Published: October 2021

A detailed analysis of distribution shifts in Pinus hartwegii Lindl. is provided across time for Izta-Popo National Park (México). Combining satellite images, species distribution models, and connectivity analysis we disentangled the effect of climate change and anthropogenic land use on the habitat availability. Twenty-four Maxent habitat suitability models with varying complexity were combined with insights on vegetation and land cover change derived from two Landsat satellite images at 30-m resolution from 1993 and 2013. To evaluate effects of climate change on Izta-Popo’s P. hartwegii forest, projections for future climatic conditions (averaged for 2050 and 2070) were derived using two General Circulation Models under three Representative CO2 concentration pathways (RCPs). Calculated fragmentation and connectivity indexes (Equivalent Connected Area and Probability of Connectivity metrics) showed significant habitat loss and habitat fragmentation that weakens P. hartwegii dispersion flux and the strength of connections. Projections of future climate conditions showed a reduction of P. hartwegii habitat suitability as populations would have to migrate to higher altitudes. However, the impact of anthropogenic land use change documented over the 20 years masks the predicted impact of climate change in Izta-Popo National Park.

Published: October 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic did not only impact all spheres of life but came abruptly to redefine our understanding of the urban-scape. With changing user-values and user-needs, there is a renewed realisation of the importance of the human-scape and how human capital, social issues, and liveability considerations will progressively lead urban development discussions. The urban-scape risk is far more complex and fragile than previously anticipated, with the future of the city centre dependent on our ability to successfully manage the transition from an urban-scape to a human-scape. This research employed a narrative review methodology to reflect on COVID-19 trends that will shape future city centres, based on expert contributions pertaining to (1) the community sector, (2) the public sector, and (3) the private sector within the Sydney Metropolitan area of Australia. The research highlighted the changing human-scape needs and associated impacts of (1) changing movement patterns, (2) changing social infrastructure, and (3) increasing multifunctionality, which will be crucial factors in shaping attractive (future) city centres. The research contributes to the notion that future city centres will embrace and prioritise the human-scape in a response to ‘build back better’, and accordingly, identified how the human-scape can be articulated in broader spatial planning approaches to create attractive future city centres.

Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) are key drivers of nitrification in rainfed soil ecosystems. However, within a semi-arid region, the influence of different soil amendments on the composition of soil AOA and AOB communities and soil properties of rainfed maize is still unclear. Therefore, in this study, the abundance, diversity, and composition of AOA and AOB communities and the potential nitrification activity (PNA) was investigated across five soil treatments: no fertilization (NA), urea fertilizer (CF), cow manure (SM), corn stalk (MS), and cow manure + urea fertilizer (SC). The AOB amoA gene copy number was influenced significantly by fertilization treatments. The AOB community was dominated by Nitrosospira cluster 3b under the CF and SC treatments, and the AOA community was dominated by Nitrososphaera Group I.1b under the CF and NA amendments; however, manure treatments (SM, MS, and SC) did not exhibit such influence. Network analysis revealed the positive impact of some hub taxonomy on the abundance of ammonia oxidizers. Soil pH, NO3−-N, Module 3, biomass, and AOB abundance were the major variables that influenced the potential nitrification activity (PNA) within structural equation modeling. PNA increased by 142.98–226.5% under the treatments CF, SC, SM, and MS compared to NA. In contrast to AOA, AOB contributed dominantly to PNA. Our study highlights the crucial role of bacterial communities in promoting sustainable agricultural production in calcareous soils in semi-arid loess plateau environments.

Published: October 2021

Forest conservation and restoration are urgently needed to preserve key resources for the endemic fauna of dry southern Madagascar. This is a priority in the shrinking, seasonally dry forest of Berenty, a private reserve in Southern Madagascar. However, to provide a basis for forest restoration, a study of tree growth and regeneration in this unique biome is essential. A three-year planting program of native and endemic species was initiated in 2016. Three trial plots were established in forest gaps, with varying microclimates and soil conditions: one on the riverside, one in the mid-forest and the third in a degraded dryland area. We planted 1297 seedlings of 24 native tree species with plantings spaced at 1 m and 1.5 m and measured their height and stem diameters and recorded seedling mortality. We also recorded plant recruitment on the plots from the nearby forest. The main findings were that growth was best on the mid-forest plot planted at 1 m. Seedling mortality was highest on the riverside plot for the 1 m seedlings and least in the mid-forest at both planting distances. Recruitment was highest in the mid-forest at both planting distances and high also at 1.5 m by the river. These results are intended to aid future forest restoration on the Reserve and may serve as a reference for restoration of other dry forests in Madagascar. Finally, since species identification is central to the project, we collected, prepared and catalogued tree specimens to form a reference collection in an herbarium under construction in a new Research Centre at the reserve.

Published: October 2021

The control of production processes can assist in the standardization of variability, reducing waste, and improving the quality of a service or product. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the non-conformities in a production system of forest seedlings from Atlantic Forest aiming at the standardization of the production system and adjustments for field cultivation. The definition of the attributes was made through a technical visit to the forestry nursery to know the location and the production process of the seedlings. For the process evaluation, statistical process control tools were used. The non-conformities analyzed were: coiled root growth, disintegrated substrates of plants, presence of roots fixed to the ground, presence of phytopathogen attack symptoms and/or herbivory and symptoms of nutritional deficiency. In general, variability was detected in the production process, compromising the success in planting the seedlings in the field, as well as their quality.

Mixed planting when well managed can be more efficient in the production of biomass and in the use of available resources, thus increasing the profits of planting. The objectives of this research were to quantify the biomass of a mixed plantation of Pinus taeda and Pinus elliottii, by the direct method and to verify the allocation of biomass between the components and the production of biomass per unit area of the mixed plantation and of the two species studied. From the forest census carried out in the mixed planting of 43.5 ha, at 16 years of age, the diametric distribution of the population was generated. Based on the diametric classes, 60 trees were randomly sampled by the direct method, 30 trees for each species. Then, the aerial biomass production in the different components of the tree for both species was evaluated and compared. Mixed planting produced 171.5 t ha-1 of biomass; the shaft represented more than 60% of the biomass. The biomass production in Pinus taeda was superior to Pinus elliottii. The biomass of branches, in turn, was significantly different between species. The stratified tree technique revealed that biomass production in the stand was lower than the biomass obtained by the direct method. In this technique, the biomass (t ha-1) was superior to Pinus elliottii, due to the frequency of individuals in the forest census being higher in the central diameter class, and the species having a larger number of individuals in the stand.

Published: October 2021

Abstract: This article examines kitab kuning (lit. yellow books: i.e, traditional or classical Islamic texts taught in pesantrens) and the formation of the religious character of Muslims in Indonesia. The study of religious character values ​​in the 'kitab kuning' was carried out at the State Madrasah Aliyah of the Religious Program (MANPK) MAN 1 Yogyakarta. MAPK provides additional 'kitab kuning' class to students so that they can become superior students in religious insight, nationality and the formation of Muslim character in Indonesia. Therefore, this study is important to determine the formation of Muslim character in Indonesia through learning the 'kitab kuning'. Using qualitative approach, this field research used interviews, observation and documentation in data collection. The result is that the 'kitab kuning' namely Ta'lim al-Muta'allim influences the formation of religious character values ​​for Indonesian Muslims. These character values ​​include; (1) maintaining knowledge, (2) respecting teachers and friends, (3) glorifying books, diligently studying and worshiping, (4) avoiding arrogance and humiliating others, (5) being patience in learning and discussion, (6) maintaining integrity (upholding the value of honesty), and (7) being responsible.
Kiai, Media Siber, Otoritas Keagamaan: Aktivisme Dakwah Virtual Kiai Azaim di Era Pandemi Covid 19
Authors: Fasadena Nova Saha
Published: October 2021

Abstract: This study examines the preaching activities of Kiai on social media in the era of the Covid Pandemic 19. As is known, the presence of this pandemic has forced preachers from Islamic boarding schools to choose da'wah virtually. Kiai Ahmad Azaim, a caretaker of the Salafiyyah Islamic Boarding School Syafi'iyyah Ibrahimy Situbondo, East Java, is one of the Kiai who uses cyber media to carry out his preaching activities which were mostly carried out offline before the pandemic. This study argues that the virtual da'wah activism carried out by Kiai Azaim has implications for a shift in authority and at the same time the Kiai's popularity. Through the method of analyzing the assumptions of Kramer's religious authority, an interesting finding is obtained that in terms of opportunity, Kiai interprets cyber media as the right medium to reach wider congregations. In terms of strength, Kiai understands that the presence of cyber media will not affect the power of the pesantren media or traditional recitation. In terms of rights, Kiai considers that as long as the community continues to use them, their rights need to be fulfilled.
Aksi Prank dalam Perspektif Hadis: Analisis Teks, Konteks, dan Kontekstualisasinya
Authors: Rahmatullah Rahmatullah
Published: October 2021

Abstract: This article departs from the problem of prank actions that often occur unethically in the public sphere. Hadith as arguments containing ethical norms is a relevant reference in addressing this matter. Therefore, this article aims to discuss the prank action from the perspective of the hadith and how the moral ideal of the hadith is implemented in carrying out prank actions. Referring to the hadith about joking and analyzed using Fazlur Rahman's double movement theory, this article sees that the legal status of prank action is situational. Prank actions can be done as long as they prioritize the principle of truth and do not have a negative impact on the surroundings, and vice versa. This is based on the editorial of the hadith which shows the Prophet's prohibition against taking something even though it meant jokes and jokes from the Prophet, which have never been separated from the truth. This hadith was motivated by the context of the Arab society at that time which was dominated by the situation of war and the process of internalizing Islamic teachings so that what the Prophet taught could not be separated from the interests of protection and education. Therefore, the moral ideal lies in an educational, preventive, and protective attitude. These moral ideals are principles that should be implemented in carrying out prank actions so that their actions become legitimate, do not cause negative impacts, and can generate positive responses in the public domain.

Abstract: The religious behavior of the Muslim community cannot be separated from local traditions that run in societies where social interaction. However, in its development, some local traditions are permanent and some have undergone several changes. This study intends to reveal the cultural changes in the acculturation of Islam and local culture in Sumenep Madura, with a sub focus that includes: the factors that underlie the change and the form of cultural change. This type of research is qualitative with a phenomenological approach. Sources of data in this study consisted of religious figures, community leaders, and cultural figures in Sumenep district as the main sources. Data collection was carried out by means of in-depth interviews and participatory observation. The data analysis method used was the Stevick-Colaizzi-Keen phenomenology. The results showed that the factors underlying the occurrence of cultural changes in the acculturation of Islam and local culture were: contact with Islamic culture, a more advanced education system and a less than perfect process of traditional inheritance. The forms of cultural change are small changes and changes that are planned.
Praktik Poligami Masyarakat Kalisat Rembang Pasuruan Tinjauan dalam Perspektif Teori Behavior
Authors: Solikin Nur
Published: October 2021

Abstract: This study examines the practice of polygamy in the Kalisat community from the point of view of behavior theory. The two main questions to be answered in this paper are about views the Kalisat community about polygamy and the process of polygamy in the perspective of behavior theory which places the actor's actions as being affected by the stimulus and then it becomes a new stimulus for the continuation of the practice of polygamy. Through behavior theory as a study tool, this study concludes that polygamy in the perception of the Kalisat community is no different from the view of the majority of jurists who say that polygamy is permissible on the condition that there is justice in it, regardless of what justice is demanded, whether in the material or immaterial fields. Another conclusion, the practice of polygamy carried out by the Kalisat community, on the one hand as acknowledged by one of the informants is a trait that has been passed down from generation to generation, on the other hand, it is also closely related to the community environment which has considered polygamy as a normal thing and therefore they Those who do not have polygamy are considered as "husbands who are afraid of their wives".

Authors: Hasankhani Arezoo , VanZwieten James , Tang Yufei , Dunlap Broc , De Luera Alexandra , Sultan Cornel , Xiros Nikolaos
Published: October 2021

Increased global renewable power demands and the high energy density of ocean currents have motivated the development of ocean current turbines (OCTs). These compliantly mooring systems will maintain desired near-surface operating depths using variable buoyancy, lifting surface, sub-sea winches, and/or surface buoys. This paper presents a complete numerical simulation of a 700 kW variable buoyancy controlled OCT that includes detailed turbine system, inflow, actuator (i.e., generator and variable buoyancy), sensor, and fault models. Simulation predictions of OCT performance are made for normal, hurricane, and fault scenarios. Results suggest this OCT can operate between depths of 38 m to 329 m for all homogeneous flow speeds between 1.0-2.5 m/s. Fault scenarios show that rotor braking results in a rapid vertical OCT system assent and that blade pitch faults create power fluctuations apparent in the frequency domain. Finally, simulated OCT operations in measured ocean currents (i.e., normal and hurricane conditions) quantify power statistics and system behavior typical and extreme conditions.

Forbidden Visibility: Queer Activism, Shari‘a Sphere and Politics of Sexuality in Aceh
Authors: Ichwan Moch. Nur
Published: October 2021

This article aims to explain why organized queer activism emerged in Aceh, but could endure only in about six years (from 2008 to 2014). It is argued that this has mainly caused by massive expansion of ‘shari‘a spheres’ since 2001 supported by national and local government and parliament legal-political back up and societal religio-cultural forces on the one hand, and weak nature of the queer movements as counterpublics, characterized with the inadequate resources mobilization, especially in leadership and in getting support from its social movement communities during the crises on the other hand. Shari‘a, which is heteronormative, have been used as discursive and embodied disciplinary power of sexuality for normalizing and excluding the queer (including lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender/LGBT). Their organized visibility triggered the issuance of the Qanun Jinayah in 2014, which includes punishment for same-sex activities. It caused them to dissolve their own queer organizations.
Kebangkitan Konservatisme Islam: Politik Identitas dan Potret Demokrasi di Indonesia
Authors: Pribadi Yanwar
Published: October 2021

Leonard C. Sebastian, Syafiq Hasyim and Alexander R. Arifianto (eds). 2021. Rising Islamic Conservatism in Indonesia: Islamic Groups and Identity Politics. London and New York: Routledge.This volume discusses the rise of Islamic conservatism in Indonesia that is opposed to the values of pluralism, tolerance, and religious freedom. The authors argue that Islamic conservatism presents an enormous challenge to Indonesia as a multi-religious country that adversely affects its social, cultural, and political situations. They are concerned that Islamic conservatism may distance Indonesia from religious inclusion, and in fact, it may bring the country closer to religious exclusion. They are also worried that religious intolerance is increasingly on the rise, as shown in the cases of the prohibition of the establishment of churches in Muslim neighbourhood, the abuse of the blasphemy law to punish minority groups, the establishment of exclusive ‘sharia’ housing complexes that is intended only for ‘like-minded’ Muslims, and vigilante-style persecutions such as threats, verbal harassment, and physical intimidation against people or groups who are opposed to the perpetrators’ religious views. In addition, the authors also emphasize that there is an ongoing movement among supporters of Islamic conservatism to signify their religious boundaries and at the same time reject those who do not follow their path.
Vocabulary Learning Strategies: The Case of English for Business and Financial Reporting
Authors: Martins Hélder Fanha , Ferro Maria João
Published: October 2021

Among the essential challenges faced by students in foreign language learning processes is vocabulary learning. Lexical competence has been acknowledged as critical to the use of language in which the students’ inadequate knowledge of the vocabulary causes problems in learning a second language. Therefore, learners require being educated with vocabulary in learning strategies when learning a second language. Contemporary research has not scrutinised to the fullest the categories of strategies of vocabulary learning used by learners who are majoring in Accounting.  The main objective of this research was to understand how students use vocabulary learning strategies. For that, we adopted a qualitative approach, based on open-ended individual interviews with fifteen learners. The strategies that were concluded include the monolingual and bilingual dictionary use, usage of several media of English language, learning a word by specific texts, and application of new words in everyday conversation, interrelated to memory, strategies of metacognitive, and determination. These are common strategies and have keenly been used by students.
Codes, Raster, Technologien queerer Erinnerungslandschaften
Authors: Gunkel Henriette
Published: October 2021

Dieser Beitrag fokussiert die Arbeiten von Charlotte Prodger als ein Beispiel für gegenwärtige künstlerische Strategien, die sich bewusst einer Vereinnahmung bzw. einer Kommodifizierung queerer Ästhetiken verweigern und stattdessen die Notwendigkeit einer queeren Selbstbestimmung und damit einer queeren Bewegungsgeschichte (erneut) in den Vordergrund rücken. Insbesondere der 2019 bei der Biennale in Venedig gezeigte Film SaF05 wird dabei im Zentrum der Überlegungen stehen – eine Arbeit, die in gewisser Weise an experimentelle Prozesse des New Queer Cinema anknüpft und die Betrachtenden in und durch queere (Erinnerungs-)Landschaften führt.

The field of Н500 geopotential height over the central part of the second natural synoptic region in January during 1950–2019 is analysed to determine regime characteristics of the Okhotsk tropospheric cyclone and its role in the formation of air temperature anomalies over the eastern coast of Asia. A mechanism of occurrence of extreme surface air temperatures using this technique is presented. Extremely low air temperature in the area of the minimum and related deep through are formed during the years when the Н500 minimum is localized over the Sea of Okhotsk. A methodology for constructing ellipses approximating the Н500 level lines in a small neighborhood of the Н500 minimum is developed, the ellipse characteristics are calculated, and their relation to the tropospheric cyclone evolution is analysed. The characteristics of the ellipses constructed in the neighborhood of the geopotential height minimum outside the Sea of Okhotsk significantly differ from those of the ellipses over the Sea of Okhotsk. A high compression of the ellipses towards the major axis is reported when the Far Eastern through intensity is reduced. In this case, an outflow of warm oceanic air masses to the Sea of Okhotsk is observed. The location of the Н500 minimum and the characteristics of the ellipses located within the center circle may be used to explain reasons for dramatic changes in air temperature in the study region. Keywords: Оkhotsk tropospheric cyclone, Н500 minima centers, extreme surface air temperature, ellipse characteristics
Solvability of pseudobulous conditional optimization problems of the type of many salesmen
Authors: Germanchuk M. S.
Published: October 2021

Formalizing routing problems of many traveling salesman (mTSP) in complex networks leads to NP-complete pseudobulous conditional optimization problems. The subclasses of polynomially solvable problems are distinguished, for which the elements of the distance matrix satisfy the triangle inequality and other special representations of the original data. The polynomially solvable assignment problem can be used to determine the required number of salesmen and to construct their routes. Uses a subclass of tasks in the form of pseudobulous optimization with disjunctive normal shape (\textit{DNS}) constraints to which the task is reduced mTSP. Problems in this form are polynomially solvable and allow to combine knowledge about network structure, requirements to pass routes by agents (search procedures) and efficient algorithms of logical inference on constraints in the form of \textit{DNS}. This approach is the theoretical justification for the development of multi-agent system management leading to a solution mTSP. Within the framework of intellectual planning, using resources and capabilities, and taking into account the constraints for each agent on the selected clusters of the network, the construction of a common solution for the whole complex network is achieved.
Elder abuse within the family environment: a systematic review

Published: October 2021

Background: Fundamental freedoms and human rights should be inviolable throughout life, without prejudice, ensuring the individual’s highest possible level of physical and mental health. However, mistreatment of the elderly remains a major public health problem in today’s society. The main objective of this systematic review was to identify the variables that influence elder abuse. The secondary objectives were to identify the demographic characteristics of caregivers of older adults who reside in their homes; determine whether there was a kinship relationship between caregivers and older adults; identify the degree of functional dependence of older adults; and determine the prevailing types of abuse in the home environment.
Methods: We conducted a literature search according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses standards on December 26 and 27, 2019 in the SCIELO, CUIDEN, CINAHL, PubMed and Google Scholar databases. The search process was conducted by two independent reviewers using the same methodology, and their discrepancies were resolved by consensus.
Results: A total of 46 cross-sectional studies and one case-control study were selected. The cross-sectional articles showed poor and fair methodological quality, whereas the case-control study presented good methodological quality. Limited evidence suggests that being abused is more often associated with being female, having a lower income, having cognitive or functional impairment, having mood disorders and having a first-degree relationship with the abuser. The qualitative analysis also showed conflicting evidence regarding the victims’ educational level.
Conclusions: The results of this systematic review show that there are numerous risk factors that increase the prevalence of abuse. Further research and review studies are needed in this area.
Efecto de los métodos de representación de movimiento sobre variables funcionales propias del baloncesto: un ensayo clínico aleatorizado piloto

Published: October 2021

Introducción: Se ha sugerido que tanto la imaginería motora (IM) como la observación de acciones (OA) son métodos efectivos en el aprendizaje de una acción motora determinada y para producir un aumento del rendimiento de ciertas habilidades motoras. Esto se debe a que comparten una base neurofisiológica común en el sistema de las neuronas espejo.
Objetivos: El objetivo del estudio fue determinar si la IM y la OA, combinadas con un programa de actividad física, son más efectivas en la mejora de las variables clave en el baloncesto como el salto, la precisión y la velocidad.
Métodos: Se realizó un ensayo clínico aleatorizado. Un total de 16 participantes asintomáticos fueron distribuidos en tres grupos de intervención diferentes: grupo placebo (n=5), grupo de IM (n=6) y grupo de OA (n=5).
Resultados: El grupo de OA presentó un aumento en la velocidad (p<0,001; d=4,53; (p< 0,001, d=5.53), precisión (p<0,001, d=3,47) y salto horizontal (p<0,001, d=0,77). Los cambios en el grupo de IM destacaron mayoritariamente en el salto horizontal (p<0,001, d=0,51). No se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los grupos de forma posterior a la intervención.
Conclusiones: La IM y la OA, junto con un programa específico de entrenamiento de baloncesto, resultaron ser intervenciones efectivas en la mejora de las diferentes habilidades estudiadas en la fase temprana del aprendizaje motor.

Published: October 2021

Objetive: The main objective of this study was to analyze whether there were differences in dynamic balance and postural stability in relation to the level of disability in patients with chronic low back pain.
Methodss: This is an observational study in which 60 patients with nonspecific chronic low back pain were included. All patients received a sociodemographic questionnaire, the visual analogue scale (VAS) and a series of self-reported psychological scales. To complete the evaluation, physical tests were performed in which dynamic balance and postural stability were measured.
Results: Student’s t-test revealed that there were significant differences between the groups in dynamic balance with the right leg and the left leg. In contrast, there were no significant differences between the groups for the reach functional test in forward direction, left direction and right direction.
Conclusion: In conclusion, our study demonstrates that patients with chronic low back pain with high levels of disability present significantly poorer dynamic balance compared with those with low levels of disability. In contrast, no significant differences were found between the groups in terms of static stability.
Introduciendo la dimensión motora dentro de la conceptualización de la experiencia del dolor
Authors: La Touche Roy
Published: October 2021

En este planteamiento teórico se propone un diseño y re-conceptualización de la experiencia dolorosa manteniendo el enfoque multidimensional, pero introduciendo una dimensión más, que se denomina “comportamiento motor”.La dimensión del comportamiento motor incluye todas los procesos y respuestas asociadas a la experiencia dolorosa que pueden manifestarse de forma adaptativa o desadaptativa y que influyen de forma directa sobre el procesamiento y la modulación del dolor y además interactúan de forma circundante con los procesos afectivos-motivacionales, los sensoriales y los cognitivos.
