Authors: Jamaluddin Jamaluddin , Triana Neni , Saharuddin Saharuddin
Published: July 2023

Background: The ability and traits that a person possesses in the form of knowledge, skills, and behavioral attitudes required in the workplace are known as human resource competence (HR). Whether a region can adequately manage its domestic issues or not depends in part on the effectiveness of the government machinery.
Aim: The purpose of this study was to empirically determine the effect of human resource competence on the financial performance of the Bireuen district government.
Method: The variables used in this study are human resource competence as the independent variable and financial performance as the dependent variable. The approach used in this study is the quantitative by testing theories through measuring research variables and analyzing data with statistical procedures using SPSS V.22 for Windows. The type of data used in conducting this research is primary data obtained from the results of distributing questionnaires to BKPSDM Bireuen district. The sampling method in this study was saturated sampling method where the samples obtained were 46 respondents.
Findings: The results stated that the direction of the influence of variable X on Y is positive, through the t test where tcount > ttable (9.380 > 2.015) thus Ha is accepted H0 is rejected. The human resource competency variable (X) is able to explain the effect on financial performance (Y) which is equal to 66.7% and the remaining 33.3% is influenced by other variables outside of this study.

ackground: Low levels of education and livelihoods have an impact on household income/income. In general, the biggest expenditure of households with low incomes is for food needs, which if viewed further, is mostly on staple food so that there is an imbalance in household consumption which is eventually alleged to be the cause of malnutrition, especially in children.
Aim: This study aims to determine strategies for increasing rural household income through empowerment and capacity building of household human resources as an effort to overcome stunting.
Method: This is a case study with a qualitative approach. It attempts to capture reality as holistic, complex, dynamic, meaningful and the relationship is interactive/reciprocal. The types of data used in this study are quantitative data types and qualitative data types of required data sources, namely primary data and secondary data. The data needed were collected by means of in-depth interviews, observations, documentation.
Findings: The government seeks to overcome stunting in Kupang, TTS and Manggarai Regencies by empowering the community through several stages such as the first stage, namely making the community aware of the importance of increasing self-capacity, in the second stage, namely the transformation stage, opening people's insights in the form of basic knowledge and skills about the role taken in development in the household and in the community. The last or third stage is the improvement of intellectual abilities ranging from skills to skills that can form initiatives and innovation so that it can usher in a pattern of independence.

Authors: Damiao John , Blair Anthony , Martinez Nicole , Reyes Rachel , Mahon Brenda
Published: July 2023

AIMS: Pressure injuries (PIs) are common issues that can be minimized through the use of pressure-redistributing support surfaces. Cushions that provide immersion and contour are considered the most effective for pressure relief; however, others are readily available on the market. The aim of this study is to determine how a wheelchair equipped with Comfort Tension Seating®(CTS) compares to standard sling seating, foam, and a high-end pressure redistributing contoured cushion.

MATERIALS & METHODS: Pressure redistribution qualities as measured through peak pressure index (PPI) using pressure mapping technology were gathered on four different seating surfaces -standard sling seat, CTS, and two cushion types flat cross-section foam, contoured-cushion, and CTS. Twenty non-disabled participants trialed each cushion for five minutes each. The methods of this study are described and outcomes analyzed by comparing the PPI and comfort of the four cushions.

RESULTS: A Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and related samples Friedman’s two-way analysis of variance by ranks (ANOVA) was calculated. The results show that there is a significant difference between each of the cushions in comfort and pressure redistribution. There was a statistically significant difference in mean PPI between the three groups in which the CTS performed better than the sling and flat cross-section foam, but not quite as good as the high-end contoured cushion (p <.001).

CONCLUSION: While not as optimal as the contoured M2 foam cushion, the CTS seating surface appears to provide superior pressure-redistributing performance compared to sling and flat cross-section foam. This suggests that the CTS could be used as a support surface for many applications, except for individuals with high-level PI risk, without using tilt and recline features.

Tinta negra en el gris del ayer
Authors: Cirio Norberto Pablo
Published: July 2023

La imagen de un país pródigo, exento de conflictos raciales y capaz de recrearse en torno al mestizaje, es parte de los rasgos de identidad de la nación. Un país resultante de conflictos entre pueblos originarios y colonizadores, pero también rehecho en función de los flujos migratorios voluntarios y obligados. Si la figura del crisol conlleva el festejo de la capacidad de composición de una sociedad nueva, también ha funcionado como velo respecto de las diferencias entre los grupos que confluyeron en ella. Y si en los últimos años la presencia viva de las comunidades indígenas provocó investigaciones y reflexiones, no ha sucedido lo mismo, salvo de modo minoritario, en lo que hace a la población de origen africano.

Tanto es así, que funciona como explicación generalizada la idea de extinción de los afroargentinos a partir de la peste de 1871 y de la guerra del Paraguay. La investigación de Norberto Cirio que aquí publicamos muestra esa idea como infundada, porque encuentra una profusa red de publicaciones y, tras ella, de centros comunitarios de la población afroporteña. Si bien el trabajo está centrado en el análisis y la indización de cuatro periódicos, las conclusiones que de él se extraen permiten confrontar con esas ideas establecidas revelando un mapa de Buenos Aires tan multiétnico como heterogéneo culturalmente.
Assessment of TB treatment adherence using computer-assisted self-interviewing
Authors: Hongprasit P. , Sonthisombat P.
Published: July 2023

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the correlation and agreement between computer-assisted self-interviewing (CASI) and home-based unannounced pill counts (HUPC) for assessing anti-TB medication adherence (MA) and to examine the relationship between MA and treatment success.METHODS:
Individual CASI-evaluated MA was compared three times with HUPC MA over the treatment course. The relationship between the two methodologies was determined using correlation coefficients (r) and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC). The association between MA and efficacy was evaluated
using odds ratios (ORs).RESULTS: According to CASI assessments, MA rates of 52 TB patients were 92.2%, 90.6%, and 87.5% at Week 4, 8 and 16–24, respectively, with a strong correlation (r > 0.76) and agreement (ICC > 0.88) with HUPC evaluations. CASI missed one-third
of the non-adherent cases reported by HUPC based on patient adherence status. The treatment success rates of patients with >90% adherence, as measured by CASI and HUPC, did not differ significantly; however, >85% adherence was associated with higher treatment success (OR 45.1) than 90%
adherence (OR 21.9).CONCLUSION: CASI results were comparable to those of HUPC. As it increased the likelihood of successful treatment, a threshold of >85% may be more appropriate than >90% for defining medication-adherent patients.

Conto “O engenheiro”: questões de gênero numa sociedade em mudança
Authors: De Castro Alexandre
Published: July 2023

Essa comunicação pretende utilizar a literatura, particularmente o conto, como fonte de pesquisa em questões de gênero. O Engenheiro, de Roberto Saturnino Braga que compõe Contos de réis (2005), foi a narrativa escolhida em virtude da contradição existente entre a figura feminina e seu ambiente social e familiar. O contexto da obra é a então capital brasileira, Rio de Janeiro, no início do século XX, após a Proclamação da República, momento nacional de consideráveis transformações políticas, sociais, econômicas e nos costumes com vistas a tonar o Brasil um país moderno, assim como era França, denominado pela historiografia como Belle Époque carioca. Assim, nossa abordagem metodológica encontra nas argumentações de Ginzburg (1989) o caminho para o desenvolvimento do propósito desse artigo. Para percebermos nuances na belle époque carioca e parte do cotidiano dessa organização social para além dos dados fornecidos pelo conto, adotamos método do paradigma indiciário, cujo objetivo está em atentar para detalhes aparentemente despercebidos ou desconsiderados, mas que, uma vez apreendidos, fornecem elementos reveladores para a compreensão e entendimento do objeto abordado. A leitura desinteressada do conto pode conduzir o leitor a impressão de que a “Esposa do Engenheiro” padecia de “problemas” traduzidos em estereótipos socialmente construídos.  No entanto, a mulher inominada em O Engenheiro era figura feminina de sua época. Pertencente à classe média estava ciente das transformações pelas quais o país, em particular a cidade do Rio de Janeiro sofriam e demonstrou, ao seu modo e particularmente, insatisfação e imensa vontade de viver conforme novos costumes e mudanças.

Authors: Kuźmińska Magdalena , Gotlib Tomasz , Niemczyk Kazimierz
Published: July 2023

Introduction:  Juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma is a rare benign head and neck neoplasm that develops most commonly in children and young adults in the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses or the orbit. It can have a locally malignant character with a tendency to destroy surrounding structures. The treatment of choice is surgical removal of the lesion. Depending on the location of the tumor and surgeons preferences, it is recommended to use endoscopic or external approach, with the first one being the procedure of choice. Considering the risk of massive intraoperative bleeding, it is necessary to protect blood products before surgery.
  Case report:  We present a case of a 41-year-old patient treated in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery of the Medical University of Warsaw.
Intratympanic injection of dexamethasone for Menires disease. What relief can be expected? A case-series study
Authors: Plainfossé Olivier , El Yagoubi Mohamed , Puechmaille Mathilde , Mom Thierry
Published: July 2023

Introduction: In patients suffering from Menires disease (MD), after failure of oral medical treatment, intratympanic in-jections (IT) may be achieved, among which, IT with dexamethasone (DXM). IT DXM has been reported to be effective on vestibular symptoms but very few reports focus on auditory symptoms.

Aim: Here we assessed its efficacy both in vestibular and auditory symptoms.

Patients and method: Twenty-seven MD patients who suffered from auditory and vestibular symptoms despite previous sys-temic medical treatment, underwent at least one series of five daily consecutive IT DXM. Auditory and vestibular assessment were achieved before IT DXM, and four months afterwards. Patients were ranked according to the vestibular functional level scale of the American Academy of Otolaryngology Head Neck society (1995) at the same periods. A specifically designed qu-estionnaire, focused on auditory symptoms was administered after IT DXM. Comparisons used a Chi-2 test for paired series, with p 0.05 considered significant.

Results: The vestibular functional level shifted significantly towards lower levels, the median shifting from level 4 to 3. There was no complication but two persistent tympanic membrane perforation. Twelve patients (44.4%) had recurrent symptoms, on average 7 months after IT DXM and required additional treatment. Tonal and speech audiometry did not improve, neither the objective auditory and vestibular assessment. Based on the questionnaire, IT DXM was effective on auditory symptoms, at least on tinnitus in 9 cases (33.3%), mainly by lowering its intensity.

Conclusion: IT DXM confirmed its capacity to relieve vestibular and auditory symptoms, in particular tinnitus, even though transiently.

Published: July 2023

Objective: To assess the contributing factors for development of skin changes and local complications in the pediatric and adolescent population who underwent bone-anchored implantation (BAI).

Methods: Retrospective chart review of pediatric and adolescent patients (age 017 years) who underwent BAI for mixed hearing loss, conductive hearing loss, and single-sided deafness, at a tertiary care academic center. Demographic, clinical, implant type and surgical variables were collected and analyzed to identify their contribution to the development of skin changes and local complications.

Results: Thirty-nine BAI surgeries were performed in 28 subjects during the review period. The mean age of implantation was 10.5 3.4 years (516 years). Skin changes and local complications occurred in 61.5% (24/39) of BAIs performed. In total, 75% (18/24) were attributed to local complications, and 25% (6/24) to skin changes. Revision surgery was required in 41.0% (16/39) of cases. The mean age upon revision with either skin changes or local complications, local complications alone, and skin changes alone was 14.6 3.3 years (7.2519), 13.4 4.0 years (7.317), and 16.1 1.2 years (13.817) respectively with no difference between the groups. Among implants with skin changes and local complications the abutment survival was found to be 33.3% at 6.75 years following implantation. No significant difference of demographic and clinical factors was noted when looking at cases with and without skin changes and local complications. Higher rates of skin changes and local complications were noted in two-stage techniques, non-linear incision and the use of absorbable sutures.

Conclusion: Fewer skin changes/local complications were observed with linear incision/punch technique, single stage, and non-absorbable skin sutures. Abutment survival with skin changes and local complications plateaus at 6.75 years following implantation. The potential need for revision surgery and longer abutment replacement during puberty, presumably when scalp soft tissue thickens, should be considered prior to initial implantation of younger children, with information given to their care givers

Sixteen different fertilizer treatments were accessed in a completely randomized block design for their effects on cut- flower grades, media physicochemical properties and foliar nutrient content in carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) cv. Master plants grown under naturally ventilated greenhouse conditions at the Research Farm of Department of Floriculture and Landscaping, Dr Yashwant Singh Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan, Himachal Pradesh, India during 2010 and 2011. Rooted cuttings were planted in a sterilized growing media comprising of soil: FYM: coco peat (2:1:1, v/v). Carnation cultivar Master plants fertilized with treatment comprising of 250 ppm N and K fertigation through urea and MOP + 250 ppm NPK (19:19:19) foliar spray once a week showed significant increase in quality parameters (i.e. percentage of A, B and C - grade flowers based on stem strength) in comparison to the recommended practices. Highest available NPK content in the media (371.03, 37.09, 276.87 kg/ ha) as well as in foliage (2.867, 0.364, 3.954 %) were also recorded with the same treatment.
Physiological disorders in perennial woody tropical and subtropical fruit crops: A review
Authors: KUMAR RAJESH , KUMAR VINOD
Published: July 2023

The productivity as well as the quality of fruit crops is affected to a greater extent due to various physiological disorders. The extremes of environmental variables like temperature, moisture, light, aeration and nutritional imbalances result in disturbances in the plant metabolic activities leading to these disorders. While the symptoms may appear disease-like, they can usually be prevented by altering environmental conditions. In fruit crops, the deficiency of micronutrients causes many more disorders than that of macronutrients. These disorders have become widespread with diminishing use of organic manures, adoption of high density planting, use of rootstocks for dwarfing, disease and salt tolerance, unbalanced NPK fertilizer application and extension of horticulture to marginal lands. To get high quality fruit and yields, micronutrient deficiencies have to be detected before visual symptoms are expressed. This article presents a critical review on cause and characteristics of physiological disorders in important woody perennial fruit crops, viz. mango, litchi, guava, citrus, aonla, pomegranate, sapota, cashew, coconut, bael, ber and jackfruit, besides providing an insight into the gaps and researchable issues. The critical analysis of the nature, origin and causative factors of these non-pathogenic disorders will help in formulation of management strategies, reducing the loss to a significant level.
Modelling and forecasting sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) production in India using hierarchical time-series models
Authors: PAL SOUMEN , PAUL RANJIT KUMAR
Published: July 2023

Hierarchical time-series comprises of several dataset maintaining certain hierarchical relationship among them. There are certain specialized strategies, viz. top-down, bottom-up, middle-out and optimal approaches which take care of predicting future values for such multi-level data. For forecasting of individual series at different levels of hierarchy, a method of aggregation or disaggregation is followed. In the present study, these methodologies are investigated thoroughly. Further, state-wise seasonal sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) moench] production data of India is analyzed by employing the hierarchical forecasting approaches. A comparative study on performance of different methods is carried out from the viewpoint of multi-step-ahead forecasts on the basis of Mean absolute error (MAE) and Root mean square error (RMSE). The findings show that the middle-out technique outperforms other approaches and traditional method of forecasting as well. This fact has been confirmed statistically by using pair-wise t-test. Finally, using the middle-out approach, forecasts of sorghum production for 2015 till 2017 have been carried out at all hierarchical levels. For statistical analysis, R software package has been employed.

Authors: KRISHNA HARE , BHARGAVA R , CHAUHAN NITESH , SHARMA S K
Published: July 2023

A total of 24 varieties of Indian jujube or ber (Ziziphus mauritiana Lamk.) were characterized based on morphological characters, viz. growth habit, foliage, thorn, fruit and stone. The erect growth habit was noticed in two varieties, viz. Dharki No. 1 and Tikadi, while semi-erect growth habit was noticed in majority of the varieties. Three types of leaf shapes were recorded, i.e. ovate, oval and cordate. Dharki No.1 and Safeda Rohtak had ovate leaf shape and Chhuhara Bawal, Jogia, Kaithali, Kala Gola, Katha Phal, Mehrun, Sanaur-5, Seb and Tikadi had cordate shape. While rest of the varieties showed oval shape. Ber varieties could also be categorized based on leaf pubescence on lower side, viz. smooth, sparsely-tomentose and densely-tomentose. Of which, only Tikadi exhibited smooth surface on lower leaf side. Also, Tikadi recorded high branch thorniness. On the basis of fruit maturity, varieties were grouped into early, mid and late. High variability was recorded for the character fruit shape (oblong, oval, ovate, oblate, round and falcate). Eleven varieties showed yellow, 12 varieties depicted greenish-yellow and one variety Tikadi, showed chocolate brown fruit colour at maturity. The varieties were also classified into five groups, on the basis of stone shape, viz. oblong, oval, spindle, club and falcate. The varieties depicted wide variability for various morphological traits, perhaps owing to such differences in the species from which these cultivars have evolved.

The experiment was conducted in the experimental field of Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, Rewa under Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur during the rabi season 2009-2010. The results showed that morphological characters of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var botrytis L.) increased significantly with the different levels of boron and molybdenum at every stage of observation. At 60 DAT, the maximum plant height (34.35 cm), number of leaves/plant (19.45), leaf length (32.02 cm), leaf width (28.31 cm) and stem girth (5.14 cm) were recorded in treatment T9, whereas the minimum plant height (32.50 cm), number of leaves/plant (16.49), leaf length (29.07 cm), leaf width (25.72 cm) and stem girth (4.50 cm) were observed in control treatment T1. Yield and quality parameters were also influenced significantly due to various treatments of boron and molybdenum. The highest curd diameter (18.41 cm), fresh- weight of curd (1.24 kg), yield/ha (400.29 q) and dry matter of curd (11.37 %) were recorded in treatment T9, whereas the lowest curd diameter (15.52 cm), fresh weight of curd (0.69 kg), yield/ha (218.28 q) and dry matter of curd (0.69 %) were found in control treatment T1. The treatment T9 was found significantly superior over all the treatments. The treatment T8 registered the maximum ‘A’ grade curds (52.54%) as well as ‘B’ grade curds (35.20%) and the lowest ‘C’ grade curds (12.26%). This was equally followed by T7 and T9 treatments. The lowest ‘A’ grade curds 46.57% were found in case of control treatment T1, this was followed by T2 giving 46.64% ‘A’ grade curds, 33.09% ‘B’ grade curds and 20.01% C grade curds.

A field experiment was conducted at Research Farm of ICAR Sikkim Centre, Tadong rabi 2011 and 2012 to find out the optimum dose of vermincompost for obtaining higher productivity, profitability and energetics of two local buckwheat cultivars in Sikkim Himalaya. Results revealed that among the two cultivars, Teethey recorded significantly higher number of grains/plant (170 and 165), test weight (23.8 and 23.2g), gross returns (60 × 103 and 54 × 103  ₹/ha), net returns (41 × 103 and 36 × 103 ₹/ha), B:C ratio (2.18 and 1.89), profitability (306 and 264 ₹/ha/day), production efficiency (7.88 and 7.09 kg/ha/day) and EUE (22.7 and 20.8%) over Meethey. This led to 10.8 and 9.4%, 17.2 and 18.4% and 11.7 and 8.4% increment in grain yield, B:C ratio and energy use efficiency (EUE) over Meethey. Application of vermicompost (VC) @ 2.5 tonnes/ha recorded higher values of grains/plant, test weight, grain yield and haulm yield resulting in highest gross returns. However, significantly higher B:C ratio (2.30 and 2.14) was found with VC @ 1.5 tonnes/ha over other VC levels during both years. Similarly, application of VC @ 1.5 tonnes/ha recorded maximum EUE (23.4 and 22.3%), energy productivity (1.34 and 1.28 kg/MJ) resulting in more energy saving for buckwheat production as compared to other levels of VC.

Doğal kaynakları ve insan emeğini sermaye birikiminin emrindeki unsurlar olarak gören kapitalist üretim biçimi kendi işleyiş mantığından kaynaklanan krizleri görmezden gelme eğilimindedir. Kesintisiz büyümeyi merkeze alan anaakım iktisat anlayışı doğrutusunda izlenen politikalar yalnız doğal kaynakları tüketmekle yetinmemiş, yaşam alanımız olan yerküreyi de bütünüyle tehdit eder hale gelmiştir. İklim krizi ve çevre kirliliği yarım yüzyıl öncesine dayanan uyarıların bizi getirdiği kritik eşiktir ve sistem tarafından yönetilecek, ötelenecek bir olgu olmaktan çıkmıştır. Bu çalışma kapitalizmin başarı ve refah ölçütleri arasındaki başat konumunu hiç yitirmeyen büyüme anlayışı karşısına yeni bir toplum tasarımı koymaya çalışan büyümeme yaklaşımının insanlığa sunduğu fırsatlar üzerine yoğunlaşmaktadır. Bununla birlikte büyümeme yaklaşımının dünya halkları nezdinde gereken yankıyı yaratmadığı, bir tür uzman ve aktivist duyarlılığı olarak kaldığı gözlemlenmiştir. Büyümeme anlayışının ağırlıklı olarak toplumun piyasa güçleri karşısında kaybettiği mevzileri geri almasına yönelik güçlü vurgu ve mücadele çağrısından ziyade “hayatta kalma” odaklı bir çerçeveye sıkıştığı ileri sürülebilir. Büyümeme hareketi ancak “yeni bir yaşam ve toplum nasıl olmalı” sorusuna etkili yanıtlar vereceği bir yeniden düşünme sürecinin ardından bir umudu, gerçek bir çağrıyı temsil edebilir.
A talaj agronómia1i szerkezetének vizsgálata szántóföldi kísérletekben
Authors: Földesi Petra , Gyuricza Csaba
Published: July 2023

Néhány évtizede a nagy termésátlagokra, az intenzív növénytermesztésre való törekvés miatt háttérbe szorult a talaj termőképességét, szerkezetét, biológiai állapotát szem előtt tartó földhasználat. Napjainkban a földművelési rendszerek fenntartható alkalmazása került középpontba, mivel a mezőgazdasági termelés során a környezetet károsító vegyszerek mellett a talajművelési rendszer szakszerűtlen megválasztása többletkiadást, talajdegradálódást, valamint a környezet károsítását eredményezheti. Szántóföldi vizsgálataink során a talaj fizikai állapotának javítása céljából vizsgáltuk a talaj agronómiai szerkezetét, a talaj ellenállását és a talaj nedvességtartalmát. Jelen esetben részletezzük, hogy hogyan alakult a rög-, morzsa- és porfrakció aránya a hagyományos talajművelés során szántóföldi körülmények között. A 2004. évben a talaj 62,8%–84,0%-át alkották a morzsafrakcióban lévő szemcsék, a rögfrakció 14,5%–35,0%, míg a porfrakció aránya a vizsgált gazdaságok- ban 1,5–6,1% között változott. A talaj agronómiai szerkezetére vonatkozóan a 2004. évben szignifikáns eltérést találtunk a rög- és morzsafrakció tekintetében a hat beállított szántóföldi kísérlet között (SzD5%rög=10,2; SzD5%morzsa=10,8). A porfrakciók között nem volt szignifikáns különbség. 2004–2005–2006. év közül a 2005. év bizonyult a legcsapadékosabbnak, a morzsafrakció aránya 78,6–81,8%, a rögfrakció aránya 15,7–19,6%, a porfrakció aránya 1,5–3% között változott. A harmadik vizsgált évben a morzsafrakció aránya 71,4–81,5%, a rögfrakció aránya 17,3–26,8%, a porfrakció aránya 1,3–2,0% között alakult a szántóföldi kísérletekben. A 2005. és 2006. évben a hagyományos művelés hatásának értékelésekor a rög-, morzsa- és porfrakció vizsgálata a kísérletek között nem eredményezett szignifikáns különbséget.
A Győr-Tatai Kisalföld erdei: tájtörténet és vegetáció
Authors: Riezing Norbert
Published: July 2023

A dolgozat a Kisalföld keleti felének természetszerű, illetve annak tűnő erdeivel, azok növényzetével és tájtörténetével foglalkozik. A Győr-Tatai Kisalföld a 18. század végére az első katonai felmérés térképlapjai alapján már alapvetően erdőtlen tájjá alakult. A Bakonyalja felé eső részeket leszámítva, ahol akkor még nagyobb erdőtömbök is voltak, mindössze néhány kisebb erdőfolt maradt meg. A különböző katonai felmérések (1782-83-tól napjainkig) térképlapjainak tanulsága szerint az elmúlt bő kétszáz évben (a Duna árterét nem számítva) folyamatosnak tekinthető erdőborítás csak a Concó mentén található nagyigmándi Karabuka-erdőben (keményfás ligeterdő maradványa), valamint a Győrszentiván melletti Haraszt-erdőben (jelenleg csertölgy állomány) volt. Az évszázados erdőhasználat illetve az erdőgazdálkodás eredményeként azonban ezek az állományok is jelentősen átalakultak, leromlottak. A degradálódás mértékét mutatja, hogy bizonyos őshonos fajokból álló, telepített állományok napjainkban már jobb állapotúak és a fajkészlet elemzése alapján természetszerűbbnek tűnnek. Ezekbe az erdőkbe az alföldi viszonylatban ritkábbnak számító fajok gyakran emberi közvetítéssel jutottak el. Ez lehet szándékos (ültetés), illetve véletlen behurcolás (például a telepített facsemetékkel együtt). Számos érdekes, „maradványnak” tűnő növényfaj jelenléte tehát az elmúlt kétszáz év antropogén hatásainak eredménye. Ezek közé tartozik a bükk is, melynek őshonossága a vizsgált területen a tájtörténeti kutatások alapján kizárható.
Alkalmazható-e gyepesítés gyomok visszaszorítására? A Hortobágyi Nemzeti Parkban végzett gyeprekonstrukciók tapasztalatai
Authors: Miglécz Tamás , Tóth Katalin
Published: July 2023

A gyepek területe jelentősen csökkent Európában az utóbbi évtizedekben. Ugyanakkor egyre nagyobb arányban hagynak fel mezőgazdasági területeket Közép- és Kelet-Európában. Ez kiváló lehetőséget nyújt a gyepek területének növelésére. Ha a felhagyott mezőgazdasági területeken nem történik gyeprekonstrukció akkor gyakran tapasztalható jelentős mértékű gyomosodás. Ez a gyomosodás a környező gyepekben és mezőgazdasági területeken is komoly gyom-magterhelést jelent, ami növeli a területek gyomosodásának kockázatát. Így a gyeprekonstrukciók egyik előnye a gyomosodás csökkentése. Kutatásaink során két különböző magkeverékkel gyepesített, majd évi egyszeri kaszálással kezelt szántóterületeken a magvetés gyomosodásra gyakorolt hatását vizsgáltuk. Eredményeink azt mutatják, hogy a gyorsan kialakuló gyeptakaró az első évet követően eredményesen szorította vissza a rövid életű gyomokat. A rövid életű gyomok jelentős magkészlete arra enged következtetni, hogy a gyomok magkészlete a gyepesítést követően is a talajban maradt. Ez kockázatot jelent, mivel a területek a későbbiekben is elgyomosodhatnak. A vizsgálat időtartama alatt az évelő gyomok borítását nem csökkentette az évi egyszeri kaszálással kombinált magvetés. Eredményeink alapján ugyanazon magkeverékkel gyepesített területeken eltérő előtörténet esetén más évelő gyomfajok voltak dominánsak. Az Agropyron fajokat csak a lucerna előveteményű területeken mutattuk ki, míg a Cirsium arvense a gabona és napraforgó előveteményű területekre volt jellemző, de a lucerna előtörténetűekre nem. Eredményeink azt mutatják, hogy a gyepesítés utáni kezelések megtervezésekor ezekre a tényezőre is tekintettel kell lenni.
Új irányvonalak a geodiverzitás kutatásában
Authors: Örsi Anna
Published: July 2023

A geodiverzitás legrövidebben kifejezve az élettelen környezeti tényezők sokfélesége. Ez alatt a kőzetek, ásványok, fosszíliák, tájak, felszínformák, felszínalakító folyamatok, talajok és a vízrajzi elemek változatosságát értjük. Mivel a geodiverzitás-vizsgálat új kutatási terület, egyre több szerző kezd a témával fog- lalkozni. Ezzel párhuzamosan bővül a fogalom értelmezési köre, újabb és újabb kísérletek történnek a számszerűsítésére. A következőkben a geodiverzitás értelmezésének és kutatásának legfontosabb irányvonalait mutatjuk be. Az első vizsgálatok az adott területen megtalálható geológiai, geomorfológiai, hidrológiai elemeket összesítették. Más kutatók szerint nem leltárt kell készíteni a geodiverzitás területegységekben előforduló elemeiről, hanem elég a geodiverzitás azon értékeinek vizsgálatára koncentrálni, amelyek leginkább meghatározzák a tájat függetlenül azok gyakoriságától vagy térbeli eloszlásától. Kezdenek elterjedni újabb irányzatok is, melyek a geodiverzitás elemeit azok tudományos vagy idegenforgalmi jelentősége szerint értékelik, és azok veszélyeztetettségére, megőrzésének fontosságára is felhívják a figyelmet. Többen a geodiverzitásra, mint a biodiverzitás alapfeltételére tekintenek, és nem a geomorfológiai heterogenitásra, hanem az élővilág számára nyújtott feltételek változatosságára koncentrálnak.

Vizsgálatainkat a Szent István Egyetemhez tartozó Babatvölgyi Biokertészet Tanüzem által a rendelkezésünkre bocsátott 1,4 ha területű táblán végeztük, amelynek felében alakor, felében tönke került elvetésre. Ezen belül hat eltérő tápanyagadottságú parcella került kijelölésre, amelyekben növényszám, növénymagasság, kalászhossz, bokrosodás és gyomborítottság mérését végeztük el. Az aratást követően szintén ezen parcellákra felosztva terméstömeg, szem-szalma arány és ezermagtömeg vizsgálatát is elvégeztük. Az eredményeken SPSS programmal lineáris regresszió segítségével megvizsgáltuk, hogy milyen összefüggés lehet a növény tulajdonságai és a tápanyagok mennyisége között.
