Indonesia memiliki sumber daya pariwisata yang berlimpah yang bila diberdayakan dengan optimal memungkinkan Indonesia menjadi salah satu kekuatan pariwisata terbesar di dunia. Agar pariwisata Indonesia berkelanjutan, berbagai potensi parisata yang dimilikiseyogyanya dikelola melalui kegiatan pariwisata yang berbasis masyarakat. Homestay yang diinisiasi dan dikelola oleh masyarakat lokal merupakan salah satu bentuk pariwisata yang berbasis masyarakat. Pergeseran keperilakuan wisatawan akhir-akhir ini memberi ruang akan wisata dengan minat khusus, yang menjadikan homestay dengan keunikan karakternya menjadi alternatif berwisata. Sayangnya banyak homestay yang dikelola seadanya sehingga berpotensi memunculkan risiko. Normatifnya manajemen risiko pada homestay dapat membantu mengurangi risiko-risiko yang mungkin terjadi, namun hingga kini masih sedikit penelitian yang membahas tentang dampak manajemen risiko pada homestay secara keseluruhan. Penelitian tentang dampak manajemen risiko pada homestay dapat membantu pemilik homestay dalam memahami manfaat dari penerapan manajemen risiko pada homestay, dapat membantu pengelola homestay dalam menerapkan manajemen risiko secara efektif. Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi penelitian- enelitian yang sejauh ini telah dilakukan terkait pariwisata berkelanjutan berbasis manajemen risiko homestay dalam rangka melihat peluang untuk dilakukannya penelitian sehubungan manajemen risiko homestay di masa mendatang. Eksplorasi yang dihasilkan dari VoS Viewer mengindikasikan bahwa kajian tentang peran manajemen risiko homestay ataupun manajemen risiko operasional homestay terhadap Sustainability Tourism berbasis komunitas masih langka, dengan demikian masih terbuka peluang untuk penelitian mendatang.

Just-in-Time Encoding Into Visual Working Memory Is Contingent Upon Constant Availability of External Information
Authors: Hoogerbrugge Alex J. , Strauch Christoph , Böing Sanne , Nijboer Tanja C. W. , Van der Stigchel Stefan
Published: May 2024

Humans maintain an intricate balance between storing information in visual working memory (VWM) and just-in-time sampling of the external world, rooted in a trade-off between the cost of maintaining items in VWM versus retrieving information as it is needed. Previous studies have consistently shown that one prerequisite of just-in-time sampling is a high degree of availability of external information, and that introducing a delay before being able to access information led participants to rely less on the external world and more on VWM. However, these studies manipulated availability in such a manner that the cost of sampling was stable and predictable. It is yet unclear whether participants become less reliant on external information when it is more difficult to factor in the cost of sampling that information. In two experiments, participants copied an example layout from the left to the right side of the screen. In Experiment 1, intermittent occlusion of the example layout led participants to attempt to encode more items per inspection than when the layout was constantly available, but this did not consistently result in more correct placements. However, these findings could potentially be explained by inherent differences in how long the example layout could be viewed. Therefore in Experiment 2, the example layout only became available after a gaze-contingent delay, which could be constant or variable. Here, the introduction of any delay led to increased VWM load compared to no delay, although the degree of variability in the delay did not alter behaviour. These results reaffirm that the nature of when we engage VWM is dynamical, and suggest that any disruption to the continuous availability of external information is the main driver of increased VWM usage relative to whether availability is predictable or not.
The Teaching Profession in Africa: Challenges and Prospects
Authors: Miiro Farooq
Published: May 2024

Teachers play a very important role in the day-to-day lives of a country and its citizens. They train professionals, experts, innovators and problem-solvers. However, their roles in the development of communities are not commensurate to the salary they are paid and this is enough to explain that teaching is a calling. Nevertheless, whoever qualifies to be a teacher should be valued in terms of time, salary, housing, medical allowance, career and professional development so as to minimize on challenges that can detract their devotion towards this noble profession. Since teachers hold the mantle for future development of any country, countries like Finland and Germany attach a lot of importance to teachers’ welfare. Therefore, being sensitive to teachers’ concerns at all levels of education should be an important matter for governments, parents and other stakeholders so as to prepare critical masses with needed skills of the time. Along similar lines, teachers’ professionalism should be upheld if they are to effectively play the transformative and development role. In this paper, I contend that because of poor teachers’ welfare, their professionalism gets compromised to the end that generation is threatened. This is evidently seen in the challenges faced by the education industry in Africa such as the many school dropouts, incessant strikes, merciless teachers, and moonlighting, among others. This is an alarming situation that can only be mitigated if the African countries come up with practical solutions that take teacher professionalisms as the key to the success of government policies towards human development and transformation. The purpose of this paper is to examine the current situation under which teachers operate and how this affects their professionalism.
Organisational Envy, Teachers’ Job Commitment and Satisfaction in Public Senior Secondary Schools, Education District V, Lagos State, Nigeria
Authors: Orunbon O, Nurudeen , Makinde B. Olawumi
Published: May 2024

Over the last two decades, the duty of controlling employees' emotions, particularly teachers, has emerged as a critical component of maintaining a successful school environment. While good emotions have acquired value as a result of positive school organisation behaviour, negative emotions in the workplace, especially in schools, have been neglected. This study looked at the link between organisational envy and teachers’ job commitment and satisfaction in public senior secondary schools in Lagos State Educational District V. The study used a correlational and descriptive survey design with simple random sampling. A total of 240 responses from the 300 administered instruments was determined and used for final analysis. The Pearson Product Moment Correlation coefficient was used to evaluate two hypotheses at the 0.05 level of significance. The findings indicate that there is a link between school organisation envy and teachers' work commitment. The study also discovered that school organisation envy is strongly connected to teachers’ job satisfaction. Based on this assumption, the study suggested that in order to create a healthy organisation, school administrators should limit the negative repercussions of envy and they should establish a suitable working atmosphere that would promote cultures of accepting others and reduce envy among instructors.

Authors: Wendaferew Desta , Damtew Abebe
Published: May 2024

The aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of combined reading strategy instruction on reading strategy use and perception of Ethiopian secondary school English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. Using a quasi-experimental pre-test-post control group design, eighty-seven students were selected from two intact classes that were assigned to the control and experimental groups. Questionnaires and interviews were used to collect the data. After identifying students' level of reading strategies, students in the experimental group were explicitly taught a combination of reading strategies. The training took four months and at the end of which, a questionnaire was administered to both groups, whereas the interview was conducted only with the experimental group. ANCOVA and interview findings indicated that students in the treatment group greatly benefited from the training. Hence, it was concluded that combined reading strategy instruction is vital for EFL students to increase their reading strategy use and awareness which in turn helps them to improve their reading comprehension problems. Finally, it was recommended that EFL teachers should consider the role of combined reading strategies during teaching reading.

Published: May 2024

The issue of waste management has continued to attract global attention and several efforts have been made to find solutions to the problem of improper waste disposal mostly in the urban areas in the developing countries of the world. This study exploits the benefits of using social entrepreneurship in waste management and creation of wealth using primary school pupils in the central senatorial district of Ogun State. A descriptive survey research design was used for the study and 500 primary school pupils using volunteer sampling techniques. A self-constructed questionnaire titled “Students Perception on Social Entrepreneurship and Waste Management Questionnaire” (SPSEWMQ) (r =.82) was used as main instrument for the study. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics. The findings showed that social entrepreneurship helps pupils to gain skills of proper handling of waste, waste collection and disposal among others, also pupils benefited from the social entrepreneurship activities they embarked on in the area of helping them to develop skills of willingness to get things done, determination to achieve success, employment generation and wealth creation and social entrepreneurship activities did lead to gaining waste sorting skills by the pupils. It was recommended that social entrepreneurship skills should be developed in the pupils so as to participate as productive members of the society and that pupils should be encouraged to manage waste and turn it to wealth.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the contribution of Teacher Education Program in equipping preschool teachers with some indicators of relevant curriculum practice as guiding principles of development and learning, appropriate curriculum, learning cycles, and fit methods of instruction and assessment means for children in Ethiopia. A survey method was employed in conducting the study. The data for the study were collected from 221 teacher-trainees using questionnaires of rating scale with open-ended questions and five trainers using interview questions. The data were analysed using frequency, percentage, and sums. The data from survey questionnaire indicated that the contribution of Teacher Education Program in acquainting trainees with guiding principles of child development and learning, developmentally appropriate curriculum, learning cycles of children, fit methods of instruction and assessment means for children did not get high level of agreement from the respondents. The data from interview and open ended questions revealed obstacles as lack of qualified teachers, unsuitable curriculum materials, difficult courses, negative attitude to the profession, time shortage and absence of centres for skills development in the training program. Measures useful for alleviating problems were also indicated parallel to the problems.
Conflicto y producción de espacio público: Análisis de ensamblaje a un parque de Valparaíso
Authors: Solano-Molina Raúl , Berroeta Héctor , Di Masso Andrés
Published: May 2024

En el contexto latinoamericano los enfoques con los que se ha pensado e intervenido el espacio público están fuertemente inspirados en la realidad del norte global. Estos enfoques, al confluir en un ideal normativo de espacio público, son poco adecuados para analizar la realidad situada y conflictiva de diferentes espacios públicos latinoamericanos. Además, están caracterizados por una mirada dualista en la que el espacio público es entendido como el escenario físico que alberga la vida urbana. Frente a estas concepciones, en este artículo generamos una doble propuesta para entender la producción del espacio público. En primer lugar, desde un plano axiológico proponemos una mirada centrada en el conflicto; luego, desde un plano onto-epistémico proponemos una analítica de ensamblaje. Para comprobar el tipo de alcances que permiten las coordenadas de análisis propuestas, estudiamos la remodelación de un parque urbano de Valparaíso a través de la producción de datos de diferentes tipologías, (entrevistas geo-espacializadas, fotografías, revisión documental y entrevistas caminantes). A la luz de los resultados reflexionamos sobre cómo el conflicto socio-espacial articula la producción del espacio a través de la hibridación ensamblada de aspectos de diferentes naturalezas, y sobre cómo el lugar es más que un mero escenario de conflicto.

Satisfaction with Elderly in Multigenerational Family Living in Kuala Lumpur
Authors: Mohd Arshard Wan Nur Rukiah
Published: May 2024

Malaysia is a blend of multiracial ethnic societies in addition to communities where there are families who have married across races and traditions. As such, within the family living in the city of Kuala Lumpur, the different races and religions necessitate multigenerational relationships. Also, the lifestyles in a city and the rural areas are different in Malaysia. Those who live in rural areas own a house with land where their relatives are within their surroundings, giving a sense of well-being. In contrast, those living in the city would rent or buy a family-size house that is designed for only one family generation. Correspondingly, the aim of this research is to focus on the well-being of multigenerational families living in the city of Kuala Lumpur and their lifestyles in landed property or high-rise housing. The research’s objective is to identify the level of satisfaction with the facilities housing multigenerational living in Kuala Lumpur. The findings that are discussed in this research focus on the level of people's satisfaction and well-being with multigenerational living in a city where the surrounding has fewer facilities for senior citizens. A new generation living in the city needs to develop a social family who are living together, comprising parents, adults and children, whereby relationships are more intimate. This research has shown the impact of the situation of multigenerational living in Kuala Lumpur housing area where the house design is not suitable for multigenerational families living together because some people need privacy in their lives.
Learning Argumentative Capacities at the Primary and Junior School Levels: A Practical Teaching Pedagogy
Authors: Kyei-Nuamah David
Published: May 2024

The development of argumentative skills is often postponed until after students complete their compulsory education, creating a gap in their understanding and abilities. This gap can be attributed to issues with the curriculum and teaching methods. To address this, we propose that teaching argumentative skills at the primary school level is crucial for enhancing students’ comprehension of the world and its inhabitants. To support this idea, we have designed practical teaching modules that can be introduced in primary and junior schools. Our pedagogical approach emphasizes relatable examples, interactive discussions, peer reviews, and recommendations, with a focus on teacher-to-teacher training. It is vital that teachers receive thorough training on implementing these pedagogical strategies and consider the context to achieve early development of argumentative skills in the modern classroom.
Collo, spalla, pancia, piede. Riflessioni sull’anatomia del vaso
Authors: Bossolino Isabella
Published: May 2024

Questo contributo prende in considerazione uno dei fenomeni più trasversali a numerose lingue, antiche e moderne: la designazione delle diverse parti di un vaso con lo stesso lessico impiegato per le parti del corpo umano.
Il lavoro si concentra su quattro tra le lingue moderne più utilizzate nella bibliografia archeologica (italiano, inglese, francese e tedesco) e sulle due lingue classiche per eccellenza (greco e latino), offrendo una panoramica del lessico utilizzato e delle metafore o figure retoriche che nel mondo antico e moderno includono la figura del vaso e le sue parti. In un secondo momento vengono presentati dei casi studio relativi, a loro volta, all’antichità e alla contemporaneità: da un lato, l’associazione dei vasi al corpo umano nella Grecia arcaica e il caso dei canopi etruschi; dall’altro, gli esempi straordinari di produzione di vasi antropomorfi o di assimilazione completa nel trattamento superficiale tra ceramica e corpo umano di alcune popolazioni centro-africane (Yungur, Mafa e Bulahay). A conclusione di questo articolo vengono proposte alcune ipotesi interpretative del fenomeno, i cui elementi fondativi possono essere ritrovati sia in alcuni racconti cosmogonici tipici del mondo antico, sia negli studi di linguistica cognitiva degli ultimi decenni.
construction ‘εἶναι + participle’ in Homeric Greek: prototype analysis and the morphosyntax-semantics interface
Authors: Nardi Edoardo
Published: May 2024

Questo contributo tratta della perifrasi ‘εἶναι + participio’ in greco omerico all’interfaccia fra morfosintassi e semantica. I dati sono analizzati con riferimento al quadro teorico elaborato da Nardi e Romagno (2022), che considerano la perifrasi con εἶναι in greco antico come una categoria prototipica: secondo questa prospettiva, la categoria sovraordinata ‘εἶναι + participio’ include due manifestazioni formalmente diverse ma funzionalmente equivalenti, un costrutto con una copula espressa, cioè una perifrasi vera e propria, e un costrutto senza copula espressa, cioè un participio predicativo (fondamentalmente, un participio che funziona come una forma finita). Questa indagine mira a valutare se si possano individuare fattori che determinano o soggiacciono all’uso di queste costruzioni participiali in greco omerico. L’analisi dei dati raccolti nei poemi omerici mostra che le costruzioni participiali codificano la funzione specifica di significare lo stato, inerente o acquisito, del soggetto del predicato, costituendo pertanto un’alternativa (più o meno libera) al perfetto originario (cfr. Romagno 2005).
Pueri e comunità pastorale nelle Bucoliche di Virgilio
Authors: Dettoni Giacomo
Published: May 2024

Nelle Bucoliche i giovani, figure assai presenti già in Teocrito, compaiono sempre accanto a personaggi più anziani. Questi ultimi, i senes, sono rappresentanti autorevoli della comunità pastorale, spesso in quanto depositari di una tradizione poetica prestigiosa; i pueri, anch’essi per lo più già poeti, aspirano al pieno riconoscimento poetico da parte della comunità, che viene loro conferito per bocca o tramite dei seniores. Tale consacrazione è talvolta segnalata dalla consegna della zampogna e, quindi, del patrimonio poetico del suo vecchio possessore. Si tratta di un momento di passaggio, in cui il giovane entra a pieno diritto nella comunità adulta dei pastori-cantori e diviene erede della sua tradizione: la continuità generazionale garantisce la continuità della tradizione poetica, che così può sopravvivere. Mentre nell’Eneide le morti premature di tanti pueri che aspirano al riconoscimento come viri mettono in discussione questo processo, nelle Bucoliche la speranza della continuità appare come l’unica via attraverso la quale la comunità può cercare, per quanto fragile, un suo equilibrio.

Published: May 2024

Philosophy plays an important role in shaping meaningful educational systems. Many schools develop curricula without considering philosophy, resulting in meaningless learning for students. This research aims to explain the application of the philosophy of Tut Wuri Handayani in the curriculum of MTs Al-Mardliyyah Pamekasan using a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, then processed through reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The implementation of the Tut Wuri Handayani philosophy includes honesty, fairness, good moral character, and motivation for students to learn well. Challenges such as laziness, shyness, and pessimism are addressed with strategies of awareness, understanding, and changing students' mindset. The impact is that students develop into better individuals morally, caring for their peers and the environment, and forming productive and adaptive learning processes. In conclusion, the implementation of the philosophy has been successful with positive effects on schools, teachers, and students. This research contributes as a reference for schools to apply philosophical aspects in education and learning.

Menopause is an inevitable phase of life in women which comes with various physical and mental health issues. Middle age, specifically the fourth decade of life is the common age for the onset of menopause in which fluctuation in sex steroid hormones leads to physical as well as mental symptoms. More than 85% of women have reported Vasomotor symptoms in terms of hot flashes and night sweats which is one of the earliest symptoms, begins in the menopausal transition and gradually progresses and lasts around 5-6 years. Anxiety disorders are quite prevalent and most of the time comorbid with depression. Common presentation is usually in the form of generalized anxiety and Panic attack symptoms.  Mood swings, irritability, and anxiety symptoms are heightened in the menopausal transition. Cognitive impairment during menopausal transition and post-menopause such as disturbance in concentration and memory is very common at this age.

Exploring the labyrinth of light: multiple Bragg Diffraction phenomena in face-centered cubic photonic crystals
Authors: Dosaev Nurzhan , Tulekova Gulzhan
Published: May 2024

This work presents the outcomes of an experimental study aimed at exploring electron diffraction phenomena within a controlled environment. The experiment involved measuring the radii of diffraction rings produced under varying acceleration voltages, with a focus on the first-order ring. Unexpectedly, the observed values were half of the anticipated results, raising questions about the accuracy of the measurements. The analysis revealed that the measured value of d1 closely resembled the theoretical value of d2, suggesting a potential oversight of the first diffraction ring, possibly due to its diminutive size. The high brightness of the incident light further complicated the measurement process. Accounting for the possibility of overlooking the first diffraction ring, the derived values for d2 (128.24±33.26 pm) and d3 (70.00±5.21 pm) were compared to theoretical values (123 pm and 80 pm, respectively). Despite the challenges, the experimental results fell within an acceptable range, considering the inherent uncertainties. To mitigate errors in radii measurement, the article suggests the implementation of an automated system and recommends a thorough reassessment of experimental setup configurations to optimize conditions for more accurate measurements. The findings highlight the importance of methodological refinement to enhance precision and reliability in electron diffraction studies. This work contributes valuable insights to the field and underscores the continuous need for advancements in experimental techniques.
Harnessing ultrawideband technology for enhanced communication and radar detection
Authors: Karimov Adil
Published: May 2024

This article explores the field of pulse dynamics in functional materials with an emphasis on their use in ultrawideband technology and its significance in high-frequency situations. For thirty years, a great deal of attention in the scientific and technical literature has focused on the production of high-power Gaussian pulses, which are necessary to improve radar detection capabilities. Most notably, using avalanche transistors in conjunction with Step Recovery Diodes  has been shown to be an effective way to build pulse generators that support narrow pulse widths. Also describes the complex transistor-based circuitry used to generate pulses, which is based on the avalanche mode principle and requires careful pulse shaping. The balun device is a key component of this technology since it optimizes signal integrity by converting asymmetrical pulses into balanced ones. Step Recovery Diodes are also essential for fine-tuning pulse edges, which guarantees accurate temporal properties that improve communication efficiency. This article offers insights into the transformational potential of UWB technology by offering a thorough review of the technology, including prospective applications and regulatory implications. UWB technology is ready to completely transform the field, from making old communication paradigms obsolete to bringing in a new era of unheard-of communication capabilities. All things considered, this work advances our understanding of UWB technology and pulse dynamics in a sophisticated way, making it an invaluable tool for engineers, researchers, and legislators.
Spectral characterization of elemental emissions, experimental insights and theoretical evaluation
Authors: Amangeldinov Islam , Korovaev Dmitri
Published: May 2024

This experimental study delves into the spectral analysis of five discrete spectral lamps, namely helium, sodium, mercury, cadmium and zinc, utilizing a suite of scientific instrumentation including an optical spectrometer with converging lenses and a diffraction grating. The primary objective is to determine the wavelengths corresponding to visible spectral lines emitted by these lamps. Calibration of the spectrometer with the helium lamp facilitated the derivation of the diffraction grating constant. Subsequent measurements of diffraction angles allowed for the computation of experimental wavelengths, which were then compared with theoretical values. Analysis revealed slight discrepancies between experimental and theoretical values, likely attributed to systematic errors such as extraneous light sources and parallax errors in angle measurements. Furthermore, examination of spectral line splitting demonstrated the removal of degeneracy within specified energy levels, resulting in the observation of distinct spectral components. Overall, this study underscores the significance of meticulous experimental techniques in the elucidation of fundamental physical phenomena and highlights the interplay between theory and observation in spectral analysis.

Additionally, 39.9% had never donated blood, but 83.9% expressed willingness to donate in the future. Fear of needles (13.90%), fear of infection (13.20%), and medical unfitness (13.10%) were significant barriers, while motivations included saving lives (22.20%), helping friends and family (19.40%), and moral obligation (14.80%). Conclusions: The study concluded that undergraduate students in Peshawar possess a moderate level of understanding regarding blood donation, with medical students showing higher knowledge levels. Despite variations across disciplines, positive attitudes towards donation were common, indicating potential for increased voluntary donation
Problematika Implementasi Penilaian Autentik Kurikulum 2013 dalam Pembelajaran Pendidikan Agama Islam Di SD Negeri Ploso I Pacitan
Authors: Astuti Efi Tri
Published: May 2024

The main component to know the effectiveness of the learning process is through assessment. The relevance of assessment methods with the curriculum applied in educational institutions is very important. The assessment method relevant with the 2013 curriculum is an authentic assessment. This authentic assessment method measures the competence of attitudes, skills and knowledge based on process and outcome (competence of cognitive, affective, psychomotor). In contrast to the previous curriculum assessment methods that always emphasize cognitive competence (knowledge) and tend to be oriented to exam results, in authentic assessment teachers always pay attention to the balance between attitude competency assessment, knowledge and skills tailored to the development of characteristics of learners in accordance with the ladder. As has been observed in SDN Ploso I Pacitan with the results of the implementation level of authentic assessment of Islamic Education has not been effective. This is constrained by the teacher's lack of awareness in the assessment process.
Linear solution of the passive localization problem with combined single-station direction finding and two-station time difference information
Authors:   China Academy of Management Science, Beijing, China, Yu Tao
Published: May 2024

Based on the main station’s direction measurement value and the time difference measurement value of the two stations, two definite solution equations can be listed in the polar coordinate system by directly utilizing the path difference equation and the cosine theorem, and the analytical solution can be obtained by solving the two definite solution equations jointly. Further comparison of the ranging errors shows that the ranging accuracy of the two-station directional and time-difference positioning system is only slightly worse than that of the three-station time-difference positioning system. The new results provide a better basis for the engineering design of two-station hybrid localization.

O presente artigo teve como objetivo abordar o universo alfabetizador na fase da infância, pois ao refletir sobre a Educação Infantil (primeira etapa da Educação Básica), torna-se pertinente a discussão das práticas de alfabetização e letramento, visto que nesta etapa de ensino, o processo de alfabetização prepara a criança para o aprendizado da leitura e escrita. A leitura é um dos principais meios para desenvolver importantes habilidades para o processo de alfabetização, e a escrita anda lado a lado, pois juntas concretizam esse processo. Para a realização dessa pesquisa, foram utilizados fontes bibliográficas, englobando documentos e leis que regem a Educação Infantil. O artigo teve como estruturação a escrita de duas importantes partes, a alfabetização e o letramento, conceitos e aplicabilidades indissociáveis na ação pedagógica. Diante dos estudos levantados, concluiu -se a importância da alfabetização na Educação Infantil, envolvendo a cultura escrita e a leitura, bem como o papel do docente como mediador do conhecimento adquirido e do desenvolvimento das habilidades.

Os diferentes tipos de solo e clima da região Nordeste do Brasil é um importante fator para a exploração pecuária e consequentemente, há uma predominância de cultivo de forrageiras, sendo importante estudar espécies que podem ser utilizadas por produtores. O objetivo foi avaliar a alteração da diversidade de microrganismo do solo após a interferência antrópica nas vegetações naturais para uso da terra como pastagens na região sul do Piauí. Houve a seleção de uma área de 300 m² para a coleta de sete amostras simples do solo na profundidade de 10 cm. Foram avaliados os parâmetros microbiológicos: percentual de colonização e a taxonomia dos Fungos Micorrízicos Arbusculares (FMAs), respiração basal, extração de frações da glomalina total (GT) e da glomalina facilmente extraível (GFE), determinação fontes carbonadas (CLPP) do solo e avaliação estatística dos dados pela análise de variância (ANOVA) e teste Tukey (5%). A mata de cerrado apresentou a maior diversidade de FMAs em relação aos sistemas cultivados com gramíneas forrageiras.   A comunidade microbiana presentes no solo dos tratamentos contendo o cultivo de gramíneas e a mata nativa de Cerrado consumiram diferentes tipos de fontes carbonadas, o que indica uma variabilidade de microrganismos na rizosfera destes ecossistemas.

O presente trabalho se destina a apresentar as diferenças entre indústrias e empresas. Além disso, o artigo também apresenta o conceito de cada tipo de empresa – como empresa de serviço e empresa comercial – e mostra os impactos que as indústrias causam devido às emissões de gases na atmosfera, os quais se acumulam e aumentam o aquecimento global. Devido a esse aquecimento, ocorre um desequilíbrio na atmosfera, a qual reage através de fenômenos meteorológicos, muitas vezes agressivos, que se tornam cada vez mais frequentes e ocasionam diversos problemas para a população, como a maior incidência de furacões, tornados, quantidade e intensidade atípica de chuvas em determinado local e época do ano, a qual gera inundações que afetam drasticamente a população, entre outros fenômenos. O trabalho também apresenta maneiras de mitigar esses efeitos no clima, através de mudanças na conduta de indústrias de determinados segmentos, a fim de que a humanidade tenha melhor qualidade de vida.

Published: May 2024

O presente trabalho visa mostrar, de forma breve, os biomas existentes no mundo, os quais são de extrema importância para o equilíbrio do planeta Terra e da boa qualidade de vida dos seres humanos. Além dos biomas, foi necessário apresentar os Everglades, os quais são um tipo de bioma localizado na região da Flórida, nos Estados Unidos, cuja região é repleta de solos moles, os quais possuem grande quantidade de matéria orgânica e de carbono, que são de suma importância para o planeta. Entretanto, a construção civil vem evoluindo a cada ano devido à necessidade de moradias e de estabelecimentos comerciais. Com isso, muitas vezes ocorre uma urbanização desordenada e com pessoas que constroem sem responsabilidade ou conhecimento suficiente para que as edificações sejam sustentáveis ou que não ofereçam perigo, tanto para os animais quanto para as pessoas ao redor. Então, neste trabalho será apresentado um recurso de construção sustentável que não é tão difundido no mundo quanto o método de construção tradicional utilizando tijolo de cerâmica, mas que proporciona significativa economia e não gera impactos no meio ambiente, preservando as áreas de Everglades e outros biomas, bem como tipos de solos que devem ser mantidos em seu estado natural.

Este artigo visa realizar uma análise acerca dos aditivos de obras dos contratos de obras da Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro – UFRRJ. Para isso foi levantado o que é discutido sobre o tema e foi realizada uma pesquisa com os contratos de obras assinados entre os anos de 2017 a 2021. A partir do levantamento bibliográfico foi possível identificar que a ocorrência de aditivos é algo comum e que na maioria dos casos está relacionado à falta de planejamento das contratações. No método foi realizada a extração dos dados utilizando o Sistema Integrado de Patrimônio, Administração e Contratos- SIPAC da universidade, no qual foram consultados no sistema os processos originários de cada obra em seu formato digital. Além do contrato que se formalizou a obra, foram consultadas outras informações como as próprias solicitações de aditivos, as motivações usadas nesses pedidos e os apostilamentos das obras realizados. O estudo evidenciou que entre os 44 contratos de obras analisados foram celebrados 103 aditamentos de contratos.Nas prorrogações celebradas o resultado teve uma média de 141% de prazo aditivado na execução e 87,36% de prazo adicional aditivado na vigência do contrato, percentagens calculadas tendo como base os prazos originalmente definidos nas obras. Dentre os aditivos de serviços foi demonstrado que no período de 5 anos investido o total de R$   4.015.304,90. Por fim foram demonstradas as motivações usadas nos pedidos de aditivos, em que a causa que mais incidente foi a relacionada às alterações nos projetos e ao acréscimo de itens, com um total de 21 motivações de um total de 65 consultadas, representando o total de 40% das motivações utilizadas. A análise desses dados foi pertinente para compreender, em valores, o impacto financeiro gerado a partir das celebrações de aditivos no período. Evidenciou também a recorrência das prorrogações das obras da universidade, além de elencar as motivações utilizadas nesses pedidos de aditivos. Por fim, este estudo concluiu que as obras podem ser melhor acompanhadas a partir de fiscalização contínua das obras e e um bom planejamento da contratação da obra, além de propor um formulário de solicitação de aditivo a fim de padronizar os pedidos de aditivos na universidade.
