Abstract:
According to Democritus' anthropogeny is a microcosmic consequence within the process of cosmogony. However, the case of man is a peculiarity: man, this atom complex, is well aware of himself, yet is not aware of what he must do. Man does not naturally do that which promotes the harmonious ordering of his atoms. We must create a second nature. Now it becomes possible for us to be as we must be according to our first nature. Democritus is the is first thinker who explains to us what our nature is and who, from our being, derives an ought: he who wishes to do the right thing for both himself and others finds himself subject to the ought requirement to do that which brings the most calm to the atoms. This is a direct connection between being and ought, an extravagant mechanical existentialism.

Abstract:
<p>The questions of unity and variety of forms in nature are discussed In the presentpaper. Refers to the process of shaping the teeth, structural and functional unit of the tooth is determined: canine module – odontomer. The common structure of the tooth, hand and foot is demonstrated, moreover the morphological similarity is manifested at the stage of human embryo – histogenesis. Thus, at the stage of bookmarks, formation, growth and development of certain organs of a human embryo (hands, feet and teeth) one can see some similarity of their structure, the internal order of the morphological units (fingers, enameldentinal rollers), which describes the universal law of creation – "the golden proportion" . Dentists have to know the anatomy of the organs and tissues of the oral cavity very well when restoring the teeth. Also dentists should study their phylogeny, anthropogeny,ontogeny in order to reconstruct the missing tissue in their original form, in harmony. The stages of dental restorations made of composite materials based on modular technology are shown.</p><p>We have proposed a matrix model for shaping the crown of a tooth. At the base of a tooth crown several modules – odontometrs are laid, which are directed to the fissure of the first order. A doctor deliberately puts missing edges, filling empty spaces with composite material, thus performing a specific algorithm of a tooth construction. While restoration the missing tissue you operate with the canine tooth module and composite material and fill a tooth crown.</p><p>Thus, we consider a canine tooth as the initial unit, fractal part of ontogenesis of dento-facial system of a person in accordance with the set laws which are typical for the modular (fractal) structural organization.</p>

Abstract:
The territory of the study of the Right Bank Polissya in this article is extremely vivid and dotted, it is possible to outline the following main tasks: the territorial physical and geographical differentiation of the region in the context of the methodology of studying the food traditions of the Polischuk; assessment of the territory for the prospects of practical management of gastronomic tourism within the united territorial communities. In general, the Polesie region is not a zonal phenomenon, and its origin is connected with paleogeographic conditions of anthropogeny, therefore it is the physical and geographical edge of the zone of mixed forests of the East European country. The involvement of geographic science in the study of the history of food prints of the Polyschuk in the original landscapes of residence deserves detailed study. The nutrition of the Polischuk apparently bears the landscape-specific consumption of food in certain areas. Organically healthy food demonstrates the geological past and predicts a nutrition system at the present stage without paying attention to the pace of the urban food culture. Under certain circumstances and with the complication of natural conditions, the gastronomy of the Polischuk differed by simple gastronomic markers, but not coarse and not perfect processes for the preparation of autochthonous dishes. The consideration of the physical and geographical preconditions for the formation of gastronomic tourism resources in the region contributed to the popularization of the gastronomic industry in a certain retrospective period. In Ukraine, tourism was underdeveloped, until 1914, when tourism activities were carried out by the Russian Society of Tourists and the Polish Local History Society. The study of physical and geographical regionalization of the region at an angle of gastronomic tourism is almost unknown. At the time there is a rather interesting scientific issue for the territory of the Right-bank Polissya in the reflections of the feeding of the Polischuk. But a significant financial leverage for the development of the united territorial communities is to have gastronomic tours within the boundaries of their original habitats and the transfer of gastronomic practices to a wide tourist community

Abstract:
Any changes to anthropogenic impact within the watersheds involving the transformation of ecosystem relationships cause irreversible changes in the structure and composition of sediments. The objective of the research was to analytically compare the results of the study on heavy metals in Ustia River sediments with the use of various methods for determining environmental geochemical changes in headwaters due to human transformation of the basin between 1994 and 2015. Ustia River experienced the highest anthropogenic impact during 1968–1994. Starting from 1968 and up to the present time the wastewater volume disposed to the river is more than 25 m3 per day. Despite the downturn in the national economy since the mid 90-ies of the 20th century, the negative impact on the environment of surface water area does not stop. The environmental evaluation of the bottom sediments of Ustia River was held basing on the results of spectral analysis of air-dried samples of silt fraction from the selected samples. The researcher analysed the content of heavy metals which emission takes place within the river basin as a result of runoff generated by chemical and woodworking industries, transport, wastewater and agricultural use of the territory, particularly Pb, Mn, Co, Cu, Zn and Cd. For the first time, researchers have figured out that for the past twenty years there has been no improvement in the overall ecological state of the Ustia River bottom sediments. The human impacts on the hydro-ecosystem, assessed according to the content of heavy metals, have moderated only in the river section near the headstream. The author views this fact as a consequence of reduced chemicals’ usage (i.e. fertilizers, pesticides, compost, sewage and animal waste) on the cultivated land in this part of the basin. The remaining sections of riverbed have experienced deterioration of the bottom sediments; it is particularly notable with regard to the content of such elements as Mn, Cu, Zn and Pb within the urban areas. The increase of the concentrations of metals in the sediments near Basiv Kut Dam Lake in 2015, compared with the relevant data for 1994, can serve as the evidence that the negative impact on hydro-ecosystem has intensified. In both observation periods the bottom sediments of the upper part of the river has demonstrated extremely high content of Mn. Hence, in 1994 it markedly declined in the central section of the stream, and in 2015 it appeared in significant concentrations in the sediments along the channel. It is obvious that in this case there are geochemical features of the basin; however the situation in 2015 indicates a change in the state of bottom sediments with regard to the content of Mn under the influence of anthropogenic factors. The analysis of the geochemical changes in bottom sediments of Ustia headwater from 1994 until 2015 show that the concentrations of such elements as Cu, Zn, Pb, Co and Cd in the bottom sediments according to 2015 data turned out to be higher compared to 1994, excluding the upper part of the river. Nevertheless the geochemical anomalies of Mn contents noticed along the channel are also the case in this situation. The level of anthropogenic impact, measured in terms of total pollution index for the concentration of heavy metals in bottom sediments in both observation periods appeared to be «weak» or «slightly increased» if there were toxic elements. Hence, if in 1994 there was a high risk of pollution of bottom sediments with such elements as zinc, lead and copper both in case of the relative background values and hygiene criteria (maximum allowable concentrations in soil), in 2015 cobalt also appeared among such elements. The level of contamination of sediments according to international contamination classes mainly shows «significant» and «increased» impact on different parts of the river for the Mn content (5–6 grades) in both observation periods; the Cu and Zn content vary from «low» to «moderate» in 1994 (1–3 grades) and from «low» to «substantial» in 2015 (2–4 grades); the Pb content is «poor» (grade 1) in 1994 and «moderate» in 2015; Co and Cd content describes human impact on hydro-ecosystem as «weak» in both periods (0–1 grades). The assessment methods used by the researcher allowed tracking various aspects of heavy metal pollution in the bottom sediments. Furthermore, they help discovering that nowadays the sediments of Ustia River play the role of anthropogeny outcome battery against the geochemical anomalies of individual elements.

Abstract:
Zusammenfassung Die vielseitigen Funktionen von Moorlandschaften sind in kulturhistorischer und klimatischer Hinsicht von immer größer werdendem Interesse. Da Moore über lange Zeiträume anthropogene Zeugnisse konservieren und als Kohlenstoffsenke gelten, gilt es einen umfangreichen Schutz dieser Ökosysteme zu etablieren, um diese Funktionen aufrechtzuerhalten. In dieser Untersuchung wurden Informationen von über 140 Moorstandorten aus Schleswig-Holstein zusammengetragen und ausgewertet, anhand einer einheitlichen Bewertungsmatrix evaluiert und nach Güteklassen (A–D) kategorisiert. Als Grundlage der Güteklassen wurden Bewertungskriterien gewählt, welche durch ein Punktesystem (1–5) definiert sind. Die Bewertungskriterien gliedern sich in drei Hauptkategorien: „kulturelle Bedeutung“, „ökologische Bedeutung“ und „bodenkundliche/geologische Bedeutung“. Die Auswertung ergab, dass 15 % der ausgewerteten Moorstandorte als „konkrete Archivböden“ angesprochen werden können. Diese erfüllen ökologische Anforderungen in einem hohen Maße und erreichen somit eine Punktzahl von > 4, weshalb sie in die höchste Güteklasse „A“ fallen. Aufgrund unzureichender Dokumentation oder sichtbaren anthropogenen Einflüssen werden 46 % der Archivböden der Güteklasse „B“ zugeordnet und gelten als „potenzielle Archivböden“. Der Güteklasse „C“ werden 23 % der Moore zugeordnet und gelten ebenfalls als „potenzielle Archivböden“ und befinden sich in einem stark anthropogen geprägten Zustand, welcher kosten- und zeitintensive Renaturierungsmaßnahmen zur Folge hätte. In die niedrigste Güteklasse „D“ fallen 16 % der bewerteten Moore. Diese unterliegen einer irreversiblen Degradation und sind nicht mehr / kaum als Archivböden anzusprechen. Mit der ausgearbeiteten Bewertungsmatrix wird letztendlich eine flächendeckende Evaluierung und Kategorisierung der Moorstandorte in Schleswig-Holstein angestrebt, um den Erhalt dieser Ökosysteme langfristig sichern zu können.

Abstract:
Are we cyborgs or humans? This question is at the heart of this investigation, and the implications of it are all around us. In Christian theology, humans are seen as uniquely made in the image of God (imago dei). This has been taken to mean various things, but broadly, it suggests an understanding of humans as somehow discrete from, and elevated above, other creatures in how they resemble God. Cyborgs mark a provocative attempt to challenge such notions, especially in the work of Donna Haraway, whose influential ‘Cyborg Manifesto’ (1991) elaborated a way of understanding cyborgs as figures for the way we live our lives not as discrete or elevated, but as deeply hybridised and involved in complex ways with technologies, as well as with other beings. Significantly, Haraway uses the cyborg to critique notions of the human rooted in theological anthropology and anthropogeny: the cyborg was not created in Eden. This assertion is the starting point of my investigation of cyborgs and humans in theological anthropology. Analysis of this position is broken down into three key concepts throughout the investigation that form the three main parts of the structure: (1) What is the significance of Eden, specifically as a point of origin? What ideas do we inherit from Genesis mythologies, and how do they influence our multitudinous understandings of not only humans, but also cyborgs, that range from the Terminator, to astronauts, to hospital patients? What does it mean to say that the cyborg cannot recognise Eden or even dream of the possibility of return?(2) If the cyborg was not created in Eden, then is it still to be considered as creaturely? How does this figure tessellate into, or challenge, notions of human nature and sin in the absence of an origin or teleology in a Garden? What commentaries of the human as created in God’s image can we compare this to, and how do all of these readings bear on how we see ourselves and technologies? (3) More constructively, given that the cyborg amalgamates the organic and the mechanic, and discusses hybridity, how might this be appropriated by theological anthropology? What does it mean to say that we are hybrids? From these questions, I reflect on tensions between the cyborg and the human, and make suggestions for a theological appropriation of the cyborg figure that takes heed of the emphasis on hybridity by applying it to notions of Eden and imago dei. The overarching aim is to decentre and destabilise the human, and to refigure it within its broader networks that are inclusive of other creatures, technologies, and God.

Abstract:
Nachhaltige Landbewirtschaftung impliziert ausgeglichene Pflanzennährstoffflüsse ohne die Abhängigkeit von Düngern aus nicht erneuerbaren Quellen. Stickstoff, Phosphor und Kalium aus der menschlichen Nahrung werden in Mitteleuropa im Allgemeinen in Schwemmkanalisationen gesammelt und dabei mit Schadstoffen vermengt. Neuartige stoffstromtrennende Sanitärsysteme ermöglichen die Bereitstellung von Humanurin und Fäkalien zur Verwendung als Düngemittel. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden praxisrelevante Aspekte der Verwendung von Düngemitteln anthropogener Herkunft untersucht. Die in Gefäß- und Feldversuchen in Berlin Dahlem ermittelte Ertragswirkung zeigte, dass Urin in dieser Hinsicht äquivalenten Mineraldüngern grundsätzlich gleichwertig ist. Bei sehr hohen Konzentrationen kam es abhängig von der Pflanzenart zu Depressionseffekten, welche vermutlich auf den Salz- und Ammoniumgehalt von Urin zurückzuführen sind. Unter Freilandbedingungen traten diese Effekte nicht auf. Bodenbiologische Auswirkungen von Düngerapplikationen sind entscheidend für die Abschätzung ihrer langfristigen Bodenfruchtbarkeitserhaltung. Sowohl in Labor-versuchen als auch im Freiland zeigten sich Regenwürmer durch menschlichen Urin aus Trenntoiletten deutlich beeinträchtigt. Die Ursache der Schädigung konnte nicht geklärt werden. Von einer langfristigen bodenfruchtbarkeitsreduzierenden Beein-trächtigung wird jedoch nicht ausgegangen. Mikrobielle Enzymaktivitäten im Boden wurden im Freiland durch Urinapplikation nicht beeinflusst. Für die Praxis wird empfohlen Urin während der Ausbringung einzuarbeiten, da die Tiere dann weniger mit der Flüssigkeit in Kontakt kommen. Da es ein umweltpolitisches Ziel ist, die Ammoniakemissionen der Landwirtschaft zu minimieren, wurden diese nach der Urinausbringung im Freiland gemessen. Auf Grund der sehr geringen Trockensubstanzgehalte von Humanurin emittierte deutlich weniger NH3 als üblicherweise nach Ausbringung von Schweine- oder Rindergülle. Verbraucherumfragen bestätigten eine hohe Bereitschaft pflanzliche Nahrung, welche mit Urin als Dünger erzeugt wurde, zu kaufen und zu verzehren. Praktizierende Landwirte reagierten dagegen deutlich reservierter. Die Ausbringung von Urin aus Trenntoiletten kann im Sinne einer nachhaltigen Landwirtschaft grundsätzlich empfohlen werden. Es besteht aber weiterer Forschungsbedarf.
Sustainable agriculture implies balanced nutrient flows and independence from fertiliser made from non renewable resources. In Europe, plant nutrients excreted by humans are commonly collected in water borne sewage systems and thus mixed with potentially harmful substances. Novel segregating sanitation techniques can collect separated urine and faeces in a form which enables their use as fertiliser. In the presented thesis selected aspects concerning the use of anthropogenic plant nutrients relevant to farming were investigated. Pot and field experiments indicated that equal yields can be gained if urine instead of mineral fertiliser is applied. Very high concentrations of urine led to reduced growth, presumably caused by the presence of ammonium or salt. However, this was not found under field conditions. Soil biological effects caused by the application of a fertiliser must be considered when assessing its long term contribution to soil fertility. Laboratory experiments as well as field investigations showed that human urine application severely affects earthworms, however, the harmful components were not identified. The results suggest that the effect is of short term only. Soil microbial enzyme activities were not influenced by urine fertiliser. For farming practice it is recommended to inject or incorporate urine to prevent earthworms from coming into direct contact with the infiltrating fertiliser. Gaseous ammonia loss was measured after urine application on fields as reducing harmful emissions from agriculture is a goal of European environmental policy. Because of the very low Dry Matter contents of urine, far less ammonia was emitted to the atmosphere than usually occurs after application of cattle or pig slurry. A consumer acceptance study showed a general high public willingness to accept urine as fertiliser even if used on crops for food production. The reaction of farmers was mainly reserved as a result of the present legal regulations in Germany. Within the context of sustainable agriculture the use of human urine as fertiliser can be recommended. Further research is necessary, especially concerning any effects resulting from residues of pharmaceutical substances contained in human excreta.

In the Age of the Anthropocene, human activities have greatly altered and transformed all aspects of the geological environment, typically extracting what is considered valuable and leaving behind degraded landscapes. Often existing in between the city and wilderness nature, these landscapes are largely forgotten and assumed to always have been like that. How can we re-engage with these landscapes and can they become a meaningful part of our culture? A prime example is Owens Lake in eastern California. It has a rich history: earliest agricultural domestication, silver and salt mining, death by a greedy neighbor far south, worst particulate matter pollution, and a surprising resurrection. Starting in the early 2000s, Owens Lake was carved up into 'cells' and a new infrastructure of pipes, roads, sensors, and dust monitoring equipment was overlaid. Each cell was re-tilled, re-watered, re-planted, or re-paved, resulting in a strange yet fascinating ecology where multiple "natures" (wild, artificial, and reconstructed) co-exist uncannily. As state-owned land, public engagement was a required part of the dust mitigation efforts. Architecture, an important contributor to anthropogenic change, offers the opportunity to re-engage with the site. Stan Allen writes that "any work of architecture is (first) a transformation of the landscape." [1] Inevitably, architecture sits on and interacts with land, is composed of materials extracted from the land, and most importantly, reorders the landscape through artificial constructs. Here, a network of architectural interventions draw people, whether casual passerby, adventure seekers, or scientific researchers, to key areas around Owens Lake to discover the human and non-human dynamics that shape this particular place and whose presence re-shape the landscape they are situated in.

Abstract:
Coastal anthropogenic infrastructure has significantly modified nearshore environments. Because these structures often have a strong association with shipping as would be found in ports and harbors, they have been identified as invasion hotspots. Due to propagule pressure from shipping and recreational boating and suitable uncolonized substrate that provides a refuge from native predators, a greater number of non-native species have been found on these structures compared to nearby natural substrate. The mechanisms that limit the spread of non-native species from anthropogenic structures to natural substrate have been explored for several taxa at a species-specific level, but less so from an overall community perspective. Predation has been identified as one of the biotic interactions limiting invasion success. In addition to predation, dispersal ability may also prevent the spread of non-native species from anthropogenic structures to natural substrate. This thesis addresses how these two mechanisms interact to limit the spread of non-native species from anthropogenic structures to natural substrate and how that alters overall community composition. I aimed to explore differences between communities inside and outside of a marina and determine the extent to which predator and dispersal limitation were structuring these communities. I used a three-factor design, deploying seven unglazed ceramic tiles per each treatment combination of 1) inside versus outside a marina in Yaquina Bay, Oregon; 2) cage keeping out predators greater than the mesh size, no cage, or partial cage; 3) fixed near the substrata (benthic) versus suspended 1 meter below the surface. I also transplanted caged, suspended tiles of either adults or recruits from inside the marina to benthic and suspended caging treatments outside of the marina. These tiles allowed me to examine predation when dispersal limitation was not a factor for the community inside the marina, i.e. what happens to both recruits and adults if they can get outside of the marina. I found that the communities inside and outside of the marina were different and the data suggest that both predation and dispersal limitation interact to limit the spread of non-native species. Additionally, I found that mesopredators that could fit through the caging may be influencing predation results and community structure. This research addresses gaps in scientific knowledge regarding the mechanisms that prevent or facilitate the spread of non-native species. Future work could include the further exploration of mesopredation as an important factor in limiting the spread of non-native species and exploring dispersal limitation more in depth as well as broadening the geographic scope to see if the same trends hold true across bays and bioregions.

Abstract:
Gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar: Linnaeus) is a polyphagous non-native forest pest first introduced to Medford, Massachusetts in 1869. It has since spread as far south as North Carolina and as far west as Wisconsin. Gypsy moth is responsible for defoliating approximately 100,000 hectares of forest annually, resulting in mortality in a small percentage of trees, averting behavior by recreators, and creating a nuisance to the general public. Limiting the spread of gypsy moth is beneficial because it delays the onset of costs and losses associated with quarantine, tree defoliation and mortality, and nuisance. Gypsy moth is believed to disperse naturally up to 2.5 km/yr (e.g. early instar ballooning) but has been observed to disperse much greater distances. The scientific consensus is that this longer distance dispersal occurs through anthropogenic vectors (e.g. egg masses being transported on firewood). Despite the resources that United States Department of Agriculture and state agencies dedicate to eliminating and managing new infestations resulting from long distance dispersal, there has been limited empirical research on the relationship between the dispersal of gypsy moth and the movement of people and their goods. This thesis develops a conceptual framework of the anthropogenic factors that could affect dispersal, measures these factors with secondary data at the county level from a variety of sources, and estimates the presence or absence of gypsy moth using logistic regression models. The dependent variable is drawn from trap catch records archived by the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service program, Slow-the-Spread, in areas distal to the 1 moth/trap line between 1999 and 2007. Through step-wise logistic regression estimating sub-models that include variables representing each broad anthropogenic factor, a final empirical model is specified. The variables of the model are estimated independently for each year from 1999 to 2007, resulting in a mean Pseudo R square of 0.568. Consistently significant ( ) anthropogenic variables are the number of households using wood for heating fuel and mean household income. These findings are discussed with regard to invasion theory and quarantine policy. One key implication is the continual importance of regulating and raising awareness about the risk of moving firewood from infested to uninfested zones.

Abstract:
This work is intended to systematically study an inventory of the anthropogenic heat produced. This research strives to present a better estimate of the energy generated by humans and human activities, and compare this estimate to the significant energy quantity with respect to climate change. Because the Top of Atmosphere (TOA) net energy flux was found to be 0.85±0.15 W/m2 the planet is out of energy balance, as studied by the group from NASA in 2005. The Earth is estimated to gain 431 TW from this energy imbalance. This number is the significant heat quantity to consider when studying global climate change, and not the 78,300 TW, the absorbed part of the primary solar radiation reaching the Earth’s surface, as commonly cited and used at present in the literature. Based on energy supplied to the boilers (in the Rankine cycle) of at least 13 TW, body energy dissipated by 7 billion people and their domestic animals, the value of the total world anthropogenic heat production rate is 15.26 TW or 3.5% of the energy gain by the Earth. Based on world energy consumption and the energy dissipated by 7 billion people and their domestic animals, the value of the total world anthropogenic heat production rate is 19.7 TW or about 5% of the energy gain by the Earth. These numbers are significantly different from 13 TW. More importantly, the figures are 3.5 to 5% of the net energy gained by the Earth, and hence significant. The quantity is not 0.017% of the absorbed part of the main solar radiation reaching the Earth’s surface and negligible.
