Authors: Valladares-Samperio Karla , Galicia-Sarmiento Leopoldo 
Published: January 2021

Introducción: El incremento en la intensidad de cosecha de madera influye negativamente en las funciones ecosistémicas de los suelos en los bosques templados y boreales.Objetivo: Conocer los impactos de los métodos de manejo forestal intensivos y extensivos sobre las propiedades físicas, químicas y biológicas de los suelos, y sus consecuencias en los procesos de disponibilidad y estabilización de nutrientes en los bosques templados y boreales.Resultados y discusión: Los métodos de manejo forestal intensivo pueden generar mayor desequilibrio en los procesos de disponibilidad y estabilización de nutrientes, comparados con los métodos selectivos. El impacto se refleja en el deterioro de la estructura del suelo y en la disminución de reservas de nutrientes y comunidades microbianas. Estos daños afectan la fertilidad y el funcionamiento del suelo, disminuyendo la productividad a largo plazo. Las afectaciones dependen de la intensidad de biomasa extraída, condiciones ambientales y preparación del sitio. Lo anterior hace evidente la necesidad del monitoreo del manejo forestal y su impacto en la ecología del suelo en los bosques templados, que mantenga la productividad a largo plazo y garantice la disponibilidad de los volúmenes de madera.Conclusión: En México, el impacto del manejo forestal ha sido escasamente analizado y es indispensable comprender los cambios funcionales de los procesos que determinan la fertilidad del suelo y la productividad de los bosques.
Servicios de los ecosistemas forestales en los trópicos: una evaluación imperfecta de su contribución al bienestar e implicaciones en la política ambiental
Authors: López-Ramírez Martín A. 
Published: January 2021

Introducción: La relación específica entre servicios ecosistémicos (SE), productividad de los sistemas de uso del suelo y bienestar es compleja y poco conocida.Objetivo: Analizar la relación entre el capital natural y el bienestar en el sector de la Agricultura, Silvicultura y Otros Uso del Suelo (AFOLU), con el fin de evaluar la contribución de los SE al valor agregado (PIB [producto interno bruto]) de la agricultura, la silvicultura y la pesca, y sus implicaciones políticas.Materiales y métodos: A través de variables de asignación de uso de suelo, el modelo de transición forestal y el PIB de uso de la tierra de 97 países tropicales, la función de producción del sector AFOLU se estimó mediante un modelo de regresión lineal y un método bootstrap. Las propiedades de la función se analizaron y se calculó la asignación óptima de la tierra.Resultados y discusión: Existe una contribución directa e indirecta de los ecosistemas forestales al PIB. El efecto directo se manifiesta a través de la elasticidad parcial de las tierras forestales (P < 0.05), y el indirecto, a través de la escala de producción (P < 0.05). La elasticidad parcial de la agricultura es significativamente mayor que la de las tierras forestales (P < 0.05) y la escala de producción aumenta a medida que las tierras forestales se agotan (P < 0.05). El uso óptimo de la tierra indica que 75 países tienen superávit forestal (13.2 Mkm 2 ) y 22 tienen déficit forestal (1.5 Mkm 2 ).Conclusiones: Los ecosistemas forestales en el sector AFOLU en los trópicos producen servicios ecosistémicos para la sociedad; sin embargo, estas contribuciones se ven opacadas por la productividad de la tierra agrícola.

Published: January 2021

Background: Children less than five years worldwide are known to be vulnerable and susceptible in many respects, especially on matters on health. Nutritional deficiencies and malnutrition generally affect children more than any other group. Poor nutrition occurs in developing countries, as well as in more prosperous areas of the world.
Objective: The objective of this study focused on the effect of maternal Occupation and Age on feeding habit, and nutritional status of under-five children in Kibiya (rural) and Dala (Urban) local government areas of Kano State Nigeria,
Study Design: A descriptive research design was adopted by this study to assess the level of nutritional status of under-five-children and to determine the relationship between age, occupation, economic status, attitudes and practices of mothers. Structured questionnaire was used to collect data on nutritional status, knowledge, attitudes and nutrition-related practices for a limited time period.
Place and Duration of the Study: The study was conducted in two local government areas in Kano State, DALA and KIBIYA LGA, between February, 2019 to July, 2019.
Methods: Descriptive research design was used for data collection. 198 and 170 mothers with their children from Kibiya and Dala respectively, were used for the study. Data generated was analyzed using Spss, Excel and was presented using frequency table, percentage, mean, standard deviation and correlation.
Results: In Kibiya, there was a very weak, positive correlation between maternal age under-five nutritional status with the exception of weight-for-height, which was found to be statistically significant (p<0.005). In Dala, the relationship was a very weak negative correlation with the exception of height-for-age which is positive correlated (p<0.005). Majority of the children were severely stunted with 44.1% in Dala and 56.1% in Kibya, but there was no significant difference in the prevalence of severe stunting between the two LGAs. Furthermore, majority of the under-fives were within the range of adequate weight: 45.5% Dala and 58.2% Kibiya. However, the prevalence of severely underweight children in Kibiya is 11.2%. This is significantly higher compared to Dala with 2.4% which means severe underweight children in Kibiya is almost five times that in Dala. Prevalence of wasting (mild, moderate and severe) among under-five children were significantly higher in Dala compared to Kibiya (p<0.01).
Conclusion: The findings from this study shows that maternal Age is a significant factor that affect the nutritional status of the children in both local government but maternal Occupation has less impact on nutritional status of the children.

This research aimed to determine the optimal dosage of potassium diformate addition to commercial feed in order to increase the growth and survival rate of common carp seeds. The method used in this research was experimental in a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of five treatments and four replications. The treatments used were A (control), B with addition of potassium diformate (0.2%), C (0.3%), D (0.4%), and E (0.5%). For test fish, there were 200 of Common carp seeds with a size of 2-3 cm. The media used was 20 aquariums with a size of 40x30x40 cm3 and a stocking density of 10 individuals/aquarium. The rearing period was 35 days and the amount of feed given was 3% of the fish body weight. The parameters observed included water quality (temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen) which were observed every 7 days for 35 days. Other parameters monitored were daily growth rate, survival rate, feed efficiency, and the acidity level of the intestine. The results showed that 0.3% addition of potassium diformate gave the best results with a daily growth rate value of 3.21%, highest survival of 98%, efficiency of feed utilization of 64.83%, and a decrease in intestinal pH which helped the process of protein absorption in the fish body. In conclution, the addition of potassium diformate has good effect on growth and survival rates of common carp.

Published: January 2021

Pharmaceutical compounds have been recognized as a hazardous class of organic pollutants due to their long term effects towards the aquatic environment. The present work studies the efficiency of electrogalation (EC) process in removal Norfloxacin (NFX) from aqueous solutions by aluminum electrodes. This study experimentally was run in a batch electrochemical reactor (1.5 L glass beaker) and six electrodes which installed in parallel. In each of test, 1 L of wastewater added to the test reactor, then effect of four parameters including the voltage 10-60 V (current density: 1,2,3 and 4 mA/cm2), reaction time (5-60 min) initial concentration of NFX and the pH of wastewater (pH=3-9) on process performance were investigated. Results of this study showed that the efficiency of the system could be promoted by increasing the contact time, initial pH of the solution, and the applied voltage. However, the efficiency of EC process has decreased, when higher level of NFX ions was presented in the aqueous phase. The optimal conditions for Norfloxacin removal were: pH 7, initial NFX concentration 25 mg/L, voltage 60 V and reaction time 45 min and the highest removal rate was under these conditions 98.4%. The results of this study indicate that EC process could be applied for the removal of NFX from aqueous solution with a high efficiency.
