Coral reef ecosystem is one of the ecosystems located in coastal areas which has a very important role for the community, both economically and ecologically. Rock or scleractinian corals are the main building blocks of coral reef ecosystems. The connectivity of coral reef ecosystems with other ecosystems has a very large influence on the life cycle of reef fish such as spawning, rearing, foraging, and sheltering places. Herbivorous fish are that eat turf algae or macroalgae that inhibit the recruitment of new corals. Labuan Bajo is one of the tourism destinations in Indonesia, especially marine tourism. Coral reefs in Labuan Bajo cover 10.8% of the total area of coral reefs in Indonesia located in Nusa Tenggara. The purpose of this study was to determine the health of coral reefs in the waters of Labuan Bajo. This research will be carried out from September to October 2021. The coral reef data collection method used is the Underwater Photo Transect (UPT), and for reef fish is using the Underwater Visual Census (UVC) method. Based on the research results, the percentage of hard coral is 20.16% of the total stations and rubble is 32.24%. The abundance of fish in Labuan Bajo waters ranges from 1608.89 - 4600.00 ind/ha, where the average abundance is 2919.78 ind/ha. All stations got a health index value of 3, this is indicated by the low coral cover, high coral resilience, and low herbivorous fish biomass obtained.

La reacción de los indicadores de empleo durante la crisis financiera de 2008. ¿Afecta el déficit excesivo a las condiciones de vida de los europeos?
Authors: Cagigas-Ibaseta Gregorio
Published: March 2024

El presente artículo analiza el impacto de los fuertes desequilibrios fiscales que experimentaron las economías de los países de la Unión Europea en el periodo 2008-2018, principalmente debidos a la política fiscal implementada a raíz de la crisis financiera global. Con el objetivo de restaurar el equilibrio presupuestario, se desarrolló una respuesta coordinada desde el ámbito europeo inducida por la política de reglas fijada por el Pacto de Estabilidad y Crecimiento, condicionando la política fiscal a largo plazo.

La principal estrategia consiste en situar al ciudadano europeo en el centro del estudio, analizando cómo evoluciona el empleo, a partir de los datos proporcionados por EUSILC ante los intentos por restaurar el equilibrio presupuestario. La novedad del presente artículo reside en el enfoque empleado.

La mayoría de los trabajos previos se han basado en un enfoque macro tratando de cuantificar cómo el crecimiento económico y la productividad impactaban en la vida diaria de los europeos. Sin embargo, la investigación en este estudio persigue aislar y cuantificar los posibles efectos diferenciales en las condiciones de vida en función de las variables analizadas. En este sentido, se ha de resaltar que la relación entre los niveles de déficit excesivo y la evolución de los indicadores sociales, en este caso los correspondientes a los niveles de empleo, no ha sido estudiada con anterioridad.
Bayesian Decision Analysis For Benchmarking Daily And Monthly Time Series

Authors: Sanz-Gómez Jose-Antonio , Rojo-García José-Luis
Published: March 2024

In Business Time Series analysis, daily disaggregation of monthly time series is often needed when adjusting financial series (stock options, swaps, mortgages or other loans). The classical stochastic adjustment methods only allow quarterly or monthly benchmarks to be estimated and can only be applied when high frequency is a regular multiple of low frequency. Thus, they fail to offer solutions for such problems, thereby evidencing the need to develop tools and methods for high-frequency series (daily or weekly ones). This paper obtains the first known method for using daily indicators, taking into account the different number of days for each month. The proposed Bayesian (normal-gamma) method can employ several indicators for the likelihood model, also obtaining an explicit (non iterative) solution for the optimal estimate of high frequency series. It is also important to observe that the model includes a correction mechanism for volatile indicators, as is often found in benchmarking problems for small areas. The methodology, in the line of normal-gamma specifications, allows Bayesian Credibility intervals for the estimated daily series.

The basis of the study is the analysis of the possibilities of applying theoretical and practical approaches to the updating of topographic maps, the selection of vectorization methods,the use of tools for quick editing and geoprocessing of data, ensuring the implementation of a system of checks of the nomenclature sheet and automatic control and assessment of the quality of vectorization by using geoinformation technologies of the ArcGIS software. The article discusses the importance of research aimed at creating and updating electronic topographic maps of Ukraine. The authors investigate the processes of creating (updating) digital topographic maps on a scale of 1:50000 in order to form a single database of topographic maps on a scale of 1:25000. The key stages of creating (updating) electronic topographic maps on a scale of 1:25000 for Ukraine are described. Using the ArcGIS program, a practical example of updating a topographic map ofscale 1:25000 was developed, based on the application of geoinformation technologies, the use of scanned paper maps, recent aerial photographs and satel-lite images. Methodological aspects of vectorization, detailing, completeness of attributive information, topological consistency and consistency of data, as well as features of automated quality control of updated electronic topographic maps are analyzed. The results of the study confirm that the use of geoinformation technologies and process automation can provide an up-to-date topographic data base that is important for various fields, improving project planning and implementation. The created base of topographic data on a scale of 1:25000 takes into account the functionality of step-by-step vectorization, selection criteria, rules of topological relationships, and automated quality control using modern geoinformation technologies.
PROSPECTS FOR EVALUATION OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL DEFORMATIONS OF THE EARTH BASED ON DATA FROMGLOBAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEMS
Authors:   National University of Water and Environmental Engineering, Tadyeyev Oleksandr
Published: March 2024

Presented in the article information is of a scientific and methodical character. Accumulation of coordinate monitoring data in networks of permanent GNSS stations made it possible to increase the efficiency of solving of many problems of moderngeodynamics. At the same time, their use made it necessary to rethink traditional theoretical approaches to solving of the problem, in particular, in terms of developing methods for evaluation of three-dimensional deformations.The analysis of the used theoretical approaches and methods for evaluation of three-dimensional deformations of the Earth in this article are presented. The insufficient degree of their correspondence to the potential information resource of GNSS data is substantiated.The method for evaluation of deformations of the Earth from the standpoint of the theory of transformations of Riemannian space imagesin the form of complex diffeomorphic manifolds is proposed. Properties of complex manifolds in the form of a tangent Euclidean space, which is parameterized by a rectangular Cartesian coordinate system, are used. This choice is justi-fied by its identity with the ITRS system, which is used to monitoring of coordinates by the GNSS method. The algorithm for constructing a functional model of deformation based on the homeomorphism of transformations is formulated. The method involves the direct use of coordinates in the ITRS system and modeling of deformations of the curvilinear topographic surfaceof the Earth in three-dimensional space. The method provides evaluation of three-dimensional deformation tensors and related invariants, which belong to the topographic surface. Working formulas for evaluation of main linear deformations, dilatation and rigid rotation of the Earth have been obtained. The method is generalized for evaluation of nonlinear deformations
“Our Identity is Our Dignity”: Digital Transformations: Palestinian Aspirations, Idealism, Reality and Pragmatism

Published: March 2024

This article reports on a collaborative project for the digital innovation of language teaching in Palestine, and it argues for the necessity of mobile learning to circumvent disruption created by the Israeli occupation causing challenges that result in marginalisation and disenfranchisement of opportunity. This partly occurs through the oppression of a sovereign curriculum that supports Palestinian self-determination. This oppression is against both the United Nations Development Goals protected rights for education and the Palestinian Ministry’s vision for a society with an education sector that embraces the use of technology to invigorate the value of its culture, produce knowledge and promote emancipation. The article proposes the integration of digital technologies with student-centred learning to enhance and support transformation through three main elements: 1. Digital competence to develop confidence and agency in teachers; 2. Continuous teacher learning to develop autonomy and collaboration within organisations; 3. Problem-solving competencies, which can result in continuous improvement loops and local solutions to barriers. This article will resonate with those recognising the need for critical theory to challenge policy and practice where it deepens disadvantage. It draws upon the voices of 20 teachers from four higher education institutions in Palestine, who reflect on the barriers to innovation and a reclaiming of educational terrain.

Background:

Penetrating brain injury (PBI) can be caused by a variety of objects ranging from simple to complicated items. Nonetheless, it is strange and unusual to attack someone in the head with a long nail. Due to its rarity, care for them is still being developed and may include many steps.

Case Description:

We are presenting a 35-year-old guy who was neurologically intact and hemodynamically stable but complained of headaches following a nail blow into the skull during a domestic altercation by a gang of individuals. A computed tomography scan revealed the metallic item inside the brain parenchyma. The patient recovered well from the procedure, which included the early removal of the foreign body, evacuation of the hematoma, and dura repair. Our objective is to demonstrate a few broad management concepts that help enhance patient outcomes. We covered the clinical manifestation and effective treatment of such a rare injury in this study.

Conclusion:

Proper handling and rapid transport of patients to the advanced trauma center are crucial for victims of PBI. Timely and skilled interventions could prevent further nervous tissue damage and any related neurological dysfunction.

Background:

The persistent primitive trigeminal artery (PPTA) is a persistent embryological carotid-basilar connection. Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for hypoplastic PPTA occlusion is a challenge. This case report aims to describe the successful recanalization of simultaneous occlusions in both the PPTA and basilar artery (BA) using the Solitaire FR (RECO SR)/Stent and Intermediate Catheter Assisting (SWIM) technique in a patient with acute cardiogenic cerebral embolism. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of such a case.

Case Description:

We present a case of a 70-year-old female patient who presented with acute right-sided hemiparesis and altered consciousness. Digital subtraction angiography confirmed the occlusion of both the distal portion of the PPTA and the BA. The patient underwent EVT using the SWIM technique, resulting in successful recanalization and significant improvement in the patient’s condition.

Conclusion:

This case report demonstrates the successful application of the SWIM technique in achieving recanalization and improving outcomes in a patient with simultaneous occlusion of the acute PPTA and BA. These findings support the potential use of EVT in similar cases.

After the pandemic of COVID-19, there has been a growing interest in food safety concerns. Besides consuming wild-type animals, another focus is the synthetic compounds used in food preparation. Various reports show that antioxidant mechanisms might be closely related to decreasing the risk of disease infection. On 18 March 2020, Malaysia had the first Movement Control Order (MCO) that all communities must stay home. Public also questions whether natural food, mainly traditional Chinese medicine, can act as an antioxidant agent. Therefore, spectrophotometric procedures for determining the antioxidant capacities of selected samples were conducted. This method is based on scavenging 2, 2 diphenyl 1-picryl hydroxyl (DPPH) by adding a radical species or an antioxidant that decolourises the DPPH solution. This study aimed to compare, using the DPPH assay, the antioxidant level of Kappaphycus alvarezii to other traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) such as Andrographis paniculata, Lycium chinense and Ziziphus jujube. This study characterises the antioxidant activity of traditional Chinese medicines associated with carotenoid and total chlorophyll content from seaweed. Antioxidant analysis has shown that the highest antioxidant property was observed in the solvent extract of L. chinense. The DPPH assay provides an easy and rapid way to evaluate potential antioxidants in selected samples.

Published: March 2024

Plant-based alternative pesticides are safe, effective, eco-friendly and can be used instead of synthetic pesticides. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biocidal capacity of Datura stramonium leaves (DL) and flowers (DF) and Cannabis sativa seeds (CS) on Anopheles arabiensis, Culex quiquefasciatus and Aedes aegypti larvae. The selected plant parts were collected from the experimental farm, the University garden. The LC50s of A. arabinoses larvae towards the ethanol extract of each plant part were taken to estimate the single diagnostic dose for the survival and deformities tests. GC-MS analysis for the selected plant parts was investigated. The results show that DL ethanol extract detected 14 compounds of which butanol,3-methyl is the main component (79.76%) followed by toluene (6.14%). Phytol was also detected (3.9%). 14 compounds were detected from DF of which formic acid,3-methylbut-2-yl ester was the main component (82.22%) followed by dodecanoic acid, ethyl ester (3.3%) and toluene (2.86%). Also, from CS, Dronabinol (41.4%) was the main component, followed by Cannabinol (10.38%), Phytol (10.38%) and Caryophylene (2.07%). The susceptibility test of An. arabiensis larvae revealed the LC50’s of 562.95 mg/L for DL, 424.41 mg/L for DF and 175.40 mg/L for CS. It was noticed that 3-6% of An. arabiensis and 1-28% of Culex quiquefasciatus and 12-22% of Aedes aegypti larvae developed to pupae and some of them developed to adult stage after one week. In the survival test, more than 70% of the larvae were killed by a concentration supposed to kill 50% or less of the larvae. Some deformations were monitored on Anopheles, Culex and Aedes larvae including swelled body, separated alimentary canal. Field assessment should be run and the concept of LC50 should be re-written.

The increasing use of nanotechnology means that nanomaterials will inevitably enter the environment. Eco-toxicological data are therefore required so that adequate risk assessments can be carried out. Nanoparticles (NPs) exhibit greater reactivity as their sizes, less than 100nm size, are so small that their surface area is larger. The NPs can intrude into human body more easily and are more toxic than bulk material due to increased reactivity to cells in the body. Further, investigations on the ecotoxicology of NPs have also been conducted, aiming to assess NP’s harmful effects to the ecosystem. NPs of titanium dioxide (TiO2) are widely used in sun care products as well as in self-cleaning coatings. During the life cycle of these commercial products, NPs may be released into the environment and become a threat to ecosystems. Particularly, TiO2 NPs have been shown to have toxic effects and can inhibit the growth of essential soil microorganisms. This study focused on the toxicological and histopathological effects of TiO2 nanoparticles on Eudrilus eugenia, aiming to shed light on the potential hazards posed by nanoparticles to soil organisms. This study assessed the toxicity, biomass change, cocoon production and mortality rate of earthworms under various concentrations of titanium dioxide. The results showed that TiO2 nanoparticles could lead to sublethal effects on earthworm survival and reproduction and the nanoparticles were accumulated in earthworm tissues. The study emphasized the need to consider nanoparticle interactions with soil organisms.

The diverse group of chemicals used in making of plastic is known to be highly toxic and poses a serious threat to the biosphere. These substances besides hitting hard to ecosystem cause an array of problems like birth defects, cancer, damage of nervous and immune systems. The present research work was aimed to isolate and characterize PHB producing bacteria from landfill soil sample collected from Sanehally, Chitradurga district and qualitatively screened by using viable staining techniques. Quantitative estimation was examined by using solvent extraction method. The PHB producing bacteria were characterized based on morphological, biochemical and molecular identification and confirmed as Bacillus thuringiensis strain KUMBNGBT-41 (Accession No. MW040075). Growth parameters were optimized for biomass production using various conditions such as media-nutrient broth, incubation time-72hrs, temperature-37˚C, pH-7.0, carbon source-glucose, nitrogen source-ammonium chloride and carbon to nitrogen ratio as 4:1. The low-cost production media was used for PHB production by cheaper substrates in submerged fermentation. PHB was analysed and quantified by using UV-Visible spectrophotometer at 200-600nm.
