Authors: Zhang Peizhen , Chang Fangling , Huo Lili , Yao Zonglu , Luo Juan
Published: January 2025

To explore the effect of corn straw biochar on soil water retention, the characterization of corn straw biochar and its application in semiarid loess were investigated. For the corn straw biochars with different preparation conditions, significant differences were observed in elemental composition, specific surface area, pores distribution, surface functional groups, water absorption, and retention performance. The findings demonstrated that while the pyrolysis temperature (300 °C, 500 °C, and 700 °C) had no significant effect, the water absorption performance of biochar increased steadily as particle size increased (<0.25 mm, 0.25–1 mm, and >1 mm). Further, a greenhouse pot experiment with cucumber seedlings was performed using different proportions of biochar application (0.25%, 0.5%, 1%). Compared with no biochar application, the cucumber seedling fresh weight displayed significant improvement (8.89–95.56%), followed by capillary porosity (3.28–30.04%), total porosity (7.91–21.04%), and field water capacity (1.59–11.96%). Conversely, soil bulk density decreased by 3.50–14.69% after the treatments of biochar. Among all the prepared biochars, CSBC700 (particle size > 1 mm, 1% application rate) exhibited the maximum values in both field water capacity (38.78%) and saturated water content (42.25%). Based on the findings of the correlation analysis, the following characteristics may be used to rank the effect of corn straw biochar on soil water retention: application rate, O/C, pH, Ash%, C%, specific surface area, pore volume, and pore width. Biochar with larger particle sizes and abundant hydrophilic functional groups (hydroxyl and carboxyl groups) can greatly improve soil water retention performance. These results provide new insight and support for the utilization of straw and the improvement of soil water retention in semiarid regions.

Authors: Chung Chuan-Hsiung , You Chen-Feng , Yeh Yi-Ling
Published: January 2025

This study investigates water–rock interactions of Taiwan hot springs by analyzing rare earth elements (REEs) concentrations and strontium (Sr) isotopes. REEs were separated from samples using RE resin, and their concentrations were measured by HR-ICPMS. Strontium was isolated using SrSPEC resin, and the strontium isotopic ratio was determined by MC-ICPMS. The ΣREE in the hot springs ranges from 3.17 ng/L to 29.7 µg/L, with the highest levels found in the Tatun Volcano Group, followed by springs from sedimentary and metamorphic regions. The primary factors controlling REE compositions are lithology and pH. REE patterns of hot springs can be categorized into five types, indicating that the hot springs were affected by various mechanisms. The most distinct hot spring samples are from Tatun Volcano, Ginshan, and Kuantzuling. The 87Sr/86Sr ratios range from 0.70468 to 0.71730, with the most radiogenic samples originating from metamorphic regions, reflecting the nature of the parent rock interacting with the hot spring water. Seawater intrusion and preferential weathering of carbonate also have minor effects on Sr isotope composition. The findings indicate that the types of surrounding rocks and the pH values of the hot springs significantly influence REE patterns and Sr isotope compositions in Taiwan’s hot springs.

Authors: Alhathloul Saleh H. , Alnahit Ali O.
Published: January 2025

Understanding the historical patterns of drought changes is important to effectively manage and mitigate drought. This paper aims to provide a quantitative assessment of the spatiotemporal drought patterns in Saudi Arabia from 1985 to 2022. The study used the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) to examine drought patterns on both monthly and yearly timescales. The findings indicate a significant trend of increasing drought conditions in certain regions of the Kingdom from 1985 to 2022. The average rates of change for SPI-03, SPI-06, and SPI-12 were found to be −0.003 yr−1, −0.0034 yr−1, and −0.0099 yr−1, respectively. Droughts were more frequent and persistent in the northern regions of the country, while the western region experienced severe and intense droughts. There were fewer drought occurrences before 2000, but droughts became more frequent after 2000, with large-scale impacts occurring during 2007–2008 and 2013–2014. These findings have important implications for water management strategies and can help mitigate the effects of drought, as they identify hotspot regions across Saudi Arabia at different timescales. Overall, it is important to implement province-specific efforts to reduce environmental vulnerabilities to droughts.
Current Status of Emerging Contaminant Models and Their Applications Concerning the Aquatic Environment: A Review
Authors: Liu Zhuang , Gan Yonghai , Luo Jun , Luo Xiao , Ding Chengcheng , Cui Yibin
Published: January 2025

Increasing numbers of emerging contaminants (ECs) detected in water environments require a detailed understanding of these chemicals’ fate, distribution, transport, and risk in aquatic ecosystems. Modeling is a useful approach for determining ECs’ characteristics and their behaviors in aquatic environments. This article proposes a systematic taxonomy of EC models and addresses gaps in the comprehensive analysis of EC models and their applications. The reviewed models include conventional water quality models, multimedia fugacity models, and machine learning (ML) models. Conventional water quality models have higher prediction accuracy and spatial resolution; nevertheless, they are limited in functionality and can only be used to predict contaminant concentrations in aquatic environments. Fugacity models are excellent at depicting how contaminants travel between different environmental media, but they cannot be used directly to analyze contaminant variations in different parts of the same environmental media because the fugacity model assumes that contaminant concentrations are constant within the same environmental compartment. Compared to other models, ML models can be applied to more scenarios, such as contaminant identification and risk assessments, rather than being confined to the prediction of contaminant concentrations. In recent years, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence, ML models have surpassed fugacity models and conventional water quality models, becoming one of the newest hotspots in the study of ECs. The primary challenge faced by ML models is that the model outcomes are difficult to interpret and understand, and this influences the practical value of an ML model to some extent.

Published: January 2025

In line with the Italian “Farmers-Nature Project” aimed at reducing conflicts between wild predators and livestock farmers, the spatiotemporal activity of the red fox was monitored in a protected area of central Italy over a one-year period. In parallel, farmers living in the study area were asked to participate in an interview about their perception of the red fox and its predatory activity towards livestock. Analysis of data obtained by camera trapping revealed that a higher number of red fox sightings was recorded in February and March in relation to the search for food, while a lower number was recorded in July when food is more abundant. Red fox primarily moves at night, with a peak of activity between 9 and 10 p.m., staying around an area close to the den. Interviews with farmers revealed a generally positive view of the red fox, as its predation on livestock was rare, suggesting that the fox can find sufficient food resources in the environment.
Data-Driven Strategic Approaches to Road Safety Management: Truth and Lies of Official Statistics
Authors: Petrov Artur I.
Published: January 2025

Approximately 1.25–1.30 million people die annually in road traffic accidents worldwide, and up to 50 million are injured. The UN General Assembly Resolution 74/229 emphasizes the utmost importance of addressing the issue of reducing road traffic accidents. Achieving the ambitious goal of reducing road traffic fatalities and injuries by at least 50% during 2021–2030 is associated with numerous challenges, one of which is ensuring the reliability of official statistics. The accuracy of official data in reflecting the actual situation depends on multiple factors: the quality of the data collection and identification system for road accidents, the responsibility of the officials, and, to a significant extent, the willingness and ability of those in charge to present desired outcomes as reality, thereby distorting the relevant statistics. The issue of inaccurate statistical data and its negative impact on subsequent socio-economic management processes has long been recognized. Different countries address this issue with varying degrees of success. Using data on the characteristics of the road traffic accident rate as an example, the problem of statistical data accuracy in Russia and African countries is considered. A comparison of such countries was chosen to illustrate the real problem of the low credibility of official statistical information available for analysis. Unfortunately, the low quality of statistical information does not allow for drawing accurate conclusions about the actual situation in Russia and African countries, and hence, competently and rationally managing socio-economic processes. This conclusion is based both on the analysis of the results of previous studies and on the original statistical analysis of officially available information.

Published: January 2025

Forecasting using historical time series data has become increasingly important in today’s world. This paper aims to assess the potential for stable positive development within the wholesale and retail trade sector (SK NACE Section G) and the operations of HORTI, Ltd.( Košice, Slovakia), a company within this industry (SK NACE 46.31—wholesale of fruit and vegetables) by predicting three financial indicators: costs, revenues, and earnings before taxes (EBT) (or earnings after taxes (EAT)). We analyze quarterly data from Q1 2009 to Q4 2023 taken from the sector and monthly data from January 2013 to December 2022 for HORTI, Ltd. Through time series analysis, we aim to identify the most suitable model for forecasting the trends in these financial indicators. The study demonstrates that simple legacy forecasting methods, such as exponential smoothing and Box–Jenkins methodology, are sufficient for accurately predicting financial indicators. These models were selected for their simplicity, interpretability, and efficiency in capturing stable trends, and seasonality, especially in sectors with relatively stable financial behavior. The results confirm that traditional Holt–Winters’ and Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) models can provide reliable forecasts without the need for more complex approaches. While advanced methods, such as GARCH or machine learning, could improve predictions in volatile conditions, the traditional models offer robust, interpretable results that support managerial decision-making. The findings can help managers estimate the financial health of the company and assess risks such as bankruptcy or insolvency, while also acknowledging the limitations of these models in predicting large shifts due to external factors or market disruptions.

The prevalence of prediabetes (preDM) in Indonesia is increasing, posing a significant risk for developing Diabetes Mellitus (DM). The American Diabetes Association (ADA) predicts that approximately 70% of individuals with preDM will progress to diabetes. Globally, the number of people with DM is projected to reach 693 million by 2045. In 2019, Bandung City reported 45,430 individuals with DM. Prediabetes management necessitates a comprehensive approach, including lifestyle modifications such as increased physical activity, exercise, and dietary control. This study aimed to investigate the effect of a combined walking and deep breathing relaxation exercise program (JAKARENA) on blood glucose levels in individuals with preDM. This analytical study employed a quasi-experimental design with a Non-equivalent Group Pre-test-Post-test design. The population comprised adults with preDM, with 46 participants selected through purposive sampling and divided into intervention and control groups. Data analysis utilized the Independent T-test. Results demonstrated that the mean baseline blood glucose level in the control group (108.39 mg/dl) was lower than that of the intervention group (111.00 mg/dl). Post-intervention, the control group exhibited a slight increase in blood glucose levels (109.65 mg/dl), whereas the intervention group experienced a significant decrease (102.75 mg/dl). The statistical analysis yielded a p-value of 0.001, indicating a statistically significant effect of JAKARENA on reducing blood glucose levels in individuals with preDM. Conclusion: JAKARENA exercise demonstrates the potential to effectively lower blood glucose levels in individuals with preDM and can be recommended as a valuable community-based intervention to mitigate the progression of preDM to DM.

The purpose of this research is to understand the process and challenges in implementing School Based Management (SBM) in the implementation of the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5). The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection through observation, interviews and documentation. The research subjects were school principals, teachers and students. P5 implementation is carried out through three main stages: planning, implementation and assessment. At the planning stage, the school principal forms a team of profile project facilitators by determining one coordinator, the coordinator guides the project facilitators (all teachers who work at that grade level), identifies school readiness, determines dimensions, time allocation and theme, and designs project modules. In implementation, the teacher begins the activity by introducing the theme, title, objectives and everything related to the project to be implemented. Assessment is carried out by observing student work qualitatively. The research results show that the implementation of School-Based Management contributes to increasing students' understanding of the Pancasila student profile and developing students' character.

Education plays a strategic role in building quality human resources. An effective and efficient education management system is needed in accordance with the principles of Total Quality Management (TQM). This study aims to analyze the integration of the application of Total Quality Management (TQM) principles with the results of Madrasah Self Evaluation (EDM) assessment as a strategy to realize quality education. This research uses a qualitative method that takes data from a literature review of recent scientific articles related to the principles of TQM and the implementation of EDM. The results show that TQM principles-customer satisfaction, comprehensive involvement, and continuous improvement-can be effectively operationalized through data-based EDM applications. Although the integration of TQM principles with data-based technology such as EDM has not been widely explored empirically in madrasahs, data-based management is considered necessary to be the main foundation of TQM implementation in the madrasah environment. As EDM is one of the tools to support TQM in education, this research seeks to explore the relationship in the context of educational evaluation. The results of this study are expected to make a theoretical contribution to education management.

This research explores the meaning, meaning, and essence of the philosophy of science as well as the relevance of epistemology in the dynamics of modern knowledge. Philosophy of science plays a key role in shaping a critical, systematic, and rational scientific thinking framework. In the era of rapid development of science and technology, the philosophy of science serves as the basis for distinguishing legitimate scientific knowledge from pseudoscience. In addition, the philosophy of science helps direct the development of knowledge by emphasizing the importance of valid and reliable scientific methods. Epistemology, as a branch of the philosophy of science that studies theories of knowledge, also plays a key role in assessing the validity and reliability of information, especially in the digital age where misinformation and disinformation are often widespread. With a qualitative approach based on literature study, this study examines the role of philosophy of science in supporting the development of science and technology and the importance of the epistemological framework in keeping scientific integrity. The results of this study show that the philosophy of science not only serves as a theoretical foundation, but as a practical tool to face modern challenges in science, including artificial intelligence and big data.

Public awareness of social and environmental challenges has raised attention to ESG issues around the world.  This study aims to empirically examine the effect of ESG on corporate financial performance with the moderating role of intellectual capital and its components human capital, structural capital, and relational capital. ESG measurement is measured by ESG score, financial performance is measured by ROA and Tobins'Q, and intellectual capital is measured by VAIC. The research was conducted on 424 samples of companies in ASEAN-5 countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Philippines) obtained through puposive sampling technique with the research period 2019-2022. The results prove that ESG is positively related to financial performance on the proxy of ROA. Intellectual capital strengthens the relationship between ESG and corporate financial performance on ROA and Tobins'Q proxies. Structural capital strengthens the relationship between ESG and financial performance on the Tobins'Q proxy. Relational capital strengthens the relationship between ESG and corporate financial performance on the ROA proxy. Meanwhile, human capital weakens the relationship between ESG and corporate financial performance.
