Intellectual Potential of Kyrgyzstan
Authors: Komleva V. V.
Published: December 2024

The article is a study of the intellectual potential of Kyrgyzstan, its state and development opportunities. The author proposes a methodology for analyzing intellectual potential based on five groups of criteria: standard indicators of international rankings and indices (human development index, innovative development index, Hirsch index); the state of the socio-cultural environment for the development of intellectual potential; the state of the educational infrastructure for the development of intellectual potential; the level of scientific impetus (the presence of scientific infrastructure and scientific community, scientific elite); state support for science (expenditures on scientific research and development work, state strategies for the development of science and education). Based on the analysis of statistical data and government documents, the most vulnerable areas of the development of the country’s intellectual potential are identified: insufficient environment for the development of intellectual potential, insufficient scientific impetus, insufficient availability and quality of educational infrastructure, insufficient conditions and opportunities for the reproduction and development of the intellectual elite, in particular the scientific elite of the country. It is concluded that Kyrgyzstan has not yet formed the institutional foundations of a unified scientific policy that would contribute to solving the problems of innovative development of the country and ensuring its scientific and technological sovereignty.
Combating Manipulation and Encouraging Destructive Behavior as an Element of Political and Legal Culture
Authors: Bazavluk S. V. , Kovalev A. A.
Published: December 2024

Negative spiritual and moral impact can be one of the manifestations of information confrontation within the framework of a hybrid war and can become a threat to the national security of modern Russia. This can be an impact on the political and legal culture of Russians through manipulation and encouragement of destructive behavior. The purpose of the study is to propose a system of measures to counter the threat of negative spiritual and moral impact. The axiological method was chosen as the main research method. Manipulation is considered as part of the strategy of opponents of modern Russia represented by the collective West, the encouragement of destructive behavior is a recognizable element of the policy of Westernization of culture, under the influence of which Russia has been for several decades. Counteraction to this threat should be comprehensive and based on both political and legal measures. Particular attention is paid to the consideration of measures to overcome the consequences of manipulation and encouragement of destructive behavior among Russians. Political measures and legal initiatives of the Federation Council of the Russian Federation, the State Duma of the Russian Federation and the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation are separately highlighted. The degradation of culture will inevitably lead to the degeneration of the nation, the loss of its national image, self-identity, sovereignty and support in life. Only joint efforts and responsibility of the state and society can lead to a positive result in the fight against manipulation and the encouragement of destructive behavior and form a developed and mature political and legal culture.
D.Trump's Presidential Team on the Eve of the 2024 Elections: Who are They?
Authors: Kochegurov D. A.
Published: December 2024

The author of the article reflects on the candidates for leading positions in the US government in the event of D.Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential election and presents assessments of these candidates by American experts. The author relies on media materials and official statements by D.Trump. The candidates are classified according to the positions they currently hold. Particular attention is paid to the vice-presidential candidates, primarily J.Vance, as well as the main ideologists of Trumpism and representatives of the radical wing of the Republican Party to analyze the domestic political dynamics in the United States. Female candidates for the post of vice president are considered separately. The candidates’ position is presented not only through their domestic political and domestic interests, but also through their attitude towards Russia. It is concluded that the core of D.Trump’s team is made up of political realists who demonstrate loyalty to him and the MAGA movement, prone to national populist rhetoric.
USA: Political Elites Fragmentation and Russian-American Dialogue Prospects
Authors: Travkina N. M.
Published: December 2024

Over the past 30–35 years, the United States has seen an increase in research into the role and transformation of American elites, including the political elite. In the second half of the 20th century, in the context of a bipolar world, the main focus was on the importance of social movements as a key factor determining the mechanism and specifics of the functioning of the political system. But as globalization processes increased, power groups began to play a major role, which de facto began to call themselves elites, i.e. a select part of society that significantly differs from other social strata and groups in terms of wealth, level of education, access to a wide range of privileges and other features. From a political and sociological perspective, studying elites, unlike studying mass movements, is more difficult due to the closed nature of most elite groups, as well as the vagueness and uncertainty of their social boundaries. In addition, the United States, as the richest country in the Western world, has begun to transform elite groups and turn them into oligarchs. In parallel, the liberal part of the American political elite came to the conclusion about the necessity of transforming the traditional white elite of American society, known as “white Anglo-Saxon Protestants”, into a “colored” elite of American society, consisting of a wide range of racial and ethnic groups and strata. As a consequence of the processes of “colorization” of the American political elite, its fragmentation began, which at present has taken the form of a fierce struggle between the old white elite and the multiracial and multiethnic elite that is replacing it. In the conditions of the competitive struggle for survival, the opportunities for Russian-American dialogue, which for most of the existence of our countries was in the mainstream of interstate relations, and not within the framework of inter-elite communications, have sharply narrowed.

Este artigo discute a interdisciplinaridade como uma ferramenta essencial no campo da saúde e da educação pública, com base na Teoria da Complexidade de Edgar Morin. A tradicional abordagem fragmentada, que separa os conhecimentos em disciplinas isoladas, não atende às demandas e complexidades contemporâneas, que exigem soluções integradas e sistêmicas. A interdisciplinaridade, ao promover o diálogo entre diferentes campos do saber, facilita a construção de práticas mais inclusivas, humanizadas e adaptativas, que respondem melhor às dinâmicas da sociedade moderna. Na promoção da saúde, essa abordagem permite intervenções que consideram as inter-relações entre aspectos sociais, psicológicos, biológicos e ambientais. Na educação, ela incentiva métodos de ensino que contemplam a formação de sujeitos capazes de pensar criticamente e interconectar conhecimentos diversos. No contexto das políticas públicas, uma abordagem interdisciplinar proporciona uma visão mais abrangente e holística dos fenômenos, considerando as múltiplas interações entre fatores sociais, culturais, biológicos e educacionais que impactam diretamente a saúde e o aprendizado. Este trabalho visa demonstrar como a colaboração entre disciplinas, sustentada pelos princípios da complexidade, pode oferecer soluções mais abrangentes e eficazes para os desafios contemporâneos, potencializando a inovação e a adaptação em práticas e políticas de saúde e educação.

EfficientDense-ViT: APT Detection via Hybrid Deep Learning Framework with Hybrid Dipper Throated Sine Cosine Optimization Algorithm (HDT-SCO)
Authors:   Chief Information Security Officer, General organization for Social Insurance, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Khaled Khaled
Published: December 2024

Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) are intelligent, sophisticated cyberattacks that frequently evade detection by gradually interfering with vital systems or focusing on sensitive data. It is proposed herein the new approach of the Hybrid Dipper Throated Sine Cosine Optimization Algorithm (HDT-SCO) for APT detection in association with the EfficientDense-ViT model. It handles the class imbalance issue with advanced processing Adaptive Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (ADASYN), including min-max scaling for normalization, and median imputation for missing values. In terms of feature engineering, ResNet-152 and Symbolic Aggregate Approximation (SAX) are adopted for statistical, deep, and time series feature extraction. HDT-SCO optimizes the selection of relevant features to refine by integrating into it the three approaches: PCA, RFE, RF Feature Importance, and L1 Regularization (Lasso). Compared to current detection techniques, the best detection model shows high performance and efficiency through the hybrid deep learning model known as EfficientDense-ViT, which is a combination of EfficientNet, DenseNet, and Vision Transformers (ViT) that can detect APTs reliably. This method shows considerable improvement in both accuracy (0.98741 for the 7030 split and 0.99143 for the 8020 split) and efficiency as compared to existing models in the detection of APTs in cybersecurity.

How Education Shapes Trust: Empirical Evidence from China
Authors: Wang Xingqi
Published: December 2024

The general assumption in the mainstream social capital theory states a likely causal relationship between education and trust in people, while such a conclusion might be contextual. Using the CGSS data and employing a fuzzy regression-discontinuity design where the compulsory education law (1986) in China is taken as an exogenous instrument, I find a positive correlation between education and the level of generalized trust. Further, with respect to another measure of trustthe radius of trust, I find no evidence supportive to significant correlations between education and trust in different distant social groups. However, the second-stage results do not suggest any likely causal effect from education on generalized trust or trust in different relationships, which indicates the OLS results might suffer from omitted variable bias.

Published: December 2024

The increasing demand for biofuels has driven the Brazilian sugarcane industry to expand into degraded pasture areas with low organic matter content and fertility. Traditionally, sugarcane is cultivated in sandy soils, and after five or more harvest cycles, field reform involves conventional tillage, followed by sugarcane planting in the exposed soil. However, the introduction of cover crops during this reform period has shown soil fertility benefits, although research on soil microbiology impacts is limited. This study aimed to evaluate soil microbiological attributes and sugarcane productivity following the implementation of three different reform systems in a sandy Ultisol. The three systems assessed were conventional planting in exposed soil and field reform using either soybean or Crotalaria spectabilis. Ten samples were randomly collected from a 10-hectare plot at a depth of 0.00–0.10 m, near the planting furrow, for each management system. The samples were analyzed for organic carbon, microbial biomass carbon, total glomalin, easily extractable glomalin, and sugarcane productivity. Data were subjected to an analysis of variance and means were compared using Tukey’s test. The findings indicate that cultivating C. spectabilis before planting sugarcane enhances soil health and mitigates the impacts of agricultural practices. This improvement is attributed to higher levels of microbial biomass carbon, easily extractable glomalin, and total glomalin, which contribute to increased sugarcane productivity.
História da literatura marginal e periférica: notas preliminares para uma micro-história literária nos territórios vulnerabilizados
Authors: Sales Jucelino de
Published: December 2024

A ligação e interdependência terminológica entre os dois termos – marginal e periférica – como disputa conceitual para nominar a literatura produzida em territórios vulnerabilizados consiste em horizonte teórico tanto para contestar o território extremamente homogêneo da literatura de cânone, como para demarcar um posicionamento político e estético em defesa da ampliação da atividade literária. Disputar o conceito de literatura marginal e periférica e explicitar sua densidade histórica, sua partilha sensível e seu fazer participativo constitui visada necessária para o revisionismo e a reformulação da ideia ultrapassada de literatura nacional depositária dos velhos e antiquados manuais de literatura. Constitui também a atualização do modus operandi para a renovação de uma história da literatura brasileira baseada no direito político à literatura, com legitimidade e bem-estar de promoção à saúde, e em defesa da fluida diversidade literária. E abre-se o campo para a apresentação e representação de uma micro-história literária da literatura marginal e periférica.

Published: December 2024

This quantitative study aimed to identify the level of academic performance among senior high school students in terms of synchronous, asynchronous, and modular learning modalities. Furthermore, the study aimed to determine if there is a significant difference in academic performance as analyzed according to types of learning modalities. Descriptive-comparative was utilized to answer the research questions with 362 respondents under the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics strand. The findings showed that students under synchronous got a higher mean with outstanding descriptive equivalent, and students under asynchronous and modular got a very satisfactory descriptive equivalent. The result implied that students who chose synchronous classes gained higher grades than those who chose the other two learning modalities. This further indicates that synchronous classes have effectively delivered lessons and led to students’ higher academic performance. Modular to Asynchronous and Modular to Synchronous have .000 significant differences, and Asynchronous to Synchronous has 0.006. This result implied a significant difference among the types of learning modalities. Regarding participant’s personal information, sex, and parental support, they had no significant moderating effects on their academic performance as analyzed according to types of learning modalities. In contrast, school support had significant moderating effects on academic performance as analyzed according to types of learning modalities. Hence, this study recommended that the school continue offering online classes and strategize plans for modular students for a better educational outcome.

Ülkemizin özellikle yoğun yapılaşma özelliği gösteren kentlerinde, toplanma alanı olma potansiyeli taşıyan kentsel açıklıkların niteliksel ve niceliksel olarak yetersiz kaldığı açıktır. Afet esnası ve sonrasında toplanma alanlarının hayati bir işlevi olduğu düşünüldüğünde, kentsel alanlarda olası bir afet durumuna karşı toplanma alanlarının konumlarının stratejik olarak planlanması gerekmektedir. Dirençli kentler, doğal ve beşeri afetlere maruz kalmayan kentler değildir; aksine, olağanüstü koşulların oluşması durumuna hazırlıklı olan ve kısa sürede rasyonel çözümler üretebilen kentlerdir. 6 Şubat 2023 tarihinde gerçekleşen ve önemli kayıpların meydana geldiği Kahramanmaraş Depremleri’nde izlendiği üzere, aktif fay hatlarının geçtiği bölgelere ve sorunlu dolgu alanlarına ilişkin yapılaşma kararları, iklim değişikliğinin olumsuz etkilerini dikkate almayan bir planlama anlayışı, toplanma alanlarına yönelik hızlı ve yüksek yoğunluklu yapılaşma süreçleri gibi belli başlı faktörlere bağlı olarak afetlerin yıkıcı etkileri yerleşim alanlarında katlanarak artmaktadır. Çalışmada Kahramanmaraş Depremleri’ni önemli ölçüde etkileyen Hatay ilinde Hatay İl Afet ve Acil Durum Müdürlüğü tarafından belirlenmiş olan toplanma alanlarının kapasite yeterlilik durumlarının ve erişilebilirliklerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem olarak ise Coğrafi Bilgi Sistemleri’nin uygulama alanlarından biri olan Network Analizi yöntemi seçilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, Hatay ilinde mevcut toplanma alanlarının kapasitelerinin afet anı ve sonrasında nüfusun ihtiyacını karşılamaya yeterli olmadığı ve söz konusu alanların erişilebilirlik açısında sıkıntılı olduğu saptanmıştır.

Authors: P. Muragod Mr. Rahul , H.Y Dr. PRASHANTHA
Published: December 2024

According to the latest data, the construction sector is one of the second largest employment generation sectors
with 71 million workers’ force and Indian construction workers are listed under the unorganized sector. The
Ministry of Labor and Employment launched the e-sharam portal for unorganized sector workers which helps them
to get awareness about the social security schemes. It is the first database in India that covers migrant workers, gig
workers, construction workers, and migrant workers. However, it is crucial to study the status of social security
among migrant construction workers. The main intention of this paper is to understand the status of social security
among migrant construction workers in India. The present paper focuses on the latest literature related to social
security especially related to migrant workers. The methodology adopted by the researcher is the secondary data.
The finding of the study reveals that workers will only know information about social security through the welfare
boards, workers who work on sites, and eighty percent of workers are not conscious about social security
privileges. Meanwhile, the socioeconomic condition of workers was poor and factors like education level, and
monthly income were very poor, the average monthly income was less than five thousand rupees per month. A few
prominent studies were conducted on comparative studies comparing their economic status before and after their
migration and it was found that the economic condition has improved when they have migrated from their place to
some other place for livelihood.
Keywords- Social security, Migrant construction workers, Unorganised sector, Socio-economic conditions.
Influence of Mass Irregularities on the Seismic Behavior of Multi-Storied Using STAAD.Pro Connect Edition
Authors: KUMAR AITARAJU PRAVEEN , SAMHITHA KATUKOORI VEDA
Published: December 2024

The seismic behavior of multi-story buildings
is greatly influenced by their structural configuration.
Irregularities in plan or elevation, particularly mass
irregularities, are critical factors contributing to structural
failure during earthquakes. Proper identification and
management of such irregularities are essential to
optimize a building's functionality and aesthetics.
This study examines the seismic response of a G+14
reinforced concrete (RC) frame structure with and
without mass irregularity. The analysis focuses on storey
drift, storey displacement, lateral loads, maximum
bending moments, and shear forces. A swimming pool
placed on the 7th floor introduces a heavy mass, creating
mass irregularity as per IS 1893 (Part 1):2016, where a
floor’s seismic weight exceeds 150% of the floors above
and below.
Using STAAD.Pro Connect Edition software, the
structures are analysed through dynamic response
spectrum analysis. The residential building, with
dimensions of 35.45 m × 30.56 m, is subjected to seismic
loads according to IS code standards. Results indicate that
the inclusion of mass irregularity significantly impacts
the seismic response, leading to notable variations in drift,
displacement, and internal force distribution.
This study highlights the importance of addressing mass
irregularities in seismic design to ensure structural safety
and performance in earthquake-prone areas.

Reliability of C-ADAS and the importance of the acceleration function for cycling safety
Authors: Junghans Marek , Zhang Meng , Saul Hagen , Leich Andreas
Published: December 2024

Driving characteristics of bicyclists and motorists differ significantly in critical, uncritical and unaffected situations in road traffic. When bicyclists cross the path of right-turning motorists, bicyclists seem to mitigate conflicts that can develop into crashes, while motorists seem to avoid non-critical but close interactions that can develop into conflicts. This is one of the key findings of the evaluation of a recently developed and successfully tested cooperative driver assistance system (C-ADAS) that warns right-turning motorists of potential collisions. The warning is given by a special traffic light, which we called ‘amber light’, lighting up only in dangerous situations. Whether a situation becomes dangerous or not is determined by a decision tree, fed by the measured kinematics and specific surrogate measures of safety of the interacting road users. Most notably, the results demonstrate that criticality can be rated by measuring anticipation (or surprise) by computing the cross-power spectrum and applying entropy metric on the acceleration functions of the road users. However, one of the outcomes is that the time for the road users to perceive the amber light state might be too low to react properly. These findings can be used to improve the performance of such a C-ADAS.
Milton Santos / Philosophe du mondial, citoyen du local
Authors: Lévy Jacques
Published: December 2024

Milton Santos (1926-2001) fut l'un des principaux artisans du renouvellement de la géographie de 1975 à 2000, notamment en Amérique latine et dans le monde francophone. Ce géographe brésilien, 'citoyen du monde', replaça sa discipline dans le champ des sciences sociales, en participant activement à la reconstruction d'une démarche intellectuelle cohérente en géographie et en encourageant le dialogue entre concepts géographiques, d'une part, social theory et épistémologie, de l'autre. À travers l'analyse de la circulation des techniques, il a aussi adopté une posture critique originale, à la fois engagée et distanciée, à propos de ce qu'on n'appelait pas encore alors la mondialisation. Dans cet ouvrage, Jacques Lévy décrypte l'itinéraire et les idées essentielles de Santos, avant de commenter brièvement onze de ses textes, qui manifestent tout à la fois la grande diversité des thèmes et la continuité du message.
Prevalence of Low Back Pain Among Bank Workers in Peshawar, Pakistan

Published: December 2024

Low back pain (LBP) is estimated to affect 90% of the global population and is considered the most common reason for functional disability worldwide. The objective of the present study was to measure the severity of back pain according to the visual analog scale (VAS), to identify the prevalence of LBP among bank workers, and to determine the primary risk factors of low back pain among bank workers. This study was submitted to and approved by the Institutional Research Committee (IRC) - NCS University System, Islamabad, Pakistan. A quantitative, cross-sectional research design was employed in this study. Data were only collected from those participants, who were willing and met our inclusion criteria after approval from the graduate committee of the NCS- University system. Before the collection of data, permission was taken from the respective participants. Conveniently 405 participants among the bank workers were collected from various banks in Peshawar, Pakistan. The instruments used include a direct interview, a body discomfort assessment tool that consists of a VAS) and a questionnaire. Data was collected by mixed type questionnaire and confidentiality of information and voluntary participation were ensured by the researcher. Data were numerically coded and captured in Excel, using an SPSS 25 version program. The study's findings provide a baseline of information about the prevalence of back pain among bank workers. It was found that 65.6% of the workers had experienced LBP, with males (80.7%) being more vulnerable than females (19.3%). The most affected age range was 25-38 years, which constitutes the largest proportion of the workforce. This high prevalence in such a significant age group could negatively impact a company's productivity. The study also revealed that the prevalence of back pain was highest among those with job experience of more than three years (69.9%), followed by those with 1-2 years of experience (23.3%), and the least among those with less than one year of experience (6.8%).

Aquesta nota fa referència a la sessió celebrada a Tolouse sobre geografia i medi ambient amb motiu de l'homenatge al professor G. Bertrand per haver-li estat atorgada la medalla honorifica al seu treball d'investigació pel CNRS. S'hi ha intentat reflectir els punts més importants tractats en la discussió. El debat va ser molt enriquidor, atesa la participació heterogènia dels assistents i participants. Un tema central va unir tots els presents: el repte d'adaptació tant pedagògica com d'investigació de la geografia i, en particular, de la geografia física, enfront de la problemàtica mediambiental.

George Perkins Marsh (1801-1882) i la seva obra, especialment la monumental Man and Nature, són un precedent avui dia de la geografia ambiental. Els seus plantejaments innovadors i les seves conclusions anticipatòries continuen vigents en l'estudi de la problemàtica relació societat-medi, malgrat l'oblit en què caigueren els seus escrits durant dècades. L'anàlisi de la metodologia i temàtica que empri és una necessitat, on es fa avinent que la geografia, com a disciplina integradora, pot recollir els seus plantejaments per respondre als reptes actuals que té plantejats la humanitat respecte a la problemàtica de la seva acció sobre el medi del planeta.

Cap a mitjan segle XIX, van proliferar a tot Europa galeries i cases per a banys marítims, als quals s'atribuïa uns llocs específics, on incidien tant practiques socials com consideracions mèdiques i estètiques. Aquests espais constitueixen un exemple remarcable per a la comprensió dels processos i les estratègies territorials d'integració i articulació històriques dels espais d'oci litorals.
Per mitjà de l'exemple concret d'una regió espanyola, Cantàbria, s'aborda l'estudi del balnearisme costaner com a fenomen d'interès geogràfic. Per a aquesta finalitat hom es detindrà en el context històric i científic, que va donar lloc a la seva integració social, basada en funcions curatives i de lleure. Després d'analitzar les fonts d'estudi, els aspectes legislatius i les tipologies dels establiments, s'arriba a la conclusió final, la producció final dels espais de platja.

Komoditas ikan hias salah satu penopang perekonomian di Indonesia. budidaya ikan hias yang populer yaitu budidaya koi. Ikan koi hidup di air tawar beriklim sedang. Koi dewasa memiliki panjang 100 cm dan berat 13kg. Pertumbuhan dipengaruhi kualitas pakan yang tinggi, selain pakan kualitas air berperan penting untuk pertumbuhan koi. Kualitas air kolam dapat menurun dikarenakan pemberian pakan yang tinggi sehingga kotoran dan pakan terlarut dan tercemarnya air menyebabkan koi terserang penyakit atau bahkan mati. Masalah dari pembudidaya atau komunitas, keterbatasan media filtrasi, ketidaktahuan kualitas air sehingga setiap hari mengukur langsung ke kolam membawa alat ukur, setelah melakukan pengukuran harus melakukan kalibrasi ulang dan itu sangat merepotkan. Dari permasalahan, didapatkan sebuah sistem untuk memantau kualitas air menggunakan aplikasi android yang dapat mengirim notifikasi jika parameter air tidak sesuai dengan ketentuan, dan dengan adanya sistem apakah dapat mempengaruhi pertumbuhan koi dengan cara melakukan perbandingan antara kolam yang dipasangkan sistem dengan kolam yang tidak dipasangkan sistem. Setelah penelitian yang dilakukan selama tiga bulan didapatkan bahwa kolam yang dipasangkan sistem, laju pertumbuhan panjang dan berat koi mengalami pertumbuhan yang signifikan dibandingkan kolam yang tidak dipasangkan sistem. Serta kelangsungan hidup pada kedua kolam dengan perbandingan 80% dengan 40%. Sehingga dapat membantu pertumbuhan pada koi.

Tingkat pertumbuhan penduduk berpengaruh pada volume sampah yang berasal dari hasil konsumsi penduduk. Semakin meningkatnya pertumbuhan jumlah penduduk, pembangunan dan kegiatan industri, maka sampah yang dihasilkan juga akan semakin meningkat. Tujuan penelitian ini menghitung timbulan sampah yang ada di kabupaten sidoarjo selama 20 tahun kedepan dan membuat perencanaan proyeksi kapasitas yang diperlukan di TPA Kabupaten Sidoarjo selama 20 tahun kedepan. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan mengumpulkan data dari BPS, SIPSN, dan DLHK. Proses penelitian ini menghitung proyeksi penduduk dan timbulan sampah selama 20 tahun dengan menggunakan metode aritmatika. Hasil penelitian menunjukan untuk pertumbuhan masyarakat Kabupaten Sidoarjo setiap tahun mengalami pertumbuhan 0,16% setiap tahun. Sedangkan hasil perhitungan proyeksi timbulan sampah di Kabupaten Sidoarjo mengalami kenaikan 200 t/h, sedangkan kapasitas TPA sidoarjo hanya menampun 450 t/h. Maka dari itu perlunya pengolahan yang masif baik sebelum dikirim ke TPA, maupun pengolahan pada tempat TPA sendiri.
The population growth rate affects the volume of waste from population consumption. The increasing population growth, development, and industrial activities, the more waste produced. The purpose of this study is to calculate the waste generation in Sidoarjo Regency for the next 20 years and to plan the capacity projection required at the Sidoarjo Regency TPA for the next 20 years. This study was conducted by collecting data from BPS, SIPSN, and DLHK. The research process calculates the population projection and waste generation for 20 years using the arithmetic method. The results of the study show that the growth of the Sidoarjo Regency community has grown by 0.16% each year. Meanwhile, the results of the calculation of the waste generation projection in Sidoarjo Regency have increased by 200 t/h, while the capacity of the Sidoarjo TPA only accommodates 450 t/h. Therefore, massive processing is needed both before being sent to the TPA, and processing at the TPA itself.

Brachiaria ruziziensis (capim braquiária), espécie de Poaceae, é utilizada como pastagem e, também, como cobertura morta no sistema de plantio direto. Estudos anteriores têm revelado que a B. ruziziensis possui compostos fitotóxicos para espécies de plantas indesejáveis. O mecanismo de ação destes compostos, entretanto, é pouco conhecido. Este estudo investigou os efeitos da fração aquosa (FA) da palhada de B. ruziziensis e do ácido trans-aconítico no crescimento, na ultraestrutura e na micromorfologia celular de Arabidopsis thaliana L. A FA de B. ruziziensis reduziu a zona de elongamento e aumentou a zona de diferenciação das raízes de A. thaliana. As células apresentaram acúmulo de amido, aumento do retículo endoplasmático rugoso e espessamento da parede celular. Uma lignificação precoce das células pode ser um dos fatores que determinaram a redução do crescimento das raízes. O ácido trans-aconítico estimulou o desenvolvimento de raízes laterais, uma ação possivelmente relacionada às ações de auxinas. As células apresentaram corpúsculos eletrodensos na região da lamela média, grande número de vesículas de exocitose e mitocôndrias com formas alteradas em relação ao controle. Estes resultados podem representar mecanismos celulares de proteção à presença do ácido trans-aconítico. Os compostos ativos das palhadas de B. ruziziensis parecem atuar por múltiplos mecanismos, incluindo alterações na lignificação e na regulação hormonal das raízes.

The mechanisms by which the active compounds of Brachiaria ruziziensis R. Germ & C.M. Evrard are phytotoxic to the weed species Euphorbia heterophylla L. were examined. The respiratory activities of root apices and isolated mitochondria, the activities of antioxidant enzymes and the morphology of roots under the influence of exogenous phytohormones were evaluated. The effects of the butanolic fraction (BF) from B. ruziziensis were tested at 250 to 1000 µg mL-1. The BF stimulated the respiratory activity of roots, partially due to an increment in the alternate oxidase pathways. In isolated mitochondria the BF inhibited the respiration coupled to ADP phosphorylation. The activity of catalase and glutathione reductase in roots were higher than in the control condition, but in contrast, the activities of superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase, glutathione peroxidase and peroxidase were reduced. The roots of E. heterophylla grown in the presence of 1000 µg mL-1 were wider and shorter than those of controls. There was also an enhanced root hair development. Exogenous application of 8 nM indole acetic acid and 8 nM naftal acetic acid did not rescue the normal characteristics of roots. Abscisic acid (ABA) at 0.1 µM concentration caused similar changes to those ones caused by the BF. Cyto-histological observations of the longitudinal sections of roots showed reduction in the root cap region and an increased in the elongation zone. The whole of the data suggested that an elevation of ABA content could be implicated in the inhibitory action of the active compounds of the B. ruziziensis in E. heterophylla seedlings.
