title: Effects of Forest Fragmentation on Carbon Sequestration and Respiration at Harvard Forest since 2016

description: Forest loss/fragmentation can have profound impacts on the terrestrial carbon (C) cycle by reducing forest uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2; the primary driver of anthropogenic climate change) through photosynthesis and C storage in forest biomass. Relative to intact rural forests, trees growing in forest fragments within developed landscapes typically experience conditions that can enhance growth such as warmer and longer growing seasons (i.e. urban heat island effect) and greater light and nutrient availability (e.g., nitrogen deposition) as well as conditions that can hinder growth such as increased exposure to damaging pollutants such as ozone and higher rates of disturbance. Our research quantifies the impact of fragmentation on C uptake and respiration near forest edges.
 In 2016 six 600‐m2 plots were installed along forest edges at the HF, measuring 20 m along the forest edge and extending 30 m into the forest perpendicular to the forest edge. Plot biomass was mapped and tree cores were taken in all trees &gt;10cm diameter. The plots were installed at multiple edge aspects and adjacent land cover types (three meadows, two pastures, and one road). Within each plot, a pair of polyvinyl chloride soil respiration collars 20 cm in diameter × 7 cm tall and located 10 m apart was inserted approximately 2 cm into the soil at four distances from the edge (0, 10, 20, and 30m). Each plot had n = 8 collars for a total of n = 48 collars. Following installation, collars were left in the soil for at least 2 weeks to equilibrate. Air temperature, relative humidity, soil temperature, and soil moisture were logged along the center plot transect.

title: Navigating the smallpox threat in colonial Fiji: Vaccination endeavours and historical challenges

description: Upon its cession from 1874 to 1970, Fiji was under the British colonial government, and the colonial government attempted to control the spread of smallpox in the colony. The vaccination of Smallpox in the colonial era was effectively eradicated and controlled by the colonial authority with the help of Native Medical Practitioners. This paper looks at how smallpox was prevented and controlled in Fiji. The control drive was established, executed, and expanded in the face of all medical, financial, logistical, social, political, and geographical challenges. Indeed, this paper examines the relationship between native and colonial administrations in tackling the spread of smallpox. The changes in vaccination policies’ formulation, implementation, and budgetary in Colonial Fiji were also examined in this paper. This research helps fill in the gaps in our understanding of the effects of colonial health policy in Fiji by focusing on the vaccination of indentured labourers and the construction of quarantine centres. By examining the historical backdrop of smallpox vaccination in colonial Fiji, this research has the potential to provide significant insights that can be utilized to improve the efficacy of contemporary public health initiatives, particularly in environments characterized by cultural diversity.

title: The place of Somali in the resistance of Ethiopia against the Italian colonial forces in the Ogaden, 1915 to 1941

description: The study investigated the role of Somalis in Ethiopia’s struggle against Italian colonial forces in the Ogaden region from 1915 to 1941, which has been overlooked in existing literature. The research was conducted using an exploratory design and qualitative data obtained from primary records, oral evidence, and secondary sources. The relationship between Ethiopia and Italian forces in the Ogaden frontiers from 1915 to 1935 was characterized by tensions due to Italian incursions and Ethiopian resistance. The Somali people, who considered the Italians as threats to their socio-economic wellbeing, resisted the invasion of their territories in the Ogaden from 1915 onwards. They played a crucial role in the Ethiopian resistance by providing information, logistics, and combatants. Notable figures such as Omer Semeter, Ali Nur, Erzi Jama, <i>Sultan</i> Bede, Hussein Elmie, Ahmed Hashi, and Mahamud Ebrahim organized the Somalis in the resistance against the Italian colonial forces. Although there are pieces of literature related to Ethiopia’s resistance against Italian colonial forces, most of them are geographically confined to the north and temporally limited from 1935 to 1941. Moreover, existing literature on Ethiopian resistance in the Ogaden mainly focuses on defensive wars headed by higher nobles. This study reveals historical realities that have been made invisible in historical literature by highlighting the contributions of local peoples of the Ogaden who participated in the resistance against Italian invasion.

title: The National Data Center proposals between macro modelling and micro targeting

description: As computer technology got more advanced during the 1960s, scientists used it to build economic models, run simulations and make predictions. But the gist of any method was a solid data base. Therefore, a committee of the Social Science Research Council developed a proposal for a Federal Data Center within the United States government. The Bureau of the Budget developed the idea further into a National Data Center proposal provoking a well-known debate on privacy. Less is known about how the proposals originally emerged. One goal was the access to microdata on individual units which were necessary for statistical operations such as correlation or matching of data sets. The article argues that the data center demonstrates the shift towards statistics based on micro units to build macro models. Scientists, however, faced obstacles such as rules concerning confidentiality and disclosure of data as well as a decentral structure of federal statistics, and their interests differed from the interests of politics.

title: Tobacco plantation concessions and communal land rights in East Sumatra: Analysis of the four standard concessions in the colonial era (1877 – 1892)

description: This study examines the historical evolution of land law during the Dutch East Indian colonial period, with a particular emphasis on the land use management policy for the benefit of foreign plantations in East Sumatra. The introduction of foreign investment in tobacco plantations in the region provided the Sultan of Deli and local village leaders with a novel experience. They encountered the concept of long-term concession contracts for land that was formerly communally owned by the Malay people. Several issues arose due to signing these contracts, including the status of communal land now used for tobacco cultivation and the compatibility of these agreements with Western legal principles. Archival materials and colonial data were used to examine the historical aspects of the subjects. Ultimately, this study reached two significant conclusions. First, the implementation of long-term concession contracts diminished the autonomy of communal land administration among Malays. Second, the customary community, led by the Sultan of Deli, retained complete ownership rights over the land following the applicable principles of the civil law code.

title: Disentangling the relationship between the middle class and peasantry in the Naxalbari movement through the Lives of Others (2014)

description: This paper aims to explore the relationship between the middle class and the peasantry in the Naxalbari movement and thus demystify the romanticism around the association of the middle class with it. The Naxalbari movement (1965–1975) was the first peasant movement within twenty years of Indian Independence that erupted in a small village named Naxalbari in the Darjeeling district of West Bengal, India. The goal of the movement was to remove the class hierarchy prevalent in society. But this study explores how the class hierarchy developed within the movement with the ascendancy of the middle class to the leadership positions that led to the marginalisation of peasants. In the paper, I shall investigate the layers in the relationship between the middle class and the peasantry. For this purpose, I propose to use <i>The Lives of Others</i> (2014) by Neil Mukherjee to disentangle the layers within the superficially homogenous middle class and thereby identify a pattern in the relationship between the two classes. While most historical studies show how the middle-class hegemony was established in the movement, this paper subverts it by recognising the loopholes of the middle class’s leadership. This paper also seeks an alternative model of peasants’ protest free from the supervision of the middle class through the conclusion that briefly presents the success of the peasants in their independent attempt to unite. So, in this paper, the text is used to unpack the wider intricacies in the class relationship and the failure of any exterior force to lead a movement of the peasants.

title: Exploring indigenous drama elements in Kurfewe, Gichame, and Weyeg traditional folk performances of the Gurage people, Ethiopia

description: This study analyzed the indigenous drama elements of Kurfewe, Gichame, and Weyeg traditional folk performances among the Gurage people. Using an ethnographic study methodology, data was collected through 20 in-depth interviews, 3 focus group discussions, 5 key informant interviews, and document analysis. The snowball sampling method guided the selection of informants from Muhur Aklil, Abshegi, Cheha, and Ezhaworedas based on local recommendations. Local language data were translated into English using a literal translation approach while preserving original meaning. The study found that Kurfewe, Gichame, and Weyeg encompassed various indigenous drama elements, including location, properties, costumes, verbal and physical responses, imitation, role distribution, actor/audience separation, and representational acting. These traditional performances served different purposes. Kurfewe provided entertainment and commemorated Jesus Christ’s suffering while preserving ancestral culture and facilitating spouse-finding. Gichame expressed gratitude to God and the Virgin Mary, enhanced group energy during work, and enlivened events. Weyeg entertained, praised gods and goddesses, recognized exemplary individuals, engaged in constructive criticism, and more. Categorically, Kurfewe was a calendric performance following Easter, Gichame encompassed calendric, seasonal (weddings), and occasional (Debo) categories, and Weyeg included periodical (praising Waq and Demuamit), seasonal (weddings), and occasional (honoring individuals) performances. In summary, this study provided insights into the indigenous drama elements and roles of Kurfewe, Gichame, and Weyeg among the Gurage people. These traditional performances showcased unique cultural expressions and served various purposes, contributing to the rich traditional performing arts heritage of the Gurage culture.
