50 ANOS DE MONITORAMENTO DA PESCA NA AMAZÔNIA
Authors: Da Cunha Cristiane Vieira , S. Sousa Keid Nolan
Published: November 2024

As iniciativas de monitoramento da pesca vivenciadas nos últimos 50 anos demonstram claramente a necessidade de serem repensadas. Portanto, no presente trabalho, analisamos as metodologias adotadas em programas de monitoramento pesqueiro na Amazônia, suas fragilidades e a necessidade deavanços. A partir de ampla revisão bibliográfica sobre os “50 anos de monitoramento da pesca na Amazônia”, percebemos que a utilização de apenas uma metodologia, como censo diário de desembarques pesqueiros, não é o suficiente para compreender a complexidade socioecológica da pesca, assim como nãoé possível desenvolver um programa de monitoramento desarticulado com os diferentes atores da cadeia produtiva desse setor. Como contribuição, propomos a adoção de um programa de monitoramento adaptativo da pesca, que avance no conceito de participação social e para levantamento de dados de produção, esforço, biologia pesqueira e socioecologia de forma integrada.
Debt-Fossil Fuel Trap: An analysis of Emerging Global Environmental Challenge
Authors: - Dr. Alok Verma
Published: November 2024

Recently in November 2021, Our beloved Prime minister addressing at UN Climate Conference, Glasgow in his speech, showed his concerns about a very serious Emerging Global Environmental Challenge and loudly appealed to the Developed Nations to provide a CLIMATE FINANCE of 1 trillion dollars to The Global South (a term used for developing, less developing and underdeveloped countries, located in Africa, Latin America, and Asia — countries). His statement was considered as the representation of entire GLOBAL SOUTH. Why was the Prime minister of India appealing to the Developed countries for such a huge monetary help and what was the reason?
Basically, now a days Various Rich and Developed countries are forcing the poor, under developed or developed countries (The Global South) to continue to rely on fossil fuels for generating revenue to return the loans taken from richer countries and private lenders to meet various economic exigencies like the pandemic three years ago. The Global South are increasingly being burdened by enormous debts in recent years. According to a report their “external debt payments (money borrowed from richer countries, or multilateral creditors like the World Bank and IMF, or private lenders such as banks) has gone up by 150% between 2011 and 2023, reaching their highest levels in 25 years”. These rich countries are continuously trying to trap these trodden countries either by capturing the mines of the GLOBAL SOUTH Countries or forcing them to rely on fossil fuels for generating revenue to return the loans taken from richer countries. A British organisation “Debt Justice” recently in its report discussed about emerging traumatically originated concept of “debt fossil-fuel Trap”. It is such a dangerous trap which could be proved an impossible task to the poor countries.
How this trap will affect the Climate and would be a threat to environment is serious concern. The analysis would be on how indebt countries find out it difficult even impossible to phase-out from this trap of mining fossil-fuel and transition to renewable energy a revenue from fossil fuel.
Author has tried to analyse this dangerous step taken by few rich and developed countries in this book in a chapter form.
Advancing Hierarchical Model: Evaluating Performance, Interpretability and Implications
Authors: - Seth Opoku Larbi , - Apaka Rangita , - Joyce Otieno
Published: November 2024

Hierarchical data structures emerge when observations are nested within higher-level units or clusters. Existing research often ignores the hierarchical structure of data leading to biased estimates, suboptimal model selection, and challenges in identifying important predictors and dependencies. This study aims to contribute to hierarchical frameworks by improving challenges with the interpretability of the random effect, scalability, and computation feasibility in the traditional hierarchical Bayesian model. The authors’ model is an advancement of the Standard hierarchical Bayesian model which introduced a unique variable to the model and parameters to the random effects. The advancements in hierarchical modelling by the authors have significantly improved the accuracy, reliability, and interpretability of the model analysis. Hierarchical Bayesian Information Criteria (HBIC) is the method of selecting variables in the models. The findings of the research indicated that the introduction of Phi (ϕ_j) and Psi (ψ_j) as shrinkage parameters are instrumental in the regulation of parameter estimates towards a common value, resulting in more accurate estimation and less overfitting in the Hierarchical Bayesian Model as well as accounting for the presence of heterogeneity. The introduction of the unique variable (z) allows the model to capture cluster-specific effects associated with the (z). Lastly, the study found that the authors' innovative model outperformed the standard model by improving the accuracy, interpretability, scalability, and regularisation through shrinkage parameters and innovative (z) as the contextual variable.

Authors: - Nur Andini Eka Rani Putri , - Irwan Bagyo Santoso
Published: November 2024

Watershed (DAS) is a land area that includes rivers and their tributaries, which functions to accommodate, store, and channel rainwater to lakes or the sea naturally. In Bangkalan Regency, the Pocong River plays an important role in the local ecosystem. This river is used for various needs, such as irrigation, industry, and household consumption. The upstream part of the Pocong River, which is classified as class I, is used for drinking water and recreation, while the downstream part, in class II, is used for fish farming and crop irrigation. However, with increasing human activity, the water quality of the Pocong River has decreased due to pollution from domestic, agricultural, and industrial waste. Research using MIKE21 software will model the water quality in both parts of the river to provide an overview of the water quality conditions in the Pocong River. This study aims to model the quality of the upstream part of the Pocong River, class I and the downstream part, class II. The expected results of this study are to provide structured data and information regarding the water quality model of the Pocong River in the upstream and downstream parts.
Assessing Environmental Contamination through Pollen Analysis of Solitary Cavity-nesting Resin Bees Around Kolhapur City
Authors: - Karan K. Deokar , - Saurabh Joshi
Published: November 2024

This study examines how pollen-nectar mixtures collected by solitary cavity-nesting resin bees can serve as bioindicators of environmental pollution. Researchers utilized paper straw trap nests across various locations, including agricultural (Shirgaon to Kandalgaon road in Gokul Shirgaon, Kolhapur), industrial (MIDC Shiroli, Kolhapur), urban (Dabolkar Corner, Kolhapur City), and a control area (KIT's College of Engineering, Gokul Shirgaon, Kolhapur). The nests, installed in February 2024, contained empty straws and some partially packed with larvae from the control area. These nests were designed to mimic natural habitats, allowing mature bees to build nests and create pollen-nectar mixtures for their offspring. Analysis aimed to detect environmental contaminants in these mixtures. Only one sample from the industrial area (Trap Nest Location 5 at Quality Castings, MIDC Shiroli) was recovered, showing elevated levels of iron, manganese, chromium, and nickel, consistent with industrial emissions. In contrast, the control area produced viable samples with detectable levels of magnesium, zinc, iron, aluminum, and barium. The absence of samples from urban and agricultural areas suggests adverse conditions affecting bee populations. This underscores the sensitivity of resin bees to pollution and highlights their role as bioindicators. The study emphasizes the need for effective environmental management to enhance habitat quality and protect both bees and human health.

Authors: Mora Villalobos Carlos Albeiro , Rendón Acevedo Jaime Alberto , Bedoya‑Cadena Laura Cristina
Published: November 2024

In 2021, vegetable crops in Colombia accounted for 3.7% of national agricultural production, reaching a total production of 2.71 million tons, of which 81.2% came from 8 departments, the most representative being Boyacá (20.3%), Antioquia (17.3%), Cundinamarca (12.0%), Nariño (8.1%) and Santander (7.4%). Of the country’s 1,121 municipalities, 796 reported vegetable production. This article aims to analyze the concentration and specialization of vegetable production in Colombian municipalities between 2007–2021. The methodology analyzed two statistical databases applying the Gini coefficient, Location Coefficient (LQ), Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) and Moran’s index of spatial autocorrelation to identify the agricultural clusters (CA) in the Colombian vegetables sector, which are complemented with thematic cartography. Measurements were made in 2007, 2014 and 2021 (start–mid–end). Additionally, the sensitivity of five vegetable crops (the most important for national production) is estimated using OLS, with respect to the average annual temperature (AAT) and total annual precipitation (TAP). The results reveal a regional Gini of 0.7496, 0.7674 and 0.7072 in 2007, 2014 and 2021, respectively. By 2021, 398 municipalities were identified with LQ greater than 1.0, of which 66 were among the 20% of the highest values (between 12.03 and 27.02). Likewise, 51 municipalities were found where vegetables accounted for more than 50% of total agricultural production. Additionally, in 2021, the municipalities with the highest level of specialization HHI were Sáchica (1.00), Cajicá (0.77), Aquitania (0.65), Tibasosa (0.605) and Cota (0.619). The OLS between production, AAT and TAP identified statistical significance only in tomato and green onion. In conclusion, the findings indicate a significant regional concentration of vegetable production in the last fifteen years. A variation of 34.7% in the number of producing municipalities was observed at the between 2007 and 2021. The most representative crops in the years analyzed were tomato, green onion, bulb onion and carrot, which in 2021 were 64.0% of national production. These results contribute to the guilds institutions, regional governments, municipal administrations, and public policymakers because they constitute an input to regional productive planning in rural areas, especially where peasant family farming is prevalent.

Authors: Wiratama Rudy
Published: November 2024

Serat Menak is a grand corpus of Javanese-Islamic text that is adopted from the Islamic epoch, Qissa-I Emir Hamza or Hikayat Amir Hamzah, which has widely spread in Asian region in the middle of second millenium CE. The popularity of Serat Menak made this text has many variants, and the one which is largely recognized was Yasadipura I (1729-1803)'s version which was composed in the beginning of Surakarta era. The text of Serat Menak Yasadipuran then become very well-known in Java, and became the inspiration for some branches of performing arts, such as wayang, whether in its kulit, golek, krucil, or wong formats. One of these wayang genres that took its repertoire from Menak tales was wayang kulit menak, which was introduced in Surakarta in the first quarter of 20th century, the creation of Sutarja Truna Dipa (STD) which has not being scientifically studied yet until this present day. This article aims to identify how far was the relation between STD's Surakarta wayang kulit menak with Serat Menak Yasadipuran, using Wolfgang Iser's Rezeption Aesthetic approach to obtain the reception and transformation patterns from textual narratives to visual forms. The result of this research concluded that STD's Surakarta wayang menak was a living artwork which evolving along times. On the other side, STD as the implied reader has been consistent in recepting Serat Menak Yasadipuran with some additions and adaptations, which was done to fulfil the needs of performance. Innovations done by STD to his wayang menak creation were not limited in the term of transformation from textual to visual media, but also filling the gaps (leerstellen) with the rich formal interpretation, which are completing the narrative of Serat Menak, so it will be more interesting to be played.

Published: November 2024

The gap of student achievement in education between urban and rural student suggests that continuous effort is required to achieve equity in Malaysian Education. Science education is often said as not relevant with students’ lives especially rural students, resulting students felt not engaged, less interested, and does not performed in Science. There is little research about students’ funds of knowledge (FOK) in Science learning in Malaysia even though FOK is able to connect students experience, knowledge, and skills out of school with school science learning. This systematic review is done to analyse critically and synthesis trends, instructional approach and impact of research that used funds of knowledge in Science learning. Three databases were used which are SCOPUS, Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) and SCIENCE DIRECT to determine articles from 2010-2019. The search resulted 307 articles using funds of knowledge and science as the keywords but only 17 articles were analysed after the screening process. The analysis showed that research about funds of knowledge in Science learning has gained in number but mostly focused on urban students. Studies revolved around students and teachers, also are focussed at primary and secondary schools. In addition, interview is the common research instrument used in the research followed by observation, field note analysis, and lesson plan analysis including students’ assessment. Discourse analysis was the most common approach used to obtain student funds of knowledge followed by production of artefact, inquiry approach and use of technology. The impacts of using student’s funds of knowledge is that students are more engaged, interested, active, found relevancy with life, improve achievement, and able to understand the science concept. Implications of the study are 1) to implement FOK in the teaching and learning of science especially for rural students, and 2) the need for teacher education to develop teachers’ knowledge, skills and attitudes in the content and practice integrating FOK in the teaching and learning or science.

Currently, there are emerging concerns about Physics education due to the deteriorate affection in physics subject among the secondary school students. This study aimed to evaluate student’s perception towards their passion on physics education which concentrated on pedagogical approach, nature of physics subject, difficulty level of physics topic and student’s factor. A survey questionnaire was executed to 146 gifted students in Nilai, Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia which were studied physics starting at lower secondary school. Students were found to have different ways in leaning style in which teachers may use differentiated learning method to separate between different student’s intelligences based on cognitive level and different suitable assessment. In addition, 90% of the students agreed that the nature of physics topics induced the difficulty of physics. Despite the difficulty nature of physics with enclosed by awfully tough topics, however some topics were easily learnt by the students. Interestingly, 49% realized that physics is important subject to be learnt and yet, 48% of the students disagree that they are not doing homework which indicated that most of the students only study while doing their homework. This justified the 68.5% of students spend their time for learning physics in the range of 0-4 h a week just to complete their homework. Ultimately, these finding will give some awareness and advice to the teachers to change teacher’s learning style and boost student’s interest in learning physics. Consequently, their knowledge serves as the backbone for science and technology.

Rapidly developing digital technology has also entered educational settings. Teachers play a crucial role in using digital technology in education. This study aims to examine preschool teachers' views on using digital technology in early childhood learning settings in Turkey (N=43). Data were obtained qualitatively through closed and open-ended interview questions from teachers working in 16 different provinces of Turkey. Data were collected online with a semi-structured interview form. In the study, teachers' views on using digital technology in their homes and classrooms and the role of digital technology in preschool education were evaluated. The data obtained through the interview were analyzed by inductive analysis. As a result of the study, it was found that teachers possessed web-based technologies, and they mostly used smartphone applications (97.7%). On the other hand, they used digital technology less in their classrooms (48.8%); teachers generally used digital technology with their devices, such as smartphones. The findings on the use of digital technology in preschool education revealed that teachers grouped digital technology applications under four themes, teacher, education, program, and family involvement. Regarding teachers' views, the pros of digital technology are: it makes it easier to do their job (46.5%), facilitates learning in education (39.5%), facilitates the transfer of gains (41.9%), and facilitates communication with family (34.9%). On the other hand, teachers' views revealed some negativities regarding digital technology. In the 21st century, where digital technology has become an indispensable element, it is considered necessary to provide children with the skills to use digital technology. Therefore the positive aspects of digital technology in education declared in teachers' statements are an important result of the research.

Authors: Yılmaz Ayşe Duran , Ömeroğlu Esra
Published: November 2024

This study aimed to create and validate a scale for early childhood educators that reflects the cultural sensitivity of educators in classrooms. We collected data from 403 early childhood educators in Adıyaman, Turkey. Experts' assessments were consulted for content validity, and EFA and CFA were done for the reliability and validity of the scale. The internal consistency coefficient was calculated based on the reliability of the study. The result of scale development was a 29-item, 3-factor scale that shows evidence of reliability, validity, and practical usability for further research. The three factors of the Cultural Sensitivity Scale for Early Childhood Educators consist of "acceptance of cultural differences," "adaptation of cultural differences," and "rejecting cultural differences." The relationship among subscales was tested and it was seen that the sub-dimensions of 'Acceptance of Cultural Differences' and 'Adaptation to Cultural Differences' were positively related to each other and that these two sub-dimensions were negatively and significantly related to the sub-dimension of 'Rejecting Cultural Differences'. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) also confirmed the results of EFA. Factor analysis results show ed that the scale had three factor and Cronbach a was .743.

Authors: Özen-Uyar Rabia , Aktaş-Arnas Yaşare
Published: November 2024

During the early stages of childhood, educators play a pivotal role as influential figures in a child’s life. The dynamic between teacher and child holds the potential to either foster or jeopardize the child’s developmental trajectory. The present study investigated the predictive role of teacher-child relationships in behavior problems for Turkish children. A predictive correlation design was used in this study. Eight preschool teachers rated the quality of their relationships with 138 children aged 4–6 years and their externalizing and internalizing problem behaviors. Findings revealed that the quality of the teacher-child relationships was a significant predictor of both externalizing and internalizing problems. Closeness in teacher-child relationships is associated with a decrease in children’s externalizing and internalizing behavior problems. Conflicts in teacher-child relationships, in contrast, have been linked to increased problem behaviors exhibited by children. Notably, conflict emerges as a more influential predictor for externalizing behavior problems, whereas the level of closeness exerts a more substantial influence on internalizing behavior problems. Findings provide new perspectives on how teacher-child relationship patterns affect children’s behavior problems in Turkey context.
The Relationship between Preschool Children’s Anxiety and Life Skills: The Mediating Role of Self-Regulation
Authors: Sop Aylin
Published: November 2024

The present study examined the mediating role of self-regulation in the relationship between preschool children's anxiety and life skills. Children's anxiety, self-regulation, and life skills were assessed using the "Children's Anxiety Scale-Mothers' Form," "The Self-Regulation Skills Scale for Children aged 4 to 6 (Mothers' Form)," "The Early Childhood Life Skills Scale," and the data obtained from 303 participants who participated in the survey were tested through PLS to SEM. Although preschool children's anxiety is not directly related to life skills, self-regulation fully mediates the relationship between anxiety and life skills. The results provided preliminary evidence for the mechanism by which children's anxiety affects self-regulation and life skills. These findings suggest that the relationship between anxiety and life skills varies according to children's self-regulatory abilities. The findings have practical implications for supporting the development of self-regulation in preschool children.

Authors: Rozaimie Awang
Published: November 2024

Potentially serving as the primary national literacy initiative, the Reading Seed Programme (RSP) by PUSTAKA Negeri Sarawak aims to enculturate a reading culture from an early age. For instance, RSP was invented to promote reading culture by having the pregnant mother read to their infant until the child was three years old. The process is vital to helping children learn to read from a young age and eventually empower them to be independent readers for life. Particularly, the objectives of RSP are to promote reading habits by getting parents to read to their children, strengthen a child’s vocabulary, and develop their confidence, especially in reading. Thus, this paper is primarily designed to investigate the demographic differences between RSP participation and the programme’s objectives, i.e., reading habits, parent’s engagement, vocabulary ability, and confidence development. To assess how well the RSP achieved its goal of assisting toddlers in developing their confidence as readers. An online survey yielded 385 completed responses, representing a 92.33% response rate among RSP participants. The key findings indicated that the age of the child, mode of joining the programme, and year received the RSP’s kits are the most important indicators of the usefulness of the programme (RSP and RSP’s kits) and the programme’s objectives attainment, especially in straightening the child's vocabulary and comprehension and developing their confidence, especially in reading and knowledge. Nonetheless, the results of this study highlighted the novelty of the early literacy programme of the RSP in cultivating the reading culture, parent-child engagement in reading, and preparing children to acquire knowledge.

Authors: Ismail Susheela , Mohd Nor Nurfarhana Diana , Abdullah Nurul Fadhilah
Published: November 2024

Globally, malnutrition is an issue that has never been overcome, even after a series of efforts by experts, which have never been impressive. The world’s malnutrition burden remains unsatisfactory since malnutrition is solely responsible for more illnesses than other reasons. Malnutrition continues to be a significant problem in Malaysia. The most common manifestation of chronic malnutrition in children is stunting, a lifetime problem for a child in Malaysia. Stunting is an irreversible condition in which a child cannot regain their height in the same way that they can regain weight. Notably, various factors have been identified associated with the risk of stunting among Malaysian children. This includes socio-demographic background, gestational characteristics, maternal and infant diet, feeding practice, illness, and infection. As discovered through the literature review, stunted children face many disabilities, such as learning deficiencies, which affect their productivity for economic prosperity, mostly falling sick more often, losing opportunities to learn, performing poorly in school and growing up to be backward, and more likely to suffer from diet-related Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs). Therefore, this study will develop and evaluate the effectiveness of interactive multimedia-based nutrition education on Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) about nutrition, growth monitoring, breastfeeding, and child-feeding practices among mothers with stunted children using the ADDIE model. This study will employ a quasi-experimental research method consisting of control and treatment groups. The study will be conducted in maternal child health clinics in the Seberang Perai district in Pulau Pinang. The population of this study consists of mothers with stunted children under five years old. In this study, convenience sampling will be used to recruit the target population, and the sample size was determined using G*power.

Advances in the use of metal-free tetrapyrrolic macrocycles as catalysts
Authors: Chahal Mandeep K
Published: November 2024

This review provides an overview of recent progress made in the field of catalysis using metal-free tetrapyrrolic macrocycles, focusing on calix[4]pyrroles, porphyrins and corroles, which are structurally related to porphyrins. Calix[4]pyrroles are versatile receptors in supramolecular chemistry while porphyrins are considered as ‘pigment of life’ due to their role in vital biological processes. Beyond their natural functions, synthetic porphyrins have been applied in various fields, including organometallic catalysis, dye-sensitized solar cells, sensing, artificial olfactory systems, photodynamic therapy (PDT), anticancer drugs, biochemical probes, and electrochemical devices. Relevant examples of these two pyrrolic macrocycles as metal-free organocatalysts, photocatalysts, and electrocatalysts are presented here. The effect of macrocyclic structural modifications such as their functionalization with different substituents, distortion from planarity, conformational flexibility and rigidity towards catalytic activity are presented, highlighting the potential of these two macrocycles as metal-free catalysts.

Published: November 2024

El presente estudio analiza la viabilidad de implementar un generador de hidrógeno en los motores diésel de los vehículos militares de la escuela de caballería del ejército nacional de Colombia, con el objetivo de reducir las emisiones contaminantes y mejorar la eficiencia operativa. El principal problema de investigación está relacionado con la limitada eficiencia térmica de los motores diésel y su contribución a la contaminación ambiental, en particular la emisión de gases como CO2 y NOx. La investigación combina un enfoque mixto, utilizando métodos cuantitativos para medir el impacto en las emisiones y la eficiencia del motor, y cualitativos para recopilar las percepciones de los técnicos y operadores sobre la implementación de esta tecnología.(Ochoa Oliva, 2021) El diseño es exploratorio y transversal, evaluando vehículos militares en diferentes entornos operativos y aplicando un sistema de encuestas a 120 técnicos, militares y civiles con experiencia directa en el mantenimiento de estos vehículos. El marco teórico se basa en las teorías de la combustión limpia y el ciclo de vida de los motores, mientras que los antecedentes investigativos se centran en el uso de hidrógeno en motores de combustión interna, aunque en su mayoría en contextos civiles. Los resultados del estudio permitirán identificar los desafíos técnicos y logísticos de implementar hidrógeno en motores diésel militares, así como proponer recomendaciones para su posible adopción a mayor escala, contribuyendo a la reducción de la huella ambiental del ejército colombiano y a la mejora de la sostenibilidad en las operaciones militares.(Vizcaíno et al., 2006a)
