Published: December 2023

Abstract
As an autonomous region consisting of a cluster of small islands in the northern border area of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, Anambas Islands Regency has a remote geographical location, inadequate transportation conditions, and limitations in providing infrastructure, especially basic service infrastructure. The implication of the role as an autonomous region, raises the existence of growth centers on a district scale and other scale growth centers along with economic activities in them on several existing small islands. The role as a growth center on small islands requires the continued provision of sufficient production and distribution resources to meet population consumption growth. The sustainability of the carrying capacity of the environment on the one hand is faced with the role and function of small border islands as regional growth centers that have the potential to develop in the future on the other hand. Based on these problems, it is necessary to map the typology of small islands in order to optimize the role as a center for regional growth and environmental carrying capacity in Anambas Islands Regency. By mapping the typology of small border islands, policy directions for sustainable regional development can be determined for each small border island.

Abstract
This study examines the discourse of developing a coastal road as a solution to protect the western coast of Jepara in the long term from the threat of coastal hazards and climate change. Therefore, attempts to understand the coastal conditions of Jepara in the past, present and future are critical. This study shows the abrasion in the region is inseparable from the history of this area which was formed by the material deposition of Mount Muria. At present, the coastal conditions particularly in Kedung and Tahunan Districts are very prone to abrasion. A result of the Digital Shoreline Analysis System over the last two decades (2001-2020) showed a shift on Kedung District’s coastline ranging from 78-701 meters landward, while it was about 1.4-36.8 meters landward and 10.3-34.5 meters to the seaward in Tahunan District. Analysis of land cover and land use show that most of the loss of land due to abrasion were ponds, rice fields, and settlements. Sea level rise will exacerbate this condition. With the projection of global sea level rise which increase by 21 cm in 2060 and by 53 cm in 2100, ponds, irrigated rice fields and settlements in this region will be submerged with an economic loss of IDR 2.97-3.06 trillion or nearly to USD 205 million. Our study concludes that the construction of coastal road will not provide much of the expected protection function, unless the development of supporting infrastructure, especially polders, and several other supporting options, are developed in an integrated manner.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
Babon is a watershed in Central Java that passes through the Semarang Regency, Semarang City, and Demak Regency. Most of the areas in Babon Watershed are potential residential locations for the community because they are situated on the outskirts of Semarang City. Over the past 20 years, Babon Watershed has experienced a change in land use from agriculture and plantations to residential areas. There have also been flooding incidents in several housing areas along the Babon River. The Semarang City Government currently focuses on developing watersheds in the central and western parts. However, no government intervention has yet to develop the eastern watershed, especially the Babon watershed. Babon watershed management is tricky because three regions pass it, so good governance collaboration from the government and related stakeholders is essential. Therefore, the research aims to assess land use and surface runoff change in the Babon watershed. The research method is quantitative. Data collection methods are secondary data collection and field observations. Data analysis methods are spatial analysis using Geographic Information Systems to determine land use changes and the infiltration areas in the Babon watershed in 2013 and 2023; also analysis of surface runoff water discharge using the rational method. Based on the research results, the Babon watershed has experienced significant changes in land use, with non-developed areas being transformed into developed lands. The increasing transformation from non-developed to developed lands impacts water infiltration areas.

Abstract
Contemporary urbanization process in Indonesia has been entering a regional-based process, which is indicated by the expansion of existing cities and the emergence of small towns in hinterland areas. Semarang Regency is a nonurban district that become hinterland area that is affected by urban extension from Semarang City. The urbanization process in Semarang Regency is characterized by the emergence of towns as urban areas on the outskirts of. This research aims to analyze the development of towns in Semarang Regency using GIS assistance and analyzing their potential in strengthening rural-urban linkages. In addition to GIS method, this research employs descriptive qualitative method. Data collected through document and literature review, which is enriched by primary data collection through observation and interviews. The analysis used descriptive qualitative analysis. To strengthen the argument, analysis is assisted by using scalogram, ISM, LQ, and spatial analysis in the form of network analysis. There are many towns developed in Semarang Regency that tend to be concentrated in the north-west area, adjacent to Semarang City. The development of these towns is supported by the development of public service facilities. In addition to be the public service centers, the towns have potential roles as, processing and marketing centers. However, there is only one town, Bandungan, which has the roles as a center for marketing and public services. Therefore, the regency needs to have facilities development in many towns in order to strengthen the towns’ roles in strengthening rural-urban linkages in the region.

Abstract
SDGs Desa are the policy framework of village development and village community empowerment to achieve sustainable development goals in Indonesia. SDGs Desa in 2030 has one of the targets, which is to community in a fair position without discrimination against women in all aspects of life. In addition, equal opportunities are opened for women in public affairs. This can be achieved by the achievement of all indicators of SDGs Desa goal 5 ‘Involvement of Village Women’ based on the Ministry of Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Regions, and Transmigration of the Republic Indonesia. The involvement of women’s roles in village development is influenced by various things, one of which is a barrier. This is due to women’s responsibilities in carrying out domestic roles so that some of them have limitations to be actively involved in village development. Therefore, this research aims to identify inhibiting factors of women’s roles in development in Bejijong Village, Trowulan Sub-district, Mojokerto Regency, East Java Province. The research was conducted using a deductive qualitative method through field observations, interviews with stakeholders, and documentation. Stakeholders interviewed included government, village organizations, and non-governmental organizations. The results showed that there are inhibiting factors in the form of demands for domestic roles. Even so, village development activities involving the role of women continue because there are women in Bejijong Village who can overcome these inhibiting factors and are active in the public sphere. In overcoming these inhibiting factors, women are supported by family support and adequate facilities from the village government. Keywords: women’s role, rural development, sustainable development; inhibiting’s factors mapping, Bejijong Village, Mojokerto Regency.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
Population growth and economic development can lead to increased housing demand amid limitations and rising land prices in the City of Semarang, Indonesia. One effort to overcome this challenge has involved shifting the approach to providing shelter to building vertical housing. However, various problems have emerged which suggest that vertical housing is not currently relevant to the socio-economic characteristics of its inhabitants. Thus, this study aims to determine the relevance of vertical housing to residents’ socio-economic characteristics particularly in proximity of public facility aspects. To achieve the research objective, this research uses quantitative research method. Importance–performance analysis (IPA) uses to determine the relevance of vertical housing to residents’ socio-economic characteristics and geospasial tools use to analyze descriptively the proximity of public facilities. Based on the relevance analysis, it can be concluded that the relevance between residents in apartments and residents in flats has some differences. This could happen because of differences in the location and financial capability of residents in apartment and flat. Performance improvement is needed, especially on economic factors for apartments and accessibility factors for low-cost flats so that vertical housing can become more relevant. Therefore, these findings can become input in formulating a policy for providing affordable vertical housing in the Semarang that is well-suited to the socio-economic characteristics of its inhabitants.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
The study analyzes the environmental condition of regions to analyze the need to implement changes in environmental trade policy to reduce greenhouse gases and anthropogenic impacts on the regional ecosystem. Identified ways to reduce greenhouse gases, one of which is to change consumer preferences in favor of purchasing eco-friendly products. These have a minimal negative impact on the ecosystem during the life cycle without creating a large number of greenhouse gases during production that can be recycled. The study analyzes the possibilities of reducing the ecological footprint due to changes in energy consumption as the main tool for overcoming the accumulation of negative environmental effects. The environmental damage caused by the war in Ukraine is more than 50 million dollars. The environmental impact of the war in Ukraine is more than $50 million, which can be reduced through a complete reorganisation of the country’s production and everyday life. The study substantiates the environmental trade policy aimed at reducing greenhouse gases and introducing the latest technologies and digitalization achievements. Regional management of greenhouse gas emissions is proposed based on the possibility of selling one’s emissions quotas to other countries to reduce the negative environmental footprint.

Abstract
The indirect and direct taxation mechanism is examined in the article. It is determined that a significant place in total income part of the Ukraine’s state budget is occupied by indirect taxes, but the larger share falls on direct taxes. The structure and dynamics of indirect taxes in budget of Ukraine were carried out. The biggest disadvantages of the taxation existing system are established. It is suggested to add new principles to the legislative principles of taxation, their compliance will strengthen the country’s tax system. The indicators of the tax burden and profitability of three business forestry entities are analyzed. It was established the existence of a closeness between the tax burden and the financial results of forestry companies via using the coefficients of correlation and determination. Ways to improve indirect and direct taxation in Ukraine in terms of some indirect taxes are proposed (VAT, excise tax and toll). The problems of applying the environmental tax in Ukraine are identified and ways to eliminate them are suggested. The new formula for calculating the single forest tax is developed. The advantages of its use are substantiated.
Detection of common EEG phenomena using individual electrodes placed outside the hair

Published: December 2023

Abstract
Many studies over the past decades have provided exciting evidence that electrical signals recorded from the scalp (electroencephalogram, EEG) hold meaningful information about the brain’s function or dysfunction. This information is used routinely in research laboratories to test specific hypotheses and in clinical settings to aid in diagnoses (such as during polysomnography evaluations). Unfortunately, with very few exceptions, such meaningful information about brain function has not yet led to valuable solutions that can address the needs of many people outside such research laboratories or clinics. One of the major hurdles to practical application of EEG-based neurotechnologies is the current predominant requirement to use electrodes that are placed in the hair, which greatly reduces practicality and cosmesis. While several studies reported results using one specific combination of signal/reference electrode outside the hair in one specific context (such as a brain-computer interface experiment), it has been unclear what information about brain function can be acquired using different signal/referencing locations placed outside the hair. To address this issue, in this study, we set out to determine to what extent EEG phenomena related to auditory, visual, cognitive, motor, and sleep function can be detected from different combinations of individual signal/referencing electrodes that are placed outside the hair. The results of our study from 15 subjects suggest that only a few EEG electrodes placed in locations on the forehead or around the ear can provide substantial task-related information in 6 of 7 tasks. Thus, the results of our study provide encouraging evidence and guidance that should invigorate and facilitate the translation of laboratory experiments into practical, useful, and valuable EEG-based neurotechnology solutions.
A comprehensive review on microchannel heat sinks for electronics cooling
Authors: Yu Zhi-Qiang , Li Mo-Tong , Cao Bing-Yang 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The heat generation of electronic devices is increasing dramatically, which causes a serious bottleneck in the thermal management of electronics, and overheating will result in performance deterioration and even device damage. With the development of micro-machining technologies, the microchannel heat sink (MCHS) has become one of the best ways to remove the considerable amount of heat generated by high-power electronics. It has the advantages of large specific surface area, small size, coolant saving and high heat transfer coefficient. This paper comprehensively takes an overview of the research progress in MCHSs and generalizes the hotspots and bottlenecks of this area. The heat transfer mechanisms and performances of different channel structures, coolants, channel materials and some other influencing factors are reviewed. Additionally, this paper classifies the heat transfer enhancement technology and reviews the related studies on both the single-phase and phase-change flow and heat transfer. The comprehensive review is expected to provide a theoretical reference and technical guidance for further research and application of MCHSs in the future.
Impact of surfactant-assisted synthesis on the structural, optical, and dielectric characteristics of ZnO nanoparticles
Authors: Kumar Deepak , Singh Rajveer , Gautam Meenakshi 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
In this study, the enhancement of ZnO’s dielectric properties is pursued through the manipulation of its particle size using a surfactant-based approach. The synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles with the aid of surfactants is achieved through the sol–gel method. Through x-ray diffraction analysis, the formation of the desired Wurtzite structure is confirmed, with no secondary phases detected. The surface characteristics of the synthesized powders are examined through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), both of which highlight the even distribution of the surfactant-assisted nanoparticles. The crystallite size is quantified using Scherrer’s formula. UV-visible spectroscopy and photoluminescence are employed to delve into the optical properties. Dielectric behavior is assessed across a frequency range of 20 Hz to 4000 kHz at room temperature. Comparative analysis between ZnO samples grown with and without surfactants reveals that those with surfactant assistance display heightened capacitance, a notably higher dielectric constant, increased AC conductivity, and longer transit time.
Systematic analysis of the transcriptional landscape of melanoma reveals drug-target expression plasticity
Authors: Balderson Brad , Fane Mitchell , Harvey Tracey J , Piper Michael , Smith Aaron , Bodén Mikael 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Metastatic melanoma originates from melanocytes of the skin. Melanoma metastasis results in poor treatment prognosis for patients and is associated with epigenetic and transcriptional changes that reflect the developmental program of melanocyte differentiation from neural crest stem cells. Several studies have explored melanoma transcriptional heterogeneity using microarray, bulk and single-cell RNA-sequencing technologies to derive data-driven models of the transcriptional-state change which occurs during melanoma progression. No study has systematically examined how different models of melanoma progression derived from different data types, technologies and biological conditions compare. Here, we perform a cross-sectional study to identify averaging effects of bulk-based studies that mask and distort apparent melanoma transcriptional heterogeneity; we describe new transcriptionally distinct melanoma cell states, identify differential co-expression of genes between studies and examine the effects of predicted drug susceptibilities of different cell states between studies. Importantly, we observe considerable variability in drug-target gene expression between studies, indicating potential transcriptional plasticity of melanoma to down-regulate these drug targets and thereby circumvent treatment. Overall, observed differences in gene co-expression and predicted drug susceptibility between studies suggest bulk-based transcriptional measurements do not reliably gauge heterogeneity and that melanoma transcriptional plasticity is greater than described when studies are considered in isolation.

Published: December 2023

Abstract

Aims
This study explores the phosphate (Pi)-solubilizing characteristics and mechanisms of a novel phosphate-solubilizing bacterium, Agrobacterium deltaense C1 (C1 hereafter).

Methods and results
The growth-promoting effects of C1 were investigated by gnotobiotic experiments, and the Pi-solubilizing mechanism was revealed by extracellular metabolomics, liquid chromatography analysis, and reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results showed that C1 significantly increased Arabidopsis biomass and total phosphorus (P) content under P deficiency. Under Ca3(PO4)2 condition, the presence of C1 resulted in a significant and negative correlation between available P content and medium pH changes, implying that Pi dissolution occurs through acid release. Metabolomics revealed C1’s ability to release 99 organic acids, with gluconic acid (GA), citric acid, and α-ketoglutaric acid contributing 64.86%, 9.58%, and 0.94%, respectively, to Pi solubilization. These acids were significantly induced by P deficiency. Moreover, C1’s Pi solubilization may remain significant even in the presence of available P, as evidenced by substantial pH reduction and high gcd gene expression. Additionally, C1 produced over 10 plant growth-promoting substances.

Conclusions
C1 dissolves Pi primarily by releasing GA, which enhances plant growth under P deficiency. Notably, its Pi solubilization effect is not significantly limited by available Pi.
The cosmic dipole in the Quaia sample of quasars: a Bayesian analysis
Authors: Mittal Vasudev , Oayda Oliver T , Lewis Geraint F 
Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT
We present a Bayesian analysis of the Quaia sample of 1.3 million quasars as a test of the cosmological principle. This principle postulates that the Universe is homogeneous and isotropic on sufficiently large scales, forming the basis of prevailing cosmological models. However, recent analyses of quasar samples have found a matter dipole inconsistent with the inferred kinematic dipole of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), representing a tension with the expectations of the cosmological principle. Here, we explore various hypotheses for the distribution of quasars in Quaia, finding that the sample is influenced by selection effects with significant contamination near the Galactic Plane. After excising these regions, we find significant evidence that the Quaia quasar dipole is consistent with the CMB dipole, both in terms of the expected amplitude and direction. This result is in conflict with recent analyses, lending support to the cosmological principle and the interpretation that the observed dipole is due to our local departure from the Hubble flow.
