Abstract:
After the decision of the Constitutional Court Number 35/PUU-X/2012 which stated that customary forests are not part of state forests but private forests provide legal certainty and protection of the rights of indigenous peoples in managing customary forests. As a follow-up to this decision, the Ministry of Environment and Forestry established Minister of Environment and Forestry Regulation P.32/Menlhk-Setjen/2015 concerning Private Forests which has been renewed through Minister of Environment and Forestry No.9 of 2021 concerning Management of Social Forestry. Until now, the number of customary forests that have been determined is 107 customary forest units. One of the factors supporting the increase in the number of customary forests is a change in the internal legal culture of the LHK when verifying and validating customary forest applications. Based on the results of the research, facts and problems were found, one of which was related to the requirements for recognition of legal subjects for groups holding rights through regional legal products which could be in the form of Regional Regulations (PERDA). The PERDA contains the Recognition and Protection of Indigenous Peoples and the areas managed by these communities. Some PERDAs are not included with maps of customary territories or there are no other regional legal products that define the boundaries of the community's managed areas. In addition to the problems of legal subjects and areas of management, changes in the legal culture within a government institution also have an influence on the process of recognizing these rights. This writing uses an empirical legal research approach by examining the roles of the legal culture of the Ministry of Environment and Forestry in determining customary forests

Abstract:
This study examines the implications of land registration after the release of forest areas in the Batu Lapisi neighborhood in Malino Village, Tinggi Moncong District, Gowa Regency. The research conducted is empirical research. Empirical research examines law in action. Thus, the empirical world is das sein (what is the reality. Data analysis is descriptive by providing an overview of what should be done about these legal problems. The results show that the implementation of land registration which is claimed as a forest area in the Batu lapisi Dalam environment) Kelurahan Malino was implemented based on the recognition of old rights in the form of Ipeda evidence in 1976, then the National Agrarian Operations Project program in 1991 and finally the release of forest areas based on the Decree of the Minister of Environment and Forestry No. 362 / MENLHK / SETJEN / PLA.0/ 5 / 2019 with the method of land registration for the first time sporadically. Implications of land registration after area release is carried out under the authority of the Ministry of Environment and Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia which issues land parcels based on the Spatial Review scheme of conservation forest areas by issuing them a Decree of the Minister of Environment and Forestry No.362/MENLHK/SETJEN/PLA.0/ 5/2019, then the minister determines the people who receive the Blue SK as the basis for registering land rights. After that, the Gowa Regency BPN carried out the administrative process of sporadic land registration based on the Blue Decree from the Minister of Environment and Forestry as well as evidence of physical control from the lurah or village head. If the land to be registered borders a forest area, a clarification or recommendation must be requested from the Regional 7 Makassar Forest Area Consolidation Center (BPKH).

Abstract:
Forests in Indonesia are a vital ecosystem, covering 64% of the country�s total land area, according to data from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (LHK) released in 2020. Forests serve not only as a source of livelihood but also as a place for meeting the needs of communities, including customary law community (MHA) that have long controlled and utilized forest land prior to the establishment of the nation. One example of a land control conflict in forest areas by MHA occurs in Nagari Simpang Utara. The MHA, led by Datuk Putiah, claims the forest area as ulayat land under Minangkabau customary law. The government, through the Ministry of LHK, has designated this area as state forest land according to Law No. 41 of 1999 on Forestry, reinforced by Minister of Forestry Decree No. 35/Menhut-11/2013. This study aims to identify the dynamics of land control by MHA and find conflict resolution solutions in accordance with applicable regulations. The research method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. The findings indicate that the recognition and existence of MHA often conflict with government policies, causing friction between indigenous communities and state authorities. In this regard, conflict resolution efforts must consider both sides to achieve a fair and sustainable solution.

Abstract:
In Bayan Village, West Nusa Tenggara, there are four customary forest areas that have the potential to be developed through the Customary Forest scheme. This scheme is part of the Social Forestry Program which provides access and forest management rights to indigenous communities. The four forests are currently being managed by the indigenous peoples but have not yet been granted the status of customary forest. The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential of the Bayan indigenous community to acquire forest management rights under the Customary Forest scheme. The research employed a normative-empirical approach. The results indicate that the Bayan indigenous peoples meets all the criteria in the Government Regulation No. 23 of 2021 on the Implementation of Forestry and the Ministry of Environment and Forestry Regulation No. 9 of 2021 on Social Forestry Management. The Bayan indigenous peoples is eligible to be designated as a Customary Law Community by the Regent of North Lombok and to obtain Customary Forest management rights from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry. This potential is supported by two factors: (1) the potential for forest and tourism development; and (2) the potential for well-maintained local wisdom.

Abstract:
Land disputes involving protected forests and conservation areas have consistently emerged as issues stemming from land utilization by local communities. The Ministry of Environment and Forestry plays a fundamental role in addressing these conflicts by altering the status of protected forests into production forests. Accordingly, the study aims to analyze the regulatory framework governing the conversion and to evaluate the effectiveness of the authority, local governments and the Ministry of Environment and Forestry in facilitating the status change. The research employs a descriptive normative legal approach, drawing on empirical data from surveys, interviews with pertinent parties, and field observations in Majalengka Regency, particularly in Nunuk Village (currently Nunuk Baru Village). The research reveals that regulations and the effectiveness of both local government and ministry policies govern the transformation and use of protected forests into production forests. Government Regulation No. 104 of 2015; the Procedures for Changing Forest Area Designation and Function, is a binding regulation that directly addresses the issues. As a result, the residents of Nunuk Village had no grounds to oppose the change. The effective implementation led to the resolution of the land dispute in Nunuk Baru Village, Maja District, Majalengka Regency, between the local community and Perhutani. The residents' struggle to assert their land rights was ultimately victorious, as the Majalengka local government collaborated with the central government to expedite the resolution of the critical issue. In conclusion, the government must prioritize designating production land that can be effectively and sustainably managed by local communities

Abstract:
Environmental damage due to tin mining that is not accompanied by environmental preservation in Juru Seberang Village, Belitung Regency, which causes loss of biodiversity and increases the vulnerability of coastal residents requires a strategy to strengthen Ecological Citizenship through rehabilitating forests and ex-tin mine forests and land, namely, by conducting socialization to the community in achieving the strategy of strengthening ecological citizenship. The results show that there are several inhibiting factors and supporting factors in the process of achieving strategies for strengthening Ecological Citizenship through the HKm group. Among these factors, the amount of assistance from various parties such as the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP), Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), Peat and Mangrove Restoration Agency (BRGM), Regional Development Planning Agency, CSAR, BUMN, and so on is the most important factor. The community of the community has a strong belief in the community to always protect the environment and care more about the environment, and the community is the main source of support for the management of marine protected areas.

Abstract:
There is an increasing awareness that indigenous communities hold a key role in sustainable forest management in Indonesia. However, this awareness did not necessarily come with sufficient legal acknowledgement of the rights of indigenous people to have autonomy over customary forest. This research aims to fill this gap through an understanding of the socio-political development that led to the policy institutionalization of the customary forest. The findings show that discourses on indigeneity, human rights, agrarian reform, social justice, and sustainability advocated by a coalition of Civil Society Organization (CSOs), dominated the political arrangements of both policies. The exchange of resources such as expertise, network, and participatory mapping among the CSOs helped to overshadow the counternarrative of competing policy actors. This thesis contends that a mature discourse coalition was a major factor that empowered the CSOs to advocate their discourses and to convince other actors to support legal recognition of customary forests. Furthermore, several political conjunctures also paved ways for an enabling environment for policy institutionalizations of customary forests. These political conjunctures include such as land reform activism, agrarian constitutionalism, REDD+, AMAN’s endorsement on Jokowi, and the merge of the Ministry of Forestry and Ministry of Environment.

Bureaucratic reform Determination of laws and regulations with the aim that a more orderly, non-overlapping, and conducive agreement. Environmental regulation, governance and governance of forest natural resources consists of one factor that needs attention, because the exploitation of wood using machine technology will produce in a relatively short time. At the level of existing legal instruments overlapping authorities are also not in harmony with regulations because at the ministerial level related to legal products that do not provide space for customary law communities governing customary forests More are responsible for instruments made unilaterally by realizing indigenous peoples to register his right to the ministry, even though the customary community living in his environment asked him not to trust his customary rights because customary rights had existed since before they were issued not announced but carried out naturally by generations. Legal instruments that are not participatory against indigenous peoples will result in customary forest management systems that are not well organized, so that the community will be provoked by community needs in this case primary industrial timber entrepreneurs who receive timber forest products from indigenous peoples will be exploited using unsupported responsibilities The impact of disharmony regulations on the collection of timber forest products at the central and regional levels is not responsible for the community to utilize their own customary forests and the environment and forests will increase shrinkage and carrying capacity of the world's lungs is not optimal.

Abstract:
Food estate development is a response to President Joko Widodo's 2020 warning of a crisis during the pandemic period to meet domestic food needs. The Ministry of Environment and Forestry issued Minister of Environment and Forestry Regulation No.24/2020 concerning the Provision of Forest Areas for Food Estate Development through the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, this regulation was later revoked and replaced by Permen LHK No.7 of 2021. The findings indicate that the food estate development policy conflicts with the principles of ecological justice, which advocate for harmonious coexistence between humans and nature. The food estate concept itself refers to the integrated development of food production, encompassing agriculture, plantations, and livestock over vast tracts of land. The perspective of the ecological justice theory approach suggests that forests need to be preserved not only because humans still need forests to meet their needs, but it is appropriate because humans are actually only one of the elements of the earth's large and complex ecosystem, and as humans who have morals need to respect the rights of non-human beings to coexist in harmony. Therefore, the existing set of regulations must consider the rights of other natural creatures including animals, forests, seas, mountains and other elements of the biospher.

Abstract:
Over the last 20 years, Lyme disease has grown to become the most common vector-borne disease affecting Americans. Spread in the eastern U.S. primarily by the bite of Ixodes scapularis, the black-legged tick, the disease affects an estimated 329,000 Americans per year. Originally confined to New England, it has since spread across much of the east coast and has become endemic in Virginia. Since 2010 the state has averaged 1200 cases per year, with 200 annually in the New River Health District (NRHD), the location of our study. Efforts to geographically model Lyme disease primarily focus on landscape and climatic variables. The disease depends highly on the survival of the tick vector, and white-footed mouse, the primary reservoir. Both depend on the existence of forest-herbaceous edge-habitats, as well as warm summer temperatures, mild winter lows, and summer wetness. While many studies have investigated the effect of forest fragmentation on Lyme, none have made use of high-resolution land cover data to do so at the peridomestic level. To fill this knowledge gap, we made use of the Virginia Geographic Information Network’s 1-meter land cover dataset and identified forest-herbaceous edge-habitats for the NRHD. We then calculated the density of these edge-habitats at 100, 200 and 300-meter radii, representing the peridomestic environment. We also calculated the density of <2-hectare forest patches at the same distance thresholds. To avoid confounding from climatic variation, we also calculated mean summer temperatures, total summer rainfall, and number of consecutive days below freezing of the prior winters. Adding to these data, elevation, terrain shape index, slope, and aspect, and including lags on each of our climatic variables, we created environmental niche models of Lyme in the NRHD. We did so using both Boosted Regression Trees (BRT) and Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) modeling, the two most common niche modeling algorithms in the field today. We found that Lyme is strongly associated with higher density of developed-herbaceous edges within 100-meters from the home. Forest patch density was also significant at both 100-meter and 300-meter levels. This supports the notion that the fine scale peridomestic environment is significant to Lyme outcomes, and must be considered even if one were to account for fragmentation at a wider scale, as well as variations in climate and terrain.<br>M.S.<br>Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in the United States today. Infecting about 330,000 Americans per year, the disease continues to spread geographically. Originally found only in New England, the disease is now common in Virginia. The New River Health District, where we did our study, sees over 200 cases per year. Lyme disease is mostly spread by the bite of the black-legged tick. As such we can predict where Lyme cases might be found if we understand the environmental needs of these ticks. The ticks themselves depend on warm summer temperatures, mild winter lows, and summer wetness. But they are also affected by forest fragmentation which drives up the population of white-footed mice, the tick’s primary host. The mice are particularly fond of the interface between forests and open fields. These edge habitats provide food and cover for the mice, and in turn support a large population of ticks. Many existing studies have demonstrated this link, but all have done so across broad scales such as counties or census tracts. To our knowledge, no such studies have investigated forest fragmentation near the home of known Lyme cases. To fill this gap in our knowledge, we made use of high-resolution forest cover data to identify forest-field edge habitats and small isolated forest patches. We then calculated the total density of both within 100, 200 and 300 meters of the homes of known Lyme cases, and compared these to values from non-cases using statistical modeling. We also included winter and summer temperatures, rainfall, elevation, slope, aspect, and terrain shape. We found that a large amount of forest-field edges within 100 meters of a home increases the risk of Lyme disease to residents of that home. The same can be said for isolated forest patches. Even after accounting for all other variables, this effect was still significant. This information can be used by health departments to predict which neighborhoods may be most at risk for Lyme. They can then increase surveillance in those areas, warn local doctors, or send out educational materials.

Thank you.<br>Soft-tissue decomposition is an important part of forensic investigation, because it helps establish time since death. Decomposition processes are influenced by a variety of factors, which vary with environmental context. It is important, therefore, to examine decomposition processes in ecologically distinct regions. Previous studies have been conducted in the Southwest, Texas, Tennessee, Canada and Europe, but none so far in the forested environment of the American Pacific Northwest. The goal of this study was to establish a soft-tissue decomposition baseline for the Pacific Northwest summer regional climate. This study documented physical processes of decomposition as well as environmental factors, specifically with respect to ambient temperature. Results exhibited a high degree of correlation with data from other entomological studies conducted in the region. Specific events were discussed in reference to the unique environmental conditions of the Pacific Northwest and their effect on the pattem and rate of the postmortem soft-tissue decomposition processes.

Abstract:
A forest harvester operator is today facing a stressful work environment with a high demand on coordination skills and effectiveness to run the operation with positive economical outcome. The learning phase is very long compared to similar work.The vision for this project was to transform the machine, through intuitive and innovative interface design, into an extension of the operator’s body. In this way it provides higher productivity as well as user friendliness, shorter learning phase and a healthier work situation.This was realized through the use of prior but yet not market available related research. Through market studies, applicable technology already available in other industries was found. The result is a complete seat with controls for a conceptual Gremo harvester realizable in the year 2023.

Abstract:
Linking environmental variation to population dynamics is necessary to understand and predict how the environment influences species abundances and distributions. I used demographic, environmental and trait data of forest herbs to study effects of spatial variation in environmental factors on populations as well as environmental change in terms of effects of forest succession on field layer plants. The results show that abundances of field layer species during forest succession are correlated with their functional traits; species with high specific leaf area increased more in abundance. I also found that soil nutrients affect vegetative and flowering phenology of the forest herb Actaea spicata. The effect of nutrients shows that a wider range of environmental factors than usually assumed can influence plant phenology. Moreover, local environmental factors affected also the demography of A. spicata through effects on vital rates. An abiotic factor, soil potassium affecting individual growth rate, was more important for population growth rate than seed predation, the most conspicuous biotic interaction in this system. Density independent changes in soil potassium during forest succession, and to a lesser extent plant population size dependent seed predation, were predicted to alter population growth rate, and thereby the abundance, of A. spicata over time. Because these environmental factors had effects on population projections, they can potentially influence the occupancy pattern of this species along successional gradients. I conclude that including deterministic, as opposed to stochastic, environmental change in demographic models enables assessments of the effects of processes such as succession, altered land-use, and climate change on population dynamics. Models explicitly incorporating environmental factors are useful for studying population dynamics in a realistic context, and to guide management of threatened species in changing environments.

Abstract:
AbstractThe use of biomass and biofuels, such as wood, charcoal, petroleum, kerosene, and gas, is becoming competitive based on the level of development of each nation.

Abstract:
AbstractThe use of biomass and biofuels, such as wood, charcoal, petroleum, kerosene, and gas, is becoming competitive based on the level of development of each nation. However, charcoal production (CP) and marketing now tends to be a major business among many households in both rural and urban communities with no consideration of its effects on climate change adaptation. While the research question considers the various definition of climate change adaptation, and the importance of charcoal production in Nigeria, the manuscript speaks mainly of the problems of charcoal production, the lack of planning to address these problems, and the lack of planning to move the communities away from this practice and out of poverty. It addresses the impacts of charcoal production on agriculture, such as lack or loss of labor and destruction of arable lands. The paper discusses the effect of charcoal production on health.

Full text
Abstract:
We review how national post-Independence policy supporting Community-Based Natural Resources Management (CBNRM) has played out in Etosha-Kunene, highlighting a new impetus towards a “landscape approach” for conservation in communal areas. Communal land immediately to the west of Etosha National Park is currently divided into a series of communal area conservancies, inhabited by pastoralist populations relying additionally on varying combinations of horticulture, gathering and hunting. A new donor-funding trend is now noticeable towards recognising how landscapes with conservation and livelihood value overlap these areas. In the 2000s a Kunene People’s Park was proposed to connect the Hobatere, Etendeka and Palmwag Tourism Concessions between Etosha Pan and the Skeleton Coast, although this was never formalised. In 2018 proposals for a ‘People’s Park’ were reignited with international support by conservation donors and the British royal family. Present proposals for an Ombonde People’s Park/Landscape currently comprised primarily of two conservancies on the western boundary of Etosha National Park are being implemented by the Ministry of Environment, Forestry and Tourism with support by multiple donors. We provide an overview of conservation changes in Etosha-Kunene for the three decades since Namibia’s Independence in 1990.

Full text
Abstract:
AbstractIsrael’s approach to defense AI is the result of an “organized mess,” triggered by Israel’s informal culture, the country’s tendency to let market forces push technology forward, a demanding security environment, and the need to be able to respond to new threats in a quick and flexible manner. Despite some challenges and shortcomings, such as an increasingly aggressive race for global AI dominance and limited resources, the country is still among the most advanced in the field of defense AI, relaying on the Israeli ecosystem’s distinctive advantage, born out of structural and organizational aspects. Mandatory and reserve services at the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) nurture and facilitate a unique exchange of personnel and knowledge. Moreover, IDF units indirectly support the AI ecosystem by supplying skilled personnel to academia and industry. Currently, there is no single Israeli body responsible for overseeing the field of defense AI. Nonetheless the Ministry of Defense (IMOD) and Israel Innovation Authority are shaping it by launching several key initiatives aimed at improving the necessary infrastructure and enabling further advancement in defense AI. Although Israel’s defense AI investment is challenging to quantify due to the lack of transparency regarding its defense budget, the significance of investing in AI has been recognized. Israel implements AI unmanned military systems in land, at sea, and in the air, air defense, cyber warfare, and logistics. Its prowess in AI for intelligence is evident in its diverse range of applications, which have contributed significantly to its military successes in recent operations, for example, against Hamas in Gaza. Overall, the growing role of AI has led to the need for additional training to all military personnel, especially commanding officers.

Full text
Abstract:
Flooding in the Latuppa Watershed almost always occurs when the rainy season arrives which is influenced by various factors. Starting from quite high rainfall, soil type, land use, to topographic conditions, slope, and river flow density. This study aims to determine the distribution zone of potential flood hazards at the research location using a Geographic Information System (GIS). The method used is Multi-Criteria Evaluation (MCE) analysis which combines Flood Hazard Index (FHI) related to GIS environment. This study also uses Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) in determining the weight of each flood parameter. Research data in the form of secondary data was taken through Indonesia Geospatial Data Portal of the Geospatial Information Agency and Watershed Management Information System data of the Ministry of Environment and Forestry. The results of the study were in the form of a flood hazard map showing the distribution of potential flood locations. The location of high flood hazard occurs in almost all downstream parts of the Latuppa atershed which covers most of Wara Timur, Wara Selatan, Wara, Sendana and Mungkajang Districts with an area of 1847.31 ha (27.06%) with Ammasangan, Dangerakko and Lagaligo Districts dominating the most. Then, moderate vulnerability is evenly distributed in all urban villages with an area of 3199.54 ha (46.87%) and the low-level vulnerability class category has a distribution of 1779.23 ha (26.07%) which is dominated by forest land use. The results of this study are expected to be a reference in future research, and can be a literature study to take policies related to flood management in the Latuppa Watershed.

In Sriwijaya International Conference on Engineering and Technology 2023. Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2025. https://doi.org/10.4028/p-cads0d.

Full text
Abstract:
Constructed wetlands are intentionally created systems designed to emphasize specific characteristics of wetland ecosystems to improve landscape, retain stormwater, and enhance its quality. The application of this system has been widely used in several countries as this system is low-cost and sustainable. The treatment performance of constructed wetlands critically relies on the optimal operating parameters, including hydraulic retention time. This prompted the implementation of this study to analyze the effectiveness of retention time variation on constructed wetland performance for domestic wastewater treatment plant. The design of the constructed wetland in this research uses Free Water Surface (FWS) or Surface Flow (SF) system using sand, gravel, and water hyacinth. Domestic wastewater from a local restaurant was used as the sample for this research. The initial kitchen wastewater concentration from the restaurant does not meet the effluent standard by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry Regulation No.68/2016. Data analysis shows a significant decrease in all pollutant parameters after 24 hours of retention time. The initial condition of BOD 1931 mg/L has been reduced to 25.12 mg/L with 98.69% efficiency. The initial condition of TSS 1200 mg/L has been reduced to 29 mg/L with 97.58% efficiency. The oil and grease concentration of 227.5 mg/L has been reduced to 1 mg/L with 99.5% efficiency. At the same time, the initial condition of COD 1356 mg/L has been reduced to 73.29 mg/L with 94.6% efficiency.

Abstract:
In recent years, thanks to the ongoing targeted program of prospecting and field investigation of lower Palaeolithic sites, as well as targeted laboratory research involving various aspects of the study of materials of these sites, a significant amount of new data on the early Stone Age in modern Ukraine has been accumulated. Coordination and realization of these works in the last decade was mainly carried out by the lower Palaeolithic expedition of the Institute of Archaeology of NAS of Ukraine with sporadic financial support of the Presidium of NASU, NffR of Ukraine and the Ministry of education and Science of Ukraine, as well as with active participation of representatives of a number of domestic and foreign scientific and museum centers, as well as local historians. Data obtained in the last few years are presented and the main regularities of geographical setting, chronology, morphological and technological characteristics of assemblages are discussed in aspects of behavioural technological patterns, models of colonization of terrain, and evaluation of anthropic pressure on natural environment. The lower Palaeolithic records demonstrate hominin presence in mountainous areas (Carpathians, Crimea) and in the Podolian and Donetsk Uplands, that is in West and east of the country in its east european segment. More early sites gravitate to seashore and mountainous areas, more late sites witness for steady, though not continuous colonization of forested environments of fringe areas of east european plain. Available geological, geomorphological, biostratigraphical data and pilot eSR dates allows defining of their age between 1.2 and 0.4 Myr sites correlate with few warm phases between MIS 35 and MIS 11 that means association with mainly forest environments. essential difficulties in lithic raw materials supply could be a reason for the rise of peculiar pattern of technological behaviour that involved mainly bipolar knapping and widely applied parting technology for shaping the working edges of tools. Typologically, industries are mostly characterised as belonging to Mode I, irrespective of their age. Some signs on the likely non-utilitarian behaviour of ancient hominins may also be discussed. The lower Paleolithic peopling pattern can be summarized as a multiple pioneering colonization of fringe areas of the east european plain during warm periods and depopulation during cold periods anthropic pressure on environment is minimal. The study was partly funded by the MES of Ukraine, project M-72/20192020.

The urban landscape assesment as an important element in the quality of life and the sustainable development of the city constitutes an incipient field of investigation from a new perspective that adds meanings and values. An analysis of the different methodological developments and national and international experiences in the assessment of these landscapes will highlight its importance as a strategic element to improve the quality of the city. It starts from the concept of assessment as a system where tangible and intangible values ​​are considered by the population and the experts. These include among other formal, economic, environmental, social, cultural issues (…) and the relationships between them. Consideration of the opinions of experts from different points of view such as urbanism and architecture but also environment, economy, geography, history, archeology, sociology, social assistance, etc. Together with the preferences expressed by the population regarding the spaces they inhabit on a daily basis and their aspirations, strengthen the sense of belonging and the identity of the place as key elements in the perception of the urban landscapes that allows to contribute new qualities, integration criteria and ​​contemporary values to any type of intervention. These are strategies and intervention procedures that start from the complexity of the city as a system and incorporate the perception that citizens have or will have of their immediate environment.

Abstract:
Urban forestry is a relatively new branch where such issues as planning, governance and management of urban forests play an important role considering spatial planning of urban or suburban territory. The aim of the article is to find out the extent to which urban forests are reflected in European and Latvian regulatory enactments and planning documents, as well as to define the main recommendations for further actions; therefore, the regulatory enactments and planning documents of the European Union and Latvia were studied. Research showed that urban forests do not have any specific regulatory and planning framework at a European or Latvian scale. The standards that apply to urban forests can be found in regulatory enactments applicable to forest management, environmental protection, preservation of biological diversity, protection zones, plant protection, etc. In both European and local strategies, the forest issues as such and the issues of urban forests in particular appear as general, indirect issues, usually as the matters of biodiversity preservation or environmental sustainability. At the scale of Latvian legislation (laws and regulations of the Cabinet of Ministers), forests are mentioned in general, except for certain forestry laws, where forests are the main subject, which contain some provisions that are also directly applicable to urban forests. Urban forests are not reflected in these documents; to some extent they only appear in the plans as forest protection zones around cities.

Full text
Abstract:
Forest and wildland fires are a natural part of ecosystems worldwide, but large fires in particular can cause societal, economic and ecological disruption. Fires are an important source of greenhouse gases and black carbon that can further amplify and accelerate climate change. In recent years, large forest fires in Sweden demonstrate that the issue should also be considered in other parts of Fennoscandia. This final report of the project “Forest fires in Fennoscandia under changing climate and forest cover (IBA ForestFires)” funded by the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland, synthesises current knowledge of the occurrence, monitoring, modelling and suppression of forest fires in Fennoscandia. The report also focuses on elaborating the role of forest fires as a source of black carbon (BC) emissions over the Arctic and discussing the importance of international collaboration in tackling forest fires. The report explains the factors regulating fire ignition, spread and intensity in Fennoscandian conditions. It highlights that the climate in Fennoscandia is characterised by large inter-annual variability, which is reflected in forest fire risk. Here, the majority of forest fires are caused by human activities such as careless handling of fire and ignitions related to forest harvesting. In addition to weather and climate, fuel characteristics in forests influence fire ignition, intensity and spread. In the report, long-term fire statistics are presented for Finland, Sweden and the Republic of Karelia. The statistics indicate that the amount of annually burnt forest has decreased in Fennoscandia. However, with the exception of recent large fires in Sweden, during the past 25 years the annually burnt area and number of fires have been fairly stable, which is mainly due to effective fire mitigation. Land surface models were used to investigate how climate change and forest management can influence forest fires in the future. The simulations were conducted using different regional climate models and greenhouse gas emission scenarios. Simulations, extending to 2100, indicate that forest fire risk is likely to increase over the coming decades. The report also highlights that globally, forest fires are a significant source of BC in the Arctic, having adverse health effects and further amplifying climate warming. However, simulations made using an atmospheric dispersion model indicate that the impact of forest fires in Fennoscandia on the environment and air quality is relatively minor and highly seasonal. Efficient forest fire mitigation requires the development of forest fire detection tools including satellites and drones, high spatial resolution modelling of fire risk and fire spreading that account for detailed terrain and weather information. Moreover, increasing the general preparedness and operational efficiency of firefighting is highly important. Forest fires are a large challenge requiring multidisciplinary research and close cooperation between the various administrative operators, e.g. rescue services, weather services, forest organisations and forest owners is required at both the national and international level.

Abstract:
The UK government’s Integrated Review of security, defence, development and foreign policy, published in March 2021 alongside a supporting defence command paper, set a new course for UK national security and highlighted opportunities for an innovative approach to international engagement activity. The Integrated Review focused principally on the state threats posed by China’s increasing power and by competitors – including Russia – armed with nuclear, conventional and hybrid capabilities. It also stressed the continuing risks to global security and resilience due to conflict and instability in weakened and failed states. These threats have the potential to increase poverty and inequality, violent extremism, climate degradation and the forced displacement of people, while presenting authoritarian competitors with opportunities to enhance their geopolitical influence. There are moral, security and economic motives to foster durable peace in conflict-prone and weakened regions through a peacebuilding approach that promotes good governance, addresses the root causes of conflict and prevents violence, while denying opportunities to state competitors. The recent withdrawal from Afghanistan serves to emphasize the complexities and potential pitfalls associated with intervention operations in complex, unstable regions. Success in the future will require the full, sustained and coordinated integration of national, allied and regional levers of power underpinned by a sophisticated understanding of the operating environment. The UK armed forces, with their considerable resources and global network, will contribute to this effort through ‘persistent engagement’. This is a new approach to overseas operations below the threshold of conflict, designed as a pre-emptive complement to warfighting. To achieve this, the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) must develop a capability that can operate effectively in weak, unstable and complex regions prone to violent conflict and crises, not least in the regions on the eastern and southern flanks of the Euro-Atlantic area. The first step must be the development of a cohort of military personnel with enhanced, tailored levels of knowledge, skills and experience. Engagement roles must be filled by operators with specialist knowledge, skills and experience forged beyond the mainstream discipline of combat and warfighting. Only then will individuals develop a genuinely sophisticated understanding of complex, politically driven and sensitive operating environments and be able to infuse the design and delivery of international activities with practical wisdom and insight. Engagement personnel need to be equipped with: An inherent understanding of the human and political dimensions of conflict, the underlying drivers such as inequality and scarcity, and the exacerbating factors such as climate change and migration; - A grounding in social sciences and conflict modelling in order to understand complex human terrain; - Regional expertise enabled by language skills, cultural intelligence and human networks; - Familiarity with a diverse range of partners, allies and local actors and their approaches; - Expertise in building partner capacity and applying defence capabilities to deliver stability and peace; - A grasp of emerging artificial intelligence technology as a tool to understand human terrain; - Reach and insight developed through ‘knowledge networks’ of external experts in academia, think-tanks and NGOs. Successful change will be dependent on strong and overt advocacy by the MOD’s senior leadership and a revised set of personnel policies and procedures for this cohort’s selection, education, training, career management, incentivization, sustainability and support.

Abstract:
This presentation, directed to private sector investors from Finland, is about the investment climate for sustainable forest businesses in selected Latin American countries. The Forest Investment Attractiveness Index (IAIF) and the Process to Improve the Business Climate for Forest Investment (PROMECIF) were also discussed as tools to measure and help to improve the climate. The IAIF allows the systematic, periodic, quantitative and more rigorous analyses of the factors that affect the success of forest direct investment and business decision-making. This presentation was created for the AEL FinPRO Seminar "The Opportunities for the Forest Industry in Latin America," held in Helsinki, Finland on June 8th, 2006.

Abstract:
The Research and Technology Report is the status report on federally funded research, technology and innovation in Austria and is commissioned by the Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research (BMBWF) in consultation with the Federal Ministry for Climate Protection, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology (BMK) and the Federal Ministry of Labour and Economic Affairs (BMAW). The present report is marked by complex change at different levels, driven on the one hand by multiple crises that not only change the innovation behaviour of companies and scientific actors, but also bring about changed framework conditions. The Twin Transition is omnipresent. In this report, the focus is on the Green Transformation in research and business.
