Authors: GILL K. K. , BHATT KAVITA , KAUR BALJEET , SANDHU SANDEEP SINGH
Published: December 2023

The present study aims to explore the effectiveness of Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) models in forecasting meteorological time series data exhibiting seasonal patterns. We compared the performance of SARIMA models with different configurations and evaluate their forecasting accuracy using real-world meteorological datasetsfor three different agroclimatic zones of Punjab (sub mountainous region, central region and south west region) was analyzed to forecast mean monthly maximum air temperature, minimum air temperature and rainfall. The weather data was used from 1984-2022 for sub-mountainous zone (Ballowal Saunkhri), 1970-2022 for Central zone (Ludhiana) and 1977-2022 for south west zone (Bathinda). The results provide insights into the suitability and limitations of SARIMA models for meteorological forecasting and offer practical recommendations for practitioners and researchers in the field. The goodness of fit was tested against residuals using Ljung-Box test. The accuracy of the model was tested using Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and root square mean error (RMSE). The model achieved Mean Absolute Errors (MAE) ranging from 0.61 to 0.78 for maximum temperature, 0.74 to 0.49 for minimum temperature, and 32.12 to 45.44 for rainfall, with lower MAE values indicating higher predictive accuracy. The fitted model was able to capture dynamics of the temperature time series and produce a sensible forecast. However, the model was unable to forecast rainfall series efficiently.
Flash drought in Odisha- prediction, impact assessment, coping strategies: Current status and future strategies
Authors: PANDA R. K. , MOHANTY U. C. , DASH SUBHAPRADA , PARHI CURIE
Published: December 2023

A detailed review was done on the past studies conducted by the researchers on climate change and variability, particularly for the Indian conditions having a typical monsoon climate. The short-term droughts (flash droughts) occurring due to the prolonged dry spells, heat waves, soil moisture deficits, which are caused due to the climate variability were also investigated. Accurate prediction techniques used for flash drought (FD), assessment of its impact on agriculture and farmers’ income as well as appropriate coping strategies recommended by different researchers to minimize the losses in crop yield and farmers’ income were analyzed.  The total loss in crop yield was found to increase with increase in land size; however, per acre loss was higher for smaller holdings. It was observed that the resource crunch small and marginal farmers particularly belonging to SC/ST were worst sufferers due to their inability to adopt appropriate coping strategies such as: crop insurance, short duration climate resilient cultivars, low-interest loans from financial institutions etc. It was inferred that the FD needs special attention particularly for the state of Odisha, where a majority of the population are engaged in agriculture and its allied activities. Agriculture accounts for around 30 per cent of the net state domestic product (NSDP). Investigations of the past studies revealed that the western Odisha regions are most vulnerable to climate change and variability and to the FD caused by the climate variability. The small and marginal tribal farmers of western Odisha whose sole source of income is from agriculture, with low affordability, are worst affected. To cope with these natural calamities, they need to adopt coping strategies namely, going for a variety of sources of income, cultivation of short-duration climate resilient varieties, in-situ rainwater conservation and use for life-saving irrigation, crop insurance, and low interest loans as well as low-cost post-harvest techniques for the perishable crop produce etc.
A Panel Examination of Economic Growth and Environmental Pressure in the Middle East and South Asia
Authors: Ullah Ehsan
Published: December 2023

The study observes the relationship between environmental scarcity and per capita income through carbon dioxide in twenty-six countries from 1990 to 2020. The detailed objective is to find whether the projected associations validate the inverted U-shaped hypothesis as demonstrated by the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC). Using panel fixed and random effects valuation procedures, the manuscript finds the negative and significant impact of income on pollution, which proves the validity of EKC. But energy consumption, population and industrial sectors have positive effects on the environment. Besides this, we also found inverted U curve status by using generalize method of moments (GMM) technique. Therefore, we reveal that the increase in income will reduce the pollution in our study sample.
Heterobasidion root rot infections on Scots pine : A cryptic threat to sustainable forest management in Sweden
Authors: Youssef Khaled
Published: December 2023

Root rot caused by Heterobasidion poses a severe threat to sustainable forestry in managed Scots pine stands in Sweden. In Scots pine, the disease remains hidden in the roots, leading to tree mortality and growth losses. Its cryptic nature often results in underestimated losses and insufficient management action. This thesis aims to highlight the issues posed by Heterobasidion in typical forest conditions, explores more efficient methods for disease identification, and assess the potential for future breeding of resistance in Scots pine. This work has been conducted under a combination of field and greenhouse conditions. Scots pine trees in stands designated as low-risk sites for Heterobasidion infection were examined for signs of infection in the crown. Subsequently, trees were uprooted, and samples were analysed for the presence of Heterobasidion infection. Drone imagery was used, and bud samples were retrieved for genetic analyses. In the greenhouse, the histological response to infection was analysed. A key finding of this study was the high prevalence of hidden infections in the roots of Scots pine trees on low-risk sites. Furthermore, the prevalence of these infections was positively correlated with site index, meaning that trees on higher-fertility soils were more likely to be infected. This finding calls for a change in forest management practices, specifically the application of stump treatment to Scots pine wherever Heterobasidion annosum is present in Sweden. Scots pine's response to infection, characterized by the formation of traumatic resin ducts, is local and impractical for effective disease detection or dating of infections. The use of drones equipped with RGB sensors demonstrated promising results, warranting further interest and development. Research is needed to explore how this technology can be applied to identifying Heterobasidion among other stressors. Heterobasidion is clearly a significant issue in Swedish forestry that deserves more attention. This thesis establishes that a promising genetic component can aid in selecting more resistant trees. In summary, this thesis underscores the cryptic nature of Heterobasidion disease on Scots pine, introduces available tools, and highlights the promising potential for further development.

The goal is to assess the short-term profitability of IPOs as well as the middle/long-term evolution of this profitability. As a result, we evaluated short-term performance using both raw and adjusted beginning returns. Cumulative abnormal returns and buy and-hold abnormal returns were used to calculate long-term performance, with abnormal returns adjusted for the market index and market model. We came to two primary findings by applying those methodologies to the eleven (11) IPOs that took place on the RSES between September 16th, 1998 and December 31st, 2011. To begin, our data demonstrate that RSES IPOs had a large initial undervaluation throughout this time time, and that the modification of early market index returns had a negative influence on them. Then, in the medium/long run, holding these companies results in underperformance relative to the market portfolio. However, the long-term performance with buy-and-hold abnormal returns (BHARs) is less deteriorated than the one with cumulative abnormal returns (CARs). Those results imply that, buying IPOs at the offer price is profitable to investors in the short run and the holding of those stocks in the middle and long run must be done through the buy-and-hold investment strategy.

The coronavirus disease-19 pandemic and the impact of Sino-US trade have accelerated and intensified changes in consumer behavior and promoted the motherboard industry’s digital transformation. However, before entering the implementation stage of digital transformation, enterprises need to examine their readiness. Therefore, we hope to provide a reference for the motherboard industry in the implementation stage of digital transformation in the face of fast-changing market demands by constructing a digital transformation maturity assessment scale. Previously, maturity assessments were performed for manufacturing and smart manufacturing. The digital transformation maturity assessment of the motherboard industry lacks rigorous research in relevant literature. Therefore, this study uses the current state of the motherboard industry to assess its digital transformation maturity and uses the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and expert interviews to summarize and analyze the assessment mode of the digital transformation maturity of the motherboard industry. By analyzing digital transformation maturity and using an objective assessment scale, we can understand the current state of operations and set the right direction. This enables enterprises to obtain maximum benefits with limited resources when facing rapid changes in consumer behavior. We further show the implications of the industry’s operations, and finally, provide practicalrecommendations and conclusions.

NFTs, DIGITAL WORLDS AND BRAND PROTECTION IN FASHION: AN UK/ EUROPEAN INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PERSPECTIVE
Authors:   Nottingham Trent University, Lapatoura Ioanna
Published: December 2023

Two years into the metaverse utopia and with the promising launches of metaverse Fashion Weeks for two years in a row, the creative industries have not yet lost their enthusiasm for experimenting with digital worlds. In practice, brand owners ‘mint’ non-fungible tokens,or NFTs, associated with their real-world or purely digitalassetsthat most commonly enjoy intellectual property (IP) protections, such asfashion designs. Those can be sold at dedicated NFT marketplaces, but are often interoperable, or capable of being used across a number of different digital worlds. This articleendeavours to shed light into the following key question: to what extent intellectual property rights vested into real-world creations can be transposed into the digital and by extension, whether the legal protection offered can be given its full effect in a digital unregulated space, where users’ identities are anonymous or pseudonymous. By weighing the expected benefits and losses from a UK & EU intellectual property perspective, the authorquestions: Are NFTs and the metaverse more than a gimmick? And hence, is the metaverse a market worth investing for fashion brands? The articlefirst exploresthe metaverse for fashion, as well as designers’ andbrands’ activity in this novel market space, followed by an in-depth discussion on the intellectual property question posed.
THE US “METABIRKINS” CASE IN THE LIGHT OF EU IP AND CONSUMER PROTECTION LAW
Authors:   Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Tzoulia Eleni
Published: December 2023

In early 2023 a United States (US) court ruled that a crypto art collection named “Metabirkins”, depictingthe famous “Birkin” bag of Hermès, infringedtrademark rights. This ruling conferred Hermès the power to ban the commercial exploitation of Metabirkins by their designer, through a permanent injunction order. By the time that order was issued, however, several Metabirkins had already been sold to third parties. Taking this case as a point of reference, thispaper examinescrypto art transactions from the perspective of EU intellectual property (IP) and consumer protection law. First, it clarifies the conditions under which the purchasers and licensees of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) fall under the consumer concept. Then, it examines whether the critical facts would constitute a trademark infringement in the EU, and what would have been the impact of such an infringement on the rightful use of the NFTs by their right-holders. Finally, the paper discussesDirective 2019/770 in protectingconsumersand itsapplicability in the blockchain ecosystem.

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Shipping is the world's largest trade and also one of the most dangerous. Safety of life at sea, the environment at sea, and 80% of world trade depend on professional and competent seafarers. Ziarati (2006) identified that poor communication as one of the most significant factors in accidents at sea and ports. SMCP is a collection of words or phrases in English which is supported by the international community means of communication at sea then developed and adapted to IMO (International Maritime Organization) standards. SMCP aims to explain external communication phrases such as communication between ships, between ships and land parties such as ports. The main goal is to reduce language problems in communicating at sea and also to avoid misunderstandings that can lead to accidents. So, it is possible to learn vocabulary in SMCP to achieve maximum results if it is done in a pleasant atmosphere. This study uses a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method. The population in this study was the cadets of the diploma program majoring in Nautica in the second semester of The Surabaya Shipping Polytechnic (2015-2016) academic year, amounting to 110 people. The sample of this study was 20 cadets in class C. In this study, the result in question was the use of games to support the learning of maritime English SMCP vocabulary.

Noken merupakan salah satu benda budaya orang Papua yang bukan sekedar merupakan sarana atau alat. Lebih dari itu, memiliki makna filosofi yang mengakar kuat dalam masyarakat Papua terutama yang mendiami wilayah pegunungan. Penggunaannya dalam sistem pemilihan umum (Pemilu) khususnya sebagai pengganti kotak suara, merupakan apresiasi terhadap nilai budaya dan kearifan lokal masyarakat. Secara historis penggunaan noken dalam pemilihan umum merupakan spontanitas masyarakat dalam pesta bakar batu dan belum diketahui siapa pencetusnya dan kapan dimulai. Dari aspek hukum (secara hirarki), belum diatur dalam peraturan perundang-undangan namun yang bisa digunakan sebagai dasar atau acuan, yaitu Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Republik Indonesia Nomor: 47-48/PHPU.A-VII/2009 Tentang Hasil Pemilu Legislatif Kabupaten Yahukimo dan Putusan Nomor 1/PHPU.PRES-XII/2014 tentang Pemilu Presdien dan Wakil Presdien 2014.

Partisipasi masyarakat merupakan salah satu unsur penting yang harus diperhatikan dalam Pembentukan Peraturan Daerah (Perda). Undang-Undang No. 12 tahun 2011 tentang pembentukan peraturan perundang-undangan, dalam pasal 96 secara jelas mengatur mengenai Partisipasi Masyarakat Dalam Pembentukan Peraturan Perundang-Undangan termasuk Perda. Undang- Undang No. 23 tahun 2014 tentang Pemerintahan Daerah, dalam pasal 354 juga mengatur mengenai partisipasi masyarakat dalam pembentukan peraturan daerah. Dalam Peraturan Menteri Dalam Negeri Nomor 80 Tahun 2015 tentang Pembentukan Produk Hukum Daerah terdapat satu pasal yang mengatur tentang partisipasi masyarakat yaitu Pasal 166, dimana dalam pasal tersebut mengatur bahwa masyarakat berhak memberikan masukan secara lisan dan/atau tertulis dalam pembentukan peraturan daerah, peraturan kepala daerah, peraturan bersama kepala daerah dan/atau peraturan DPRD. Partisipasi masyarakat ini merupakan salah satu bentuk partisipasi politik masyarakat yang sangat penting dalam rangka menciptakan good governance. Oleh karena itu pelaksanaan partisipasi masyarakat dalam pembentukan peraturan perundang-undangan termasuk Perda haruslah diatur secara jelas

Buckwheat is a pseudocereal from the Polygonaceae family. Two species from this family are commercially exploited – common buckwheat and tartary buckwheat. Buckwheat comes from China, although in recent years, the highest production has been noted in Russia. With its nutritional composition (mainly rutin), it has a beneficial effect on human health. Rutin is mainly contained in the flowers and leaves of buckwheat, and it has antidiabetic, neuroprotective and antioxidant properties; it improves blood pressure and lowers cholesterol levels. In addition to rutin, buckwheat contains bioactive peptides that serve as trypsin inhibitors and have antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Buckwheat found its use mainly in the field of food and feed production. Amplification polymorphism detection techniques are currently used for the genomic analyses of buckwheat, with 8,884 available markers that include 756 loci. The most frequently used type of molecular markers in buckwheat is the microsatellite markers, which form tandem repeats of short nucleotide motifs. The total number of microsatellites in the tartary buckwheat genome is 37,572, with a frequency of 83.25 microsatellites per 1 Mb. Based on their genetic variability, the buckwheat varieties can be divided into the European and Asian groups, with a lower diversity among the varieties in the European group. Genomic analyses can reveal the genetic relatedness or differences between the individual varieties, as well as losses in genetic purity. The transcriptomic analyses are primarily devoted to the expression of genes responsible for the synthesis of flavonoids, but also those involved in the plant's defense mechanisms, development etc. Molecular analyses revealed that the expression of genes supporting the synthesis of rutin can be favorably influenced by light, darkness, methyl jasmonate, abscisic acid etc. Some buckwheat genes were introduced into Arabidopsis, which subsequently showed improved properties, for example, resistance to drought. These findings not only enhance our understanding of buckwheat at a fundamental level but also hold practical significance for breeding programs focused on enhancing nutritional and agronomic traits in buckwheat varieties.

Since the potential link between virulence genes and bacterial antibiotic resistance is of great importance in medical aspects, the properties of such a link were thoroughly investigated in this work. Sixty bacterial isolates were collected from patients with urinary tract infection (UTI) who visited the medical lab at the College of Science/the University of Al-Kufa. Preservation and sub-culture of these isolates were performed according to the guidelines of microorganism's care and the Research Committee of Al-Qasim Green University. Several phenotypic tests were performed involving hemolysis, haemagglutination, serum resistance, and biofilm formation. Genotypic analysis of virulence genes (biofilm and Iss) and antibiotics resistance genes (blaAmpC, blaTEM, blaSHV-5, and blaCTX-M) were measured using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique. All isolates of P. mirabillis were extracted as positive for the serum resistance test with 100%, while a percentage of than less 14% was observed with isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. From the acquired results of the biofilm formation test, it was revealed that all bacterial isolates exhibited negative results except in isolates of E. coli, Proteus mirabillis, and Enterococcus faecalis. As far as the genetic study is concerned, the biofilm gene was abundant and was also found in 95% of bacterial isolates followed by an increase in the serum survival (Iss) gene by 86.66%. Interestingly, the genotype study of antibiotic resistance genes showed that both blaAmpC and blaTEM had significantly greater prevalence in all isolates compared to blaSHV-5 and blaCTX-M at P≤ 0.05. In addition, the percentages of the prevalence of blaAmpC and blaTEM were significantly higher (93.33 and 71.66), respectively, compared to the respective values found in blaSHV-5 and blaCTX-M (20%, 46.66%). From the correlation findings, a significant constructive association between virulence and resistance to antibiotic profile was found (r=0.957, P=0.000). In conclusion, our work provides valuable insights for better understanding the potential link between genotypic (virulence genes) and phenotypic traits (antibiotic resistance). Future research holds the potential to deepen our comprehension of the intricate relationship between virulence genes and antibiotic resistance, thereby making substantial contributions to the development of more efficacious approaches for the management of bacterial infections. This recommendation extends to fellow researchers in the field.
