Background: Bucks raised for breeding purposes receive no special attention and are raised at random without following the correct selection process. Besides, the fertility of the male bucks is never addressed. Goat breeders have noted a sharp decline in the reproductive efficiency of Ganjam goats, associated with a lengthened kidding interval, fewer successful pregnancies and decreased twining frequency. The measurement of male fertility parameters is crucial for estimating the breeding performance of any species since males contribute 50% of the reproductive efficiency. Methods: A total of 120 Ganjam bucks of different age groups reared by the local farmers of Rambha, Khalikote and Chhatrapur areas of Ganjam district were used for the present study. A total of six healthier bucks of age 1.5(B1), 2(B2), 2.5(B3), 3.5(B4), 4(B5) and 4.5(B6) years were procured from the Farmers for the experimental purpose. For study on effect of season on the semen qualities, twelve ejaculates from each buck were collected, six ejaculates between the month of July to August (season 1) and six ejaculates during October to November (Season 2). Result: The scrotal length, scrotal width, scrotal circumference have highly significant positive degree of association with Flehmen’s reaction and Libido score and all the parameters exhibited highly significant negative degree of association with reaction time. Moreover, the scrotal length, scrotal width and scrotal circumference had significantly higher positive degree of association with colour, volume of the semen and negative degree of association with MBRT. Further, the sperm concentration revealed a highly significant degree of association with scrotal length, scrotal width, scrotal circumference, livability % and acrosome integrity and a significant degree of association with mass activity. Livability % of the semen samples of the six bucks revealed a highly significant degree of association with scrotal length, scrotal width, scrotal circumference, sperm concentration and acrosome integrity.

Background: Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] is the most important major oilseed crop among the edible oil seed crops. It has emerged as a potential protein as well as oilseed crop worldwide. The average productivity of soybean is low due to less importance and mostly grown under rain-fed condition without using bio-fertilizers (novel bio-formulations). Hence the current study was carried out to enhance the productivity and profitability of soybean under rainfed condition. Methods: The present investigation was carried out at AICRP on Soybean, Main Agricultural Research Station, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad with medium deep black soil under rainfed condition. The experiment was executed in a Randomized Block Design with three replications and seven treatments. The influence of bioformulations on growth, yield parameters, yield, economics, quality and nutrient status of soybean (DSb 21) was carried out during kharif 2021-22 and 2022-23. Result: The pooled data of two years concluded that, application of 100% RDF alone (T2) was recorded significantly higher dry matter production (79.2 g plant-1), pods per plant (64.0), seed index (14.41 g), seed yield (2,797 kg ha-1) and straw yield (4,340 kg ha-1) and similarly higher uptake of nitrogen (103.74 kg ha-1), phosphorus (17.54 kg ha-1) and potassium (91.40 kg ha-1) in soybean crop followed by next best treatment with application of 75 per cent RDF + Rhizobium + MDSR14 + 12c (76.6 g plant-1, 61.6, 14.19 g, 2,631, 4,170, 100.12, 16.73 and 86.64 kg ha-1 respectively) (T7) as compared to other treatments. Further, higher net returns (Rs.1,13,015 ha-1) and benefit cost ratio (4.73) was also obtained in T7. Therefore, the application of 75 per cent RDF + Rhizobium + MDSR14 + 12c can be recommended for eco-friendly, economically viable, environmentally sound and sustainability in nature, besides improving the physico chemical properties of soil and in turn higher productivity and profitability under medium deep black soil in Northern Transition zone of Karnataka (India).

Published: May 2024

La inclusión de las mujeres en el mercado laboral sigue siendo un desafío, agravado por las persistentes barreras sociales, culturales y legales que han limitado su acceso a diversos sectores profesionales. No obstante, en las últimas décadas ha ocurrido cambio significativo en la percepción y comprensión de los roles de género en el ámbito laboral. Esta evolución ha llevado a numerosos países a implementar medidas significativas con el objetivo de fomentar la participación equitativa de hombres y mujeres en el mundo laboral, con la intención de erradicar la discriminación y promover la igualdad de género. Este empeño se ha convertido en un pilar fundamental para el progreso social y económico, reconociendo el valor intrínseco de la diversidad y la inclusión en el entorno laboral. En este sentido, el presente estudio de investigación se enfoca en analizar la relación entre el liderazgo femenino y el rendimiento laboral de las mujeres empleadas en puestos directivos dentro del gobierno municipal de Lima Metropolitana durante el año 2022. El propósito de este trabajo es determinar la relación del liderazgo femenino en el desempeño laboral e identificar los desafíos que enfrentan mujeres líderes en este contexto. Se utilizó un enfoque cuantitativo no experimental, recolectando datos a través de un cuestionario administrado a 198 trabajadoras en cargos directivos en los gobiernos municipales ubicados en Lima Metropolitana. Los hallazgos de este estudio de investigación indican que el liderazgo femenino tiene una relación positiva de magnitud alta (r=0.903) con el desempeño laboral de las directivas en el gobierno municipal. Con base en estos hallazgos, se hacen recomendaciones proporcionando una base sólida para futuras políticas y prácticas que fomenten la equidad y promuevan un ambiente laboral más inclusivo y justo.

Authors:   , Rivadeneyra Berrocal Larisa Isabel
Published: May 2024

El presente estudio evalúa si el impacto de la diversificación de gasto en alimentos afecta en la condición de enfermedad crónica de los menores de edad como consecuencia de la desnutrición. La bibliografía existente manifiesta que la diversidad alimentaria es una medida indirecta de la calidad de la dieta, y el grado en que se satisfacen las necesidades nutricionales de los hogares depende de las decisiones económicas para acceder una variedad de alimentos y aquello influye en el estado de salud y nutricional de los miembros del hogar. El análisis se realizó a nivel nacional con datos proporcionados por la ENAHO en hogares donde se presencia de menores de edad, cuyo periodo de estudio fue el 2019. Se adoptó el método de Mínimos Cuadrados en Dos Etapas (MC2E) para identificar el efecto causal de las variables en cuestión. Asimismo, se efectuaron dos estimaciones en la que se incluyó hogares que financian totalmente su canasta de consumo con dinero y aquellos hogares que adquirieron su canasta de alimentos con otra fuente de acceso, así como el autoconsumo, auto suministro entre otros. Los resultados revelaron que, según ambas estimaciones, la diversificación del gasto en alimentos a través del Índice de Simpson (SI) ya sea parcial o totalmente financiado por los hogares, incidieron negativamente sobre la condición de enfermedad crónica de los menores, pues el consumo de una canasta alimentaria diversa conlleva a mejorar su condición nutricional y reduce las probabilidades de contraer enfermedades. Finalmente, la investigación identificó a la diversificación como una herramienta de medición prometedora para garantizar la seguridad alimentaria y el bienestar de la salud en la economía nutricional, para así comprender la composición del gasto alimentario de los hogares y los determinantes que pueden interferir en el acceso a una canasta de alimentos.

Authors:   , Palomino Machacca Pierre Anderson , Jeri Triveño Christian Alberto
Published: May 2024

Antecedentes: La discontinuidad del uso de métodos anticonceptivos puede tener muchas causas, una de ellas puede ser el nivel socioeconómico. El objetivo del presente estudio es evaluar si existe una relación entre el nivel socioeconómico y la discontinuidad de métodos anticonceptivos en estudiantes universitarias. Métodos: Se utilizó un cuestionario online. La variable dependiente fue la discontinuidad anticonceptiva y se midió con la siguiente pregunta: ¿Ha abandonado, discontinuado o interrumpido el uso de su método anticonceptivo principal? La variable independiente es el nivel socioeconómico, para evaluarla y categorizarla se usó la “Encuesta de Medición de Capacidades Financieras en los Países Andinos”. Para el analisis de las variables se usaron las pruebas estadisticas: chi chuadrado, t-student, razones de prevalencia Resultados: Se encuestaron 382 participantes. La edad promedio fue 21.7 años. Se observó que el 54.2% de las estudiantes discontinuó el uso de su método anticonceptivo principal. En referencia al nivel socioeconómico la mayor parte de la población pertenece al sector B1 (32.7%) seguido del A2 (31.7%). El nivel socioeconómico tuvo relación estadísticamente significativa en el nivel B con la discontinuidad anticonceptiva. RPa del nivel B: 1.22, IC: 95% (1.00- 1.48) en comparación con el nivel A. El motivo principal de discontinuidad anticonceptiva más comúnmente reportado fue debido a los efectos colaterales que estos causaban en las encuestadas. Conclusiones: Más de la mitad de las estudiantes discontinuaron su método anticonceptivo principal y se concluyó que el nivel socioeconómico sí tuvo relación con la discontinuidad, esta era mayor en las estudiantes de nivel socioeconómico B. Futuros estudios deberían investigar los motivos específicos por cada método especifico y nivel socioeconómico.

The Neocarya macrophylla plant is used traditionally for food, medicinal, spiritual and industrial purposes. It is also used as a soap, dye, glue, fodder, termite repellent, firewood and for structural materials. Few studies on the physicochemical, nutritional content, phytochemical and pharmacological activities have validated the benefits of N. macrophylla to humanity as a food, in cosmetics or pharmaceutical products. The major bioactive constituents identified in the plant so far are steroids and flavonoids, such as, stigmasterol, quercetin, catechin and its related glycosides, as well as glucosamines. Extracts of the plant have shown good antivenom, antimicrobial, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antimycobacterial, anthelmintic and antioxidant activities. Acute toxicity studies have confirmed the plant to be toxic. More studies on the plant are required in order to exploit other biological activities as claimed by traditional healers and also to isolate more bioactive compounds. In addition, the safety and tolerability assessment of N. macrophylla should be undertaken due to its widespread usage.
Multi-interface engineering of nickel-based electrocatalysts for alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction
Authors: Zhang Xiaoxiang , Guo Yuxuan , Wang Congwei
Published: May 2024

High gravimetric energy density and zero carbon emission of hydrogen have motivated hydrogen energy to be an attractive alternative to fossil fuels. Electrochemical water splitting in alkaline medium, driven by green electricity from renewable sources, has been mentioned as a potential solution for sustainable hydrogen production. Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), as a cathodic half-reaction of water splitting, requires additional overpotential to obtain protons via water adsorption/dissociation, suffering from slow kinetics in alkaline solution. Robust and active nickel (Ni)-based electrocatalyst is a promising candidate for achieving precious-metal comparable performance owing to its platinum-like electronic structures with more efficient electrical power consumption. Various modification strategies have been explored on Ni-based catalysts, among which multi-interface engineering is one of the most effective routines to optimize both the intrinsic activity of Ni-based electrocatalysts and the extrinsic stacked component limitations. Herein, we systematically summarize the recent progress of multi-interface engineering of Ni-based electrocatalysts to improve their alkaline HER catalytic activity. The origin of sluggish alkaline HER kinetics is first discussed. Subsequently, three kinds of interfaces, geometrically and reactively, conductive substrate/electrocatalyst interface, electrocatalyst internal heterointerface, and electrocatalyst/electrolyte interface, were cataloged and discussed on their contribution mechanisms toward alkaline HER. Particular focuses lie on the microstructural and electronic modulation of key intermediates with energetically favorable adsorption/desorption behaviors via rationally designed interfaces. Finally, challenges and perspectives for multi-interface engineering are discussed. We hope that this review will be inspiring and beneficial for the exploration of efficient Ni-based electrocatalysts for alkaline water electrolysis.
Na-deficient P2-type layered oxide cathodes for practical sodium-ion batteries
Authors: Huang Yu , Zeng Weixiong , Li Kui , Zhu Xiaobo
Published: May 2024

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have attracted enormous attention as candidates in stationary energy storage systems, because of the decent electrochemical performance based on cheap and abundant Na-ion intercalation chemistry. Layered oxides, the workhorses of modern lithium-ion batteries, have regained interest for replicating their success in enabling SIBs. A unique feature of sodium layered oxides is their ability to crystallize into a thermodynamically stable P2-type layered structure with under-stoichiometric Na content. This structure provides highly open trigonal prismatic environments for Na ions, permitting high Na+ mobility and excellent structural stability. This review delves into the intrinsic characteristics and key challenges faced by P2-type cathodes and then comprehensively summarizes the up-to-date advances in modification strategies from compositional design, elemental doping, phase mixing, morphological control, and surface modification to sodium compensation. The updated understanding presented in this review is anticipated to guide and expedite the development of P2-type layered oxide cathodes for practical SIB applications.

Published: May 2024

Tomat merupakan salah satu komoditi holtikultura yang produktivitasnya tinggi. Tomat umumnya dimanfaatkan oleh masyarakat sebagai sayuran atau bahan tambahan pada suatu masakan. Selain itu, tomat juga dapat dibuat menjadi produk yang dikomersilkan seperti saus. Meskipun demikian ketika tiba panen raya tomat, masih banyak tomat yang tidak termanfaatkan dan akhirnya membusuk. Hal ini akan berdampak pada meningkatnya food waste yang dapat mencemari lingkungan. Tingginya produktivitas tomat juga tidak seimbang dengan tingkat konsumsi masyarakat yang hanya menjadi bahan tambahan masakan. Sehingga diperlukan produk inovasi untuk mengurangi jumlah tomat yang tidak termanfaatkan dan meningkatkan konsumsi masyarakat serta mengurangi kerugian yang dialami oleh pelaku budidaya tomat, maka dilakukanlah inovasi olahan tomat kurmato (kurma tomat). Kurmato memiliki bentuk lonjong yang menyerupai tomat dan memiliki cita rasa khas dengan masa simpan yang lebih Panjang dibandingkan tomat segar. Kegiatan pengabdian ini dilakukan melalui transfer teknologi meliputi edukasi terkait proses produksi dan teknik pengemasan hingga kegiatan praktik pengolahan dan pendampingan. Kegiatan pengabdian yang telah dilakukan menghasilkan produk kurma tomat yang siap untuk dipasarkan dengan kemasan reusable serta label kemasan informatif dan menarik.

ABSTRACT
Tomatoes are one of the horticultural commodities with high productivity. Tomatoes are generally used by the community as vegetables or additives to a dish. In addition, tomatoes can also be made into commercialized products such as sauces. However, when it comes to the bumper harvest of tomatoes, there are still many tomatoes that are not used and eventually rot. This will have an impact on increasing food waste that can pollute the environment. The high productivity of tomatoes is also not balanced with the level of public consumption which is only an additive to cooking. So that innovation products are needed to reduce the number of unused tomatoes and increase public consumption and reduce losses experienced by tomato cultivators, so an innovation of processed kurmato tomatoes (tomato dates) is carried out. Kurmato has an oval shape that resembles a tomato and has a distinctive taste with a longer shelf life than fresh tomatoes. This service activity is carried out through technology transfer including education related to production processes and packaging techniques to processing practices and mentoring activities. The service activities that have been carried out produce tomato date products that are ready to be marketed with reusable packaging and informative and attractive packaging labels.

Authors: Nikouli Eleni , Kormas Konstantinos , Jin Yang , Olsen Yngvar , Bakke Ingrid , Vadstein Olav
Published: May 2024

Backgound: The present study investigated the effect of different lipid source in the feed on the colonization and the bacterial succession in early life stages (fertilized eggs until 93 days post first feeding) of S. salar. The two diets used in this study, FD (fish oil based diet) and VD (vegetable oil based diet), were formulated to cover the fish nutritional requirements and except the lipid source the components were identical between them.Hindgut samples collected at 0, 35, 65 and 93 days post first feeding (dpff). Moreover, fertilized eggs, yolk sac larvae, rearing water and feed were also sampled in order to assess a possible contribution of their microbiota to the colonization of the gut. To analyze the composition of the bacterial communities, the Illumina MiSeq platform was used. Results: S. salar growth variables (mean wet weight and total length) did not differ significantly during the experiment (p> 0.05) across replicate tanks and between dietary treatments. The analysis of the 16S rDNA sequencing data revealed a total of 4548 unique OTUs, affiliated in 21 bacterial phyla. Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria and Bacteroidetes were the dominant bacterial phyla. 13 OTUs were shared among all S. salar samples independent of life stage and diet treatment. Similarity percentages analysis (SIMPER) based on Bray–Curtis distance, showed that the average dissimilarity among the groups of the same life stages was 76.0%, whereas the average dissimilarity within groups of the same dietary treatment was 78.5% (FD) and 83.6% (VD). Conclusion: Feeding on either fish oil or vegetable oil-based diets, did not result in significant differences in the intestinal microbiota. The composition of gut microbiota did not differ significantly between the two dietary treatments, but changed with age, and each stage was characterized by different dominant bacteria. These OTUs are related to species that provide different functions and have been isolated from a variety of environments. Finally, this study revealed the occurrence of a core microbiota independent of the studied life stages and diet during the early life stages of Atlantic salmon.

V T displayed a negative correlation between receptor availability and age in the anterior cingulate cortex (r= -0.61, p = 0.004), frontal cortex (r= -0.50, p = 0.020), olfactory cortex (r= -0.50, p = 0.022), parietal cortex (r= -0.58, p = 0.006), cerebellum cortex (r= -0.53, p = 0.013), insula (r= -0.48, p = 0.027), putamen (r= -0.46, p = 0.034), thalamus (r= -0.45, p = 0.038), and hippocampus (r = 0.45, p = 0.039). No other significant correlations with age or BMI were found.
Conclusion
This in vivo H3R study found a significant age-related decline in most cortical and subcortical regions.
Detrended Fluctuation Analysis on the variation of Solar Energetic Particles during Solar Maximum and Minimum Periods
Authors: V VIPIN DAS , Gopinath Sumesh
Published: May 2024

The investigations related with solar energetic particles (SEPs) are of specific significance as they can harm life in outer space. In the current study, the long-range correlations or self-similarity of the SEPs, as a proxy for interplanetary fluxes, during different periods of solar cycle 23 has been analyzed. The global scaling exponent (\(\varvec{\alpha }\)-exponent) from robust detrended fluctuation analysis (r-DFA) is calculated for proton flux at various energies (> 1 MeV to > 100 MeV) for different years, which compare features of SEP flux during solar maximum and minimum years. The robust DFA scaling exponent of proton fluxes could establish relationships regarding persistency/anti-persistency between the SEPs at different energy levels with respect to solar activity.

Authors: Lewandowski Filip , Hrynkiewicz Rafał , Niedźwiedzka-Rystwej Paulina
Published: May 2024

This study investigates the expression of RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) – RIG-I, MDA5, and LGP2 – in Lagovirus europaeus/GI.2 infections causing Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease. Despite over 30 years of study, the acute pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Lack of in vitro culture systems hampers vaccine development. The experiment, conducted on European rabbits, reveals a significant increase in RLR expression during infection, particularly in organs associated with severe pathology. The findings suggest a pivotal role for RLRs, especially RIG-I, in the host's defense against Lagovirus europaeus. Further research is needed to unravel the complete molecular pathway and associated factors, offering potential insights for therapeutic interventions.

Published: May 2024

Background
The birthplace has long been a source of scholarly debate and societal discourse, with varying recommendations over time among low-risk women. This systematic review and meta-analysis explore the intricate relationship between birthing place, obstetric interventions, and foeto-maternal outcomes in low-risk women in European countries.
Methods
We used our registered protocol (PROSPERO CRD42023439378) and searched seven databases. Cochrane software for systematic reviews (COVIDENCE) was used for full-text screening and extraction. Using RevMan version 5.4.1, we obtained pooled estimates of effect accounting for the level of integration and parity.
Results
The review includes 21 studies involving nearly 750,000 women and discovers no maternal deaths. At the same time, there is limited evidence of statistically significant differences in perinatal mortality by birthplace and parity. Women planning home births have a 76% lower likelihood of Caesarean section in “well-integrated” settings, a 29% lower likelihood of assisted vaginal birth, a 66% lower likelihood of epidural analgesia, and a 59% lower likelihood of retained placenta. In contrast, in “less well-integrated” settings, the likelihood of Caesarean sections rose by 69%, assisted vaginal births by 59%, and 3rd or 4th-degree perineal tears by 63%, and the study does reveal noteworthy trends.
Conclusions
The planned birthplace appears to affect the incidence of obstetric interventions among low-risk women in European countries. While perinatal mortality shows no statistically significant variation, the study highlights distinct outcomes in “well-integrated” versus “less well-integrated” settings, emphasising the importance of birthplace in maternity care decision-making.

Published: May 2024

The evaluation of natural ventilation potential for effective sustainable options and innovative green building design strategies is of great interest to architects, researchers and governments. From a retrospective review, we found that the potential evaluation of natural ventilation (NV) cooling effectiveness in the same category based on similar meteorological uncertainty, research objectives and objects showed significant differences. Uncertainties added and uncertainty propagation (both model form uncertainties and parameter uncertainties) could result in large discrepancies between simulation outcomes and real scenarios, especially in the design performance modeling (DPM) phase. In this conceptual design stage, a few parameters are available and therefore decisive. It is necessary to review and identify the key performance indicators and explore the extent to which deviations are caused by inconsistencies or biases in model information. As a basis for more concrete research, we propose statistical tests based on quantitative evaluations to explore the rule of natural ventilation potential volatility and identify whether there is a significant potential improvement resulting from the critical parameter enhancement with the optimal relationship. The showcase is applied in China, where there has been a significant amount of criticism regarding the current building climate zoning due to the perceived coarseness of the system and where there has been an active exploration into the possibility of redefining building climate zoning with a view toward improving its accuracy and effectiveness.
The effect of anti-thrombotic therapy on cell-free DNA release from first- and third-trimester placental explants: insights into the mechanism of non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT) failures
Authors: Pearce Benjamin JG , De Alwis Natasha , Nguyen Natalie , Beard Sally , Hannan Natalie J , Hui Lisa
Published: May 2024

Objective: Low molecular weight heparins, including enoxaparin, have been associated with increased non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) failures due to low fetal fraction of cell-free (cf) DNA. This study investigated the effect of enoxaparin and antiplatelet therapies on placental tissue in vitro, aiming to determine effects on cfDNA release.
Method: First- and third-trimester human placental explants were treated with graded concentrations of enoxaparin, aspirin, clopidogrel, prasugrel and ticagrelor. Concentrations of cfDNA in the culture media were quantified and relative differences between treated and control samples were assessed using the Student’s T-test. Expression of apoptosis genes BAX and BCL2 was assessed in placental explants by RT-qPCR.
Results: Enoxaparin treatment significantly increased cfDNA release by placental explants (p<0.01). This effect was more pronounced in the first trimester samples. Increase in cfDNA with enoxaparin was not associated with altered expression of apoptosis genes. There was no significant difference in cfDNA release in placental explants cultured with aspirin or newer anti-platelet agents.
Conclusions: Our in vitro results suggest that NIPT failures associated with enoxaparin therapy are unlikely to be mediated by reduced placental cfDNA release. Antiplatelet agents do not have a significant impact on cfDNA release or apoptosis.

Authors: Tokunaga Runa , Sakaki Miki , Kashiwa Satomi , Hayashi Naoko
Published: May 2024

Background
There is a lack of systematic reports on the current status and roles of nurses in rehabilitation that significantly impact the functional prognosis and quality of life of brain tumor patients. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to conduct a scoping review on rehabilitation nursing for brain tumor patients.
Methods
Using the JBI Manual for Evidence Synthesis, this research employed a scoping review design. CINAHL plus and PubMed databases were searched for literature published from 1947 to November 2023. Inclusion criteria covered articles including rehabilitation nursing for brain tumor patients and excluded pediatric studies, case reports, discussion papers, reviews, editorials, and expert opinions. The study is registered with UMIN-CTR (ID: UMIN000053136).
Results
Following the adoption criteria, of the 2748 articles found 19 were selected. The literature selection adheres to PRISMA guidelines. The research designs included two RCTs, five longitudinal intervention studies, three systematic reviews, eight literature reviews, and one questionnaire survey. Among them, 15 articles discussed rehabilitation nursing practices performed by other healthcare professionals, while four articles specifically addressed rehabilitation as one aspect of nursing care for brain tumor patients. The identified aspects were categorized as: information gathering and organization, meaning for the continuation of rehabilitation, prevention and management of secondary complications, family support, and collaboration with other healthcare professionals, all of which were consistently explicated in all studies. Current challenges in rehabilitation nursing included a lack of studies on outcome measurement, insufficient knowledge and skills among nurses, and underdeveloped specialization in the field.
Conclusions
Nurses play a crucial role in collecting patient information and collaborating with healthcare professionals for effective rehabilitation. They address symptoms arising from the disease and treatment, contributing significantly to rehabilitation's effectiveness. However, research on rehabilitation nursing for brain tumor patients is limited, highlighting the need for further development in this area.
Spatial Heterogeneity of Landscapes and Land Cover in Sulawesi Island in Relation to Water Regulation Ecosystem Services
Authors: Nursaputra Munajat
Published: May 2024

The dynamics of land cover changes on Sulawesi Island have been analyzed to assess their impact on water regulation ecosystem services. This research aimed to spatially map the temporal evolution of these services from 1990 to 2022, employing a comprehensive dataset of natural landscapes, vegetation, and land cover patterns. Findings indicate that the island initially maintained a high capacity for water regulation, predominantly classified as high or very high in 1990. However, a significant decline was observed, with the island shifting to predominantly medium classes of water regulation services by 2022. Central and South Sulawesi experienced the most significant decreases in service capacity, while Southeast Sulawesi and Central Sulawesi exhibited some improvement in recent years. The spatial analysis elucidated the interplay between environmental changes and the provision of ecosystem services, emphasizing the profound influence of anthropogenic land cover alterations. The loss of vegetated areas and the increase in agricultural and urbanized land have been linked to the decrease in water regulation services, with direct implications for flood risk, water availability, and watershed health. The study highlights the importance of ecological carrying capacity as an indicator of regional sustainability, reflected in the fluctuating levels of water regulation services. The research concludes that the downward trend in water regulation services necessitates a strategic focus on restoration and conservation efforts to ensure the long-term viability of environmental and human systems. Policymakers are urged to consider these findings in the development of land cover policies, emphasizing the necessity of maintaining ecosystem service levels to support the island's environmental carrying capacity and resilience. Future work should continue to monitor these trends and investigate the efficacy of conservation interventions, thereby contributing to the global understanding of land cover impacts on ecosystem services.
