Authors: Rice William L. , Mateer Tim , Taff B. Derrick , Lawhon Ben , Reigner Nathan , Newman Peter
Published: May 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to alter daily life and lead to changes in the way we spend time outside. In an effort to gather timely and relevant data on national recreation patterns before, during, and after the pandemic, the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics and its academic partner, Pennsylvania State University, have been working to conduct a study that can offer guidance to land managers, recreation providers, and outdoor enthusiasts across the United States. Phase 1 of this assessment was conducted April 9th – 11th, 2020 (Rice et al., 2020). Phase 2 of this assessment was conducted April 30th – May 2nd. This second phase of research—discussed in this preliminary report— was designed to provide additional information regarding changes in recreation trends since April 9th, which provides valuable information for managing dynamic recreational use on public lands. In total, 823 outdoor recreationists were surveyed through the Leave No Trace community in a 48-hour window beginning on the morning of April 30th. The results of this second rapid assessment—complete with comparisons to Phase 1 data—will provide valuable information for managing the changing recreation use of public lands, predicting spikes in recreation, and offering insight for land managers as they work to protect the natural world.The following tables, figures, and corresponding brief descriptions are intended to provide initial results from Phase 2 of our research effort, with comparisons to Phase 1 when appropriate. Further results are forthcoming.
Role of Waste Collection Efficiency in Providing a Cleaner Rural Environment
Authors: MIHAI Florin Constantin , Grozavu Adrian
Published: May 2020

The exposure of rural communities to illegal waste dumping practices associated with the lack of or poor waste collection schemes prior to the closure of rural dumpsites under EU regulations and the role of collection efficiency afterward in reducing this critical environmental threat constitutes a key issue in rural Romania. The present study reveals huge amounts of household uncollected waste released into the natural environment outside the official statistics of rural dumpsites. Despite the expansion of waste collection coverage towards rural areas since 2010, the problem of illegal dumping practice is difficult to solve. The improvement of collection efficiency, better law enforcement, and surveillance of environmental authorities coupled with educational and environmental awareness are necessary steps to combat this bad practice. A circular economy paradigm must be enacted in rural regions through separate collection schemes and to improve cost-efficient alternatives, such as home composting, and traditional and creative reuse practices, particularly in less developed regions.

Published: May 2020

Measures to control the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are having unprecedented impacts on people’s lives around the world. In this paper, we argue that those conducting social research in the energy domain should give special consideration to the internal and external validity of their work conducted during this pandemic period. We set out a number of principles that researchers can consider to give themselves and research users greater confidence that findings and recommendations will still be applicable in years to come. Largely grounded in existing good practice guidance, our recommendations include collecting and reporting additional supporting contextual data, reviewing aspects of research design for vulnerability to validity challenges, and building in longitudinal elements where feasible. We suggest that these approaches also bring a number of opportunities to generate new insights. However, we caution that a more systemic challenge to validity of knowledge produced during this period may result from changes in the kinds of social research that it is practicable to pursue.

Authors: Subedi Sabitra
Published: May 2020

Birth preparedness and complication readiness is the process planning for normal birth and anticipating the action needed in case of an emergency. Promoting birth and emergency planning helps to improve preventive behavior, increase awareness of mothers about danger signs and improvement in care seeking behavior in the case of obstetric complication. A cross sectional descriptive quantitative community-based study was conducted to assess knowledge and practice on birth preparedness and complication readiness among 150 pregnant women of 24 weeks gestation and above in selected wards of Biratnagar with non- probability purposive sampling.

The findings of the study showed that 22.7% of the respondents had adequate knowledge on the birth preparedness and complication readiness and 19.8% of respondents had adequate practice. However, the only 9.3% of respondents were prepared for birth complications. Analysis using chi square test identified statistically significant association between knowledge and practice. The study found significant association of knowledge with gravida and weeks of gestation. It seemed there is significant association of practice level with occupation and weeks of gestation and weeks of gestation. The study identified inadequate knowledge and practices on birth preparedness and complication readiness. Thus, the government office, policy makers and partner that are working in maternal health should give due emphasis to preparation for birth and its complication and provide information and education to all pregnant women at community level.

Gita Philosophy and its Influence on Nepali Politics
Authors: Dahal Girdhari
Published: May 2020

The people of Nepal have witnessed different political movements in the political history of Nepal. The political movements are influenced by different philosophies. Gita philosophy as well has marked distinct impact in the politics of Nepal. The people of Nepal had to bear a lot of injustice, oppression and exploitation during Rana rule. Although the governments prior to Rana rule were also not so much democratic, to some extent they were directed to public welfare. At the time of Rana rule there had taken place many reformations in global politics, but Nepali people were denied off very common citizen rights. So, there was a need for a democratic movement in Nepal. In the campaigns for democratic movements then, there was a very significant impact of Gita philosophy. It is found from this study that four martyrs of 1997BS and founder leaders of Nepali Congress and Nepal Communist Party were influenced by the ideas of Gita philosophy and the general public has a great faith on the Gita philosophy. Gita philosophy has formed the foundations for the democratic movement in Nepal. And even after the establishment of democracy in Nepal, there were series of political changes in Nepal. And in the revolutions or campaigns for restoration of democracy or for the republic, there has been a role of different political leaders and as many of the first-generation leaders are still in active politics, we can find direct or indirect influence of Gita philosophy in Nepalese politics. Though the later generations of leadership seem to have less knowledge about Gita, their activities and the political interests matched with the principles of Gita philosophy.

It is well recognized throughout the history that religiosity, spirituality and the meditation practice have significant effects to the physical and mental health. Hence, this paper interested to evaluate the effectiveness of spiritual meditation on drug addiction recovery and its effects on psychological and mental health aspects. Three main databases in medicinal and psychology field were screened to identify the eligible studies which are PubMed, Cochrane and Scopus by using Boolean expression. Fourteen papers were included in this review. Standardized mean differences were calculated based on the intergroup mean difference and standard deviation followed by Cochran’s Q and I2 determination for heterogeneity analysis. The mean differences were statistically pooled in the meta-analysis and presented as a forest plot. The risk of bias was high for each study and assessed using the Jadad scale. The meta-analysis showed significant differences in across studies for addiction related outcome (I2=27%, 95% CI: -1.703, -0.454), anxiety (I2=0%, 95% CI: -0.874, -0.634) and stress (I2=100%, 95% CI: -0.874, -0.634). In general, spiritual meditation may promote the addiction recovery as well as improve the psychological and mental health outcomes by reducing the depression, anxiety and stress symptoms. In conclusion, randomized control trial on spiritual meditation gave positive impact on the addiction behavior as well as mental health and clarifies its reliability on addiction therapy problems.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 04 No. 04 October’20 Page : 237-250

Published: May 2020

Background: In chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients,measuring carotid artery intima– media thickness (CIMT) canpredict coronary heart disease and stroke, resulting from systemic atherosclerosis.Objective: To find out correlation of carotid artery intima–media thickness and dyslipidemia in chronic kidney disease in a Bangladesh population.Methods: A cross-sectional analytic study was conducted in the Department of Nephrology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladeshi, between July 2014 and June 2015, on 80 CKD patients. Standard laboratory techniques were followed to estimate all biochemical parameters. CIMT measurement was done by duplex study of carotid vessels through high resolution B-mode ultrasound technique.Results: Among 80 patients, 29 (36%) were in 18-30 age group, 18 were (23%) 31-40 age group and 33 (41%) were between 41-50 age group; mean age was 36.1±9.5 years. 51 (64%) patients were male and 29 (36%) were female. Though mean CIMT was found markedly increased in all CKD patients, the differences among stage 3, 4 and 5 was not significant. Mean CIMT was found more in dyslipidemic patients in comparison those with normal lipid profile, which was statistically significant (p<0.05). Positive correlations were found between total cholesterol (TC) and CIMT (r=+0.295; p=0.008), triglyceride (TG) and CIMT (r=+0.238; p=0.034), and lowdensity lipoprotein (LDL) and CIMT (r=+0.231; p=0.039). However, there was negative correlation between high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and CIMT (r=–0.242; p=0.030).Conclusion: Our data suggest that the mean carotid intima-media thickness was markedly high in patients with CKD in comparison to normal expected value; however, there was no significant difference in thickness among CKD stages 3, 4 and 5. It was also observed that carotid artery intima-media thickness showed significant positive correlation with total cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL, but negative correlation with HDL.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 04 No. 04 October’20 Page : 271-276

Published: May 2020

Introduction: No definitive treatment is available for SLE. Moringa oleifera Leaf Extract is one of promising novel treatments in SLE because of anti inflammatory and immunomodulatory effect. Our study aimed to identify the effect of Moringa oleifera Leaf Extract on the level of hs-CRP, ESR and MEX SLEDAI score in lupus patients. HsCRP and ESR levels are related to the pathogenesis of SLE and they are positively correlated with the disease activity. The MEX SLEDAI score is a simple method that is quite valid for finding the degree of SLE activity, and MEX SLEDAI has the ability to evaluate clinical changes in SLE patients.Methods: Experimental study consisted of 29 samples of SLE patients, divided into 2 groups, namely 13 SLE patients who received Moringa oleifera leaf extract as much as 40.5 mg / kg per day and 16 SLE patients who received placebo. The study was conducted for 28 days. MEX SLEDAI scores, hsCRP and ESR levels were measured before and after administration of therapy. Statistical analysis was applied using SPSS 23, with different t-test, Mann Whitney, and Will Coxon tests. P is significant if p <0.05.Result: Result of the study showed that before Moringa oleifera leaf extract was given, the average MEX SLEDAI score was (1.56 ± 2.16) for control, and (2.69 ± 3.01) for treatment, hsCRP (0.24 ± 0.22) for control and ( 0.76 ± 1.01) for treatment, ESR (25.56 ± 23.44) for control and (26.00 ± 25.27) for treatment. There was a significant decrease in MEX SLEDAI score in the treatment group. There was no significant reduction in hsCRP and ESR of SLE patients in both groups.Conclusion: This study showed that the effect of lowering the MEX SLEDAI score on the administration of Moringa leaf extract was significant and could not significantly reduce hsCRP and ESR levels.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 04 No. 04 October’20 Page : 291-297

Modelle? Brauche ich nicht. Modellieren? Tue ich nicht – oder vielleicht doch?

Die wenigsten Menschen würden sich spontan als Modellierer bezeichnen. Modelle werden oft als überaus kompliziert, wenig nützlich und nicht praxisnah eingeschätzt. Wir stellen diese (Vor-)Urteile auf den Prüfstand und zeigen auf, dass Modelle in unserem Alltag unentbehrlich sind und es uns ermöglichen, Entscheide zeitnah zu fällen, ohne überaus lange brüten zu müssen. Anhand einer einfachen Entscheidung erklären wir den typischen Ablauf bei der Modellbildung. Sind Modelle schon im täglichen Leben unverzichtbar, so ist dies in der Forstwirtschaft und in der Waldforschung noch stärker der Fall. Seit je bilden Waldmodelle wie der Normalwald oder die Ertragstafeln das Rückgrat nachhaltiger Eingriffe. Globale Trends und klimatische Veränderungen der letzten 50 bis 70 Jahre verlangen nach dynamischen, klimasensitiven Waldmodellen, um Fragen zur zukünftigen Entwicklung von Wäldern, Baumarten, Kohlenstoffsenken, Holznutzungspotenzialen, Schäden und Gefahren zu beantworten und Handlungsoptionen zu analysieren. Jede dieser Fragen bedarf aber eines spezifischen Modells oder einer spezifischen Modellgruppe. Wir stellen anhand von sechs spezifischen Fragestellungen in der Schweiz verfügbare Waldmodelle vor, die zur Beantwortung dieser Fragen geeignet sind.

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by pathogenic bacteria. The bacillus is transmitted mainly through the coughing mechanism, in addition to sneezing and speech, which are responsible for releasing droplets of saliva. In Brazil, 69,569 new cases of tuberculosis were confirmed in 2017. In the Brazilian state of Amapá, still in 2017, there were 237 new cases of tuberculosis reported. The objective of this work is to compare the percentage of confirmed cases of tuberculosis in Brazil, in the North region, in the state of Amapá and in the municipality of Macapá, between the years 2013 and 2017. Data were collected on the DATASUS website. Co-infections as well as alcoholism, drug use, urban agglomerations and the individual’s nutritional status can also represent factors that increase tuberculosis cases. Social vulnerability and little primary health care also favor an increase in these numbers. Having a Tropical Diseases Reference Center (CRDT), which also includes the Testing and Counseling Center (CTA) and Therapeutic Home Assistance (ADT) helps in detecting cases, streamlining and controlling the treatment of patients. Men in the working age group are more affected due to their necessary social interaction for work.

A tuberculose (TB) é uma doença infecciosa causada pela bactéria patogênica. O bacilo é transmitido principalmente por meio do mecanismo da tosse, além do espirro e da fala, os quais encarregam-se de lançar gotículas de saliva. No Brasil 69.569 novos casos de tuberculose tiveram seu diagnóstico confirmado em 2017. No estado brasileiro do Amapá, ainda em 2017, houveram 237 novos casos de tuberculose notificados. O objetivo deste trabalho é comparar a porcentagem de casos confirmados de tuberculose no Brasil, na região Norte, no estado do Amapá e no município de Macapá, entre os anos de 2013 e 2017. Os dados foram coletados no site DATASUS. As coinfecções assim como o alcoolismo, uso de drogas, aglomerações urbanas e o estado nutricional do indivíduo também podem representar fatores que aumentam os casos de tuberculose. A vulnerabilidade social e a pouca atenção primária a saúde também favorecem o aumento desses números. Ter um Centro de Referência em Doenças Tropicais (CRDT), que também agrega o Centro de Testagem e Aconselhamento (CTA) e Assistência Domiciliar Terapêutica (ADT) auxilia na detecção de casos agilizando e controlando o tratamento de pacientes. Homens na faixa etária de trabalho são mais acometidos por conta da sua necessária interação social para o trabalho.
Razumijevanje učeništva u kontekstu židovstva Isusovog vremena
Authors: Gracin Martina , Budiselić Ervin
Published: May 2020

Upotreba pojmova „učenik“ i „učeništvo“ vrlo je uobičajena u evanđeoskom kršćanstvu, a značenje tih pojmova smatra se samo po sebi razumljivim. Međutim, iako je u tim krugovima došlo do svojevrsnog usvajanja ovih pojmova, oni su već ranije postojali i u židovskoj kulturi Isusova vremena. Svrha i cilj ovog je članka proučiti značenje koncepta učeništva u njegovu originalnom kontekstu i vidjeti koliko to značenje odudara od značenja koje ovi pojmovi imaju danas. Ovu ćemo temu obraditi u dva dijela. U prvome dijelu članka proučili smo starozavjetni korijen koncepta učeništva, sagledali židovski sustav obrazovanja u Isusovu vremenu, razmotrili smo je li i sam Isus, i u kojoj mjeri, prošao židovski sustav obrazovanja te kako i na koji je način primjenjivao taj model u poučavanju svojih učenika. U drugome dijelu članka prvo ćemo razmotriti praksu učeništva u prvoj Crkvi, a nakon toga ponuditi smjernice za primjenu Isusova koncepta učeništva danas u Crkvi.
Ključan je fokus ovog članka na problematici prenošenja principa učeništva shvaćenih unutar konteksta židovske kulture na Crkvu danas budući da istraživanje otkriva kako suvremeno razumijevanje tog pojma ne odgovara načinu na koji se shvaćalo učeništvo Isusova doba. Naime, premda je učeništvo i tada sadržavalo prenošenje informacija, važnije od toga je bilo slijediti učitelja (rabina) i učiti od njega u bliskom odnosu. U članku se zaključuje da moguće rješenje za ovaj izazov treba potražiti prvo u promjeni razmišljanja o tome što učeništvo uistinu jest (promjena fokusa), a onda u praksi kroz mentorstvo i male grupe ciljano izložiti obje strane (i „učitelja“ i „učenika“) iskustvu poučavanja primjerom.
Capetownski iskaz o predanju – graditi Kristov mir u podijeljenom i slomljenom svijetu – biblijski pogled na pitanje naroda s posebnim osvrtom na hrvatski kontekst
Authors: Kovačević David
Published: May 2020

Ovaj članak osvrće se na pojam nacije iz biblijske perspektive analizirajući one naglaske koje ističe Capetownski iskaz o predanju, posebice u poglavlju „Graditi Kristov mir u podijeljenom i slomljenom svijetu“. Poseban osvrt bit će dan na temu nacije i nacionalizma u hrvatskom kontekstu. U prvome dijelu daje se uvod u tri temeljne teorije nacionalizma, u drugome dijelu analizira se svetopisamsko poimanje naroda. Nakon toga pozornost se usmjerava na dokument Capetownski iskaz o predanju i na tematiku izgradnje mira i pravde među narodima, a u zadnjem dijelu nudi se tumačenje odnosa naroda i nacionalizama u hrvatskom kontekstu iz rimokatoličke i evanđeoske perspektive.
Cilj i svrha članka je analizirati biblijske i teološke naglaske dokumenta po pitanju nacije, dovesti ih u interakciju s drugim dokumentima i teološkim glasovima, i razumjeti njihovu primjenu unutar hrvatskog konteksta sa svrhom doprinosa evanđeoskom pokretu u Hrvatskoj u njegovoj misiji naviještanja Evanđelja u hrvatskom kontekstu. U članku se zaključuje kako postoje biblijski temelji koji pozitivno vrednuju egzistenciju naroda. Njih treba promatrati pozitivno iz perspektive Božjega stvaralačkog čina, negativno kroz prihvaćanje stvarnosti pada koji je utjecao i na egzistenciju naroda, te pozitivno iz perspektive Božje eshatološke budućnosti gdje i narodi imaju svoje mjesto.

Bioreactor Simulation with Quadratic Neural Network Model Approximations and Cost Optimization with Markov Decision Process
Authors: Koncsos Tamás
Published: May 2020

The efficient operation of activated sludge type wastewater treatment plants is an ongoing topic for the utility providers, where electric energy consumption shares are high, giving cca. 30 % of total operational costs. Intervention methods for intensification include fine tuning of aeration settings, sludge removal and the adjustment of recirculation rates. In order to analyze the effects of various process control strategies, activated sludge models (ASM) are used for the purpose of biokinetic modeling. In practice, most model simulators do not incorporate optimization and necessary auto-calibration of the latter, due to high computational demand of timeseries evaluation. In this paper, a new mathematical model is presented, which makes biokinetic simulations suitable for the use in decision support systems. Namely, the ASM model is approximated with a computanional inexpesive quadratic model solution, fed into a set of mass-balance corrected neural networks. Cost optimization is achieved with Markov decision process model. The developed method was illustrated for a case of Hungarian, large wastewater treatment plant. It was proven, the model is able to find better aeration schemes for the plant in aspect of cost of operation and nitrogen removal efficiency. The model can be used to find cost-optimal policies under arbitrary defined conditions. As a benefit, results can be implemented into industrial logic controllers.

La presente investigación tiene como objetivo analizar la realidad de las incubadoras/semilleros de empresas en la zona 3 del Ecuador que, según la Secretaria Nacional de planificación y desarrollo, comprende las provincias Cotopaxi, Chimborazo y Tungurahua. Mediante una investigación exploratoria y mixta se diseña el instrumento para recoger datos primarios en tres provincias, excluyendo del estudio a Pastaza debido a que no existen incubadoras. Luego de una revisión de registros oficiales y visitas de campo se determinó que la población de estudio se constituye de cinco incubadoras/semilleros, dos acreditados por la Secretaría de Educación Superior, Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación – Senescyt; y tres no acreditados que operan como incubadoras privadas, a quienes se aplica la encuesta. Para el procesamiento de datos se utiliza la herramienta estadística Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) y el estadígrafo clúster jerárquico, a través del cual se analizó 5 bloques:1) datos sociodemográficos 2) características del emprendedor y de las incubadoras; 3) recursos de las incubadoras/semilleros; 4) requisitos para ofertar asesoría; y, 5) éxitos y fracasos de los emprendedores. Los resultados muestran que las incubadoras cuentan con un portafolio básico de servicios y requisitos previo al asesoramiento de los emprendimientos, realizan convenios con entidades públicas y privadas, además se identifica el nivel de instrucción y las características que poseen los asesores de estos centros. Por otra parte, se conoce el número de proyectos que han sido asesorados por estos centros y cuántos han logrado permanecer en el mercado. Finalmente, los resultados se representan gráficamente en un dendograma o árbol lógico, para identificar las similitudes de las incubadoras motivo de estudio, respecto las particularidades que tienen estos centros, los recursos, la experiencia y el ecosistema que ofrecen para fortalecer y consolidar los proyectos de sus usuarios emprendedores.

Published: May 2020

El estudio presenta la relación entre la perspectiva y la percepción del servicio recibido a través del modelo SERVQUAL que prestan las Aseguradoras y Productoras de Seguros de Tungurahua, este estudio se desarrolla con una visión de naturaleza cuantitativa no experimental de carácter transversal y alcance correlacional de quienes han adquirido un seguro vehicular. Se concluye que la dimensión fiabilidad es la más importante para los clientes al medir la calidad del servicio, por el contrario, es la dimensión menos eficiente en las aseguradoras según el modelo expuesto. Al aplicar análisis factorial se puede identificar la correlación existente entre dimensiones y destaca una fuerte relación en una atención oportuna, mostrar interés por las necesidades de los clientes y al demostrar capacidad profesional. Del mismo modo se evidencia que no influye la apariencia del personal de seguros ni los equipos modernos como capacidad de respuesta cuando se presta el servicio y se expone una nueva configuración de subdimensiones para mejorarlo.
CANCER, SIDE EFFECTS OF CHEMOTHERAPY AND NURSİNG CARE
Authors: SARUHAN Çiçek
Published: May 2020

Cancer is a complex disease that emerges from uncontrolled cell growth as a result of genetic and environmental factors. Although there are various types of cancer and standard procedures are applied to specific types of cancers, it is also a personal disease. Cancer treatment varies depending on the cancer type, placement, stage, general health of the individual and other factors. Furthermore, cancer treatment is complex, costly and requires a long time. As the prevalence of cancer increased in societies, the application of systemic chemotherapy and the occurrence of associated side effects also increased. Early monitoring and assessment has become important for early diagnosis of side effect symptoms and reduction and prevention of complications through symptom control. Social environments and families should be taken into consideration during patient assessment. Monitoring and assessment of cancer patients by all healthcare professionals and nurses during chemotherapy is at least as important as the follow-up of disease.
In this review, we aim to assess the factors leading to cancer, chemotherapy used to treat cancer and side effects associated with chemotherapy and to examine the applicable nursing care practices.

Background: Oxygen therapy, when duly performed, is very useful. On the other hand, when performed inappropriately, it has significant adverse effects in addition to its therapeutic characteristic. Therefore, the nurses have to have enough knowledge of oxygen therapy.
Aim: The aim of this descriptive study is to determine the level of knowledge of nurses regarding oxygen therapy.
Methods: The research sample consisted of 302 nurses who agreed to participate in the research, working in a state hospital in Ankara/Turkey. The data have been collected by an descriptive characteristics form and a knowledge test of 40 questions regarding oxygen therapy.
Results: In the study that the knowledge level score average of the nurses is =22.94±4.5 (min=8, max=35). The knowledge levels score averages of the nurses have lower than expected and nurses’ knowledge is particularly inadequate in terms of oxygen therapy application methods. In this research, the nurses over the age of 45, working in the same department for more than 14 years and working in the operating room have had lower scores (p0.05).
Conclusion: In order to enhance the level of knowledge of nurses, it is recommended to provide more comprehensive oxygen therapy education at hospitals and undergraduate level. It is thought that the results of the study shall contribute in determining the educational needs of nurses for oxygen therapy and be a guide for future researches.
Change in fish and benthic communities in Belizean patch reefs in and outside of a marine reserve, across a parrotfish capture ban
Authors: McClanahan TR , Muthiga NA
Published: May 2020

The role of a marine reserve and fisheries regulations in restoring fish populations on reefs disturbed by climate impacts was evaluated. Eight patch reefs, divided equally between no-fishing and fished zones in the remote Glover’s Reef atoll lagoon, were studied for 22 yr: 13 yr before and 9 yr after a ban on parrotfish capture. Findings indicate that the main effect of the fisheries closure was the recovery of targeted carnivorous species, notably snappers, jacks, and groupers. Recovery continued for most of the time series, including the later period when parrotfish capture was banned. Parrotfish abundance slowly declined in both management zones and across the ban period. The loss occurred for both small non-fished species, such as the striped parrotfish Scarus iserti, and for larger fished species, such as the stoplight Sparisoma viride and red-band parrotfish Sparisoma aurofrenatum. Consequently, parrotfish abundance appeared to be controlled by the ecology of these patch reefs rather than fishing mortality. We suggest that the high and persistent cover of late-successional algae reduces the renewal rates of algae, which had negative consequences for all studied parrotfish populations. Low ocean currents and physical energy in the lagoon appeared to promote algal persistence. Thus, parrotfish bans may be more effective in promoting reef recovery in environments that promote rapid algal turnover. Fisheries regulations are unlikely to rapidly restore hard corals on these patch reefs, which have slowly transitioned to algal dominance since first described in 1970.
