Spatio-temporal dynamics of ecosystem service value functions in response to landscape fragmentation in Boma-Gambella trans-boundary landscape, Southwest Ethiopia and East South Su... by Azemir Berhanu Getahun, Amare Bantider Dagnew, Desalegn Yayeh Ayal

“…Utilizing integrated spatial modeling tools such as ArcGIS 10.7, FRAGSTAT 4.2, and benefit transfer approach, the research analyzes landscape fragmentation and the dynamics of ecosystem service value functions. The findings indicate a significant conversion of natural landscapes, resulting in increased fragmentation, a reduction in ecological land, altered landscape metrics and intensified trade-offs and mismatches in ecosystem service value functions. …”

“…Objective To systematically review the effects of preoperative and postoperative resistance exercise training on the recovery of physical function in patients undergoing abdominal surgery for cancer.Data sources A systematic review of English articles using Medline, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, CINAHL and the Cochrane Library electronic databases was undertaken.Eligibility criteria for selecting studies Studies were included if they used a randomised, quasi-randomised or controlled trial study design and compared the effects of a muscle-strengthening exercise intervention (±other therapy) with a comparative non-exercise group; involved adult participants (≥18 years) who had elected to undergo abdominal surgery for cancer; and used muscle strength, physical function, self-reported functional ability, range of motion and/or a performance-based test as an outcome measure.Results Following screening of titles and abstracts of the 588 publications retrieved from the initial search, 24 studies met the inclusion criteria and were accessed for review of the full-text version of the article, and 2 eligible studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. …”

System Eliminating Emergency Discharges in Industrial Facilities Waste Waters Using Relative Signal Description by V. A. Alekseev, S. I. Yuran, V. P. Usoltsev, D. N. Shulmin

“…The relative description on the components of the lattice function of the spectrum of emergency discharges is used, constructed using the order ratio between the components of the lattice function.The emergency discharge identification can be implemented by comparing the relative description of the emergency discharge spectrum with the reference spectra for the harmful substances that can be present at the given industrial facility, and the standards of the spectra of these substances are presented in the form of a relative description using the ratio “more”–“less”.The authors provide a flow chart for the emergency discharge elimination system, describe its operation and the functions fulfilled by its elements. …”
