Anti-corruption preachers: Training for cultural da'wah at the Paguyuban Mubalig Prenggan, Yogyakarta
Authors: Suyadi Suyadi , Waharjani Waharjani , Sumaryati Sumaryati , Sukmayadi Trisna
Published: October 2021

Paguyuban Mubalig Prenggan is an association of anti-corruption preachers under the coordination of the Muhammadiyah Branch Leaders who have cultural assets of karawitan art. Lately, the role of the anti-corruption preacher is very much needed as corruption in Covid-19 funds is increasingly rampant. Ironically, since the Covid-19 pandemic, the anti-corruption cultural da'wah activities of the Paguyuban Mubalig Prenggan have stopped completely. This is due to the lack of mastery of digital technology for virtual da'wah. The purpose of this community service program is to improve virtual cultural da'wah skills as an effort to prevent corruption during the Covid-19 pandemic. The implementation of the activity uses the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method with three stages, namely analysis of the current situation, collaboration of anti-corruption song creations, and virtual anti-corruption cultural propaganda training and assistance. This community service increases the empowerment of partners in three aspects. First, re-activating cultural da'wah which had been completely stopped. Second, the creation of "Anti-corruption Da'wah Gending" as a new material in the practice of musical art with Islamic da'wah nuances to prevent corruption. Third, increasing skills in using digital technology as a virtual da'wah medium to avoid crowds while reaching a wider congregation. This increase in community empowerment further strengthens the Prenggan village as an Anti-Corruption Village which has been selected by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) since 2013. The success of this community service program has serious implications for strengthening public attitudes and knowledge about anti-corruption in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Published: October 2021

Vulnerable groups experience a higher degree of problems, compared to other factions. A typical example involves the limited access to medical care and other support services. Therefore, the role of health workers in this context appears very essential. The Institute of Health Science (STIKES), Mitra Keluarga, conducted an evidence-based community service training for 206 nurses. This study was aimed at increasing the awareness of nurses as spearheads of primary healthcare, particularly on issues faced by vulnerable groups, and the results showed a significant improvement. Furthermore, the ongoing process served as an important effort in supporting these groups during the pandemic and the role of government in creating sustainability is also among the main influencing factors.

Published: October 2021

Chicken eggs are considered an important animal protein source and are easily accessible in terms of availability and affordability, particularly for low-income earners. Trade competition is a major problem facing the egg-based livestock SMEs in Sumberagung village. According to a particular business owner, marketing media is essential in creating more awareness and demands. This enterprise is managed independently, with the support of family members. Therefore, effective management principles are rarely applied. However, observation, discussion and problem-solving methods were employed, in addition to the waterfall system development model. The present research explored the Shopee e-commerce application to design a digital platform to market products and create extensive public awareness. The website also served as a faster medium to manage consumer requests directly. Therefore, the development of information systems is expected to boost SMEs productivity, create a wider product identity and compete favorably with other producers, with the potentials of increasing business profits.

Authors: Zulkifli Afni , Hakim Triono Dul , Amelia Vita
Published: October 2021

Coastal communities are some of the most vulnerable groups to the effects of climate change. The Non-Governmental Organization of the Environmental Malay Youth Institute (LSM IPMPL), a partner of the three villages on Bengkalis Island, has traced the communities’ ignorance of climate change policies to the poor digital literacy of community members. This has had an impact on the involvement of community components and local village governments in climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts. This community service provides assistance, socialization, and training to improve the literacy of the coastal communities of Bengkalis Island, especially as it concerns their access to climate change policies. The results of this activity show an increase in the communities’ knowledge, abilities, skills, and digital awareness of the government's efforts towards forming a climate-resilient society. Furthermore, the activity produced social impact as it increased peace, improved the community's economy and improved the quality of the community's living environment.

Published: October 2021

The purpose of the article is to improve approaches to assessing the effectiveness of innovative activities of the food industry and its individual subsectors to identify prospects for development and problems that can hinder the sustainable development of this area of production and the country as a whole. Research methods. The article uses the methods of theoretical generalizations and comparisons, which made it possible to comprehensively consider and generalize methodological approaches to assessing the effectiveness of innovation in industries. When systematizing the calculated data by the intensity of innovation costs, the methods of statistical classification and grouping were used. To achieve the goal of the study, the methodology for assessing the level of manufacturability of industries has been improved (the OECD methodology is taken as a basis), which made it possible to re-evaluate the effectiveness of innovative activities in sub-sectors of the food industry with an emphasis on the computerization of production. Research results. The article presents a methodical approach to assessing the effectiveness of innovation in the food industry. The study is based on the OECD methodology for assessing the manufacturability of industries, which is to calculate the weighted average cost intensity of R & D. The application of this approach to the food industry has confirmed the too low level of its innovative manufacturability. It was found that due to the lack of relevant statistics on R&D expenditures, it is difficult to assess the effectiveness of innovation in certain sectors of the food industry. It is proposed to solve this problem with the help of capital investment indicators, which are invested in the software of industries and are directly related to the level of computerization of technological processes. The obtained indicators of the intensity of software costs are ranked in descending order and divided into three groups according to the level of computerization, which characterizes the efficiency of innovation, as its level increases profits and profitability in industries. This will contribute to the goals of sustainable development of the country (including goals 2 and 9) and increase the competitiveness of the food industry. Scientific novelty. A methodological approach to assessing the effectiveness of innovative activities of sub-sectors of the food industry in Ukraine is proposed, which will contribute to the formation of a new look at the research methodology of this area of knowledge. Practical significance. Designed for professionals in the field of food industry economics, scientists, teachers, graduate students and students of higher educational institutions. The results of the study can be used by experts to assess the level of manufacturability of industries. Tabl.: 3. Refs.: 30.

Towards optimal ATM cash replenishment using time series analysis
Authors: Rafi Muhammad , Wahab Mohammad Taha , Khan Muhammad Bilal , Raza Hani
Published: October 2021

Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) are still largely used to dispense cash to the customers. ATM cash replenishment is a process of refilling ATM machine with a specific amount of cash. Due to vacillating users demands and seasonal patterns, it is a very challenging problem for the financial institutions to keep the optimal amount of cash for each ATM. In this paper, we present a time series model based on Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) technique called Time Series ARIMA Model for ATM (TASM4ATM). This study used ATM back-end refilling historical data from 6 different financial organizations in Pakistan. There are 2040 distinct ATMs and 18 month of replenishment data from these ATMs are used to train the proposed model. The model is compared with the state-of- the-art models like Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Amazon’s DeepAR model. Two approaches are used for forecasting (i) Single ATM and (ii) clusters of ATMs (In which ATMs are clustered with similar cash-demands). The Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) and Symmetric Mean Absolute Percentage Error (SMAPE) are used to evaluate the models. The suggested model produces far better forecasting as compared to the models in comparison and produced an average of 7.86/7.99 values for MAPE/SMAPE errors on individual ATMs and average of 6.57/6.64 values for MAPE/SMAPE errors on clusters of ATMs.
An Intelligent cognitive sensing and detection strategy for medical telemetry networks
Authors: Surekha S. , Zia Ur Rahman Md.
Published: October 2021

In medical telemetry networks, cognitive radio technology is mostly used to avoid licensed spectrum underutilization and by providing access to unlicensed spectrum users without causing interference to primary users, this concept is widely used in development of smart hospitals and smart cities. In medical telemetry networks frequency spectrum concept is used for providing treatment to patients who are far away from hospitals. In cognitive radios, spectrum sensing concept is used in which energy detection method is mostly used because it is simple to implement. While measuring health care environments using cognitive radios probability detection, false alarm probability and threshold parameters are calculated. In this paper for identifying spectrum holes in spectrum sensing using energy detection, distributed diffusion non-negative least mean square algorithm is proposed. It gives better results compared to energy detection concept alone in terms of probability detection converged earlier. If number of nodes are increasing probability detection is decreased from one and move towards left and its SNR is around 1.5-2 dB with proposed method. Hence simulation results give better results in terms of sensing ability while measuring patient condition.

Mutations in the Anoctamin 5 (Ano5) gene that result in the lack of expression or function of ANO5 protein, cause Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD) 2L/R12, and Miyoshi Muscular Dystrophy (MMD3). However, the dystrophic phenotype observed in patient muscles is not uniformly recapitulated by ANO5 knockout in animal models of LGMD2L. Here we describe the generation of a mouse model of LGMD2L generated by targeted out-of-frame deletion of the Ano5 gene. This model shows progressive muscle loss, increased muscle weakness, and persistent bouts of myofiber regeneration without chronic muscle inflammation, which recapitulates the mild to moderate skeletal muscle dystrophy reported in the LGMD2L patients. We show that these features of ANO5 deficient muscle are not associated with a change in the calcium-activated sarcolemmal chloride channel activity or compromised in vivo regenerative myogenesis. Use of this mouse model allows conducting in vivo investigations into the functional role of ANO5 in muscle health and for preclinical therapeutic development for LGMD2L.

Важность психологического и диетологического наблюдения после бариатрической хирургии: Обзор литературы
Authors: Dendasck Carla Viana , Santos Rogério Bongestab dos , Santos Vitor Maia , Andrade Tadeu Uggere de , Pflug Adriano Ribeiro Meyer
Published: October 2021

Ожирение является многофакторным хроническим заболеванием. У пациента может быть несколько клинических состояний, связанных с ним. Клиническая картина сложная, что может препятствовать применению обычных методов лечения и методов. Бариатрическая хирургия является эффективным долгосрочным лечением этого состояния. Основываясь на обзоре литературы, статья направлена на обсуждение важности пост-бариатрического психологического и пищевого наблюдения. Фундаментальный вопрос, который лежит в основе этого исследования: как типичные стратегии в послеоперационном периоде могут способствовать тому, чтобы человек, перенесающий операцию, придавал большее значение его диете и психическому здоровью? Наиболее эффективной стратегией лечения была бариатрическая хирургия, однако междисциплинарная оценка, которая оценивает биологический, социальный и психологический статус пациента, является фундаментальной, поскольку психопатологические изменения являются общими для людей с ожирением. Хотя бариатрическая хирургия способствует улучшению качества жизни пациентов, необходимо уделять больше внимания послеоперационному лечению. Этим людям следует рекомендовать продолжать диетологическое и психологическое наблюдение в послеоперационном периоде, чтобы можно было предотвратить возможные осложнения в среднесрочной и долгосрочной перспективе.

Introduzione. Aspetti controversi della fragilità territoriale
Authors: Savino Michelangelo
Published: October 2021

Porre l'accento sulla fragilità ha rappresentato, nel corso degli ultimi anni, la decisione di spo-stare lo sguardo verso realtà del territorio che si sono ritrovate ai margini dello sviluppo e per molti versi neglette alle strategie di intervento e di investimento. La crisi finanziaria globale prima e la pandemia dopo, però, mettono in discussione le precedenti distinzioni territoriali e lasciano intravedere insorgenti forme di "fragilità" anche nei territori convenzionalmente con-siderati "robusti". Il concetto di "fragilità" permette di cogliere - con una specifica attenzione - i processi in cor-so, per quanto non aiuti a comprendere immediatamente però come agire e dove agire. Tuttavia, è l'occasione per il futuro di formulare politiche innovative, inclusive e soprattutto alter-native alle strategie, spesso inefficaci, del passato.
Le terre del sisma: dalla ricostruzione alla riabitazione
Authors: De Bonis Luciano
Published: October 2021

L'unità di sopravvivenza "non-fragile", capace di procedere per tentativi ed errori, è costituita dal complesso "organismo-nel-suo-ambiente" ed è assimilabile a una "bioregione urbana" che persegue un equilibrio co-evolutivo fra insediamento umano e ambiente. Fragilità del complesso e fragilità territoriale, quindi, coincidono e la fragilità sismica non è altro che una sua forma. Non si tratta quindi di "ricostruire", bensì di "riabitare" i luoghi soggetti ad evento sismico, tramite la riattivazione di processi coevolutivi basati su economie connesse ai patrimoni territoriali, che solo le "comunità di patrimonio territoriale" possono identificare, produrre e riprodurre. Le politiche territoriali antisismiche prevalenti, e in generale antifragili, sono viceversa tuttora viziate da una sorta di ossessione centralistica e, anche nella loro versione più avanzata (Snai), non riescono ancora ad accedere a un'indispensabile interpretazione autopoietica del paradigma del place-based approach
La partecipazione dei cittadini nei processi di fusione di comuni in veneto: un'occasione mancata?
Authors: Paladini Roberto
Published: October 2021

La review della letteratura di scienze politiche, management pubblico e di sociologia economica sugli articoli e i volumi degli ultimi trent'anni riguardo al riordino territoriale, e nella fattispecie le fusioni tra Comuni, si focalizza prevalentemente sugli aspetti organizzativi e funzionalisti derivanti dall'optimal size, dando poca evidenza alla questione partecipativa, prevista dall'attuale norma di riferimento, che, come evidenziato da alcuni autori, appare più uno strumento di legittimazione sociale delle politiche pubbliche di riassetto amministrativo che di reale coinvolgimento dei cittadini. Alla luce dell'obiettivo della ricerca, atto ad analizzare la portata di processi partecipativi nell'ambito dell'iter di fusione di Comuni, l'articolo si concentra sui processi di fusione e i relativi studi di fattibilità realizzati in Veneto dal 2013 al 2018, provando a verificare se vi sono stati reali rapporti di partecipazione e di coinvolgimento della cittadinanza che, comunque, è tenuta a esprimersi attraverso il referendum consultivo.
Towards an online approach to university public engagement: An exploratory analysis of website content
Authors: Marino Vittoria , Lo Presti Letizia
Published: October 2021

Public engagement has been the focus of great attention of universities, ever since a strong social orientation has driven these institutions to open up more towards their territories and to assume an active and propulsive role in their development. In this context, web sites constitute a valid instrument for the valorisation and permeability of generated knowledge by making scientific research visible and comprehensible and thus enhancing its image and loyalty towards its stakeholders. This present work investigates the construct of online public engagement in the university ambit through an analysis of institutional websites taken from a sample of 86 Anglo-Saxon universities that have already developed a greater sense of awareness on this subject. This work contributes to the investigation of the approaches that universities are using to give online visibility to the activity of public engagement, outlining differences in the managerial approaches to public engagement in both public and private sectors.
Service Quality, Behavioural Intentions and Lipstick effect. Evidence from a Masstige context
Authors: Mason Michela C. , Moretti Andrea , Raggiotto Francesco
Published: October 2021

This paper explores the role of the "Lipstick effect" on consumers' decisions, from a managerial perspective. The chosen research context is New Luxury (Silverstein and Fiske, 2003). During hard economic times, people tend to buy less expensive prestige goods. This "Lipstick effect", first observed in cosmetics, has been noticed in major downturns such as the Great Depression, and the 2008 crisis (Hill, 2012). This paper considers masstige goods as a visible market response to the Lipstick effect. To explore the impact of Lipstick effect, this paper uses income as a moderating variable on the linkage between the major components of service quality and behavioural intentions, in a New Luxury context. 488 questionnaires have been collected within stores of an Italian jewellery retail chain. Results show that perception of store atmosphere still appears to be stronger for higher income consumers; lower-income consumers put a greater emphasis on more material attributes of the offering (i.e., staff interaction).
Sclerosi multipla online: un'analisi delle narrazioni dell'esperienza di sclerosi multipla (sm) tra illness e health blog
Authors: Margherita Giorgia , Gargiulo Anna , Caffieri Alessia
Published: October 2021

All'interno del panorama dell'e-health, la letteratura si è rivolta di recente ai blog quali spazi narrativi autobiografici che, in un continuum tra illness e health, rappresentano dei dispositivi narrativi preziosi nell'elaborazione dell'esperienza di malattia. In particolare, la sclerosi multipla (sm), quale malattia degenerativa cronica, spinge ad una continua risignificazione della propria esperienza. Ancora pochi sono oggi gli studi che hanno indagato l'esperienza di sm così come viene narrata all'interno dei blog. L'obiettivo dello studio è stato esplorare i temi presenti nei blog scritti da persone con sclerosi multipla individuando quali differenze esistono nella narrazione dell'esperienza di ma-lattia in base al tempo della comunicazione della diagnosi. Sono stati analizzati 7 blog scritti da donne con sm, che avevano ricevuto la diagnosi in età giovanile e in età adulta. Dall'analisi sono emersi quattro cluster tematici che sono stati proiettati sul piano fattoriale e letti attraverso tre vettori di senso: Il processo di integrazione dell'esperienza di sm nella propria identità; La narrazione online di malattia come strategia di agency; Riorganizzazione della relazione tra sé e altro. Dalla nostra ricerca, il blog si attesta come organizzatore di senso e risorsa in termini di miglioramento del benessere e promozione della salute nell'esperienza di convivenza con la malattia. .
Pornography use, sexual behaviours, and emotional intelligence in italian adolescents
Authors: Capurso Michele , Federici Stefano , Palomba Riccardo , D’Urzo Eleonora
Published: October 2021

Sexually explicit material (SEM) is easily accessed by adolescents. This cross-sectional study examined the characteristics of 413 Italian adolescents (aged 17-22, 55% female) who use SEM. We examined the associations of SEM use with relationship status, religiosity, and emotional intelligence. All of the respondents reported accessing SEM while underage, with males using SEM more than females and accessing SEM at an earlier age; earlier exposure to SEM was also found to influence later SEM use. The reasons for watching pornography also differed be-tween the genders. There was a partial connection between the EQ-I:YV, SEM use, and recent sexual activity. The gender differences in terms of the prevalence and reasons for the use of SEM may be connected to a more general gender cultural stereotype.
Come si pensa e si organizza la fine di una psicoterapia?
Authors: Tosi Silvia , Meriaux Mathilde , Rimini Thea , Denis Jennifer
Published: October 2021

La ricerca qualitativa svolta mira a indagare il vissuto e le azioni del terapeuta al momento della fine di una psicoterapia. Il campione è costituito da tre psicoterapeute belghe che sono state incontrate singolarmente nel contesto di un'intervista di esplicitazione. I risultati ottenuti hanno permesso di osservare che un fattore indispensabile per poter concludere bene una psicoterapia è la presenza di una buona alleanza terapeutica. Inoltre, è stato possibile osservare che le terapeute intervistate hanno co-costruito insieme ai rispettivi pazienti la chiusura della terapia e ciò ha favorito il processo di separazione. È stato possibile osservare che la chiusura di una psicoterapia è un momento importante del percorso clinico. Inoltre, se la conclusione della terapia è preparata ed elaborata per tempo insieme al paziente, egli può avere la possibilità di sfruttare al meglio tale processo e di viverlo come un'apertura verso nuove possibilità ed esperienze.
Long-term financial sustainability: An evaluation methodology with threats considerations
Authors: Guryanova Lidiya , Bolotova Olena , Gvozdytskyi Vitalii , Olena Sergienko
Published: October 2021

It is shown that one of the directions for increasing the efficiency of managing corporate systems (CS) under the influence of a large number of destabilizing fa-tors ("shocks", threats) is the development of a set of models of estimation and analysis of the long-term stability of CS in proactive contour of management, which allow timely diagnosing a decrease in the company's security level and adopting effective preventive management decisions. A review of existing approa-ches to the formation of such a set of models showed a number of limitations, the result of which is a low forecasting accuracy. The proposed approach, unlike the existing ones, allows to: 1) determine the optimal dimension of the information space of diagnostic factors; 2) find the optimal number of classes of situations for which differentiated management strategies can be developed; 3) determine the period of pre-emption, which does not require updating the models of retrospective diagnostics. This makes it possible to identify the class of not only current, but also forecast situations for a given horizon of proactive management and to choose an adequate preventive strategy.
For a New Ecological Thought
Authors: Franz Gianfranco
Published: October 2021

The essay investigates the trajectory of the notion of sustainability, starting from the founding moments of the ecological thought and the environmental crisis. The author highlights the substantial failure of culture and policies for sustainable de-velopment and the limited contribution of humanistic, social, and arts disciplines to the construction of a different relationship between human beings and the envi-ronment. The backwards cultural path, to the rediscovery of ecologized and trans-disciplinary thought, ends with an analysis of research and dominant educational models.
Incentive-based policy to promote the production of geothermal power from carbon tax scheme: A case of Indonesian CGE model
Authors: Wibert Herbert , Hasudungana Victor , Sjahril Sabaruddinb Sulthon
Published: October 2021

Indonesia has the largest geothermal potential resources in the world, however, its current utilization rate is about 6% of total geothermal potential. This paper investigates the impact of imposing the carbon taxation on fossil fuels and the tax is then allocated to incentivize the geothermal electricity supply. The results show that carbon taxation can effectively reduce the national GHG emissions. In the scenario of imposing the carbon tax only on coal consumption, the economy tends to improve better than imposing the tax on all types of fossil fuels. This finding indicates that the policy could only reduce the total production cost of electricity supply, but cannot offset the increased price of fossil fuels due to carbon tax. Our analysis also shows that a revenue-recycling scheme of carbon tax on coal uses by reducing the electricity price will lead to welfare improvements and inequality reductions since coal is only consumed in the industrial sector.

The article considers the psychological and legal problems of ensuring human rights. It has been established that the problem of protecting human rights is in the first place in the world. Violation of the psychological comfort of a person can occur in various spheres of life (production, exchange, consumption, distribution, etc.). At the same time, the psychological and legal aspect of ensuring human rights is worrisome, because around this problem there are a considerable number of unresolved issues, in particular at the legislative level. Attention is focused on the fact that the problem of disturbing the psychological balance of modern man lies mainly in the globalized component of the modern way of people's lives. It is specified that the problem of ensuring human rights can be solved by a consensus of both psychologists, legal scholars, and public organizations as well. At the same time, a person can resort to self-adaptive self-regulation. The prospects for further research are to explore the possibilities of securing the psychological and legal sup-port of human rights at the legislative level.

The relevance of the study is determined by the fact that in order to improve the legislation of the country, it is necessary to study the successful experience of other countries. The purpose of the study is to propose a number of measures that will help improve labour legislation in Kazakhstan. The work uses primarily the analytical method. It is determined by the fact that apart from statutory labour protection rules, some safety standards are contained in collective agreements that speci-fy and sometimes supplement relevant legislative provisions. The paper states the fact that it is necessary to factor in world experience in organizing and operating a system of supervision and control over compliance with labour legislation for the Republic of Kazakhstan. The novelty of the study is that with a study of the legislation on labour regulation in Western countries, the authors identify a number of measures that will be relevant for implementation in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The practical significance of the study is determined by the incompatibility of iso-lation from the outside world, including from the international labour market with objectives of development.

The purpose of the article is to analyze the causes of political conflicts in world his-tory and ways to solve them. The novelty of the study is determined by the fact that political conflict is understood as an attempt to overcome the stagnation of the development of the state or society as a whole. This study is based on the use of a set of approaches, norms, directions of various industries, and theoretical and methodological developments of different authors, in addition, the authors independently determined their own specific approaches, conceptual foundations and author understanding of a particular study. The authors show that overcoming a political conflict is possible both by coordinating the positions of various political forces and by external coercion in an armed conflict. The article shows that when using methods of external conflict resolution, political agreements in the country are completely leveled, and at the same time, the creation of a new political field is required. The practical significance of the study is determined by the fact that the use of local conflict resolution methods will fully implement state development strategies that will contribute to the formation of a sustainable society.

National culture is determined primarily by the fact that each of its individuals shares the beliefs and values that are inherent in a particular territory. At the same time, global economic and technological exchange form an environment that al-lows people to participate in cultural exchange and expand the boundaries of national culture or limit the penetration of foreign language culture into society. The relevance of the study is determined by the fact that the formation of national cul-ture is possible and as a protective mechanism for identifying one's identity. The aim of the article is to reveal the features of the formation of national culture with-in the framework of integration associations and integration into the structure of social development. The authors conducted an analysis of the essence of geocul-ture, generalized interpretations of the concept of "strategy", and proposed a defi-nition of the category "geocultural strategy". Geo-culture is determined by the main factor in the development of intercultural dialogue on the platform of economic, social and legal discourse.

In the context of this, the aim of the article was to carry out a comprehensive comparative analysis of the legal regulation of practice of law in the territories of the Member States of the European Union and the Commonwealth of Independent States. The author's developments and conclusions resulting from scientific and legal research are summarised as follows: international and national law consolidates different approaches to the practice of law; the legal regulation of the process of entering into the profession of lawyer and the subsequent exercise of his lawyer's activity in the territory of the European Union has more detailed elaboration in the context of the realities of modern legal relations in comparison with Commonwealth of Independent States countries; a comparative analysis showed that a model of practice of law, regulated by the legislation of the French Republic, can be considered the most approximate to the idealistic.

Islands, islets, and guano capes provide a unique variety of habitats for seabirds. Their variability determines the structure and dynamics of the community. Studies about the temporal diversity and habitat use of these systems in southern Peru are lacking. The aim of this study was to analyze the abundance, composition, and behavior of seabirds at Punta La Metalera (El Faro) in the province of Islay in the Arequipa region of southern Peru. We recorded a total of 12 species. One of these is endemic to the Peruvian coast (Cinclodes taczanowskii), one is considered in endangered (Spheniscus humboldti), and four have been assigned near threatened status (Phalacrocorax gaimardi, Pelecanus thagus, Sula variegata and Larosterna inca). Some of these birds belong to the guano bird group. Laridae was the most abundant family due to Larosterna inca, which showed the highest number of individuals. Temporal variation showed that species were most abundant in December and January. The habitat was mainly used for resting, preening, and feeding. However, nesting was also recorded for six species. Based on the little information previously available for this region our findings indicate that Punta La Metalera is an important area for the development and reproduction of some of the species recorded.
