Authors: Kiełbasa Barbara , Pietrzak Stefan , Ulén Barbro , Drangert Jan-Olof , Tonderski Karin
Published: April 2018

The paper presents the results of a scientific project focused on limiting nutrient losses from farms by introducing measures to apply fertilizers in a more sustainable way. It is a case study of selected aspects of farm management, focussing on the issue of sustainable agriculture and their tools. The main aim of the study was to analyse and evaluate farmers’ knowledge of the fertilizing process and its aspects, as well as applying sustainable agricultural activities on farms. The study emphasised the importance of nutrient management, as very important for sustainable farming. Also, the links between farmers’ opinions and their activities were analysed. The important issue concerned measures for sustainable farm management introduced on the farms, as well as measures to limit nutrient leaching into groundwater. Twenty-eight farmers from two regions in Poland were interviewed about their perceptions for the case study. In general, the farmers considered their farm activities to be more sustainable than in the past. They demonstrated an understanding of the general idea of sustainable agriculture. However, many farmers still demonstrated a poor grasp of nutrient flows and nutrient balances on farms. Their knowledge and perception was based on general, rather than specific knowledge gleaned from an academic/vocational course. The farmers demonstrated a realization that there were some new, or low-cost measures that could be introduced to make management more sustainable and pro-environmental, but there was still a need for wider adoption of sustainable agricultural practices.

Published: April 2018

Béchar region is located in the southwest of Algeria, characterized by an arid climate with a Saharan tendency. It is subject to an increasing demand for water like all the great agglomerations due to the economic and demographic development. The groundwater of region is deteriorating because of the economic development, and the rapid growth of population. This article is devoted to the study of hydrochemistry and processes of mineralization of groundwater in this region. The results of physicochemicals analyses shows the same chemical facies of the chloride and sulphate-calcium and magnesium type, with high mineralization from North-East to South-West to the outlet of Béchar–Kénadsa basin. The determination of the mineralization origin and the main major elements were approached by multivariate statistical treatment and geochemical. This method has identified the main chemical phenomena involved in the acquisition of mineralization of water in this aquifer. These phenomena are mainly related to the dissolution of evaporite formations, the infiltration of runoff water and direct ion exchange and mixing. However, the high mineralization anomaly is observed at the centre of Béchar–Kénadsa basin progressively by going to the outlet of this basin.
Possibility of GPS precipitable water vapour for reservoir inflow forecasting
Authors: Uang-Aree Prawit , Kingpaiboon Sununtha
Published: April 2018

We investigated the possibility of using GPS precipitable water vapour (GPS-PWV) for forecasting reservoir inflow. The correlations between monthly GPS-PWV and the inflow of two reservoirs were examined and the relationship tested, using a group method of data handling (GMDH) type neural network algorithm. The daily and monthly reservoir inflows were directly proportional to daily and monthly GPS-PWV trends. Peak reservoir inflow, however, shifted from the peak averages for GPS-PWV. A strong relationship between GPS-PWV and inflow was confirmed by high R2 values, high coefficients of correlation, and acceptable mean absolute errors (MAE) of both the daily and monthly models. The Ubon Ratana reservoir model had a monthly MAE of 54.19·106 m3 and a daily MAE of 5.40·106 m3. By comparison, the Lumpow reservoir model had a monthly MAE of 25.65·106 m3 and a daily MAE of 2.62·106 m3. The models using GPS-PWV as input data responded to extreme inflow better than traditional variables such that reservoir inflow could be predicted using GPS-PWV without using actual inflow and rainfall data. GPS-PWV, thus, represents a helpful tool for regional and national water management. Further research including more reservoirs is needed to confirm this preliminary finding.

Authors: Błażejczyk Krzysztof , Baranowski Jarosław , Błażejczyk Anna
Published: April 2018

The health of individuals and societies depends on different factors including atmospheric conditions which influence humans in direct and indirect ways. The paper presents regional variability of some climate related diseases (CRD) in Poland: salmonellosis intoxications, Lyme boreliosis, skin cancers (morbidity and mortality), influenza, overcooling deaths, as well as respiratory and circulatory mortality. The research consisted of two stages: 1) statistical modelling basing on past data and 2) projections of CRD for three SRES scenarios of climate change (A1B, A2, B1) to the year 2100. Several simple and multiply regression models were found for the relationships between climate variables and CRD. The models were applied to project future levels of CRD. At the end of 21st century we must expect increase in: circulatory mortality, Lyme boreliosis infections and skin cancer morbidity and mortality. There is also projected decrease in: respiratory mortality, overcooling deaths and influenza infections.
Level of Academic and Didactic Competencies Among Students as a Measure to Evaluate Geographical Education and Preparation of Students for the Demands of the Modern Labour Market
Authors: Cichoń Małgorzata , Piotrowska Iwona
Published: April 2018

Young people, regardless of their social environment, place of residence or work, are looking for values and key competencies that enable achieving goals in life. Therefore, an appropriate education system is important, which in the conditions of changing reality will meet these requirements effectively. The contemporary employer is interested in four groups of key competencies, such as intellectual, professional, personal and interpersonal. Geography is a field with great potential for the development of various competencies. In this context, questions about adjusting geographical education to the expectations of employers are justified. Therefore, the aim of the study is to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the current development of competencies and qualifications at the geography speciality of the Faculty of Geographical and Geological Sciences, Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, Poland. The reference points included a report on research carried out among 200 employers in 2012, as well as surveys among students graduating from master‘s studies on the assessment of the level of their competencies and qualifications. It was determined that the strength of the current geographical education at the faculty is to prepare mainly specialists with broad general and professional knowledge, and high self-esteem in terms of cooperation in the group and communication. The area of development for the geographical education are intellectual competencies, above all independent thinking and prioritising. The last year geography students fall out the most in terms of personal competencies. The authors suggest building students‘ awareness because, as the above results show, they are not fully aware of what expectations they may face in the labour market. It is worth modifying the study program so as to put more emphasis on soft competencies and support the development of various forms of extra activities of students. Attention was also paid to the importance of didactic competencies, which on the one hand raise the self-esteem of students, and on the other, increase the chance of finding a good job. An interesting aspect of the research is the wide spectrum of professions in which students work. This reflects their diverse skills, including spatial thinking. Combined with increasing attention paid to the issues related to the natural environment and sustainable development, graduates of geography have a strong position to enter the current labour market. The advantage of geographers is the use of modern technologies. Unfortunately, however, the results of the research presented above, both among Polish students and internationally, indicate insufficient skills in the use of modern technologies by students of geography.

O reflorestamento é um processo de recuperação de áreas degradadas pela força da natureza ou por ação humana. As áreas de reflorestamento são de grande importância para a recuperação das matas nativas e a identificação das espécies existentes no local representa uma importante etapa no conhecimento do ecossistema para estudos futuros. Para identificar as espécies que existem em um determinado local é feito o levantamento florí­stico que consiste em realizar uma lista completa das espécies de vegetais existentes em uma determinada área. Com base nessa problemática, esse trabalho objetivou desenvolver um levantamento das espécies arbóreas existentes da área de Reflorestamento do Campus II da FUNEC - Santa Fé do Sul/SP, classificando-as de acordo com o papel que desempenham na sucessão ecológica como: pioneiras, secundárias e clímax. Para realização deste trabalho foram realizadas as identificações do extrato arbustivo das espécies encontradas no Campus, onde se identificou 575 espécies pertencentes a 27 famí­lias. A partir das espécies identificadas pode-se verificar que as famí­lias FABACEAE, ANACARDIACEAE, BIGNONACEAE e VERBENACEAE apresentam 65,4%, do total, sendo as mais representativas, e os outros 34,6% estão divididos em 22 famí­lias, além da presença de algumas espécies exóticas. Foram identificados na sucessão ecológica, 53% de pioneiras, 44% de secundárias, 2% de clí­max e 1% não classificadas. Dessa maneira os resultados mostram que na recomposição florestal no Campus II não foram mantidos a sucessão ecológica, pois se encontram muitas plantas secundárias.
Penampilan Beberapa Galur Kedelai Pada Cekaman Kekeringan
Authors: Suyamto FNU
Published: April 2018

Kekeringan merupakan faktor pembatas yang menyebabkan penurunan produktivitas hingga 55%. Salah satu penyebab rendahnya produksi kedelai di Indonesia adalah penanaman kedelai dilakukan di lahan yang ketersediaan airnya terbatas. Seleksi yang digunakan untuk mendapatkan varietas kedelai yang tahan terhadap kekeringan serta memiliki produksi yang tinggi yaitu dengan karakterisasi hasil biji dan indeks toleransi cekaman (ITC). Sebanyak 30 galur kedelai dievaluasi di dua lingkungan tumbuh yaitu diberi perlakuan pengairan optimal dengan 6 kali pengairan setiap 15 hari sekali dan pengairan 3 kali setiap 15 hari sekali (cekaman kekeringan). Penelitian lapang menggunakan rancangan petak terpisah diulang dua kali, dengan jarak tanam 40 cm x 15 cm dengan dua tanaman per-rumpun. Tiap galur ditanam 4 baris dengan panjang baris 4,5 m. Tanaman di pupuk dengan pupuk dasar sebanyak 50 kg Urea, 100 kg SP.36 dan 75 kg KCl per hektar yang diberikan pada saat tanam. Penelitian dilaksanakan di KP. Genteng dan KP. Muneng pada bulan Juli 2015. Hasil analisis menunjukkan perbedaan yang nyata antar lokasi (Genteng dan Muneng), dimana hasil kedelai di Genteng lebih baik dari pada di Muneng. Demikian juga dengan lingkungan tumbuh menunjukkan perbedaan yang nyata dimana cekaman kekeringan selama fase pengisian polong/biji pada kedelai dapat menurunkan hasil sebesar 26% dibanding dengan hasil yang mendapat pengairan optimal. Tidak ada pengaruh interaksi antara lokasi dan perlakuan pengairan terhadap hasil. Terdapat 6 galur yang memiliki potensi hasil dan nilai indeks toleransi cekaman lebih besar dari pada varietas Wilis yaitu KP/2805-1, DV/2984-2, DV/2984-3, KP/3072-2, MLG-2805 dan varietas Tidar dengan potensi hasil berturut-turut 1.097, 1.074, 1.137, 1.107, 1.176 dan 1.111 t/ha sedangkan varietas Wilis 1.053 t/ha. Tiga diantaranya yaitu KP/2805-1, DV/2984-3 dan KP/3072-2 memiliki ukuran biji lebih besar dan umur berbunga lebih panjang dibanding Wilis, Tidar dan MLG-2805.

Published: April 2018

Pengembangan budidaya kentang perlu dilakukan untuk meningkatkan hasil produksi nasional, salah satu langkahnya yaitu dengan mengembangkan kentang di dataran medium 300 sampai 700 m dpl. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan teknologi budidaya kentang pada dataran medium melalui pengaplikasian pupuk kieserite (Mg) dan naungan. Pelaksanaan penelitian di mulai dari bulan Agustus 2016 sampai dengan bulan Desember 2016. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan acak kelompok (RAK) faktorial yang terdiri dari dua faktor. Faktor pertama yaitu pupuk kieserite terdiri dari lima taraf : 0 kg/ha, 50 kg/ha, 100 kg/ha, 150 kg/ha, dan 200 kg/ha. Faktor kedua yaitu naungan dengan kerapatan 60% dan tanpa naungan. Hasil analisis data menunjukkan penggunaan naungan dengan kerapatan 60% berpengaruh sangat nyata pada tinggi tanaman umur 14 HST, 28 HST, dan 42 HST, luas daun 42 HST, serta berpengaruh sangat nyata terhadap jumlah umbi persampel, berat umbi persampel dan tidak berpengaruh nyata pada jumlah cabang tanaman. Perlakuan pupuk kieserite (Mg) memberikan pengaruh nyata pada jumlah cabang tanaman umur 42 HST, tetapi tidak berpengaruh terhadap tinggi tanaman umur 14 HST, 28 HST, dan 42 HST, luas daun 42 HST, jumlah umbi persampel, berat umbi persampel. Interaksi antara naungan dan pupuk kieserite (Mg) tidak  memberikan pengaruh nyata pada tinggi tanaman, luas daun, jumlah cabang, jumlah umbi, dan berat umbi, hal ini diduga karena kurang sesuainya dosis dan intensitas pemberian pupuk kieserite (Mg) yang di aplikasikan.

Effective multiplication factor and fuel temperature coefficient calculations of PWR assembly under different temperatures
Authors: AKYÜREK Tayfun
Published: April 2018

This paper presents effective multiplication factor (keff)

with different burnable absorbers and weight percentages at different

temperatures as well as doppler coefficient results and number density

calculations for Westinghouse type pressurized water reactor (PWR) Assembly.

Integral fuel burnable absorber rods coated with ZrB2 and

Gadolinia-Uranium (UO2-Gd2O3) integral

burnable absorbers were considered to calculate reactor parameters (keff

and doppler coefficient). The results compared with base fuel which

does not contain burnable absorber at different temperatures. The results show

that reactivity was decreased with increased temperature and doppler

coefficients increased with temperatures but remained negative at all

temperatures. At 1500 K, the effective multiplication factor for base fuel was

found to be 1.46985 while the effective multiplication factors for 2% with Gd2O3,

8% with Gd2O3, and IFBA rods were 1.38976,  1.37574, and 1.30337 respectively.

Authors: TORCU KOÇ Hatice , ERDOĞAN Zeliha
Published: April 2018

Some biological aspects
of 91 lesser spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula [L.] were examined. The
samples were caught with trawl hauls from Bandırma Bay in the years of
2013-2014. Total lenghts of fishes ranged from 18.0-47.4 cm while their weights
ranged from 28.78-583.78 g. It was observed that lenght-weight increased
allometrically. As the overall sex ratio [male and female ] was 1.12:1, it was
not found statistically significant [p>0.05]. The mature females were
determined to spawn successively at least two eggs each batch. HSI values were
estimated not to have significant differences between males and females
[P>0.05].

A interação entre homens e animais tem consequências para a saúde pública, como o aumento dos casos de raiva, uma zoonose letal. Neste estudo, foram analisadas 1047 fichas do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN). Os dados foram representativos do tratamento preventivo anti-raiva humano no município de Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre, de 2007 a 2015. O maior número de casos foi registrado em 2013 (17,95%) e a maior incidência de ataques ocorreu nas regiões urbanas (86,1%). As feridas resultantes de mordida de cão corresponderam a 98,66% dos ataques. Os animais foram classificados como suspeitos da raiva em 65,42% dos casos, no entanto, apenas 1% foram clinicamente diagnosticados como positivos. Apenas 4% das vítimas humanas foram submetidas a exame para pós-exposição de titulação. Os resultados indicam que os programas de Saúde Pública devem considerar como prioritários os ataques de cães na área urbana na cidade de Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre.
Significant Knowledge Gaps Between Clinical Practice and Research on Femoroacetabular Impingement: Are We on the Same Path?
Authors: Kemp Joanne L. , Risberg May Arna
Published: April 2018

Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is the abnormal osseous contact between the femur (cam impingement) and/or acetabular rim (pincer impingement) during end-range hip motions. This special issue on FAI aims at closing some of the gaps between clinical practice and research findings, important for all health professions treating patients with hip pain. This special issue will explore several aspects of FAI syndrome. Specifically, it will provide clinicians with a greater understanding of the etiology and prevalence of hip morphology seen in FAI syndrome, and its relationship with hip range of motion, muscle strength, and hip osteoarthritis (OA).

Published: April 2018

A 23-year-old woman was referred to physical therapy by her primary care physician for a 4-week history of right groin pain that had progressively worsened while training for a half-marathon. Before the physical therapy referral, the primary care physician ordered radiography of the right hip, which was unremarkable for fracture. Following examination, the physical therapist suspected osseous or soft tissue abnormality and requested that the primary care physician order magnetic resonance imaging without contrast, which revealed a femoral neck stress fracture.

Published: April 2018

Study Design

Clinical measurement.

Background

The Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS) was developed as a patient-reported outcome measure for young, active individuals with hip and groin pain.

Objectives

To cross-culturally adapt and validate a Dutch version of the HAGOS.

Methods

Adaptation and validation were performed according to existing guidelines and the COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments checklist. Physically active (Tegner activity score of greater than 2) adults between 18 and 50 years of age with hip and groin pain (numeric pain score of 1 or greater) were included in the study. Reliability (test-retest, internal consistency) was assessed in clinically stable patients. Construct validity was determined by calculating Spearman correlations between the scores on the HAGOS and scores on the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score and European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions subscales. Fifteen hypotheses were defined a priori. Interpretability was considered good when floor and ceiling effects were present in less than 15% of individuals.

Results

A Dutch version of the HAGOS was created. Its reliability was tested in 129 individuals and its validity in 194 participants. Test-retest reliability was good (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.83−0.87). Internal consistency was good (Cronbach α = .81-.92). Construct validity was considered good: 13 of 15 (87%) hypotheses were confirmed. Floor effects (21%) were present for the physical activity subscale.

Conclusion

The Dutch HAGOS is a reliable and valid patient-reported outcome measure and performs similarly to the original version in its target population. It can be used in clinical as well as research settings. Presence of floor effects should be considered for the physical activity subscale.

The Physiotherapy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Rehabilitation STudy (physioFIRST): A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Kemp Joanne L. , Coburn Sally L. , Jones Denise M. , Crossley Kay M.
Published: April 2018

Study Design

A pilot double-blind randomized controlled trial (RCT).

Background

The effectiveness of physical therapy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is unknown.

Objectives

To determine the feasibility of an RCT investigating the effectiveness of a physical therapy intervention for FAIS.

Methods

Participants were 17 women and 7 men (mean ± SD age, 37 ± 8 years; body mass index, 25.4 ± 3.4 kg/m2) with FAIS who received physical therapy interventions provided over 12 weeks. The FAIS-specific physical therapy group received personalized progressive strengthening and functional retraining. The control group received standardized stretching exercises. In addition, both groups received manual therapy, progressive physical activity, and education. The primary outcome was feasibility, including integrity of the protocol, recruitment and retention, outcome measures, randomization procedure, and sample-size estimate. Secondary outcomes included hip pain and function (international Hip Outcome Tool-33 [iHOT-33]) and hip muscle strength. Poststudy interviews were conducted to determine potential improvements for future studies.

Results

Twenty-four (100%) patients with known eligibility agreed to participate. Four patients (17%) were lost to follow-up. All participants and the tester remained blinded, and the control intervention was acceptable to participants. The between-group mean differences in change scores were 16 (95% confidence interval [CI]: −9, 38) for the iHOT-33 and 0.24 (95% CI: 0.02, 0.47) Nm/kg for hip adduction strength, favoring the FAIS-specific physical therapy group. Using an effect size of 0.61, between-group improvements for the iHOT-33 suggest that 144 participants are required for a full-scale RCT.

Conclusion

A full-scale RCT of physical therapy for FAIS is feasible. A FAIS-specific physical therapy program has the potential for a moderate to large positive effect on hip pain, function, and hip adductor strength.

Published: April 2018

Synopsis

The number of hip arthroscopies for the management of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and other hip intra-articular conditions has grown exponentially in the last decade. Postoperative rehabilitation is part of the treatment algorithm, although there is a lack of high-quality studies on the efficacy of both surgery and postoperative rehabilitation programs. It is known that impairments can be present up to 2 years after hip arthroscopy, with individuals exhibiting reduced function and quality of life when compared to those of similar age, highlighting a need to improve postoperative care. Postoperative rehabilitation programs aim to improve hip function; however, the description of interventions as well as criteria for progression are lacking in the literature. The aim of this clinical commentary was to present a targeted clinical rehabilitation approach for individuals undergoing hip arthroscopy.
