ESTIMATION OF WATER QUALITY STATUS FOR DRINKING WATER SOURCES OF DOIWALA BLOCK OF DEHRADUN DISTRICT, UTTARAKHAND
Authors: Dwivedi Sonu
Published: April 2022

The ground water is contaminated, its quality cannot be restored by stopping the pollutants from the source. The common pollutants of groundwater are discharge of agricultural, domestic, and industrial waste, pesticides etc., which leads to water- borne diseases. Water-borne diseases may be of microbial origin such as diarrhea, dysentery, cholera, typhoid and chemical origin such as flurosis and methemoglobinemia. Water Quality Index (WQI) provides a single number that expresses overall quality at certain location and time based on several water quality parameters. The objective of an index is to turn complex quality data in to information that is understandable and useable by the public.
The present study was undertaken to assess the suitability of 8 drinking water sources of Doiwala block of Dehradun for drinking purpose during pre- and post-monsoon seasons of the year 2021. The obtained water quality data of drinking water sources was further applied for the calculation of weighted arithmetic Water Quality Index (WQI). Most of the water sources during pre-monsoon  season were  graded  as ‘A’ with  good  quality  due to having low WQI values. However, Two sites were found with ‘B’ class, another two were classified as ‘C’ grade owing to higher WQI values and thus, categorized as having poor water quality.  Two sampling sites were recorded with highest WQI value (59.29) and (68.24) its water quality was found poor for drinking purpose. During post-monsoon season, all analyzed water sources showed low WQI values, which indicates ‘A’ class i.e. excellent water quality. The higher WQI values during pre-monsoon season have been inferred owing to relatively higher calcium, magnesium and iron concentrations assessed during the period of study.

Preliminary Exploration of Dharma Mudra and Social Entrepreneurship for Humanistic Buddhism
Authors:   Department of Management, Fo Guang University, Taiwan, Lu Lung-Tan
Published: April 2022

Dharma Mudra includes: (1) All phenomena are impermanent; (2) all Dharma are not-self, and (3) the eternity is Nirvana. The purpose of social entrepreneurs is to transform the society, not to make profits. Their spirit is to solve social issues in the way of commercial power and business operation. Venerable Master Hsing Yun spared no effort in promoting Buddhism throughout his life and is a successful social entrepreneur in our views. He believes that the “Buddhism of freeing from desire" may be practiced by a small number of practitioners and monks. On the other hand, the majority of sentient beings must implement the “Buddhism of reducing desire". In an interview, Venerable Master Hsing Yun said that Fo Guang Shan has hundreds of Buddhist temple and dojos all over the world, and they were not built by one person, they were all made by everyone. If you want to be successful yourself, you must first let others succeed, and you will succeed as living among the sentient beings.

Forest fire is one of the leading causes of forest and wildlife loss. The objective of this study was to use satellite imagery and Geographic Information System techniques to assess the forest fire risk zonation map of the Aalital rural municipality. This rural municipality is a part of the Sudurpaschim province, Nepal; is prone to forest fires. Four fire risk zones were established in the study area i.e. very high, high, medium, and low-risk zone. Thematic layers were derived from topographic maps and satellite imageries. For the delineation of fire risk zones, a multi-parametric weighted index model i.e. the FRI (Fire Risk Index) method was adopted. The fire incidence data provided by MODIS were used to validate the resulting forest fire risk zone map. About 25.17% of the total study area lies under the very high-risk zone followed by 46.51% under high risk, 25.68% under medium risk, and 2.62% under the low-risk zone. It can be inferred that the majority of the area is at high risk of forest fire. This map of fire risk zone can help in disaster and forest management as valuable data to prepare effective measures for appropriate fire risk management in the area.

FERTILITY OUTCOME IN PATIENTS WITH PREVIOUS ECTOPIC PREGNANCY
Authors: Yasmin Sumaira , Zeb Laila , Mehmood Sumbal , Shaheen Uzma
Published: April 2022

Introduction: Ectopic pregnancy is the commonest gynecological emergencies. If not treated timely, it places major morbidity upon future fertility and family. Ectopic pregnancy presents a major health problem for women of childbearing age. The increased incidence of ectopic pregnancy has been partially attributed to improved ability in making an earlier diagnosis. Anything that hampers the migration of the embryo to the endometrial cavity could predispose women to ectopic gestation. The most logical explanation for the increasing frequency of EPs is previous pelvic infection; however, most patients presenting with an EP have no identifiable risk factor.

Objective: To determine the frequency of fertility outcome (intrauterine pregnancy and extrauterine pregnancy) in patients having history of ectopic pregnancy.

Materials and Methods: A total of 92 patients having history of ectopic pregnancy were included in the study in a consecutive manner and assessed for fertility outcome in terms of extrauterine or intrauterine pregnancy. The study utilized descriptive cross sectional study design. The study settings was department of gynecology, Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar. The study duration was from 1st January 2019 to 31st December 2020.

Results: The mean age of the sample was 30.3 + 6.1 years. The mean parity of the sample was 2.1 + 1.5, mean BMI was 26.4 + 3.5kg/m2 and mean gestational age at presentation was 6.7 + 2.1 weeks. With regards to fertility outcome, 39.1% women had extrauterine pregnancy and 60.9% had intrauterine pregnancy. Extrauterine pregnancy though less than intrauterine is still a significant problem in the study’s population with previous history of ectopic pregnancy.

Recommendation: The study recommend more research projects particularly interventional studies for proper management of ectopic pregnancy and reduce the burden of extrauterine pregnancies so that even with history of ectopic pregnancy, term delivery can be assured.

Published: April 2022

This study presents a conceptual framework for determining the effects of Market Orientation, Entrepreneurial Orientation, and Information Technology on the performance of small and medium-sized firms (SMEs) in Nigeria. The resource-based value theory was used to explain the elements affecting SMEs' performance. Furthermore, this study’s conceptual framework is based on the data derived from a newly constructed questionnaire. 130 copies of the questionnaires were distributed to the CEO / director and managers of SME organisations in Ogun State, Nigeria. Out of the 210 questionnaires, half or 105 were returned and analysed.  The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software was used to analyse the empirical data. It was found that the performance of SMEs organizations is significantly influenced by two factors, market orientation and entrepreneurial orientation, while there is no significant relationship between information technology and SME performance. This study provides valuable input for SMEs organisations by helping them to strategise future operational plan in various industries, including the education sector. The main limitation of this study is that has a limited sample size, and it did not include external performance indicators outside of procurement. As these indicators could provide additional insight into the success of SMEs, future research could consider including them as variables.

Data is the new fuel. With the expansion of the global technology, the in-creasing standards of living and with modernization, data values have caught a great height. Now a days, nearly all top MNCs feed on data. Now, to store all this data is a prime concern for all of them, which is relieved by the Data Structures, the systematic way of storing data. Now, once these data are stored and charged in secure vaults, it’s time to utilize them in the most efficient way. Now, there are a lot of operations that needs to be performed on these massive chunks of data, like searching, sorting, inserting, deleting, merging and so more. In this paper, we would be comparing all the major sorting algorithms that have prevailed till date. Further, work have been done and an inequality in dimension of time between the four Sorting algorithms, Bubble, Selection, Insertion, Merge, that have been discussed in the paper have been proposed.

Geometric Design of Speed Control Humps in Bhubaneswar City
Authors: Sahoo P. K
Published: April 2022

One of the basic requirements in traffic engineering is to control the speed of various categories of vehicles over roads for the safety of road users. Various categories of roads are designed under different situations for designated design speeds over which vehicles can travel with convenience and safety. The use of road humps in city streets is an efficient way of controlling speed of automobiles. This paper describes a study conducted to establish practical geometric design guidelines of speed control humps for the use of road engineers. A statistical relationship between geometric characteristics of speed control humps and speeds of the automobiles is developed and models have been suggested for the use of practicing engineers. This relationship can be used as a tool for designing hump geometry for a particular hump-crossing speed. One of the important features of the study is the development of a simple procedure for the road hump design.

This study presents results of integrated larger foraminiferal biostratigraphy, lithofacies and stable carbon isotope (13 C org) analysis carried out in the Sylhet Limestone of Dillai Parbat Limestone Mine succession, Karbi Anglong District, Assam. Larger foraminiferal assemblages assign a middle Eocene age to the studied succession of Sylhet Limestone. The Shallow Benthic Zone (SBZ) 13 and SBZ 16-18 and a barren interval in between is recognized in the studied part of the Sylhet Limestone. The SBZ 13 Zone (early Lutetian) is represented by fossiliferous limestone at the base of the section and is inferred to have been deposited in a subtidal environment. The overlying barren interval lies in the arenaceous interval and was likely deposited in a subtidal channel sand shoaling bars. The upper part of the section ismarked by SBZ16-18 (late Lutetian to Bartonian) and was deposited in subtidal channel sand inner neritic zone environments, followed by intertidal marl to subtidal limestone. The organic carbon stable isotopic data reveals a sharp negative excursion at about 34-35m of the succession, which may be correlated with Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO) and/or vegetation types. This and earlier studies from India and elsewhere indicate that during the middle Eocene, the Neo-Tethys Sea was open and connected through the East and West coasts of India, Northeast India, western Himalaya, and most of the Middle East and southeast Europe. This vast area produced enormous amount of petroleum.
Paleoenvironmental inferences based on benthic foraminifera from the Uitpa Formation (Guajira, Colombia)
Authors: Barragan Montilla Sofia , Sanchez Quinonez Alberto
Published: April 2022

The Uitpa Formation is a lithostratigraphic unit that crops out in the Guajira peninsula, northeastern Colombia in the Cocinas Basin. This formation consists mainly of marly and argillaceous mudstones of gray to light brown color, intercalated with sandstone and calcarenite beds. The lower contact with de Siamana Formation is unconformable, and at the top the contact with the Jimol Formation is conformable at Uitpa. These units contain an abundant and diverse fauna of planktic and benthic foraminifera that has not been studied in detail yet. In this research, two outcrop sections from the upper Guajira containing the Uitpa Formation were analyzed: the Pisuuluu hill and Jososuwou creek sections. Planktic foraminifera were extracted and taxonomically classified, allowing to assign an age of Chattian (Late Oligocene) (planktic foraminifera biozones O6 - O7). This investigation presents for the first time in Colombia a paleoenvironmental reconstruction integrating various methodologies using quantitative and qualitative analyses in benthic foraminifera. From these analyses an outer neritic to upper bathyal paleodepth was inferred, with environments characterized by high organic matter inputs in eutrophic conditions for both sections. Oxygenation levels were higher in the Pisuuluu hill section, represented by high diversity heterogeneous assemblages, while for the Jososuwou creek section oxygenation was very low producing stressed environments and low diversity homogeneous assemblages.
Roadian (earliest Guadalupian, middle Permian) radiolarians from the Guadalupe Mountains, West Texas, USA Part II: Spongy radiolarians (?Entactinaria and Spumellaria)
Authors: Nestell Galina P. , Nestell Merlynd K.
Published: April 2022

Spongy radiolarians are described from strata of the Roadian Stage (Guadalupian, middle Permian) exposed in a small quarry (Quarry section) in the Guadalupe Mountains,West Texas. These radiolarians are assigned to the orders Entactinaria (conditionally) and Spumellaria. Two new families Hegleriidae and Glomispinidae are proposed. The genus Hegleria Nazarov and Ormiston and its two species, H. mammilla (Sheng andWang) and H. mammifera Nazarov and Ormiston are discussed. Based on an analysis of the distribution and preservation of the illustrated specimens of these two species in the literature, it is proposed that the species H. mammilla should be considered as nomen dubium. The genus Uberinterna Sashida and Tonishi and one species Copicyntra simulens Nazarov and Ormiston are revised. Five new genera, Texasospongites, Allenispongus, Cutoffella, Glomispina, and Orminazarella, and ten new species Texasospongites fazleevi, Allenispongus nobilis, Cutoffella perplexa, Glomispina mirifica, Uberinterna hearstae, U. ancestralis, Provisocyntra vancouveringi, Orminazarella nuda, Paracopicyntra bella, and Copiellintra variabilis are described.

The present study has been carried out from the NGHP sediment core (NGHP-01-17A) of northeast Indian Ocean on different siliceous microfossils represented by diatoms and radiolarians along with calcareous nannofossils. Samples from the bottommost subunit Ic of the sediment core (684.09 mbsf to 369.62 mbsf) have been analysed. This contribution is the first comprehensive account on the Tortonian diatom assemblages from the offshore of northeast Indian Ocean that has been integrated with the radiolarian zonations. For determining the relative age of the sequence more precisely the obtained dataset also have been correlated to the calcareous nannofossil zones and eventually an attempt has been made to establish an integrated biostratigraphy. Detailed taxonomic analysis of the diatoms reveals the presence of 118 diatom taxa belonging to 49 genera. Three diatom biozones have been determined using CONISS cluster analysis. Based on the index radiolarian taxa in the studied samples, the entire sequence is assignable to RN6, RN7 and RN8 zones. The samples also contain stratigraphic marker taxa of calcareous nannofossils that allow identifying NN9, NN10 and NN11 zones corresponding to CNM13 - CNM16 zones. The ages of the bottommost and topmost sample of the analysed section of the core have been estimated < 10.49 Ma and > 7.39 Ma respectively. To estimate the sedimentation rate an age-depth model has been proposed using diatom, radiolarian and calcareous nannofossil events. All the microfossil assemblages of the present study have been correlated with the known assemblages of late Miocene, specifically Tortonian from DSDP, ODP, IODP expeditions and onshore sediments of Indian Ocean as well as equatorial Pacific Ocean. Diversity analysis has been carried out to quantitatively estimate the diversity and dominance of the diatom taxa. Planktic/benthic ratio of the diatoms has been calculated to evaluate the water depth.

Rise and fall of rotaliid foraminifera across the Paleocene and Eocene times
Authors: Benedetti Andrea , Papazzoni Cesare Andrea
Published: April 2022

Rotaliids are one of the groups of larger foraminifera that quickly recolonized the shallow-water environments after the mass extinction at the end of the Cretaceous. Here we present a summary of the state of the art about their stratigraphic distribution and diversity across the Paleocene and Eocene epochs. Our data suggest that their differentiation at the genus level was very rapid and reached its maximum in the upper Danian SBZ2. Specific diversification, instead, culminated in the upper Thanetian SBZ4, with a second peak during the Cuisian (=upper Ypresian). Successively, the rotaliid diversity definitely declined, whereas other groups of larger foraminifera, and especially Alveolina and Nummulites, became more widespread and flourished with a large amount of species, up to the lower Bartonian SBZ17, when a final drop in rotaliid diversity is recorded. These major changes appear strictly linked to climate warming events such as Late Danian Event (LDE, generic diversification of rotaliids), Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM, faunal turnover followed by abrupt decrease in both generic and specific diversity), Early Eocene Climatic Optimum (EECO, increase in number of K-strategists under oligotrophic conditions) and Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO, ultimate drop in diversity and competition with other larger foraminifera).

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar uma visão sistêmica de inovação no setor público no Brasil por meio da análise temática (BRAUN; CLARKE, 2016), tomando como base as mudanças organizacionais percebidas com relação às inovações implementadas, aliada aos preceitos do Novo Serviço Público (NSP). O método de pesquisa utilizado foi o bibliográfico, de natureza básica e teórico. Como resultado, foram apresentadas as características dos constructos em forma de matriz comparativa sob oito dimensões: propósito; justificativa; surgimento; bases epistemológicas; propostas de indicadores; exemplos de cases; dificuldades de aplicação; e recomendações. Verificou-se que a inovação no setor público brasileiro ainda é, em grande parte, restrita ao produto da mudança, geralmente relacionada às melhorias processuais e do tipo inovação incremental. Sob este aspecto, revelaram-se importantes a colaboração e a coprodução, com o interesse público no centro. Apesar da atual carência de ferramentas administrativas que possibilitem a inclusão cidadã de maneira ativa e não somente deliberativa, existem relatos de avanços tecnológicos que poderiam ser facilitadores para o processo.
