A PROTEÇÃO DOS DIREITOS SOCIOAMBIENTAIS: OS LIMITES DO MODELO DE DESENVOLVIMENTO HEGEMÔNICO E A ABERTURA PARA A DIVERSIDADE EPISTEMOLÓGICA DO MUNDO
Authors: CHRISTMANN L. L.
Published: December 2020

A temática do Desenvolvimento é de grande relevância na realidade atual em que se constata, de um lado, a existência de uma grande população mundial e de uma enorme gama de bens e serviços que são ofertados no mercado e, de outro, em que se observa uma crescente escassez de recursos naturais disponíveis para corresponder a todas as vontades humanas. É nesse cenário que ocorrem disputas entre diferentes projetos de sociedade e de futuro, permeados por distintos valores, princípios e conhecimentos.

Para mudarmos o mundo, e sensibilizando as pessoas, resgatando valores, buscando a esperança de um futuro melhor, nós precisamos mudar as crianças, e para isso conseguiremos somente através da educação.
Por uma História do Direito Ambiental Da Harmonia com a Natureza à Agenda 2030 a Génese
Authors: NADIR M. , ARAUJO L. E. B.
Published: December 2020

Parafraseando George Orwell e seu romance distópico, 1984, na qual profetiza e condena a perversão dum regime totalitário ou duma única pessoa que objetiva subjugar os cidadãos, inverter a história, governar de forma despótica e autoritária, poderá servir perfeitamente à mesma entidade (homem ou regime) em relação com o meio ambiente, em que visa-se apenas domar a natureza e desmata-la -como está acontecendo em vários lugares do mundo e não apenas na Amazónia e o Pantanalse for em prol do lucro e riqueza. O Big Brother is Watching You aplica-se ao homem latifundiário que não deixa a floresta crescer e florescer, em que o poder público se preocupa em passar leis que dão luz verde ao desmatamento, a expulsão dos indígenas dos parques e das suas legítimas terras, ao mesmo tempo não hesita em condenar líderes indígenas por «crime de se protestar» e, em última etapa, se for necessário, elimina-los tal como aconteceu com o Chico Mendes e outros defensores da floresta196.

Authors: CAVALCANTI A. L. , SCANDIUZZI B. F. , MACIEL J. T.
Published: December 2020

De acordo com as últimas estimativas do Instituto de Pesquisa Econômica Aplicada, em 2015, 101.854 pessoas viviam em situação de rua no Brasil (IPEA, 2016). Apesar das dificuldades em quantificar esta população, somada à falta de interesse público, sabe-se que as mulheres são a minoria. A população de rua sofre preconceito, discriminação e muitas formas de violência, tendo seus direitos sistematicamente ignorados pela sociedade e pelo poder público. Segundo a cartilha “Direitos das Pessoas em Situação de Rua”, do MPDFT, “as ações desenvolvidas pelo poder público devem alcançar a emancipação individual, como forma de resgatar a cidadania, promover direitos fundamentais e estimular a observância de deveres.”

Published: December 2020

Animal-assisted therapies are being widely acknowledged for improving the needs of children with various difficulties. One of the many animal-assisted therapies that are known to be beneficial includes equine therapy. The primary aim of this research was to study the improved language aspects of dyslexic children after undergoing five equine therapy interventions. The five equine therapy interventions include friendly introduction to horses, auditory comprehension, phonological awareness, sentence mastery and spelling ability. A randomised study was done by selecting 16 dyslexic children from Malaysia Dyslexia Association in carrying out equine therapy. Results from the study done proved that the dyslexic children chosen has demonstrated vast improvement in the following aspects of language, namely comprehension, phonological, sentence mastery and spelling. The general assumption of this study is that every equine therapy intervention has its own unique objective and outcome on dyslexic children. Further research is required in this domain to study the long-term effects of equine therapy in other areas of special need children.
Genetic Algorithm for Exam Timetabling Problem - A Specific Case for Japanese University Final Presentation Timetabling
Authors: LI Jiawei , Gonsalves Tad
Published: December 2020

This paper presents a Genetic Algorithm approach to solve a specific examination timetabling problem which is common in Japanese Universities. The model is programmed in Excel VBA programming language, which can be run on the Microsoft Office Excel worksheets directly. The model uses direct chromosome representation. To satisfy hard and soft constraints, constraint-based initialization operation, constraint-based crossover operation and penalty points system are implemented. To further improve the result quality of the algorithm, this paper designed an improvement called initial population pre-training. The proposed model was tested by the real data from Sophia University, Tokyo, Japan. The model shows acceptable results, and the comparison of results proves that the initial population pre-training approach can improve the result quality.
Regularization Method for Rule Reduction in Belief Rule-based SystemRegularization Method for Rule Reduction in Belief Rule-based System
Authors: Guan Yu
Published: December 2020

Belief rule-based inference system introduces a belief distribution structure into the conventional rule-based system, which can effectively synthesize incomplete and fuzzy information. In order to optimize reasoning efficiency and reduce redundant rules, this paper proposes a rule reduction method based on regularization. This method controls the distribution of rules by setting corresponding regularization penalties in different learning steps and reduces redundant rules. This paper first proposes the use of the Gaussian membership function to optimize the structure and activation process of the belief rule base, and the corresponding regularization penalty construction method. Then, a step-by-step training method is used to set a different objective function for each step to control the distribution of belief rules, and a reduction threshold is set according to the distribution information of the belief rule base to perform rule reduction. Two experiments will be conducted based on the synthetic classification data set and the benchmark classification data set to verify the performance of the reduced belief rule base.

Published: December 2020

O objetivo do presente estudo concentrou-se em analisar as concepções de avaliação da aprendizagem dos professores do curso de licenciatura em Matemática do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia da Paraíba (IFPB), Campus Cajazeiras, e suas influências nas práticas avaliativas na formação docente. A pesquisa, de caráter descritivo, de abordagem qualitativa, teve como sujeitos os professores do curso supracitado. Foram utilizados como instrumentos metodológicos de coleta de dados, questionários, entrevistas semiestruturadas e consulta ao Projeto Pedagógico de Curso (PPC). A análise dos dados foi realizada à luz do enfoque fenomenológico, com base na hermenêutica proposta por Hans-Georg Gadamer (1900-2002), com a técnica da fusão de horizontes. Constatou-se, dentre outros aspectos, que, apesar de muitos dos profissionais sinalizarem a intenção de realizar práticas de avaliação contínua, numa perspectiva formativa, ainda é muito forte a herança da avaliação vinculada à ideia de aplicação de testes, de mensuração.
Reflexões sobre avaliação a partir da obra “Pedagogia da autonomia” de Paulo Freire
Authors: Lopes Jayane Mara Rosendo , Maciel Alessandra de Oliveira
Published: December 2020

Paulo Freire atuou na educação pública como professor e gestor de uma secretaria de educação. Após as diversas experiências de vida, publicou em 1996 a sua última obra “Pedagogia da Autonomia: saberes necessários à prática educativa”. Dentre os diversos saberes, a obra apresenta uma perspectiva de avaliação crítica tanto da prática (ensino) quanto da aprendizagem (aluno), que estimule a autonomia de educadores e educandos como sujeitos transformadores da realidade. Neste sentido, temos como objetivo refletir sobre avaliação a partir da obra “Pedagogia da Autonomia” de Paulo Freire, considerando o conceito abordado pelo autor. Apontamos como resultado que a coexistência de professores e alunos exige uma avaliação para tomada de decisões construída por ambos. Além disso, faz-se necessário posicionarmos de forma crítica frente a modelos de avaliação reguladores do trabalho educativo, uma vez que assumindo uma postura crítico progressista devemos aliar o discurso a nossa prática. Outrossim é a necessidade constante, como professores e professoras, de uma formação permanente para ação-reflexão-ação.

Authors: Zacharias-Carolino Aline Gasparini , Fonte Camila Camargo Diniz , Lucca Tatiana Andrade Fernandes de
Published: December 2020

O presente artigo objetiva discutir possibilidades de avaliação da leitura e da escrita no ciclo de alfabetização a partir de jogos de regras. Para tanto houve uma pesquisa documental, na qual o foco de análise foi o planejamento de duas professoras, atuantes nos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental I, que utilizavam em sua prática pedagógica os jogos de regras com o propósito avaliativo, buscando analisar quais os usos desses recursos, assim como as possíveis contribuições para o processo de aprendizagem das crianças. Os resultados indicam que os jogos constituem-se como recursos relevantes para a avaliação dos estudantes, para além de atribuição de rótulos e classificações. Com isso, evidencia-se a importância de o professor compreender sua efetividade enquanto um dos recursos possíveis, bem como as intervenções necessárias durante sua utilização. Ressalta-se também a necessidade de investigações mais específicas sobre o tema, especialmente no contexto da alfabetização.

†Cretolixon – a remarkable new genus of rhopalosomatid wasps (Hymenoptera: Vespoidea: Rhopalosomatidae) from chemically tested, mid-Cretaceous Burmese (Kachin) amber supports the monophyly of Rhopalosomatinae
Authors: Lohrmann Volker , Zhang Qi , Michalik Peter , Blaschke Jeremy , Müller Patrick , Jeanneau Laurent , Perrichot Vincent
Published: December 2020

Abstract. Rhopalosomatidae, currently considered the sister group of the Vespidae, are an enigmatic family of aculeate wasps that originated in the Late Jurassic or Early Cretaceous. Despite their considerable age, very few fossils of the family have been reported – all of them in amber (Miocene Dominican, Miocene Mexican, and mid-Cretaceous Burmese ambers). Here we report a new mid-Cretaceous rhopalosomatid wasp, Cretolixon alatum Lohrmann, gen. et sp. nov., from Burmese (Kachin) amber. This new genus has a unique mixture of characters, some of which are only known from the recent brachypterous genus Olixon and others of which are known only from the recent macropterous genera. Thus, Cretolixon Lohrmann, gen. nov. not only provides further evidence for the monophyly of the family but also contributes evidence for the monophyly of the Rhopalosomatinae. Key characters of the family are discussed, and an updated checklist of the world genera and fossil species and occurrences of Rhopalosomatidae is provided. Additionally, a chemical analysis was performed for three of the newly reported fossils as well as for the amber piece containing the rhopalosomatid larva described by Lohrmann and Engel (2017) to ascertain their amber vs. copal nature and their affinities with each other and previously described Burmese amber.
Analysis of Secondary School Students' Attitudes and Self-Efficacy Perceptions towards Physical Education and The Sports Course
Authors: Arıkan Gökhan
Published: December 2020

This study aimed to analyze attitudes and self-sufficiency perceptions of students from different license of sports and students with no sports branches at the secondary school level towards the physical education and sports course. Education should not be based solely on the increased or widespread use of written sources, images, and technological tools and equipment. It is a process in which students are involved in social, mental, and sports activities. However, great emphasis is given to physical education and sports, which have a direct and indirect effect on their physical, mental, emotional and social development, within educational activities. The study included 255 students (120 female, 135 male) studying at two different secondary schools in Şanlıurfa (Vatan secondary school with a sports facility and Ziyaeddin Akbulut secondary school without a sports facility) during the 2019-2020 academic year, and the Physical Education Predisposition Scale was used in the study. The scale is comprised of 11 items. It consists of two factors, namely 'Attitude' (6 items) and 'Self-Efficacy' (5 items). A significant difference between these schools was found based on the findings obtained from this scale. When the results were examined according to the gender variable, it was found that there was a significant difference between male students and female students in terms of the total scale dimension. Again, a significant result in favor of males was found in terms of self-efficacy dimension scores. In terms of sports branches, a significant difference was found between students who are licensed athletes and those who are not. However, no statistical difference was found when examined in terms of the family profession group. According to the attitude dimension results, there was a significant difference between students engaged in basketball and students engaged in handball as well as students without a branch and students engaged in handball. According to the results of the self-efficacy dimension, there was a significant difference between students without a branch and students engaged in basketball as well as those without a license and those engaged in handball. According to our findings, it is thought that the significant difference between the license is related to the reflection of the attitudes of physical education teachers in schools onto the students.
¿Soy lo que ves? Microagresiones capacitistas y visibilidad de la discapacidad
Authors: Moral Cabrero Eva , Huete García Agustín , Díez Villoria Emiliano
Published: December 2020

Las microagresiones, como expresión de discriminación dirigida hacia personas con discapacidad, son un fenómeno social que cuenta con escasa atención en nuestro entorno. El presente trabajo supone una aproximación cuantitativa hacia la experiencia de microagresiones capacitistas, atendiendo tanto a su frecuencia como a la diversidad de sus manifestaciones. Presentamos los resultados obtenidos, bajo método de encuesta (n = 681), atendiendo al grado de visibilidad de la discapacidad. Nuestros datos respaldan la implicación de dicho factor como determinante de la experiencia de microagresiones capacitistas. Las personas con discapacidades visibles presentan niveles significativamente más altos en cuanto a la frecuencia de microagresiones. Para las personas con discapacidades semi visibles o invisibles, las microagresiones más habituales están relacionadas con el cuestionamiento de las necesidades de apoyo o la minimización de la discapacidad. La interpretación desde un sesgo binario, que identifica al otro como normal o anormal, sustenta multitud de prácticas producidas por el sistema capacitista.

Published: December 2020

El objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar el impacto de una intervención en educación emocional en un grupo de jóvenes con discapacidad intelectual. Los participantes fueron 16 jóvenes (7 mujeres) con discapacidad intelectual ligera o moderada de edades comprendidas entre los 18 y 28 años (M =24; DT = 3,04) integrantes del programa de formación para el empleo UNINCLUV de laUniversitat de València. Se administraron el cuestionario de Inteligencia Emocional de Bar-On: versión para jóvenes (EQ-i:YV; Bar-On y Parker, 2000) y la Escala de Comportamiento Asertivo (CABS; Woods et al., 1978). El diseño del estudio fue longitudinal con pretest, intervención y postest, sin grupo control. No se observaron diferencias en las puntuaciones obtenidas por los participantes antes y después del tratamiento en las distintas dimensiones de inteligencia emocional evaluadas (intrapersonal, interpersonal, estrés, adaptabilidad, estado de ánimo). Sin embargo, sí se observó un mayor uso de estrategias asertivas y un menor uso de estrategias pasivas entre los participantes tras la intervención. Asimismo, los participantes manifestaron un elevado grado de satisfacción con el programa. Los resultados obtenidos indican la necesidad de continuar con la implementación de programas universitarios que potencien tanto la inclusión como las competencias socioemocionales de las personas con discapacidad intelectual, con el fin de mejorar la calidad de vida de este colectivo.
Upper secondary school students’ perceptions of and experiences with feedback in English writing instruction
Authors: Saliu-Abdulahi Drita , Hellekjær Glenn Ole
Published: December 2020

Abstract

This paper presents a survey of student perceptions of feedback in English writing in a context where formative assessment is mandatory. The study comprises 329 first year upper secondary school students from seven schools in eastern Norway, and uses a survey to examine their perceptions of and experiences with feedback in EFL writing instruction. Overall, the findings reveal that students receive varied feedback, on language as well as global errors, but primarily to finished and graded texts. There is little use of feedback between drafts, or of oral conferencing and peer-feedback. While many students do not follow up feedback at all, those who do tend to focus on language error correction and less on global errors. However, student follow up in general, and of global errors in particular, increases markedly with unfinished and ungraded texts, possibly because of available time and teacher support during the revision process. This indicates that feedback utilization can be improved by setting aside classroom time to work with texts between drafts during which students can receive teacher support, and by making this an integrated part of English writing instruction.

Key words: L 2 writing instruction, feedback/formative feedback, formative assessment, multiple-sourced feedback.

 

Elevers oppfatninger om og erfaringer med tilbakemeldinger de får i skriveundervisningen i engelskfaget i den vidergående skole

Sammendrag

Denne artikkelen presenterer en kvantitativ studie av tilbakemeldinger i engelsk skriveundervisning i en kontekst hvor formativ vurdering er læreplanfestet. Den undersøker hvordan 329 norske VG1-studenter fra syv videregående skoler i øst Norge opplever og følger opp tilbakemeldingene de får som del av engelskfagets skriveundervisning. Funnene viser at studentene får variert feedback, med god balanse mellom kommentarene på språkfeil som på mer generelle feil med teksten, men at tilbakemeldingene først og fremst gis til ferdige tekster med karakter. Det er lite bruk av feedback til uferdige, ikke karaktervurderte tekster, av muntlig veiledning og av feedback fra andre studenter. Mens mange studenter ikke følger opp feedback overhodet, øker oppfølgingen, av språkfeil og i enda større grad av såkalte «globale» feil, markant de relativt sjeldne gangene de får til å arbeide med uferdige, ikke karaktervurderte tekster. Dette tyder på at utnyttelsen av feedback kan bedres ved at elevene får arbeide med uferdige tekster og med lærerstøtte mens de reviderer, og dette gjøres til en integrert del av engelskundervisningen.

Im-Mortal Man
Authors: Wilk Rafał Kazimierz ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: December 2020

The topics related to the creation of man and to the death of human being are, undoubtedly, the most interesting issues facing the human mind. In explaining them, Christian Philosophy is strongly supported by the philosophy of St. Thomas Aquinas, but there is also an attempt of explanation with referring to the process of evolution. In this article we present such an attitude elaborated by Polish Philosopher Fr. Tadeusz S. Wojciechowski. According to him the resurrection of Human Body takes place in the moment of one’s death. The death is the highest degree of biological evolution in which Man reaches the eternal life. Achieving the aim of biological evolution is not equal with the reaching spiritual evolution; at least not in case of every human being. Thus, the Purgatory helps to accomplish the task of spiritual self-fulfillment, unless one’s life led him to the eternal condemnation.
Operational Impacts of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Pandemic and Early Recovery Trends: University of Washington Anatomic Pathology Experience
Authors: Miller Timothy Isaac , Smith Kelly D. , Gonzalez-Cuyar Luis Francisco , Swanson Paul E.
Published: December 2020

Context.—

The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, caused by the novel coronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, has resulted in worldwide disruption to the delivery of patient care. The Seattle, Washington metropolitan area was one of the first in the United States affected by the pandemic. As a result, the anatomic pathology services at the University of Washington experienced significant changes in operational volumes early in the pandemic.

Objective.—

To assess the impact of coronavirus disease 2019 and both state and institutional policies implemented to mitigate viral transmission (including institutional policies on nonurgent procedures) on anatomic pathology volumes.

Design.—

Accessioned specimens from January to June 2020 were evaluated as coronavirus disease 2019 and institutional policies changed. The data were considered in these contexts: subspecialty, billable Current Procedural Terminology codes, and intraoperative consultation. Comparable data were retrieved from 2019 as a historical control.

Results.—

There was a significant reduction in overall accessioned volume (up to 79%) from prepandemic levels during bans on nonurgent procedures when compared with 2020 pre–coronavirus disease 2019 volumes and historical controls. The gastrointestinal and dermatopathology services were most impacted, and breast and combined head and neck/pulmonary services were least impacted. Current Procedural Terminology code 88305, for smaller/biopsy specimens, had a 63% reduction during nonurgent procedure bans. After all bans on procedures were lifted, the overall volume plateaued at 89% of prepandemic levels.

Conclusions.—

A significant decrease in specimen volume was most strongly associated with bans on nonurgent procedures. Although all departmental areas had a decrease in volume, the extent of change varied across subspecialty and specimen types. Even with removal of all bans, service volume did not reach prepandemic levels.
A Healthcare Pilgrim's Progress
Authors: Pitts Peter
Published: December 2020

Progress is both a noun (forward or onward movement toward a destination) and a verb (to move forward or onward in space or time). Innovation is a noun (the action or process of innovating). They aren’t synonyms. When it comes to the future of healthcare, which is more important? Innovation enables change that maintains an ecosystem. Progress changes the ecosystem. Many new biopharmaceuticals and medical devices are innovative. They can improve both quality of care and quality of life, but do not always represent true progress. Perhaps we need a healthcare technology continuum that considers the value of an innovation (a new molecule, a newly identified receptor, gene therapy, etc.) in the context of progress. Rather than “value-based HTA” we should be thinking about “progress-based HTA.  It’s worth repeating that the terms “innovation” and “progress” have separate and distinct meanings. They are, like many generic drugs and biologics, not interchangeable.
The datafication of Public Service Media
Authors: Sørensen Jannick Kirk
Published: December 2020

Historically, public service broadcasting had no quantifiable knowledge about audiences, nor a great interest in knowing them. Today, the competitive logic of the media markets encourage public service media (PSM) organizations to increase datafication. In this paper we examine how a PSM organization interprets the classic public service obligations of creating societal cohesion and diversity in the new world of key performance indicators, business rules and algorithmic parameters.The paper presents a case study of the implementation of a personalization system for the video on demand service of the Danish PSM ‘DR’. Our empirical findings, based on longitudinal in-depth interviewing, indicate a long and difficult process of datafication of PSM, shaped by both the organizational path dependencies of broadcasting production and the expectations of public service broadcasting.
Trust, Disconnection, Minimizing risk and Apathy
Authors: Hartley Jannie Møller , Schwartz Sander Andreas
Published: December 2020

This paper investigates how audiences are coping with digital platforms in their everyday lives. Empirically grounded in focus groups carried out in Denmark with a total of 34 participants of different ages and educational backgrounds, we present the results of an analysis of audiences’ coping tactics in relation to tracking data, collecting data and mining data.

Based on the analysis, we find four overall tactics: coping by absence, coping by trust, coping by minimizing risk and coping by apathy. We argue that these different coping tactics are employed differently depending on the context of the digital routines, the data collected (sensitive vs. non-sensitive data), and the dependence of the platform (private vs. public, national vs. international platforms and apps). These contextual factors are presented in an analytical model—a coping compass—for studying individual users’ coping tactics in their datafied everyday lives.
Datafication and the push for ubiquitous listening in music streaming
Authors: Pedersen Rasmus Rex
Published: December 2020

This article discusses Spotify’s approach to music recommendation as datafication of listening. It discusses the hybrid types of music recommendation that Spotify presents to users. The article explores how datafication is connected to Spotify’s push for the personalization and contextualization of music recommendations based on a combination of the cultural knowledge found in editorial curation and the potential for large-scale personalization found in algorithmic curation. The article draws on the concept of ubiquitous music and other understandings of the affective and functional aspects of music listening as an everyday practice to reflect upon how Spotify’s approach to datafication of listening potentially leads it to prioritize music recommendations that entice users to engage in inattentive and continuous listening. In extension to this, the article seeks to contribute with knowledge about how the datafication of listening potentially shapes listening practices and conceptions of relevance and quality in music recommendation.

The principal aim of this paper is to define Kyrgyz music in Kyrgyzstan ethnomusicology in order to assess whether the traditional Kyrgyz music has an essential impact on the identity of the Kyrgyz people and, if so, how does this impact manifest itself. In order to assess the impacts during research, the author was concerned with the influence of urbanization, globalization on processes related to music, the preference of either traditional or modern music, and how music is perceived in a cross-generational perspective. Furthermore, the thesis focuses on related phenomena including folk music instruments of the Kyrgyz or the Kyrgyz storytellers and musicians, who call themselves aqyns and manaschi. Additionally, the relationship of the national pride and music or the most common forms of music education of children and adolescents and its financial and spatial availability are being explored and scrutinized. The unifying theme of this thesis is music in everyday life of the Kyrgyz. The analytical part of this research mainly draws on the results of the author’s month-long field research from 2018 which took place in various diverse regions of Kyrgyzstan. The research includes a questionnaire, overt participant observation, and semi-structured interviews.

Aren (Arenga pinnata (Wurmb) Merr.) is a high ecological and economical value species of Indonesia. Aren grows spreading in Indonesia including at Meru Betiri National Park in the province of East Java, Indonesia. The community in Meru Betiri National Park uses aren fruit which is called kolang-kaling. Even though aren grows naturally in this area, the community has not maximized its utilization. This study aims to identify the actual and ideal conditions for aren conservation also to analyse the gap between them, and to formulate the conservation actions to realize a sustainable aren conservation in Meru Betiri National Park. The data wascollected by using vegetation analysis and in-depth interviews with all of the aren farmers. Aren regeneration in Meru Betiri National Park is categorized stable and seems to be decreased. The use of aren by the community is limited only from the fruit as kolang-kaling. There is a gap between current and ideal conditions for achieving aren sustainability. To achieve the ideal conditions, conservation actions are needed among aren farmers by utilizing agroforestry systems, increasing the value of aren, intensive coaching for aren farmers, and forming a group of aren farmer

Safety perception is the most important part of people's choice in determining tourist sites. Standing trees that are prone to falling are very dangerous for both visitors and employees. Standing tree with decay wood inside is often the cause of tree failure. Therefore, there is a need for research examining the risk of collection and non-collection trees in Bali Botanical Garden. Tree risk checks were carried out using the Tree Risk Assessment method from the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), which has been modified. The result of this research gives valuable information for the manager to determine tree handling to minimize tree risk.

Forest fire was a persistent concern management in conservation areas of Mount Ciremai National Park (MCNP) and Kuningan Botanical Garden (KBG). Many of the forest fire was sparked by anthropogenic ignitions like careless fire use for extracting forest honey. This study aims to map multi stakeholder roles on fire management in conservation areas. Twenty-seven actors were interviewed to learn who are the fire actors and network. These multi stakeholders included government officials, local businessmen, non-governmental organizations and community members. Study site and data collection were carried out in seven villages around conservation areas from July to September 2019. The relationships between the actors were analyzed with the software Node XL Basic and Gephi 9.0.2 using the Social Network Analysis. Our results identify close relationships and strong connections to all actors of more than half (63.2%) but social or personal approach between all actors were still required. Head of MCNP, Head of KBG and Head of AKAR (Aktivitas Anak Rimba) acted as the important actors. To prevent the area from further fire occurrences, management authorities should establish mutual confidence and make other actors believe that heads of conservation areas are a solid team to prevent conservation areas from burning.

Based on the electromagnetic resonant characteristic of the metallic dendritic cells, we present a metamaterial absorber (MA) composed of periodic array of double dendritic cells. The unit cell of the absorber is composed of two metallic elements on the substrate, a two-level dendritic cell and a three-level dendritic cell are located on each side separately. Designing different impedance matching conditions, the effect of impedance matching on the absorptivity is found. The experimental results show that a maximum absorptivity of 90% can only occur when the MA layer is impedance-matched to free space. At the same time, increasing the number of MA layers can effectively enhance the absorptivity. For 3 layers, the absorptivity above 99% can be obtained, that is to say, a perfect MA is realized in the engineering sense.

Published: December 2020

A photonic crystal waveguide coupled structure can be constructed by placing two photonic crystal waveguides dosely and parallel to each other. A new type of high efficiency heterostructure four-wavelength wavelength division multiplexing is designed according to the theory of coupling and decoupling. The finite-difference time-domain method is used to simulate the efficiency of the device, and the simulated results show that higher transmittance is achieved by adjusting the refractive index of a row of dielectric rods. We further found that adding three pairs of rods in the incident medium can effectively reduce the reflection of the system to realize the efficient transport for four-wavelength and the transmittance can exceed 90%. The present device not only has a high transmission rate, but also its size is only 36 μm×17 μm and may have potential applications in future photonic integrated circuits.

An ultraviolet photon counting imaging system based on charge induction readout was built and its structure, working principle and spatial resolution are reported. The single photon stream can be obtained via atmospheric dispersion, some weakeners, and narrow-band optical filters. A photo-electron produced in microchannel plate is multiplied, forming a charge cloud, which is collected on the Ge film and then detected through capacitive coupling by a PSA located a few millimeters behind the Ge film. The signal data from the anode is acquired and processed with software after being transformed, filtered and shaped by a charge-sensitive preamplifier and a main amplifier in sequence. Finally, a 30-minute counting image is obtained. The resolution of this system can reach 150 micrometers as tested with the resolution board, and the influence of Ge film resistivity and its substrate thickness on the performance of this system is also analyzed. The system is beneficial in good imaging properties and time resolution to bioluminescence, astronomy and nuclear radiant detection.
