Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging tickborne infectious disease in China, Korea, and Japan caused by the SFTS virus (SFTSV). SFTS has a high mortality rate due to multiorgan failure. Recently, there are several reports on SFTS patients with mycosis. Here, we report a middle-aged Japanese SFTS patient with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) revealed by an autopsy. A 61-year-old man with hypertension working in forestry was bitten by a tick and developed fever, diarrhea, and anorexia in 2 days. On day 4, consciousness disorder was appearing, and the patient was transferred to the University of Miyazaki Hospital. A blood test showed leukocytopenia, thrombocytopenia, as well as elevated levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, and creatine kinase. The SFTSV gene was detected in serum using a reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. On day 5, respiratory failure appeared and progressed rapidly, and on day 7, the patient died. An autopsy was performed that revealed hemophagocytosis in the bone marrow and bleeding of several organs. IPA was observed in lung specimens. SFTSV infection may be a risk factor for developing IPA. Early diagnosis and treatment of IPA may be important in patients with SFTS.

Published: June 2021

Isolation and characterization of circular replicase-encoding single-stranded (ss) DNA from animal, plant and environmental samples are rapidly evolving in virology. We detected 21 circular DNA elements, including one genomoviral sequence, in individual milk samples from domesticated Asian water buffaloes (Bubalus arnee f. bubalis). Most of the obtained genomes are related to Sphinx 1.76 and Sphinx 2.36 sequences and share a high degree of similarity to recently published circular DNAs—named BMMF (bovine meat and milk factors)—that have been isolated from commercial milk, as well as from bovine serum. Characteristic features such as rep genes, tandem repeats and inverted repeats were detected. These BMMF have recently been found to be present in taurine-type dairy cattle breeds descending from the aurochs (Bos primigenius). Importantly, the occurrence of BMMF has been linked to the higher incidence of colorectal and breast cancer in North America and Western Europe compared with Asia. This is the first report of circular ssDNA detected in milk from the domesticated form of the wild Asian water buffalo (B. arnee) belonging to the subfamily Bovinae. This novelty should be taken into account in view of the above-mentioned cancer hypothesis.

Published: June 2021

Bacteriophages are promising tools for the detection of fecal pollution in different environments, and particularly for viral pathogen risk assessment. Having similar morphological and biological characteristics, bacteriophages mimic the fate and transport of enteric viruses. Enteric bacteriophages, especially phages infecting Escherichia coli (coliphages), have been proposed as alternatives or complements to fecal indicator bacteria. Here, we provide a general overview of the potential use of enteric bacteriophages as fecal and viral indicators in different environments, as well as the available methods for their detection and enumeration, and the regulations for their application.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the psychological factors of health perception, mistrust, anxiety, fear, and indecision of Italians vaccinated against COVID-19, and conduct an analysis of the relationships between these factors and other variables: sex, vaccine priority ministerial categories, and the type and dose of vaccine. The participants included 1564 subjects who joined the vaccination campaign at the COVID-19 Vaccination Center in Salerno, Italy. A survey was conducted in the reference period March–April 2021 using a brief anamnestic questionnaire. In addition, the following standardized scales were used: the State–Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-Y) and the Short Form Health Survey (SF-12). The results showed that, in terms of the type of vaccine received, the interviewees felt more confident in having received the Comirnaty (Pfizer-BioNTech, 23.5%) and Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca, 18.6%) vaccines—feeling less tense (2.1%; Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca) = 3.2%), frightened (1%; Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca) = 1.4%), not at all nervous (61.1%; Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca), 43.6%), and not at all/undecided (67.9%; Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca), 58.6%). Regarding the mood and psychological states considered at the different vaccine administration times, other important differences emerged as the interviewees reported higher levels of tension, nervousness, and fear during the first phase of vaccine administration. Specifically, 40.7% (second dose, 32.7%) felt somewhat tense at the first dose, 26.4% felt frightened (second dose, 21.8%), and 33.8% felt nervous (second dose, 26.8%). The perceived state of health also increased at the end of the vaccination cycle, as, at the second dose, 15.4% of the sample reported an evaluation of “excellent” (first dose, 12.4%).

Published: June 2021

Coastal zones across the world are often listed as protected areas as a result of their sensitive ecosystems and frequent social uses. One category of protected area that allows for protection and use is a geopark. A geopark combines geological heritage conservation with sustainable development and must include meaningful geological characteristics, and scientific content. Geoparks can stimulate the coastal economy through the appreciation of the heritage and development of sustainable tourism, along with environmental protection and interpretation. There are geoparks on islands and coastal areas in many continents. Fernando de Noronha archipelago (Brazil), has relevant geodiversity and the potential to join the Global Geoparks Network (GGN). For the creation of a geopark, it is important to acknowledge its geological heritage and relevance. This has already been done in Fernando de Noronha by the Geological Service of Brazil (CPRM), through the identification of the geosites in the island. The goal of this case study is to present actions that have been carried out and that may help on the report development for the proposed Geopark, as well as present the benefits that a geopark can bring to a coastal area. Opportunities for improving the economy with geoproducts and geofood are presented.

Published: June 2021

Due to the importance of wall shear stress effect and dust fluid in daily life fluid problems. This paper aims to discover the influence of wall shear stress on dust fluids of fluctuating flow. The flow is considered between two parallel plates that are non-conducting. Due to the transformation of heat, the fluid flow is generated. We consider every dust particle having spherical uniformly disperse in the base fluid. The perturb solution is obtained by applying the Poincare-Lighthill perturbation technique (PLPT). The fluid velocity and shear stress are discussed for the different parameters like Grashof number, magnetic parameter, radiation parameter, and dusty fluid parameter. Graphical results for fluid and dust particles are plotted through Mathcad-15. The behavior of base fluid and dusty fluid is matching for different embedded parameters.
Air–Water Properties in Rectangular Free-Falling Jets

Published: June 2021

This study analyzes the air–water flow properties in overflow nappe jets. Data were measured in several cross-sections of rectangular free-falling jets downstream of a sharp-crested weir, with a maximum fall distance of 2.0 m. The flow properties were obtained using a conductivity phase-detection probe. Furthermore, a back-flushing Pitot-Prandtl probe was used in order to obtain the velocity profiles. Five specific flows rates were analyzed, from 0.024 to 0.096 m3/s/m. The measurements of the air–water flow allowed us to characterize the increment of the air entrainment during the fall, affecting the flow characteristic distributions, reducing the non-aerated water inner core, and increasing the lateral spread, thereby leading to changes in the jet thickness. The results showed slight differences between the upper and lower nappe trajectories. The experimental data of the jet thickness related to a local void fraction of 50% seemed to be similar to the jet thickness due only to gravitational effects until the break-up length was reached. The amount of energy tended to remain constant until the falling distance was over 15 times greater than the total energy head over the weir crest, a distance at which the entrained air affected the entire cross-section, and the non-aerated core tended to disappear. The new experiments related with air–water properties in free-falling jets allow us to improve the current knowledge of turbulent rectangular jets.

Published: June 2021

Rising water scarcity in agriculture has been a major concern worldwide. As resource managers seek to address this issue, Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) has become a widely accepted sustainability paradigm. The purpose of this study is to evaluate restoration alternatives of irrigation tanks by applying multi-criteria and probabilistic benefit–cost analysis for a rural watershed in India. We incorporate the principles of local-IWRM, namely, hydrological balance, efficiency, equity, stakeholders’ involvement, and uncertainty. We use the mixed-method approach of data collection, including remotely sensed hydro-ecological data, walk-through field observations, focus groups, and household surveys. The study region produces a large percent of runoff water (i.e., about 67% of the total precipitation) which can be partially captured to sustain irrigation tanks. The majority of the tanks in the study area do possess moderate to high irrigation potential yet remain in poor conditions. A proposed lift irrigation scheme with a 75% or more increase in water availability could return from ₹ 1.23 to ₹ 1.73 on every Indian rupee (₹) invested, in addition to other socio-ecological benefits. The increase in water availability could lead to future crop area expansion, which comes with a high price tag. Therefore, using additional water on the existing crop area can be just as economically viable as water-induced crop expansion. A coordinated effort on the part of local agencies and water users is necessary for efficient and equitable use of incremental water that comes from any restoration efforts in the study area or elsewhere.
Economic Contribution Analysis of National Estuarine Research Reserves
Authors: Stokes-Cawley Owen , Stroud Hannah , Lyons Douglas , Wiley Peter , Goodhue Charles
Published: June 2021

Increased attention to the value of protected natural areas has led to the proliferation of ecosystem service valuations for coastal habitats. However, these studies do not provide a full representation of the economic value of these habitats. Protected coastal environments, such as the National Estuarine Research Reserve System (NERRS), add jobs and revenue to their local communities. Institutions such as NERRS provide economic contributions that extend beyond their operational spending and jobs they provide. Spending by reserves and their partners ripples throughout the economy. We performed an economic contribution analysis at four pilot sites using input-output modeling through IMPLAN. Sites contributed millions in revenue and tens to hundreds of jobs in their respective regions. Each of the four sites had a different category of spending that was the largest contributor of revenue and jobs, which is likely due to the community context and location of the reserves. Understanding these contributions is helpful in validating funding for NERRS. Communicating these contributions along with ecosystem service values may increase support from community members who otherwise do not use or rely on NERRS as much as traditional reserve supporters.
Seasonal Variability of Snow Density in the Spanish Pyrenees

Published: June 2021

Spanish latitudes and meteorological conditions cause the snow phenomena to mainly take place in mountainous areas, playing a key role in water resource management, with the Pyrenees as one of the most important and best monitored areas. Based on the most significant dataset of snow density (SDEN) in the Spanish Pyrenees for on-site manual samples and automatic measurements, in this study, single and multiple linear regression models are evaluated that relate SDEN with intra-annual time dependence and other drivers such as the seasonal accumulated precipitation, 7-day average temperatures, snow depth (SD) and elevation. The seasonal accumulated precipitation presented a more dominant influence than daily precipitation, usually being the second most dominant SDEN driver, followed by temperature. Average temperatures showed the best fitting to SDEN. The results showed similar densification rates ranging widely from 0.7 × 103 kg/L/day to 2 × 103 kg/L/day without showing a spatial pattern. The densification rate for the set of manual samples was set to 1.2 kg/L/day, very similar to the set of automatic measurements (1.3 kg/L/day). The results increase knowledge on SDEN in the Pyrenees. The SDEN regression models that are given in this work may allow us, in the future, to estimate SDEN, and consequently Snow Water Equivalent (SWE), using an economical and extensive SD and meteorological network, although the high spatial variability that has been found must be regarded. Estimating a relationship between SDEN and several climate drivers enables us to take into account the impact of climate variability on SDEN.

Published: June 2021

The study was aimed at the determination of the dynamics of spatial distribution of moisture front, caused by pointwise application of water under conditions of high pressure. This was effected through a series of simulations of water injection to a porous material with particle size distribution corresponding to that of sand. The study was composed of six independent experimental series in which the sand monolith was supplied with water doses of 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250, and 1500 cm3 under pressure (4 bar). At the same time, measurements of volumetric moisture were conducted with the use of TDR sensors, which were positioned within the soil in a regular grid pattern. It was demonstrated that the primary cause of water movement at the moment of injection is the pressure potential gradient of water molecules. The spatial reach of moisture change in relation to the injected water dose was also defined. It was also observed that in the course of water injection there is a risk of disturbing the structure of the porous material. The correctness of the adopted method was verified through the calculation of the water balance.

Published: June 2021

This research aims to assess the hydrogeochemical evolution of the groundwater in Oued souf valley for drinking and irrigation purposes. To achieve this, 49 groundwater samples from the complex terminal were examined and treated concurrently with multivariate statistical methods, geostatistical modeling and the WQI (water quality index). Focusing on the physico-chemical parameters, Q mode clustering analysis detected four major water groups, where the mineralization augmented from group 1 to group 4. The hydro-chemical type was the same, Ca-Mg-Cl-SO4 for all the groups. Calcite, dolomite, anhydrite, and gypsum would be the dominant reactions with the undersaturation of evaporates minerals, based on geochemical modeling, while the carbonate minerals are precipitating. Geostatistical analysis using ordinary Kriging demonstrated the exponential semi-variogram model fitted for EC (electrical conductivity), Ca2+ (calcium), Mg2+ (magnesium), K+ (potassium), HCO3− (bicarbonate), Cl− (chloride), and SO42− (sulfate). At the same time, the rational quadratic model was the best-fitted semi-variogram model for Na+ (sodium) and NO3− (nitrate). EC, SO42−, and NO3− have a strong spatial structure, while Ca2+, Na+, K+, and HCO3− have a moderate spatial structure. Moreover, there was a weak spatial structure for Mg2+ and Cl−. The WQI shows that CT (complex terminal groundwater aquifers) are not suitable for drinking and their quality for irrigation fluctuates from excellent to moderate quality.

Published: June 2021

The lack of certain nutrients in the diets negatively affects the growth and development of young animals, which ultimately leads to a decrease in the productivity of animals, leads to unreasonably high expenditures of feed for the production of livestock products and to an increase in its prime-cost. The purpose of the research was to study the effect of the drug Multivit+Minerals on the milk productivity of cows during the period of increasing the milk yield. The research was carried out on the basis of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise Breeding Farm “Topolya” in the Tyumen region in the winter-stall period. Use of the drug Multivit+Minerals had a positive influence on the quantity and quality of milk. During the period of increasing the milk yield an average of 2,720 kg of milk with a fat content of 3,78 % and protein content of 3,19 % has been obtained from the cows of the experimental group. Enriching the body with vitamins and minerals has allowed increasing milk productivity by 196 kg or 7,8 % (P < 0,05), and improving the quality of milk in terms of fat content by 0,05 abs.% and protein by 0,11 abs.% (P < 0,05). The increase in fat and protein milk content led to the increase in the yield of milk fat by 8,66 kg and protein by 9,03 kg (P < 0,01), while reducing the prime-cost of milk production by 6,0 %. It has been recommended in order to provide animals with vitamins and mineral elements to use the drug Multivit+Minerals in a dose of 20 ml/head.

Published: June 2021

Vegetable feed additive “Biostrong 510” based on essential oils and plant substances contains active substances exclusively of vegetable origin, which have a more intense eff ect on the animal’s body. The mechanism of action is based on the synergism of several plant substances containing active substances that, when combined, aff ect a certain category of animals. The additive contains essential oils, herbal plants, and seasonings such as anise oil, thyme oil, gentian powder, chili paprika powder, and quillaya extract. The purpose of the research was to determine the feasibility and eff ectiveness of fortifi cation of compound feed with the vegetable feed additive based on essential oils and vegetable substances to increase meat productivity and meat quality. In order to study the eff ectiveness of feeding vegetable feed additive in compound feed for broiler chickens under the conditions of LLC “Akashevskaya poultry Farm” in the Republic of Mari El, a scientifi c and economic experiment has been carried out. Experiments have been performed on broiler chickens of the cross Cobb-500 from the daily to 40-day age of the birds. The eff ect of the vegetable feed additive “Biostrong 510” based on essential oils and vegetable substances on meat productivity and nutritional value of broiler chicken meat has been studied in the paper. The level of feeding and the quality of the feed consumed by poultry has a big infl uence on meat productivity. The use of our selected vegetable feed additive based on essential oils and vegetable substances increase the slaughter weight by 9,0–13,7 %, the slaughter yield by 2–5 %, the amount of muscle tissue and meat qualities of carcasses. The best results have been obtained by including the vegetable feed additive based on essential oils and plant substances in the amount of 0,015 % of the dry substance of the feed.

One of the main categories of wastewater at the enterprises of the agro-industrial complex is oil-containing effl uents, which are persistent emulsions of the “oil in water” type, the main component of which is spent lubricating and cooling technical means and compositions of spent detergents. The purpose of the research was to modernize the technology of treatment of emulsion wastewater in agro-industrial complexes. The problem of protection of water reservoirs from pollution by oil-containing wastewater from the territory of enterprises of the agro-industrial complex has been considered. The technology of wastewater treatment using multicomponent sorbents has been developed. The scheme of the general technological solution of the basic hardware design, based on the possible processing methods, is as follows: the spent oil-emulsifying effl uents accumulate in the averaging tank, they sent to the reagent decomposition unit; a suspension of the working concentration is prepared from the dry commercial reagent and is fed by metering pumps to the reagent decomposition unit; preparing a solution of a fl occulating agent working concentration of dry commercial reagent and pumped-dispensers in the node decomposition reagent; in the unit of the reagent decomposition the interaction with sorption-fl occulation agents, and decomposition of the emulsion into clarifi ed water and sludge; from the unit of chemical decomposition maslomolochny wastewater generated sludge and the clarifi ed water is fed into the sump where they are sedimentation separation. Thus, the use of multicomponent sorbents in the technology of treatment of emulsion wastewater can solve a serious problem of the negative impact of ecotoxicants of wastewater on the environment.

Published: June 2021

Enhancement of durability and reduction of maintenance cost of concrete, with the implementation of various approaches, has always been a matter of concern to researchers. The integration of pozzolans as a substitute for cement into the concrete is one of the most desirable technique. Silica fume (SF) and colloidal nanosilica (CS) have received a great deal of interest from researchers with their significant performance in improving the durability of concrete. The synergistic role of the micro and nano-silica particles in improving the main characteristics of cemented materials needs to be investigated. This work aims to examine the utility of partial substitution of cement by SF and CS in binary and ternary blends in the improvement of the durability characteristics linked to resistance for electrochemical corrosion using electrical resistivity and half-cell potential analysis and chloride penetration trough rapid chloride penetration test. Furthermore, the effects of this silica mixture on the compressive strength of concrete under normal and aggressive environment have also been investigated. Based on the maximum compression strength of the concrete, the optimal cement substituent ratios have been obtained as 12% SF and 1.5% CS for binary blends. The optimal CS and SF combination mixing ratios has been obtained as 1.0% and 12% respectively for ternary blends. The ternary blends with substitution of cement by optimal percentage of CS and SF exhibited decreased rate for electrochemical corrosion. The strength and durability studies were found in consistence with the microstructural analysis signifying the beneficiary role of CS and SF in upgrading the performance of concrete.
Isolation screening and molecular characterization of zinc solubilizing bacteria and their effect on the growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum)
Authors: Nandal Vandana , Solanki Manu
Published: June 2021

Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a major cereal crop grown worldwide. Most of the world population depends on wheat for their nutrient requirement. Zinc (Zn) is one of the most crucial elements required for the development of wheat plant. It is one of the micronutrients required in many biochemical cycles. It has been found that the concentration of Zn is below the required level in the soil and hence it remains deficient in the crops. To ameliorate the deficit, chemical fertilizers are added in the soil, where as biofertilizers are preferred over chemicals in sustainable agriculture. The paper describes the isolation, screening and molecular characterization of the zinc solubilizing bacteria (ZSB) to improve plant growth. A total of 100 soil samples were collected from the rhizospheric soil of wheat plants. ZSB were isolated by dilution plating on Bunt and Rovira media. The 50 isolates were selected and screened for their Zn solubilization. The zinc tolerance of all the isolates varied from 0.5% to 2% of insoluble Zn. Based on the Zn tolerance ability, 15 bacterial isolates were screened for Phosphate solubilization and further analyzed for the synthesis of IAA, NH3, siderophore production and chitinase activity. The three isolates were selected on the basis of the plant growth promoting characteristics for molecular characterization and were found to be homologous to Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus tropicus. This study documented the establishment and survival of ZSB in the wheat rhizosphere and enhanced plant productivity, thus indicating the potential of isolates as commercial biofertilizers.

Visibility Estimation via Deep Label Distribution Learning
Authors: Song Mofei , Xu Han , Liu Xiao Fan , Li Qian
Published: June 2021

This paper proposes an image-based visibility estimation method with deep label distribution learning. To train
an accurate model for visibility estimation, it is important to
obtain the precise ground truth for every image. However,
the ground-truth visibility is difficult to be labeled due to its
high ambiguity. To solve this problem, we associate a label
distribution to each image. The label distribution contains all the
possible visibilities with their probabilities. To learn from such
annotation, we employ a CNN-RNN model for visibility-aware
feature extraction and a conditional probability neural network
for distribution prediction. Our experiment shows that labeling
the image with visibility distribution can not only overcome
the inaccurate annotation problem, but also boost the learning
performance without the increase of training examples.

Статья посвящена психологическому анализу особенностей личностного и профессионального становления практического психолога как комплексной психолого-педагогической проблеме, отражающей социально-психологическую реальность. Автор утверждает, что внедрение системы психологического обеспечения в процесс профессионального становления может позитивно влиять на профессиональное становление, самоопределение и самосовершенствование специалистов, что будет способствовать формированию и развитию гармоничной личности. В статье рассматривается вопрос о том, как личностная терапия способствует раскрытию не распознанных ранее черт собственной личности, развивает чувствительность и сознательность, а также способствует улучшению мастерства и техники осваиваемой профессии, снижению личной симптоматики и увеличению уверенности в используемых начинающим психологом методах работы.

Published: June 2021

В статье рассмотрены сущность и специфика предмета «русский язык» как средства воспитания у младших школьников бережного отношения к культурному наследию. Выявлено, что наиболее эффективным и занимательным средством воспитания бережного отношения младших школьников к культурному наследию средствами предмета «русский язык» является использование русского фольклора. Подробно изучены такие малые формы фольклора, как пословицы, поговорки, загадки, русские народные сказки. Сделан вывод о том, что малые формы фольклора, являясь яркими примерами языкового культурного наследия, выполняют: образовательную функцию (знакомство с историческим культурным наследием русского народа, народными традициями, вековой народной мудростью как отражением опыта поколений); дидактическую функцию (развитие речи, словопроизводство, стилистика); воспитательную функцию (воспитание бережного отношения к русскому языку как золотому фонду культурного наследия России).
А.П. ЧЕХОВ И «ЖЕНСКАЯ ПРОЗА»
Authors: Тасуева С.Р. , Сангариева К.Р. , Садулаева М.Х.
Published: June 2021

В данной статье мы сделали попытку проследить преемственные связи между чеховскими произведениями и творчеством современных российских писательниц, представляющих так называемую «женскую прозу». Так же, как и в чеховских рассказах и повестях, в творениях Людмилы Петрушевской, Татьяны Толстой главным героем становится обычный, средний человек, окутанный паутиной жизненных мелочей и неурядиц. Чеховский мир живет в современных произведениях, подчеркивая переходность многих проблем, не теряющих своей актуальности даже после смены эпох. В основном речь идет об одиночестве героев Чехова, Петрушевской и Толстой, оторванных в силу разных причин от внешнего мира, потерявших связь с другими людьми, обреченных на страдания и неприятие многих реалий жизни. Мир плохо устроен, но и человек устроен не лучшим образом – в этом «женская проза» спорит с чеховской.

Музеї під відкритим небом – одна із найперспективніших форм збереження культурної спадщини народу. До них належить Музей народної архітектури і побуту у Львові імені Климентія Шептицького. Територія Музею поділена на сектори (Бойківщина, Рівнинне Закарпаття, Лемківщина, Гуцульщина, Буковина, Покуття, Західне Поділля, Львівщина та Старе українське містечко, Полісся, Волинь), в яких необхідно зберегти наявні насадження та відтворити автентичну флору згідно з відповідними секторами. На основі літературного аналізу запропоновано доповнити експозиції Музею зонами садівництва, городництва та елементами рільництва відповідних історико-етнографічних секторів. Обґрунтовано значущість комплексного підходу до формування експозиції з включенням відповідної до етнографічного зонування рослинної складової для досягнення композиційної цілісності території, гармонійності сприйняття, достовірності подачі архітектурних об'єктів (експонатів). Розроблено концепцію відтворення культурної флори та озеленення території. Для проєктування та подальшого утримання враховано специфіку об'єктів дерев'яної архітектури, що викладено в універсальних схемах формування насаджень на територіях із різним рельєфом. Проаналізовано особливості розташування елементів на території експозиційних споруд та їх зв'язок із прилеглими насадженнями. Запропоновано широкий асортимент рослин для наповнення етноприродного історичного середовища секторів Музею елементами садівництва, городництва та рільництва. За кожним сектором подано попередню оцінку панівного елемента. Запропоновано сумарну оцінку щодо використання рослин для репрезентації господарювання в історико-етнографічних зонах Музею. Отримані результати роботи свідчать про пріоритетність, складність розміщення та компонування насаджень у окремих зонах. Розроблені рекомендації сприятимуть не тільки збереженню цінних історико-культурних об'єктів Музею, але й слугуватимуть спробою реконструкції ландшафтного середовища, традицій природокористування наших предків, максимально наближених до автентичних.
