Full textAbstract:
The ageing of the population needs the automation of patient monitoring. The objective of this is twofold: to improve care and reduce costs. Frailty, as a state of increased vulnerability resulting from several diseases, can be seen as a pandemic for older people. One of the most common detection tests is gait speed. This article compares the gait speed measured outdoors using smartphones with that measured using manual tests conducted in medical centres. In the experiments, the walking speed was measured over a straight path of 80 m. Additionally, the speed was measured over 2.4 m in the middle of the path, given that this is the minimum distance used in medical frailty tests. To eliminate external factors, the participants were healthy individuals, the weather was good, and the path was flat and free of obstacles. The results obtained are promising. The measurements taken with common smartphones over a straight path of 80 m are within the same order of error as those observed in the manual tests conducted by practitioners.

The study was conducted in Busoro Sub County in Kabarole District to assess the physical and economic suitability of the land for Tea, Maize and Bananas. Physical suitability was evaluated using a soil map of the study area. Soil types with their parameters of Cation Exchange Capacity, base saturation, pH, organic matter, nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorous were studied. The climate of the area was studied using annual monthly rainfall and temperature values for the area for more than thirty years. Production costs, market prices and annual yields per hectare for tea, maize and bananas were computed. Using Net Present Value approach, the economic suitability of each crop was computed. The economic and physical parameters were entered into a model built in Automated Land Evaluation System (ALES) software using the decision trees. Overall suitability evaluation results were produced for each of the respective crops. The results of the study indicated that different soil types (management units) had varying suitability among the three crops. Tea registered higher overall economic suitability followed by Bananas and then Maize. However, Bananas presented a higher overall physical suitability on all soil types followed by Tea and Maize. The study recommends conducting a mini agro-ecological zonation in planning and decision for maximum utilization of the land resources for a potential LUT is an important tool in ensuring improved agricultural livelihoods and household income.

Full textAbstract:
The physical education of children has always been a focus of attention for both Azerbaijani and global scholars. Prominent thinkers such as Nizami Ganjavi, Mahammad Fuzuli, Hasan bay Zardabi, Maragali Avhadi, Plato, Aristotle, John Amos Comenius, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Peter Lesgaft, and others have structured children's education and upbringing based on age groups. According to the renowned intellectual Hasan bay Zardabi, physical education plays a crucial role in successfully implementing intellectual and moral development. P.F. Lesgaft regarded physical education as one of the primary tools for shaping willpower, character, moral upbringing, intellectual ability, physical activity, and aesthetic appreciation. To improve these qualities, children have historically been divided into age groups. The division of children into age groups during the educational process has been approached differently by various scholars. The prominent Azerbaijani poet and philosopher Maragali Avhadi, when discussing physical education, proposed physical exercises and games suited to children’s age periods. This idea of aligning physical education with age-specific characteristics should be regarded as a significant development for its time. At the age of 7-8, as the bones are still developing and approaching the structure of adult bones, sports that require frequent jumping and agility, such as basketball, handball, and long jump, are recommended. This is because during this stage, the skeletal system is undergoing significant changes, and engaging in such activities helps in promoting bone strength and overall physical development. During the age period of 8-12, the development of all organs and systems in children and adolescents continues. The ossification of bones and the development of muscles accelerate, and by the page of 12, the bones no longer differ from those of an adult. In this stage, sports that require agility, flexibility, reaction time, attention, and psychological endurance, such as judo, soccer, table tennis, and badminton, can be recommended as suitable sports for children. These sports help develop physical and mental skills essential for further growth and development.

A cross-sectional design has often been used to study the quality of health-related educational materials meant for lay adults (e.g., patients, the public). The present study addressed this research limitation. We documented the proportion of online physical activity promotion (PAP) material revised within a given time period and how quality was affected, if at all. PAP web articles (N = 139) meant for lay adults, written in English, and first sampled in July 2018, were resampled in July 2020. Mean publication year at timepoint 1 was 2016.82 (±1.24). At timepoint 2 it was 2018.78 (±1.39). At both timepoints, suitability for lay use was appraised using five dimensions of the suitability assessment of materials (SAM) protocol: i.e., content, literacy demand, graphics, layout and typography, and learning stimulation/motivation. There were 61 web articles (43.9%) with indicated revision and analyzed in the present study. Articles were distributed across four organizational subgroups: commercial (n = 21), government (n = 13), professional association (n = 10), and voluntary health agency (n = 17). In the aggregate sample, two SAM dimensions significantly improved: literacy demand (e.g., more active voice) and layout & typography (e.g., formatting). Often, organizational subgroups mirrored the aggregate sample. Although the overall suitability remained within the satisfactory range across the dimensions, a moderate-to-large number of articles remained unsatisfactory at timepoint 2 within several subdomains (e.g., reading grade level, summary section). This study’s findings further evidence PAP materials are somewhat suitable and the need to study suitability subdomains in addition to overall suitability.

Full textAbstract:
Wheat is the second largest contributor to Nigeria's food import bill and puts pressure on the foreign reserve of the nation. Land suitability assessment is a prerequisite to achieving optimum utilization of the available land resources. Lack of knowledge on best combination of factors that suit production of wheat has contributed to the low produce. The study aims to assess land suitability of wheat production in kano using selected physical materials with the objectives to map out existing locations for wheat production in kano state, determine other areas that may be suitable for wheat production. The study utilized Landsat 8; Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) Multi-criteria Evaluator (MCE) integrated with GIS. Spatial factors for wheat cultivation such as soil texture, soil type, soil slope, rainfall range, geology map, elevation, land use land cover and their attribute were identified and were processed into spatial data. The factors were weighed according to their relevance. Land suitability model was constructed in ArcGIS software and spatial data were imported into (SRTM) and link to the land suitability model constructed. The spatial data integrated were computed and final visualization of land suitability map was produced and using ArcGIS 10.3 to identify potential areas. The result obtained showed that 16% were unsuitable, 19% were moderately suitable, 25% were highly suitably and then 40% were most suitable in the study area. Based on this finding, it is recommended that wheat cultivation should be practiced in a large scale in Kano state.

Full textAbstract:
Aru Islands Regency, especially in Sir-Sir Sub-district, there are several villages that are famous for their high potential seaweed resources, one of which is Leiting village. Eucheuma cottonii seaweed cultivation activities had stopped due to disease attacks. At present, the community of Leiting village wants to activate seaweed cultivation activities again, therefore it is necessary to assess the condition of the waters. This study aims to determine the physical-chemical parameters of the waters and analyse the suitability of these physical-chemical parameters for E. cottonii seaweed cultivation. Collection of data directly in the field includes physical-chemical parameters of the waters. Determination of the suitability of parameters for seaweed cultivation in the longline refers to Sirajudin (2009). The level of suitability was determined based on the suitability of physical-chemical parameters of waters for fish farming (Tiskiantoro, 2006). The study results show that the physical parameters of the waters include temperature range (27.20-28.07°C), salinity (28.99-29.61 ppt), brightness (2-4 metres), depth 2-4 metres, and the current strength 0.03-0.32 m/sec. While the range of water chemistry values includes pH (7.65-8.11), DO (6.85-9.52 mg/l), nitrate (0.131-0.153 mg/litre), phosphate (0.04-0.05 mg/litre), and Chlorophyll-a (0.72-3.61 mg/litre). The physico-chemical conditions in the waters of Leiting Village are still within the range of the quality standards for the development of seaweed cultivation. The results of the calculation of the suitability of waters in Leiting village found three consecutive suitability categories, which are very suitable (S1) of 12.24 hectares; conditionally suitable (S2) of 72.81 hectares and unsuitable (S3) of 11.98 hectares. So it can be concluded that seaweed cultivation activities are very feasible in the S1 area with a carrying capacity of 61 units and a capacity of 364 units are feasible in the S2 area.

Full textAbstract:
This paper proposes a model to identify the changing of bare grounds into built-up or developed areas. The model is based on the fuzzy system and the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) methods. The proposed model consists of four main sections, which include physical suitability, accessibility, the neighborhood effect, and a calculation of the overall suitability. In the first two parts, physical suitability and accessibility were obtained by defining fuzzy inference systems and applying the required map data associated with each section. However, in order to calculate the neighborhood effect, we used an enrichment factor method and a hybrid method consisting of the enrichment factor with the Few, Half, Most, and Majority quantifiers of the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) method. Finally, the three maps of physical suitability, accessibility, and the neighborhood effect were integrated by the fuzzy system method and the quantifiers of OWA to obtain the overall suitability maps. Then, the areas with high suitability were selected from the overall suitability map to be changed from bare ground into built-up areas. For this purpose, the proposed model was implemented and calibrated in the first period (2004–2010) and was evaluated by being applied to the second period (2010–2016). By comparing the estimated map of changes to the reference data and after the formation of the error matrix, it was determined that the OWA-Majority method has the best estimation compared to those of the other methods. Finally, the total accuracy and the Kappa coefficient for the OWA-Majority method in the second period were 98.98% and 98.98%, respectively, indicating this method’s high accuracy in predicting changes. In addition, the results were compared with those of other studies, which showed the effectiveness of the suggested method for urban development modeling.

The research objective was to determine the suitability of land regarding physical and economic conditions as a basis to support managers in planning effective agricultural development strategies that are suitable and sustainable for land potential in a future affected by climate change. In this research, physical and socio-economic data were collected by field surveys, household interviews (330 households), and agricultural manager discussions. Additionally, themethodology of land suitability evaluation was based on Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)(1976 & 2007) and Geographic Information System (GIS) tools, which were used to determine suitability classifications for land-use types (under different physical and socio-economic conditions) in three coastal districts within the Ben Tre province. The results showed that agricultural production status in the research area was divided into three agro-ecological zones including the freshwater zone, brackish water zone, and saltwater zone of which the highest rate of agricultural land area was aquaculture. The next major proportion of agricultural area belonged to land for planting perennial crops and land for planting annual crops. Besides, 7 and 8 land suitability zones were determined, respectively, depending on physical and economic conditions, for 11 main land-use types. This research contributes toward basic knowledge that aims to support local decision makers in their transformation of agricultural land and adaptation of salinization in the future.

Physical land suitability evaluation is crucial to rural spatial planning, as it directly contributes to designing successful and sustainable interventions. This paper deals with a physical land-suitability evaluation model for Mantonico, a historical and traditional grape variety of Southern Calabria (Italy), which is showing a considerable decline in its cultivation, owing to the abandonment of this cultivar in favor of others that are certainly more quantitatively productive, yet less valuable from a traditional and cultural point of view. The evaluation model developed was based on consolidated GIS-based MCDA (Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis) procedure and showed that the choice of the criteria (factors and constraints), which describe the physical land suitability for a niche product, is important and delicate. In fact, it is not always easy to establish how territorial characteristics may influence the development of the cultivation of an agricultural product. In this paper, the choice and, above all, the values associated to the factors, adequately represented real conditions and, as a consequence, the results of the model showed a clear coherence between suitability gradients and lands with similar cultivations. Results were validated by comparing the real geographical distribution of the current vine growing to the suitability value obtaining a very positive feedback on the robustness of the implemented model. The comparison between current vine-growing areas and the values obtained from the model clearly shows that the current vine-growing sites of the study area fall in suitable and very suitable classes (83.8%).

Full textAbstract:
Vortex rock weirs (VRW) are often used in natural channel design applications to maintain channel form and function, provide physical channel stability, and enhance aquatic habitats. A balanced approach is required to address (often) conflicting goals of VRWs, which include providing erosion protection and grade control while facilitating fish passage for target species. This research evaluated a sequence of modified VRWs in a small-scale watercourse in Southern Ontario, Canada. To determine passage suitability for the target fish species, the water level, water temperature, and channel geometries at 10 VRWs and 11 adjacent pools were monitored under different water level conditions. The structural dimensions and velocity at each VRW were compared to the burst swim speed of local small-bodied fish species to determine fish passage suitability and identify the best practices for VRW design and construction. The results concluded that VRWs provided suitable passage for small-bodied fish species through gap and over-weir flow pathways, particularly during low water level conditions. Further, appropriate design considerations based on the VRW gradient, VRW width, keystone size, and pool length contributed to 100% fish ‘passability’ under all water level conditions. The methodology is provided for predicting the velocity and small-bodied fish passage suitability through VRWs, informing the best practices for VRW design and construction while balancing the requirements for channel stability and fish passage, and contributing to fish population management strategies.

Industrial Gas Turbines allow operation with a wide variety of gaseous and liquid fuels. To determine the suitability for operation with a gas fuel system, various physical parameters of the proposed fuel need to be determined: heating value, dew point, Joule-Thompson coefficient, Wobbe Index, and others. This paper describes an approach to provide a consistent treatment for determining the above physical properties. Special focus is given to the problem of determining the dew point of the potential fuel gas at various pressure levels. A dew point calculation using appropriate equations of state is described, and results are presented. In particular the treatment of heavier hydrocarbons, and water is addressed and recommendations about the necessary data input are made. Since any fuel gas system causes pressure drops in the fuel gas, the temperature reduction due to the Joule-Thompson effect has to be considered and quantified. Suggestions about how to approach fuel suitability questions during the project development and construction phase, as well as in operation are made.

Astronomical observatory construction plays an essential role in astronomy research, education, and tourism development worldwide. This study develops siting distribution scenarios for astronomical observatory locations in Indonesia using a suitability analysis by integrating the physical and atmospheric observatory suitability indexes, machine learning models, and long-term climate models. Subsequently, potential sites are equalized based on longitude and latitude zonal divisions considering air pollution disturbance risks. The study novelty comes from the integrated model development of physical and socio-economic factors, dynamic spatiotemporal analysis of atmospheric factors, and the consideration of equitable low air-pollution-disturbance-risk distribution in optimal country-level observatory construction scenarios. Generally, Indonesia comprises high suitability index and low multi-source air pollution risk areas, although some area has high astronomical suitability and high–medium air pollution risk. Most of Java, the east coast of Sumatra, and the west and south coasts of Kalimantan demonstrate "low astronomical suitability–high air pollution risk.” A total of eighteen locations are recommended for new observatories, of which five, one, three, four, two, and three are on Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Nusa Tenggara, Sulawesi, and Papua, respectively. This study provides a comprehensive approach to determine the optimal observatory construction site to optimize the potential of astronomical activities.

Urban parks are expected to balance the city ecosystem by reducing air temperature and increasing oxygen levels, becoming a space for community interaction, beautifying the urban environment, and reviving economic activities around it. According to the public green open space (GOS) typology classification, Rajekwesi Park is an urban park in the Bojonegoro Urban Area. However, there are still problematic physical elements in utilizing Rajekwesi Park as a public GOS. One of the issues with the park is the lack of functioning park lights, which limits visibility at night. These problems affect the decline in the ability of urban parks to attract people to engage in activities. It is necessary to measure the suitability of physical elements for urban park utilization in Rajekwesi Park. The evaluation was conducted using scoring analysis techniques with data obtained from descriptive evaluative analysis based on six variables: ecology, water catchment, socio-cultural, aesthetic, economic, and disaster management. Based on the analysis results, it can be concluded that the suitability of physical elements in Rajekwesi Park is in the appropriate category, with a score of 75%. The suitability includes all variables with a suitability score ≥ 59.8%. These variables include ecology with an appropriate class, water catchment with a quite appropriate class, socio-cultural with an appropriate class, aesthetic with an appropriate class, economic with an appropriate class, and disaster management with a quite appropriate class.

The main factors affecting plant growth and yield are soil, climate, and plants. The influence of clime is more than soil on plant growth under certain conditions. The evidence is that some cover vegetation growth conditions are much different even though they grow on the same land. In each distinct place, the harvest time of one type of plant is not the same. One crucial factor that affects this is the daily growth rate or the degree of Growing Degree Days (GDD). Know parameters such as soil type, slope, land use, rainfall, and GDD temperature by using geographic information systems in determining the suitability of agricultural commodity development areas. The study aims to determine the suitability of soybean cropland in West Sumatra based on GDD value. Conducting land suitability analysis using the GDD method through several stages, namely, the classification of soybean land suitability parameters, making a map of soybean plant land suitability in physical characteristics, classifying the GDD value of soybean plants for the West Sumatra region, and making a soybean cropland suitability map based on GDD value. The potential land for soybean cultivation in West Sumatra based on land suitability class, physical characteristics, and GDD value is 555,791.66 hectares in class S1 (very suitable) and an area of 2,313,796.44 hectares in class S2 (appropriate enough). The most optimal planting time for soybean cultivation is in August. Lima Puluh Kota Regency, Pasaman Regency, Sijunjung Regency, and Solok Regency have land suitable for soybean cultivation with more than 200 thousand hectares of areas and are in areas with growing degree days suitable for soybean growth.

Background: Seaweed is widely cultivated in coastal areas of Indonesia, one of which can be found in Kayeli Bay, Buru Regency. One of the problems faced by farmers in cultivating seaweed in this area is that there is no division of suitable areas for cultivation land in the form of thematic maps, especially using physical-chemical parameters of waters. Method: This activity includes several stages, namely location survey, data collection or collection and preparation of a database. Measurements of physical and chemical parameters of waters are carried out directly in the field (in situ) and in the laboratory (ex situ). The measurement parameters include temperature, brightness, wave height, current speed, pH, salinity, DO, nitrate and phosphate. To create a thematic map of land suitability, the ArcGis application was used. Results: Most of the physical and chemical parameters of the waters are still suitable for seaweed cultivation, except for temperature and phosphate. The results of land suitability evaluation/analysis based on water physical-chemical parameters produce two land suitability categories, namely suitable (S2) and very suitable (S1). The category corresponds to an area of 110.2 ha or 29% and very corresponds to an area of 269.8 ha or 71%. Conclusion: The thematic map of Kayeli Bay waters, Buru Regency shows that the suitability of seaweed cultivation land is divided into two categories, namely suitable at 29% and very suitable at 71%. However, the temperature and phosphate parameters at the time of measurement were in the category not suitable for seaweed cultivation.

Sustainable river management requires a thorough understanding of the response of aquatic biota to riverine microhabitat variability. The purpose of this study was to assess macroinvertebrate hydraulic-habitat suitability in Ecuadorian Andean rivers to support habitat modelling for sustainable ecosystem management. 597 macroinvertebrate samples were collected from ten sampling stations the Yanuncay River, Ecuador. Physical, chemical, hydraulic and habitat variables were measured/calculated. Froude number, Reynolds number, substrate index and algae coverage were major drivers of macroinvertebrate response, and were used to develop suitability curves for Baetodes, Andesiops, Camelobaetidius, Ecuaphlebia, Anacroneuria, Atopsyche, Simulium and Palpomyia using General Additive Models. Standardised density contours of taxa as functions of hydraulic and habitat variables were also developed. Taxonomic response was related to body structures/shapes and feeding habits. Baetodoes, Simulium, Anacroneuria and Atopsyche preferred fast flowing waters, and thus, they could be significantly affected in case of flow reduction. Similar habitat suitability curves were developed from the main river and the tributaries, possibly due to the short distance between the sampling stations. This study fills a major knowledge gap by developing macroinvertebrate habitat suitability curves for future physical habitat simulations and environmental flow assessments in the Andean region.

Planning for agricultural expansion and solving the problem of global water shortages both need the use of a critical instrument, the assessment of land suitability for irrigation. A land suitability analysis evaluates a site to determine whether it is suitable or adequate for specific land use in that location. Tools for assessing land suitability have been widely used to find more effective irrigation systems in agricultural areas. The appropriateness of the land was assessed in this research using a GIS-based multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach. Numerous criteria, including bio-physical and socioeconomic indices, were considered in the land suitability analysis. GIS can be a useful tool for locating irrigable land and mapping irrigationready area. The fusion of RS-GIS and application of multi-Criteria Evaluation utilizing Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)could provide a superior database and route map for decision-makers who are considering switching crop land for irrigation land. A review of the multicriteria analysis used to create the Land Suitability Map was conducted. The best appropriate multicriteria decision making in a GIS system was determined for irrigation land suitability.

Land suitability analysis is a process of evaluating various criteria to assess the appropriateness of land for specific purposes, such as agriculture, urban development, conservation, or infrastructure projects. This paper integrates multi-criteria analysis (MCA) and geographic information systems (GIS) to assess potential residential development suitability in Nusantara—the new Indonesian Capital. This study used two models to evaluate residential development suitability—a simple suitability model with equal criteria weight and a weighted suitability model using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) approach with two scenarios (waterfront city and biodiversity-positive city). Various criteria, including physical attributes, natural preservation and protection, blue amenities, transport accessibility, and natural disaster risks, were analysed. Integrating MCA with the AHP approach and GIS can be considered an advanced methodology. The simple suitability model is relatively more straightforward than the weighted suitability model since it does not require a weighting process. However, the weighted suitability model produced more nuanced results for the case study as the approach more accurately models real-world conditions. The weighted suitability analysis showed that most of the western and eastern parts of the new capital are highly suitable for future residential development. Comparing the Indonesian government’s planned residential areas with the result of the weighted suitability model for the biodiversity-positive city scenario showed that most planned residential areas are in highly suitable areas. The methodologies in the paper can be extended to similar contexts in different geographical areas.

The pond land suitability in a fish cultivation business is very necessary to be considered to increase the catfish production in Padang city suitability can be done based on 2 aspects, i.e economic (economic evaluation) and physical evaluation. This research aims to the analysis of pond land suitability for the cultivation of catfish enlargement in Padang city using Geographic Information System (GIS) application. The method is overlaid using 9 parameters: a) cultivation pond; b) distance of cultivation from transportation facilities; c) location of cultivation from water sources (rivers/drainage); d) slope; e) soil type; f) land use; g) altitude; h) flood disaster; and i) landslide, then obtained the result of the most suitable area for the catfish cultivation in Padang city is Kuranji Sub-district with the most important parameter is the land use.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> The fitness of land for a defined use is termed as land suitability. The aim of the study is to find the land suitability of for selected crops examining the indicators of land suitability. The study focuses on analysing suitability of agricultural crops in Pazhayannur Block of Thrissur District. Pazhayannur is the administrative unit (block) in the east of the Talapilli Taluk of Thrissur District in Kerala. The physical and chemical characteristics of the soils of Pazhayannur block like texture, depth, slope, erosion, pH, salinity and soil available primary nutrients (NPK), secondary nutrients and micronutrients are identified. The slope of the terrain using Cartosat-Digital Elevation Model, soil erosion, rainfall and land capability is analysed for suitability classification. Land suitability is studied for the selected crops like paddy, banana, coconut, and rubber. The weighted overlay analysis in GIS is adopted for the analysis. The parameters are weighted based on its class and its influence in suitability of specific crops. The results on agricultural land suitability for individual crops were divided into 5 categories according to the land suitability classification of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). It is identified that Pazhayannur has potential for the cultivation of the selected crops. The crops show high suitability (S1) in minor proportion and moderate suitability (S2) is found in 30 percent and above and marginal suitability (S3) is noticed in lesser areas. There is few portion of land which is currently not suitable for cultivation (N1) because of its topographic limitations. The restricted areas of forest are permanently not suited for agriculture (N2).</p>

Full textAbstract:
Several programs have been undertaken during the last few years to install rooftop rainwater harvesting systems as an alternative drinking water supply source both in the coastal and arsenic affected areas in Bangladesh. In this study, quality of the harvested rainwater used for drinking water supply was assessed. A total of 308 harvested rainwater samples were collected from the different storage reservoirs located both in coastal and arsenic affected areas and analysed for various physical, chemical and microbial indicators. Most of the physical and chemical water quality parameters were well below the Bangladesh Drinking Water Standard and WHO guideline values. However, the harvested rainwater was found microbiologically contaminated to some extent and the water is not suitable for consumption without treatment. For safe and sustainable rainwater harvesting, WHO guideline and water safely plan (WSP) can be adopted in Bangladesh.
