Authors: J. Baruah
Published: November 2024

The greater one-horned rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis) of Assam’s Kaziranga National Park is one of the most iconic wildlife species found in the entire world. It is commonly found in Assam, Nepal, Bhutan and Pakistan. The population of rhinos in Assam is nearly 2895 out of which 2613 of them are concentrated in the Kaziranga National Park. It is confined to the forests and tall grasslands in the foothills of the Himalayas. It is an excellent swimmer and can run at speeds of up to 25 mph (40 km/h) for short intervals of time. It has a relatively poor eyesight but excellent senses of olfaction and hearing. Due to the massive conservation efforts, the poaching of the iconic Rhinoceros unicornis has reduced considerably bringing its status from ‘endangered’ to ‘vulnerable’ in 2008.

Published: November 2024

This research paper presents a detailed analysis of biomass assessment of woody species in Katerniaghat and Kaimoor Wildlife Sanctuary situated in Bahraich and Mirzapur district of Uttar Pradesh. Through a reconnaissance survey, area was stratified into high, medium and low disturbed site based on the presence of human induced disturbance indicators. Circular plot method of 10m radius was used for vegetation assessment. Data on vegetation like woody species name, number of individuals, Girth at Breast’s height were recorded. Biomass and carbon stock of tree species was calculated from each stratified site of both sanctuaries. The finding of the study showed that highest biomass was estimated from high disturbed site of Katerniaghat. In Kaimoor, medium disturbed site showed maximum biomass. The present study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of its carbon stock and sequestration potential. Biomass assessment is crucial for sustainable forest management and climate change mitigation strategies. Our findings reveal the negative impact of varying levels of anthropogenic disturbance on the forest biomass of both protected areas and help in better understanding of conservation and management and forests and carbon offset initiatives.

Published: November 2024

Along with anthropogenic activities, invasive alien species have done a major damage to native plant diversity. The present study is a comprehensive report on invasive alien species from Katepurna Wildlife Sanctuary (Maharashtra) India. A total of 93 invasive plant species belonging to 36 angiosperm families and 76 Genera are identified from the study area. More than 80%of alien species recorded are native to tropical America. The study also reported that most of the plants were unintentionally introduced in this region and then naturalized during the course of evolution. Of the recorded species, 72 % species were herbs, 15% species were shrubs, 4% species were trees and 9% species were climbers. The present study showed 26% of species from the study area were noxious, 11% of species were interfering and 63% of species were naturalized. These introduced alien species are found to gradually replacing the original local flora and hence this issue must be addressed on a priority basis.

Published: November 2024

Groundwater is essential to the world’s water resources because it supports systems for home, industrial, and agricultural water delivery. However, the extensive use of irrigation systems, particularly micro irrigation, is posing an increasing threat to the long-term sustainability of groundwater. A common agricultural practice is micro irrigation, which involves using sprinkler systems and drip irrigation to apply water to crops. This technique’s capacity to effectively supply water to crops has led to its widespread use. The present review investigates the effects of micro irrigation on the sustainability of groundwater, with a particular emphasis on the effects on quantity, quality, and overall sustainability. The results show that by lowering water losses, micro irrigation can greatly aid in groundwater conservation. On the other hand, poor management techniques, including excessive irrigation or inaccurate application rates, can result in overuse of groundwater, aquifer depletion, and falling water tables. The use of pesticides and fertilizers in micro irrigation systems can contaminate groundwater, lowering water quality and endangering public health. The need of properly designing, installing, and maintaining micro irrigation systems is emphasized in this review paper in order to reduce any potential negative effects on groundwater. In addition, policies, programs, and regulatory frameworks are essential for encouraging sustainable groundwater management techniques in micro irrigation. In order to guarantee the sustainable use of groundwater resources in micro irrigation systems, the current assessment emphasizes the importance of enforcing pertinent regulations, improving water management strategies, and adopting balanced water use practices.

Authors: Singh Nikhil Kumar , Singh U. P. , Jha Sitesh , Singh Amitesh Kumar
Published: November 2024

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is an important staple crop in India, where it is mainly grown by manual transplanting of seedlings into puddled soil. Recently, however, there is a trend toward dry- direct seeded rice (DSR) because of labour and water scarcity. In DSR, weeds are the main biological constraint. Herbicides are used to manage weeds in DSR systems, but the use of herbicides alone does not provide effective and sustainable weed control. Therefore, field experiment was conducted during rainy season 2008 and 2009to evaluate the effect of crop establishment methods and integrated weed management on weed dynamics, growth and yield of. Rice established by zero-till DSR with anchored residue had minimum density and dry weight of grasses, sedges, broadleaves and maximum weed control efficiency, yield attributes, grain yield (4562 and 4785 kg ha-1), economics and moisture use efficiency. Among weed management methods, application of pendimethalin 1000 gha-1 fb azimsulfuron 35 g ha-1 at 15-20 DAS + one hand weeding at 40 DAS proved to be the most effective in lowering the weed density and dry weight of grassy and non-grassy weeds, enhancing the weed control efficiency, yield attributes, grain yield (5451 and 5542 kgha-1), economics and moisture use efficiency during both the years of experimentation. Although, the result of this trial confirms the effect of different weed management practices on the grain yield of rice, but the findings prove the integration of different crop establishment methods and weed management practices will manage the weeds and enhance the yield of DSR.

Published: November 2024

Given the increasing emphasis on evidence-based healthcare, the utilization of health information has been postulated to lead to improved healthcare quality and outcomes. Unfortunately, a paucity of research in this domain, coupled with the need for an up-to-date view, calls for an updated review of existing evidence to guide healthcare practices, policies, and systems. This paper systematically reviews studies addressing the use of health information among healthcare providers. More studies are needed to better understand healthcare utilization of health information. Greater efforts are needed to advance health information use in this sector. While the extant studies face a lack of theoretical basis for analysis, levels of health information utilization were found to vary across settings, locations, and health professionals. Healthcare facilities, healthcare policymakers, and researchers should prioritize enhancing health information utilization in line with local realities. This study urges healthcare systems to assess and correct any deficiencies in the utilization of health information. The integration of health information systems warrants standardized technology implementation. One hundred and sixteen studies, fifteen of which covered inpatient care, forty-three in primary healthcare, and twenty-one in rehabilitation, were included in the final review. Of the included studies, most were conducted in high-income countries.

Published: November 2024

This study investigates the extraction, characterization, and application of natural dyes from Eucalyptus bark and leaf granules using solvents such as 2-ethoxy-ethanol, acetone, methanol, and distilled water. The dyes were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV-visible spectroscopy with analyses performed using a Bruker Advanced 400 MHz FT spectrophotometer. FTIR analysis identified key functional groups such as hydroxyl (O-H), carbonyl (C=O), and aliphatic (C-H), indicating the presence of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, tannins, and fatty acids. Fastness tests, including wash, light, and rubbing fastness, were conducted and assessed on gray and blue scales, revealing differences in hue and shade between pre-metallized and un-pre-metallized substrates. Dyes extracted from leaves in distilled water and methanol showed higher absorbance, while bark extracts provided deeper brown shades on cotton fabrics. Leaf extracts produced lighter, greenish-brown shades. The fastness ratings ranged from very good to excellent, demonstrating the potential of Eucalyptus-based dyes for sustainable textile applications.

Overweight and obesity have emerged as a growing public health concern, with global rates steadily rising over the past decades. In the Netherlands, 50% of the adult population are overweight, with 14% classified as obese. This is problematic as being overweight is associated with an increased risk of various non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, musculoskeletal disorders, and several cancers. While losing weight offers numerous health benefits for individuals who are overweight or obese, maintaining weight loss is often challenging. Understanding the predictors of lapse and subsequent relapse is crucial for preventing or minimizing their occurrence in weight loss maintenance behaviors. Therefore, the overall aim of this thesis is to determine the predictors of lapse and relapse in weight loss maintenance behaviors, in specific physical activity and dietary behavior. This thesis demonstrates that there are several predictors that show promise in predicting lapse and relapse, both at the individual level and within the environmental context. Across the studies, self-efficacy consistently emerged as a significant predictor, emphasizing its pivotal role in behavior change and relapse prevention. Additionally, the environment, encompassing both the physical and social environment, played a significant role. Particularly social pressure and social norms were key factors within the social environment. Our findings underscore the multifaceted nature of predictors of lapse and relapse in physical activity and dietary behavior. This highlights the importance of addressing both individual and environmental factors for health practitioners guiding individuals toward sustainable lifestyle changes, and in interventions aimed at behavior change maintenance. Furthermore, to enhance lifestyle coaching, health practitioners need to be mindful that their perceptions of primary predictors of relapse in physical activity and dietary behavior might not fully align with those of individuals who have experienced relapse. Moving forward, achieving consensus on operational definitions of lapse and relapse in physical activity and dietary behavior is of importance to advance future research in this field.

Natural disasters pose a serious threat to human survival and the environment. Their impacts extend beyond physical damage to include economic, social, and psychological ramifications. In this context, the state's responsibility in addressing the damage caused by natural disasters is a primary concern in civil law. This abstract explores the concept and implementation of the state's civil legal responsibility for damage caused by natural disasters and the influencing factors. Analysis indicates that the fundamental concept of the state's civil legal responsibility is based on the principle of protecting citizens and their environment, both internationally and domestically. Legal instruments such as the United Nations' 2005 Declaration on Disaster Risk Reduction provide a framework for mitigation efforts and disaster response. However, determining the state's responsibility is influenced by factors such as inadvertence, the effectiveness of prevention measures, state intervention, and disaster response. Case studies of earthquakes and other natural disasters provide insights into the implementation of the state's responsibility in recovery, rehabilitation, and compensation allocation to victims. In conclusion, a comprehensive understanding of the state's responsibility in managing natural disasters is crucial for enhancing the state's response and protecting affected communities. Clear legal frameworks, effective prevention measures, and fair law enforcement are necessary to address the challenges of natural disasters in the future. This abstract contributes to the development of legal policies and practices that can improve state readiness and response to natural disasters.

It is of extensive significance to evaluate the risk degree of light pollution and prevent the harm of light pollution. In this paper, 149 airborne radar point cloud data were processed by Southlidar software, and the point cloud data were processed by progressive morphological filtering function, and seven geographic information indexes were formed, including green coverage, ground area percentage, construction area percentage, water body area percentage, and road area percentage, and the relationship between them and the risk factors affecting light pollution was found. Then, according to the seven indicators, the classification basis of light pollution risk level based on entropy weight-fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model was established, and the light pollution risk level was divided into I. to IV levels according to the evaluation results. Secondly, the linear discriminant analysis model is used to establish the canonical discriminant function to judge the risk degree of the sample data of City, Suburban, Countryside and protected areas.

Lipids play key roles in many biological processes. Most lipids contain long aliphatic chains whose variable structure contributes to diverse physicochemical properties and biological functions of these molecules. The aliphatic chains of lipids can be straight or branched, with double or triple bonds, or with various functional groups. In recent years, mass spectrometry has made significant progress in the structural analysis of lipids. New methods are based on unconventional fragmentation techniques and new derivatization reactions. They can be used to determine the detailed structure of aliphatic chains, including the position of multiple bonds, functional groups, and the arrangement of aliphatic chains in complex lipids. This review article is a follow-up to two previous articles that dealt with the determination of double bond positions (Chem. Listy 117, 684 (2023), Chem. Listy 117, 747 (2023)). Here, we focus on determining the position of methyl branching, oxygen-containing functional groups, carbocyclic structures, and the stereospecific position of the acyl chain on glycerol.
Universal Reference Electrode System for Non-Ideal Media
Authors: Janata Jiří , Dorčák Vlastimil , Hrbáč Jan , Vacek Jan
Published: November 2024

Potentials in electrochemical experiments are referenced to a hydrogen electrode, which is set up in an ideal aqueous medium. However, most electrochemical experiments are performed in media which are far from ideal. This inevitably leads to the necessity of using a liquid junction between ideal and non-ideal solutions, or a pseudoreference electrode. The resulting undefined and irreproducible liquid junction potential can be eliminated by the Universal Reference Electrode system presented here. This consists of two electrodes: a voltammetric metallocene electrode and a potentiometric polyaniline electrode. The system is not a replacement for a Normal Hydrogen Electrode. It is only an elimination of undefined liquid junction potential, when working in a non-ideal medium.
