The well-irrigated landscape of the region supports agriculture, potentially sustaining the geese. Although contemporary records do not indicate a drastic decline in Barheaded Goose numbers, their preferred habitats face severe disturbances due to construction, posing a threat to the species. Additionally, the region's susceptibility to poaching and culling, attributed to meat consumption and agricultural interference, might further impact the goose's population.

Published: September 2023

This article delves into the winter habits and distribution patterns of Bar-headed geese (Anser indicus) in the Maharashtra region of India. The study draws on decades of observations to illuminate the migratory behaviors of these geese within the state. Bar-headed geese, renowned for their extraordinary migratory journey across the Himalayas, have been sighted in Maharashtra since the 1980s. They exhibit a preference for established water bodies, especially ancient tanks that date back over a century.

The research centers on specific locales, such as the Veer reservoir on the Nira river, the Rajewadi tank in Satara district, the Ujni reservoir, the Hipparga tank near Solapur, and various tanks around Aurangabad city. Particularly significant is the Vidarbha region in eastern Maharashtra, which emerges as a key zone for the winter migration of waterfowl. The presence of the Satpuda mountain ranges shapes the geese's migration routes, while the drainage systems—such as the Tapi river basin and the Wainganga river system—guide their movements.

Records of sightings by diverse observers during the 1990s contribute invaluable data to understanding the distribution of Bar-headed geese in Maharashtra. Notable sites like Umred tank, Sukhna reservoir, Jayakwadi, Paradgaon, Telhra, Tadoba, and others have been meticulously documented. The analysis demonstrates the relatively modest but steady presence of these geese across diverse regions in the state, spanning western Maharashtra, Marathwada, and Vidarbha.

In essence, this article offers an encompassing perspective on the winter activities and geographical distribution of Bar-headed geese in Maharashtra. It sheds light on their migratory tendencies and the environmental factors that govern their movement. The extended period of observation and insights gleaned from this research contribute significantly to our comprehension of the behaviors and presence of these remarkable migratory birds within the region.

Published: September 2023

The main objective of this article was to explore how experiential learning theory can be adopted into teachers' professional development, as an effective approach to engaging teachers in classroom-enhanced activities. The inclusion or design of various experiential learning activities will promote pedagogical content knowledge and teaching skills that can enhance classroom practices. The theoretical framework of experiential learning enables effective classroom instructional delivery for all learning experiences in different contexts. The study purposefully selected 10 teachers, teaching Economics, from 10 high schools in Lagos, Nigeria. These teachers were observed in different classroom settings/teaching of selected topics from Economics, before and after a 3-day experiential learning-based professional development workshop. The teachers were further engaged in a focus group interview after the final observation. Findings revealed that experiential learning theory is critical to teacher professional development, as it enables teachers to learn better when engaged in experientially designed professional development, which can impact their classroom teaching thereafter. The study, therefore, encourages teacher educators or government bodies responsible for content design for teachers' professional development to integrate or structure the contents of teachers' professional development with experiential learning initiatives, to improve teachers' classroom pedagogies and teaching competencies for quality education.

The cultural values of the nation, traditions, symbols, folklore, myths and legends, constitute the collective memory of this society. These values, created by educational and cultural centers, express the leading aspirations of the nation that created them and play a special role in shaping the identity of nations. The cultural identity of the population of Abkhazia rested on centuries-old traditions of Georgian-Abkhaz historical coexistence. This determined the fact that Abkhazia had remained a part of the all-Georgian cultural and historical universe. Since the end of the 17th century, when local Christian cultural and educational centers were liquidated in Abkhazia, cultural life in Abkhazia was supported only by the church centers of the Principality of Samegrelo (Odishi). Throughout the 19th century, the House of the Abkhaz principals was the center of the cultural life of Abkhazia. Even after the abolition of the Abkhaz principality (1864), representatives of the former ruling dynasty and people close to them determined the main aspects of social and cultural life. Above this, the history of the cultural life of Abkhazia of the 19th and early 20th centuries knows many prominent Georgians and Abkhazians, who great contributed to the creation of the cultural identity. The history of the cultural life of Abkhazia in the 19th and early 20th centuries reflects the main aspirations and characteristics of the cultural identity of the Abkhazian population: the establishment of new educational and cultural centers, close ties and cooperation with the progressive society of Tbilisi.
