Scaling Arctic Landscape And Permafrost Features Improves Active Layer Depth Modeling, Wouter Hantson, Daryl Yang, Shawn P. Serbin, Joshua B. Fisher, Daniel J. Hayes
Scaling Arctic Landscape And Permafrost Features Improves Active Layer Depth Modeling, Wouter Hantson, Daryl Yang, Shawn P. Serbin, Joshua B. Fisher, Daniel J. Hayes
Biology, Chemistry, and Environmental Sciences Faculty Articles and Research
Tundra ecosystems in the Arctic store up to 40% of global below-ground organic carbon but are exposed to the fastest climate warming on Earth. However, accurately monitoring landscape changes in the Arctic is challenging due to the complex interactions among permafrost, micro-topography, climate, vegetation, and disturbance. This complexity results in high spatiotemporal variability in permafrost distribution and active layer depth (ALD). Moreover, these key tundra processes interact at different scales, and an observational mismatch can limit our understanding of intrinsic connections and dynamics between above and below-ground processes. Consequently, this could limit our ability to model and anticipate how ALD …
Indonesia Passenger’S Right Compensation For Transport Accidents: Is It Fulfilling A Sense Of Justice?, Siti Nurbaiti
Indonesia Passenger’S Right Compensation For Transport Accidents: Is It Fulfilling A Sense Of Justice?, Siti Nurbaiti
Hasanuddin Law Review
The mode of transportation—whether on land, at sea, or in the air—plays a crucial role in passenger mobility across various countries. Between passengers and carriers, binding contracts establish their legal relationship. However, a persistent issue remains: to what extent should carriers be held liable in cases of loss, injury, or death of passengers, and what are their obligations regarding compensation? The key question revolves around the scope of the carrier's responsibility to compensate passengers. As such, regulations governing carrier liability and compensation have become a critical focus in international legal studies, including in Indonesia, with comparisons drawn to several Southeast …

Hasanuddin Law Review
With the outbreak of Covid-19 globally, many measures were taken to reduce this epidemic’s effects. The most important of these was the advice to stay home, which became the main line of witness slogans. With this recommendation, schools, offices, and factories were closed. The Covid-19 epidemic has had a profound effect on people’s lifestyles and is likely to have other consequences. The article’s main question is: What opportunities and challenges do the Covid epidemic pose to the environment, and how does it affect environmental rights? Quarantine policies have led to reduced production and transportation and a significant reduction in the …

Fishing Quota And International Obligation: Why Has Indonesia Been Indicated As A Non-Compliant State, Rachma Indriyani, Asmar Abdul Rahim, Ruzita Azmi
Hasanuddin Law Review
Indonesia committed to conserving the tuna resources by participating in some RFMOs. From all regional organizations where Indonesia has been joined, the CCSBT is the unique one, due to it governs a single tuna species, which is called Southern Bluefin Tuna. This kind of tuna is essential for Indonesia because it is the world’s most expensive tuna and SBT migrates through Indonesian fisheries management zones and goes even further within the territorial waters, where the SBT spawning area is located. This natural characteristic distinguishes Indonesia from other Parties to CCSBT. Nevertheless, the Country has been dealing with its obligation to …
Examining The Current Utilization Of Conceptual Data Modeling In Database Modeling Practices: Mixed Methods Research, Abhishek Sharma
Examining The Current Utilization Of Conceptual Data Modeling In Database Modeling Practices: Mixed Methods Research, Abhishek Sharma
Dissertations
The database system is essential to modern life and helps us in our day-to-day existence, even though it is invisible to us. The most optimal way to architect a new but efficient database is a modeling technique called conceptual data modeling. Despite this importance, research studies have suggested a divergence between actual practice and the ideal expectation from practitioners. Therefore, it was imperative to establish the ground truth in this context and explore the reasons behind the gap between practice and expectation. This mixed-method study used a survey and interviews to establish that only a small fraction of practitioners consistently …
Rethinking The Relationship Between Capitalism And Environmental Sustainability: Locating Nigeria Within The Globe, Chukwuebuka Emmanuel Madu
Rethinking The Relationship Between Capitalism And Environmental Sustainability: Locating Nigeria Within The Globe, Chukwuebuka Emmanuel Madu
Master's Theses
The relationship between capitalism and environmental sustainability and how problems arising from this relationship can be resolved globally and locally is vital for those with economic and environmental concerns. The environment that provides human beings with essential survival needs has to be preserved if these needs are expected to be available for future generations while also being enough for the present generation of human beings. One obstacle to protecting the environment is climate change due to global warming. What is responsible for global warming that ultimately leads to environmental unsustainability? This study pursues this question by rethinking the relationship between …

Government Policies For Food Sovereignty: Disjunction Between Ideality And Reality, Fitrinela Patonangi, Aminuddin Ilmar, Irwansyah Irwansyah, Iin Karita Sakharina
Hasanuddin Law Review
The conceptualizes food security and food sovereignty as fluid and changing discourses that define the problem of hunger. The discursive geohistories of food security and food sovereignty in order to identify oppositions and relationalities between them. I argue that the interpretations of, and relations between, food security and food sovereignty vary by geography and scale, as well as by the conceptual and theoretical differences within the discourses themselves. When and where these discourses develop and emerge is central to understanding their oppositions and convergences. How scale is constructed within particular discourses is also important to understanding how they co-exist relationally …

Hasanuddin Law Review
Water resource politics are often overlooked for jurisdictional perspectives, or difficult to comprehend for the politics unfolding behind the scenes. Using Indonesia as a case study, we synthesized all water-related bureaucracies to generate a list of “Water resource Issue-Elements,†which served as a framework for translating actor-centered power dynamics. The data is based on policies reviewed from 2014 to 2017, coinciding with the beginning of a new presidential administration with heightened interests in water resource management. The study found that while the central coordinating and planning bureaucracies wield the strongest network power, two sectoral bureaucracies hold tremendous influence in guiding …

Decriminalizing Disease: A Health Justice Approach To Infectious Diseases And Criminal Law, Sean E. Bland
Decriminalizing Disease: A Health Justice Approach To Infectious Diseases And Criminal Law, Sean E. Bland
Arkansas Law Review
Infectious diseases, also called communicable diseases, are largely a public health issue and should not be criminalized. This Article seeks to re-frame the discussion around the legal framework for infectious diseases in a way that moves beyond a punishment mindset and toward a health justice mindset. The focus in this Article is on health justice rather than traditional understandings of public health, defined as the science and practice of improving the health of people and their communities. The Article makes three novel contributions. First, it applies a health justice framework to the critique of infectious disease criminalization. Second, the Article …

Monstrosity And Ecophobia In Frankenstein, Moby Dick, And Dracula, Enas Hassouneh, Raja Al-Khalili
Monstrosity And Ecophobia In Frankenstein, Moby Dick, And Dracula, Enas Hassouneh, Raja Al-Khalili
Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series
Since ancient times, images of monsters have appeared in many works and served as embodiments of human fears and sources of ecophobia. Monstrosity evoked contempt, hatred, and ultimately ecophobia, which Estok describes as irrational fear, contempt, or lack of mindfulness toward the natural environment. This paper explores the character of the monster as an embodiment of ecophobia in three Gothic novels: Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1818), Herman Melville’s Moby Dick (1851), and Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1897), by interpreting monstrosity in socio-cultural contexts. The following questions will be addressed: How is monstrosity represented? How do monsters exhibit ecophobia? What role does the …

Landslide Susceptibility Assessment Of The Wanzhou District: Merging Landslide Susceptibility Modelling (Lsm) With Insar-Derived Ground Deformation Map, Chao Zhou, Lulu Gan, Ying Cao, Yue Wang, Samuele Segoni, Xuguo Shi, Mahdi Motagh, Ramesh P. Singh
Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research
The prevalent catalog-based Landslide Susceptibility Modelling (LSM) operates under the assumption that future landslide occurrences mirror past and current patterns. Due to growing urban expansion and climate change, certain landslides follow new patterns of occurrence, disrupting the foundational assumption of catalog-based LSM and leading to constraints in the effectiveness of traditional susceptibility maps. Here, to address this problem, we proposed a method to produce more accurate and dynamic landslide susceptibility maps by coupling advanced Ensemble Machine Learning (EML) and Multi-Temporal Interferometric SAR (MT-InSAR). The Wanzhou District in Three Gorges Reservoir area of China is considered as the test site. The …

Foreign Territorial Sea-Zures: Article I Supports The Application Of The Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act To Drug Trafficking Within Foreign Territorial Seas, Ryan R. Babb
Florida Law Review
Maritime drug trafficking poses a serious threat to the security and societal well-being of the United States. As one of the largest consumers of foreign-cultivated illicit drugs, the United States serves as a lucrative market for international drug trafficking organizations. Exploiting this insatiable demand, drug traffickers often use maritime routes in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, and the Gulf of Mexico to convey bulk quantities of drugs ultimately bound for the United States. The United States Coast Guard, which is charged with stopping drug traffickers within this six million square mile maritime zone, faces a task akin to …

School Travel Behaviors In Rural Communities: Pandemic-Related Impacts, Kevin Chang, Xinyi Li, Ahmed Abdel-Rahim
CSET Project Reports
The global pandemic, which started around early 2020, significantly disrupted life for many families, and the trip to and from school was not immune to these disruptions. Parents and children alike made travel adjustments depending on their preferences with regard to personal health and safety, social distancing, and aversion to risk. Each school district and individual school also made decisions with regard to in-person or remote learning during this period of uncertainty. In this study, the research team examines how the pandemic affected school transportation for hundreds of families across the Pacific Northwest. An online survey was developed and administered …
Rural, Gifted Student Experience In Appalachian Kentucky, Olivia G. Jarrell
Rural, Gifted Student Experience In Appalachian Kentucky, Olivia G. Jarrell
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Capstones
Current literature shows that gifted students' experiences often differ from nongifted peers. Similarly, research shows that rural students’ experiences are unique compared to nonrural peers. This study hopes to address the gap in literature on experiences of students at the intersection of giftedness and rurality with the question: How do rural, gifted students in Appalachian Kentucky experience and perceive K-12 schooling? Rural, gifted students exist in the overlap between two unique groups. Using a multi-case study, participants came from three separate school districts in a region of Appalachian Kentucky, with each district being a separate case. Data collection included observations …

Climate Change: Impact On Coastal Habitation By Doeke Eisma (Ed.), C. Nicholas Raphael
The Geographical Bulletin
The coast is the meeting place of continents and oceans and a zone of interest and concern to a diverse group of social and physical scientist. The notion thatthe earth's climate is changing due to the release of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide is widespread. Increase of fossil fuel consumption is anticipated to result in higher temperatures, weather alterations, dramatic changes in the present-day global agricultural zones, and higher eustatic sea levels due to melting glacial ice.

Population-Environment Dynamics. Ideas And Observations. (4th Edition) By Gay Ld. Ness, William D. Drake, Steven R. Brechin, Editors., Wendy Shaw
The Geographical Bulletin
Population and the environment are intertwined in a complex web that demands the analysis of numerous theoretical and practical issues. These issues have been neglected in the past, and the topics of population and the environment artificially separated in both thought and action. This book attempts to fill these voids using an inductive and interdisciplinary approach. A series of authors contribute fifteen chapters organized into five sections. Section I explores global per - spectives relating to population and the environment, Section II analyzes the im - portance of the state as an actor, Section III focuses on population-environment dynamics in …
Transformation Of Japan's Rural Landscape And Economy: The Case Of A Rice Growing Village In Central Japan, Akira Tabayashi
Transformation Of Japan's Rural Landscape And Economy: The Case Of A Rice Growing Village In Central Japan, Akira Tabayashi
The Geographical Bulletin
Rural regions and communities in Japan have changed drastically following the rapid economic development that occurred in the 1960s and the beginning of the 1970s. Important outcomes of rural changes were the rapid outflow of labor from rural areas and the increase in the number of part-time farmers. This paper mainly focuses its attention on the evolutionary processes of rural regions over three decades from 1960 to the present, through a case study of a typical Japanese village named Urayamashin. The traditional rice growing village transformed itself into a non-farming village in the early 1970s partly because of a reduction …

Rediscovering The Roots Of Moroccan Geography In An Era Of Interdependence, Donald J. Zeigler, Driss Fassi
The Geographical Bulletin
The indigenous traditions of Moroccan geography, pioneered by such figures as AI Idrisi and Ibn Khaldun during the classical period of Arab intellectual history (1000-1400), came to be ignored and then replaced with the establishment of a French protectorate in 1912. The era of independence in Moroccan geography was supplanted by an era of dependence on European scholarship, which emphasized resource exploitation and which was to last until political independence in 1956. Following that watershed year, intellectual inquiry became more independent and focused on the development needs of the nation. Following a period of Moroccanization in the 1970s, which included …
