Long-term population changes of the Moustached Warbler (Acrocephalus melanopogon) in a Central Hungarian wetland habitat
Authors: Bozó László , Németh Ákos , Csörgő Tibor 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
In recent years, the breeding populations of many migratory songbird species have declined in the Carpathian Basin. However, there may be significant differences between different geographical regions, as most species have a much higher chance of successful breeding in protected areas. This is also the case for the Moustached Warbler, one of the most habitat-specialist passerine. It colonises only perennial, unharvested reedbeds, therefore its conservation management is essential. We studied the population changes of this species between 2001 and 2022 at Lake Kolon in Izsák, based on bird ringing data from 10–24 July. Data of 12,817 ringed and 5,075 recaptured birds were used in the analyses. The annual capture rate decreased significantly during the study period. The proportion of juveniles was higher at higher water levels during the whole breeding season. In contrast, when looking at winter and first and second broods separately, water level had no effect on the juvenile/adult ratio. This is because the birds compensate for unsuccessful first broods by increasing the proportion of second and replacement broods. If the first broods are successful, the ratio of second and replacement broods will be lower. As reed management is practically non-existent in this area, the perennial reedbeds provide suitable nesting conditions for the species. Changes in the wintering sites may be responsible for the declining trend. Protection of the area is of particular importance for the conservation of the species.
Breeding of the Common Crane (Grus grus L.) in Hungary since the 19th century to modern times
Authors: Bende Attila 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
In the present study, I summarized the data on Common Crane (Grus grus) nesting published in the Hungarian ornithological literature from the mid-19th century to the present day. Based on these data, it can be observed that the crane was never a frequent nesting species in Hungary. It probably nested regularly until the early 19th century, then occasionally until the 1910s, after which, apart from two occasional reports, no nesting data were available until 2015. From this year onwards, it started nesting again in the Transdanubian region. In the examined period, 55.6% of the nests (n=25) originated from the Transdanubian region, 37.0% from the Tiszántúl region, and 7.4% from the Duna-Tisza area. The observations recorded during the nesting period showed a strong correlation with the spatial distribution of confirmed nests. 82.6% of the observations recorded (n=23) were from the Transdanubian region, 13.0% from the Tiszántúl region, and 4.3% from the Duna-Tisza region.
The distribution of nesting data between regions varies not only spatially but also temporally. The nesting data from the Duna-Tisza area and Tiszántúl region date back to the 19th century, with the exception of one report, while the most recent nesting data are from the Transdanubian region (Vas and Veszprém counties).
Aspects of cranial adaptation in foot-propelled diving birds – foraging and visual fields of some piscivorous species
Authors: Pecsics Tibor , Csörgő Tibor 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The adaptation to an aquatic lifestyle has occurred several times during the evolution of birds. The transition from a terrestrial to an aquatic lifestyle requires enormous changes in morphology, physiology, and behaviour. In addition to many physical parameters, aquatic foraging is also a limiting factor, despite the fact that aquatic habitats are often rich in food and prey. Despite many previous studies (foraging, physiology, anatomy, ecology, etc.) and a large amount of data regarding piscivore foot-propelled diving birds, our knowledge on the possible relationships between cranial morphology, feeding mechanism, visual abilities and binocularity is still very limited. In this study, we attempt to achieve a deeper understanding of the visual abilities and foraging related attributes of 5 recent and 1 extinct species of foot-propelled diving birds. We attempted to measure the horizontal visual fields of these species using 3D visualization techniques. According to our model, the narrowest horizontal binocular field was measured in Anhinga (Anhinga anhinga), and the widest was measured in the cases of Great Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) and Goosander (Mergus merganser). Our results support the prediction that binocular field variation among aquatic birds is primarily associated with foraging methods and activities.
Description of representatives of the family Phasianidae from Mátraszőlős 3 (Nógrád county, Hungary) by means of recent finds of Badenian age
Authors: Horváth Ida 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The article reviews of the Galliformes fo from the Mátraszőlős 3 site in Hungary from the Middle Miocene. A total of 200 bones have so far been recovered from site at Mátraszőlős 3, of which the identification of 95 bones will be discussed in this article, including anatomical differences between species. Within the fossil record, Palaeocryptonix hungaricus (Jánossy 1991) and three species of Palaeortyx have been identify (P. phasianoides Milne-Edwards, 1869, P. gallica Milne-Edwards, 1869 and P. brevipes Milne-Edwards, 1869). Only one bone of P. brevipes was recovered. As the appearance of the members of the family can be traced back to the early Oligocene, while the majority of the species are of Neogene origin, the study contributes to a better understanding of the distribution of extinct pheasant speciesin the Carpathian Basin.
Variation in small mammal food resource niche metrics of Western Barn Owl (Tyto alba) at the nesting pair and local population level
Authors: Horváth Győző F. , Maurer Máté , Horváth Adrienn 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
In the present study, we investigated food resource niche parameters and the degree of specialization of two local Western Barn Owl (Tyto alba) populations in two different demographic phases as the crash (2015–2016) and outbreak (2019–2020) of the Common Vole (Microtus arvalis). The study was conducted in two parts of the Transdanubian region of Hungary, namely in Duna-Drava National Park (DDNP) in the southeastern part, and in Fertő-Hanság National Park (FHNP) in the north-western part. For the analysis, we used food consumption data of 20–20 randomly selected breeding pairs from the DDNP population, while 14 and 17 breeding pairs in FHNP population in the crash and outbreak periods, respectively. Since the small mammal consumption of owls represented 99.3% of the total number of individuals, only data of small mammals as main food resource were taken into account during the analysis. Based on a trait-based framework which taking into account the resemblance between resources, Rao’s quadratic entropy metrics was used to estimate the food resource niche breadth at local owl populations and the breeding pair level. The small mammal resource utilization of owls was dependent on populations. The niche breadth of DDNP population was significantly smaller than FHNP population. The estimated niche overlap at the individual level was significantly different between the two populations. The calculated value of specialization of barn owl populations was significantly higher in north-western than south-eastern population. The niche breadth of the owl population living in the DDNP was significantly higher during the crash period. In contrast, the estimated niche breadth of the population living in FHNP did not differ significantly between the two demographic phases. Based on our result, the applied trait-based framework of resource niche pattern analysis demonstrated that the differences of niche breadth were explored in more detail by this method between the local Barn Owl populations of different geographical region.
What is the size of the Western Barn Owl (Tyto alba) hunting range in a mosaic landscape?
Authors: Szép Dávid , Purger Jenő J. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Western Barn Owls hunt primarily small mammals in open areas, but they also hunt in urban, forest and wetland habitats. The landscape structure of their hunting range, therefore, affects the composition of their prey, knowledge of which can be a good starting point for estimating the size of their hunting range. Our goal was to estimate whether owls catch most of their prey within a circle with radius of 1, 2, 3, 4 or even 5 kilometres. In this study, we used five pellet samples of different size, collected between 2015 and 2019 from a settlement near the Drava River (Péterhida, Hungary). Our results showed that the annual distribution, diversity, and evenness of small mammal species detected from the samples was similar regardless of the sample size. The distribution of small mammal functional groups preferring urban, open, forest and wetland habitats was also similar. For this reason, the pellet samples were merged. Our results suggest that Western Barn Owls catch a significant part of their prey within a circle of 2-kilometre radius around its breeding or roosting site in the landscape, which consists of patches of habitat with a mosaic distribution. In a hunting range of this size, the proportion of small mammal functional groups preferring different habitats obtained from the pellets overlapped with the proportion of their preferred habitats.
Scavenging by young tortoises (Testudo sp.) could induce their predation by the Eurasian Eagle-Owl (Bubo bubo)
Authors: Milchev Boyan 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Eating owl pellets by non-predator vertebrates is a rare and difficult-to-prove food chain relationship. In this paper, I reported the first record of a Spur-thighed Tortoise (Testudo graeca) eating a Eurasian Eagle-Owl (Bubo bubo) pellet with remains of a right Wood Pigeon (Columba palumbus) wing. Scavenging of food remains around owl nests by young tortoises may possibly explain the few cases of tortoise-eating Eurasian Eagle-Owls.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
This study evaluated the dynamics of Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) in Pan-Asian countries impacted by COVID-19. The countries comprised Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, South Korea, Japan, China, the Philippines, and Hong Kong. The study aimed to understand how the global crisis affected the real estate industry, specifically publicly traded companies. The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted many industries worldwide, including real estate. It caused changes in supply and demand dynamics, disrupted business operations and affected economic activity. The pandemic has also caused a general economic slowdown, with businesses struggling and unemployment rates increasing in some countries in Asia. This in turn has led to reduced consumer spending and lower demand for all types of properties, impacting the overall performance of the Asian REITs market. This study employed techniques such as Sharpe ratio, variance ratio, and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) to highlight the dynamics of Asian REITs towards the impact of COVID-19. The findings revealed that all Asian countries were severely impacted by COVID-19, with Japan REITs experiencing the highest drop and Taiwan REITs experiencing the lowest decline.

Abstract
The paper presents the impact of market characteristics on the rental rate of apartments and compares the levels of the offered rental rate in two selected cities: Rzeszów and Lublin. The analyses were conducted before and during Russia's aggression against Ukraine, based on residential rental offers. Data on the offer of residential premises for rent, posted on online portals in the period from November 2021, to April 2022, was used. The analyses showed an increase in rental prices in March 2022, mainly in Rzeszów, and similar correlations of the impact of characteristics on the market rental rate in both cities in relation to the area of the unit, the number of rooms, the location on the floor, the condition of the flat and the age of the building.
Local Amenities – Spatial Modelling of Market Potential Based on Open Data
Authors: Cellmer Radosław 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This paper presents the concept and methodology for assessing the market potential of local convenience shops in spatial terms. The methods concerned are based on spatial analyses using information derived from open data concerning local population density and competing establishments. The study focused on four main stages, including the estimation of shop density, population density, the compilation of a market potential map, and data reclassification to identify the potential for the location of new shops. The area under study comprised three cities: Łódź, Poznań, and Wrocław. The results of the study suggest that a high market potential does not concern the most populated areas but less populated ones, which is mainly due to much less competition. It was also indicated that the study may serve an important role in terms of sustainable urban development and an improvement in the inhabitants’ quality of life.
Cryptanalysis of a Special Polybius-Like Cipher Using Hill-Climbing
Authors: Antal Eugen 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Polybius cipher is a special substitution system widely used during history. In our research, we found several Polybius-like ciphers used in Czecho-slovakia and in the Slovak State from the first half of the 20th century. Various types of this cipher are described in the first Czechoslovak cryptanalysis manual “šifrovací systémy a návod k luštění kryptogramů” by plk. Josef Růžek. It can be also found in the official cryptology directive called G–VII–8 “šifrování” (encryption) from 1938, and another variant in the new version of the same directive from 1946. In this work, we focus on a special Polybius-like cipher inspired by three real ciphers used in Czechoslovakia and in the Slovak State. Two were used during WW2 and one right after the war. We will show how these ciphers were used and how they can be solved with a modern heuristic approach on a personal computer. We evaluate the effectiveness of the Hill-Climbing heuristic methods with restarts. We also investigated several different fitness functions and language models.

Главна идеја рада је била да се направе модели машинског учења утемељени на графовским неуронским мрежама који би вршили препоруке производа корисницима. Од доступних података о куповним навикама корисника направљен је хетерогени бипартитан граф који садржи чворове корисника и производа, а везе у њему представљају интеракције које су корисници имали са производима. Модели су тестирани на Brazilian E-commerce скупу података. Први модел је користио један енкодер са слојевима графовске неуронске мреже за енкодовање чворова, и један декодер ивица, чија је улога била да прави предикцију оцене коју би корисник дао производу. Други модел је користио посебне енкодере за кориснике и за производе, а такође је имао један декодер ивица. Модел са два енкодера се показао као бољи када се посматра RMSE метрика, а при том је имао и стабилније тренирање.

Analysis of the gut microbiota using MALDI-TOF and cultural techniques in breastfed infants delivered vaginally and through caesarean section
Authors: Bagambila Shruthi , Antony Beena , Dsouza Jane Grace , Devadiga Santhosha , Praseena K. , Rai Sanjeev B. 
Published: December 2023

Objectives:
The gastrointestinal tract of newborns is colonised immediately after birth with microbes from the environment, mainly from the mother. According to studies, the early neonatal microbiota is crucial for developing the postnatal immune system. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between neonatal gut flora and the mode of delivery during gut microbiota colonisation.

Material and Methods:
A total of 30 neonates – 16 born vaginally and 14 by caesarean section – participated in this study of the intestinal bacterial composition at 3 days of age. Stool cultures and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation time-of-flight analyses determine aerobic and anaerobic bacterial species.

Results:
Neonates delivered by caesarean section appeared to have a less diverse gut microbiota regarding bacterial species than vaginally delivered neonates. Bifidobacterium species are absent from the gut microbiota after caesarean delivery. Even though every newborn vaginally born had a unique microbial profile, the most prevalent bacterial species were Streptococcus spp., Veillonella atypica, Bacteroides vulgatus and Bifidobacterium spp.

Conclusion:
Our results suggest that the mode of birth significantly influences the gut microbiota composition in the 1st year of human life. This study opens the path to further investigations to confirm the link between microbiota composition and enterotypes of the gut microbiome of breastfed neonates. In addition, we underline the importance of MALDI-TOF for species-level identification of organisms within a fraction of a second.
