Abstract:
Dendrochronological problems in dating tropical tree species are responsible for a large gap in global dendroclimatic reconstructions. Study of Cedrela and Juglans in the low-latitude forests of northern Argentina and Bolivia has resulted in development of four chronologies. These genera have good tree-ring characteristics, and statistics indicate that they have good potential for dendroclimatology. Longer series should be obtained from older stands.

Abstract:
Si bien en los últimos años se han realizado en Cataluña un número relevante de estudios etnobotánicos, el territorio se encuentra prospectado de forma desigual. Uno de los principales objetivos de esta tesis doctoral era llenar los vacíos existentes, especialmente las zonas áridas y semiáridas que ocupan las áreas internas del territorio catalán, para obtener una visión general sobre el estado de los conocimientos tradicionales, haciendo hincapié en las plantas y en sus usos, y su capacidad de resiliencia frente a la globalización. Otro objetivo general fue utilizar la gran cantidad de datos registrados hasta el momento para realizar análisis globales del territorio. La metodología llevada a cabo durante el trabajo de campo ha sido la recopilación de información etnobotánica mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas a informantes locales, generalmente seleccionados mediante el método bola de nieve, para el posterior análisis. Los resultados de esta tesis han sido agrupados en cuatro bloques, cada uno de les cuales incluye uno o más trabajos. El primero, Prospecciones etnoflorísticas, está compuesto por tres estudios etnobotánicos realizados en tres zonas geográficas. El segundo, Datos etnobotánicos, territorio y metanálisis, incluye varios trabajos metanalíticos con diferentes enfoques específicos. El tercer bloque, Nuevos enfoques etnobotánicos, trata aspectos poco comunes en estudios etnobotánicos, como la recopilación de datos de los herbarios históricos o los usos populares de la plantas para el tratamiento del cáncer. Finalmente, el último bloque, Temática colateral, analiza la información etnobotánica a través de la filogenia del género Artemisia, así como las concentraciones de artemisinina de diferentes especies de este género con el objetivo de detectar otras especies que posean propiedades antimaláricas. En esta tesis, también se han incluido tres catálogos, uno etnoflorístico, otro de mezclas de plantas medicinales y el último dedicado a las mezclas de plantas alimentarias, fruto de la prospección etnobotánica en una zona árida o semiárida de Catalunya. Las principales conclusiones de esta tesis son que Cataluña es un territorio bien prospectado, con un sólido conocimiento tradicional sobre las plantas, que aún está vivo, a pesar de la erosión que sufre, y que los estudios etnobotánicos pueden ser la base para futuros alimentos, drogas y otros elementos o productos que aumentan el bienestar de nuestra sociedad.
Although a relevant number of ethnobotanical studies have been carried out in Catalonia during the last years, the sampling remained unequally distributed and incomplete. Especially, research was lacking for the arid and semi-arid zones occupying the inner areas of this part of the Catalan- language territories, located in the NE of the Iberian Peninsula. In this scenario, one of the main objectives of this PhD thesis was to fill the existing gaps in the ethnobotanically-sampled territories in order to get an overview about the state of the traditional knowledge, emphasising on plants and on their uses, and its resilience to globalization. Another general objective was to use the high amount of data recorded to undertake global analyses. The methodology to reach this general objective has been to collect and to analyse the data obtained from the semi-structured interviews to local informants, usually selected by the snowball method. The results have been grouped in four major chapters, each of which including one or more studies. The first one, Ethnofloristic prospections, is composed by three ethnobotanical studies carried out in three geographic zones. The second one, Ethnobotanical data, territory and meta- analyses, includes several meta-analytic studies, each of them highlighting a specific focus. The third chapter, New ethnobotanical approaches, deals with unusual aspects of the ethnobotanical studies, such as the data collection from the historical herbaria or the plant popular uses in the cancer treatment. Finally, the last chapter, Collateral subject, is devoted to analysing artemisinin concentrations and ethnobotanical information across the phylogeny of the genus Artemisia with the aim of detecting other species possessing antimalarial properties. Three catalogues have been included in this thesis, an ethnofloristic one, another one of medicinal plant mixtures and a last one devoted to food plant mixtures. The main conclusions that come out from this thesis are that Catalonia is a well-prospected territory, with a robust traditional knowledge on plants, which is still alive, despite the erosion it is suffering, and that ethnobotanical studies can be the basis for future foods and drugs and other elements or products that increase the well-being of our society.

Abstract:
Thesis (PhD. (Anthropology)) --University of Limpopo, 2008
In this study, the multidisciplinary epistemology of ethnobotany is reviewed within the wider context of ethnoecology and indigenous knowledge systems. The major problems derived from this theoretical framework cover aspects of the relationship between cultural groups and their natural environment - particularly the botanical component of the latter. Problems and critical questions about this relationship were investigated in selected areas of the Bushbuckridge district, which are inhabited by a number ofTsonga-Shangana communities. Salient aspects of the natural habitat in the study area are discussed with special reference to the vegetation, climate and soil types. A proper understanding of the culturally-based exploitation of plant resources necessitates a sound knowledge of the culture concerned, including relevan t aspects of its value-system and cosmology. In this review, emphasis is placed on those aspects of culture that are directly concerned with the utilisation of plant resources. The latter include a wide range of economic, technological and medicinal uses. Specimens of 200 plants were collected and identified by the University of Limpopo Herbarium. The uses of every species are described. Systematised tables of plant uses are presented, as well as comparative lists in which selected uses are compared to those of other cultures in which the same species are used. The effects of plant utilisation, as well as indigenous forms of resource management, are also discussed. Recommendations are made on how to counter the process of environmental degradation which is caused by over-exploitation .

Abstract:
Le Tombac est une plante à fumer plantée au Liban, pays méditerranéen doté de conditions climatiques uniques reflétant une biodiversité particulière permettant la présence de nombreux habitats végétaux à différents niveaux de la mer. Cependant, cette variété de plante à fumer locale libanaise est principalement plantée dans la vallée d’Akkar (nord du Liban) du côté de la mer, ce qui lui confère une saveur et un arôme uniques qui la différencie du fameux tabac oriental de haute valeur aromatique qui est cultivé dans quelques-uns des très rares pays méditerranéens voisins. Étant donné que le Tombac a besoin de conditions de croissances particulières et afin de conserver son arôme et sa saveur uniques, une procédure de récolte et de séchage spéciale est supposée contribuer à la production de ses métabolites secondaires qui jouent un rôle important en tant que bio-pesticide végétal préliminaire. La production de feuilles sèches de Tombac au Liban est continue car elle est subventionnée par une entreprise gouvernementale appelée Régie Libanaise des Tabacs et Tombacs, sous la supervision du ministère des Finances, dans le but de réduire l'immigration des agriculteurs de leurs villages. Les plantes sèches de Tombac nécessitent un appareil à fumer spécial appelé pipe à eau (Shisha ou Arguilet en arabe), qui peut également être utilisé pour le tabac Mouassel (un mélange spécial contenant du saccharose et de la glycérine) après avoir changé le type de tête, où les feuilles sont séchées pour être fumées, elles sont ensuite trempées dans de l’eau et, après le rinçage, elles sont fixées sur la tête en forme de selle sur le tuyau d’eau avec des braises de charbon au-dessus. Le Tombac est considéré comme une plante cancérigène et dangereuse, non seulement pour la santé des fumeurs, mais également pour les mains et les parties du corps des agriculteurs et les travailleurs dans les champs ou dans les ateliers d’emballage qui sont en contact avec sa sève à tous les stades de la production en raison de l’effet de la maladie du tabac vert (MTV). De nos jours, les pesticides bio-essences dérivés de certains extraits de métabolites végétaux sont considérés comme l'une des solutions les plus prometteuses pour la lutte antiparasitaire respectueuse de l'environnement en agriculture. En raison de ces faits, un certain nombre d’études ont été menées sur la plante Tombac afin de la définir, de déterminer son origine, sa taxonomie, ses plantations, ses utilisations, ses effets sur la santé de l’homme, que ce soit pour les fumeurs ou les travailleurs, et en tant que source prometteuse d’utilisation écologique de Tombac comme bio-essence pour l’avenir par l’analyse chromatographique de cette huile
Tombac is a smoking plant that is planted in Lebanon a Mediterranean country that has unique climatic conditions which reflect a special biodiversity allowing the presence of many plants habitats at different sea levels. However, this Lebanese local smoking plant variety is planted mainly in Akkar valley north of Lebanon and located on the sea side (Fig.1) giving it a unique smoking flavor and aroma which makes it different from the famous valuable high aromatic oriental tobacco that is grown in some of very few nearby Mediterranean countries. Since Tombac needs a special growing conditions, and in order to keep its unique aroma and flavor, a special harvest and drying procedures are performed that is believed to contribute in the production of its secondary metabolites that play an important role as a preliminary plant biopesticides. Tombac dry leaf production in Lebanon is continuous because it is subsidized by a governmental enterprise called Régie Libanaise des Tabacs & Tombacs under the supervision of the Ministry of finance in the purpose of reducing the immigration of the farmers from their villages. Tombac dry plants needs a special smoking apparatus known as water pipe or shisha (fig.2) that can be used also for tobacco Mouassel (a special mix contains sucrose and glycerine) after changing the head type (fig.2) where the dried leaves to be smoked are soaked in water and after rinsing it is fixed on the bowel-shaped head of the water pipe with the heated charcoal on it (fig.3). Tombac is considered a carcinogenic and hazardous plant not only on the health of their smokers , but also for the hands and body parts of those farmers and labors who work in the field, packaging, and get in contact with its sap(fig.4) in all the stages of production because of the effect of Green Tobacco Sickness (GTS). Nowadays, Bio-oil pesticide derived from some plant secondary metabolite extracts is considered one of the most promising solutions for Eco-friendly pest control in agriculture. Because of these facts, a number of studies were done on Tombac plant to define it, cover its origin, taxonomy, plantation, uses, effects on human health as smokers as well as workers and the alternative eco-friendly use of Tombac as promising source bio oil pesticide for the future

Abstract:
In the Ecuadorian electrical market, several sugar plants, which significantly participate in the local electricity market, are producing their own energy and commercializing the surplus to the electrical market. This study evaluates the integral use of the sugar cane bagasse for productive process on a Cogeneration Power Plant in an Ecuadorian Sugar Company [8]. The electrical generation based on biomass requires a great initial investment. The cost is around US$ 800/kW installed, twice the US$ 400/kW initial investment of conventional thermoelectric power plant and almost equal to the US$ 1,000/kW initial cost of hydroelectric power plant [5]. A thermoeconomic study was carried out on the production of electricity and the sales of the surplus of 27 MWe average produced by the power plant. An operational analysis was made using instantaneous values from the estimated curves of demand and generation of electricity. From the results, it was concluded that the generated electricity costs are 0.0443 US$/kWh, while the costs of the electricity from Fossil Power Plants (burning fuel oil, diesel fuel and natural gas) are in the range 0.03–0.15 US$/kWh and from Hydroelectric Plants are about 0.02 US$/kWh. Cogeneration power plants burning sugar cane bagasse could contribute to the mitigation of climatic change. This specific case study shows the reduction of the prospective emissions of greenhouse gases, around 55,188 ton of CO2 equivalent yearly for this cogeneration power plant.

The technologies are examined based on availability, cost effectiveness, and importance to a condition monitoring program. Although vibration analysis and oil analysis are the primary emphasis for performing condition monitoring, the inter-relationships between the technologies, techniques and other readily available plant data explored here demonstrate how a more complete and accurate diagnosis of the condition of a machine set can be determined. A discussion of each technology will include the various machine set faults which the technology will identify, as well as, how the overlapping technologies improve the effectiveness of a condition monitoring program.

Abstract:
For simulating renovation of industrial facilities, 3D models are very useful. However, it is time-consuming to create 3D models. The terrestrial laser scanner is effective for easily capturing 3D data of large-scale facilities. So far, many researchers have proposed methods for reconstructing pipe structures in industrial plants using point-clouds. In those methods, planes and cylinders are extracted from point-clouds, but they are not enough for creating various types of equipment. Especially, in manufacturing plants for liquids and gases, rotating surfaces and generalized cylinders are typically used as well as planes and cylinders. In this paper, this paper proposes methods for extracting rotating surfaces and generalized cylinders from noisy and incomplete point-clouds. Since the section shapes of rotating surfaces and generalized cylinders are approximately ellipses, this method detects elliptic section shapes from point-clouds. Then rotating surfaces and generalized cylinders are reconstructed by extracting the center curves and section circles. Then the authors combine this method with general-purpose voxel-based shape reconstruction methods. Since this method is robust to missing points caused by occlusion, the quality of shape reconstruction can be improved even if points are partly missing due to occlusion.

Abstract:
CLARISSA (Child Labour: Action-Research-Innovation in South and South-Eastern Asia) is a large-scale Participatory Action Research programme which aims to identify, evidence, and promote effective multi-stakeholder action to tackle the drivers of the worst forms of child labour in selected supply chains in Bangladesh, Nepal, and Myanmar. CLARISSA places a particular focus on participants’ own ‘agency’. In other words, participants’ ability to understand the situation they face, and to develop and take actions in response to them. Most of CLARISSA’s participants are children. This document shares the design and overarching methodology of the CLARISSA programme, which was co-developed with all consortium partners during and since the co-generation phase of the programme (September 2018–June 2020). The immediate audience is the CLARISSA programme implementation teams, plus the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO). This design document is also a useful reference point for other programmes trying to build large-scale participatory processes. It provides a clear overview of the CLARISSA programmatic approach, the design, and how it is being operationalised in context.

Abstract:
This Insight Note contributes to the growing body of knowledge on teaching practices that foster student learning and achievement by analysing in-depth qualitative data from classroom observations and teacher interviews. Much of the research on teachers and teaching in development literature focuses on observable and quantified factors, including qualifications and training. But simply being qualified (with a university degree in education or subject areas), or trained in certain ways (e.g., coaching versus in-service) explains very little of the variation in learning outcomes (Kane and Staiger, 2008; Wößmann, 2003; Das and Bau, 2020). Teaching is a complex set of practices that draw on teachers’ beliefs about learning, their prior experiences, their content and pedagogical knowledge and repertoire, and their commitment and personality. Recent research in the educational development literature has turned to examining teaching practices, including content knowledge, pedagogical practices, and teacher-student interactions, primarily through quantitative data from knowledge tests and classroom observations of practices (see Bruns, De Gregorio and Taut, 2016; Filmer, Molina and Wane, 2020; Glewwe et al, in progress). Other studies, such as TIMSS, the OECD and a few World Bank studies have used classroom videos to further explain high inference factors of teachers’ (Gallimore and Hiebert, 2000; Tomáš and Seidel, 2013). In this Note, we ask the question: What are the teaching practices that support and foster high levels of learning? Vietnam is a useful case to examine because student learning outcomes based on international tests are high, and most students pass the basic learning levels (Dang, Glewwe, Lee and Vu, 2020). But considerable variation exists between learning outcomes, particularly at the secondary level, where high achieving students will continue to upper-secondary and lower achieving students will drop out at Grade 9 (Dang and Glewwe, 2018). So what differentiates teaching for those who achieve these high learning outcomes and those who don’t? Some characteristics of teachers, such as qualifications and professional commitment, do not vary greatly because most Vietnamese teachers meet the national standards in terms of qualifications (have a college degree) and have a high level of professionalism (Glewwe et al., in progress). Other factors that influence teaching, such as using lesson plans and teaching the national curriculum, are also highly regulated. Therefore, to explain how teaching might affect student learning outcomes, it is important to examine more closely teachers’ practices in the classroom.

Abstract:
This research sought to understand the impact of probation inspection on probation policy, practice and practitioners. This important but neglected area of study has significant ramifications because the Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Probation has considerable power to influence policy through its inspection regime and research activities. The study utilised a mixed methodological approach comprising observations of inspections and interviews with people who work in probation, the Inspectorate and external stakeholders. In total, 77 people were interviewed or took part in focus groups. Probation practitioners, managers and leaders were interviewed in the weeks after an inspection to find out how they experienced the process of inspection. Staff at HMI Probation were interviewed to understand what inspection is for and how it works. External stakeholders representing people from the voluntary sector, politics and other non-departmental bodies were interviewed to find out how they used the work of inspection in their own roles. Finally, leaders within the National Probation Service and Her Majesty’s Prisons and Probation Service were interviewed to see how inspection impacts on policy more broadly. The data were analysed thematically with five key themes being identified. Overall, participants were positive about the way inspection is carried out in the field of probation. The main findings are: 1. Inspection places a burden on practitioners and organisations. Practitioners talked about the anxiety that a looming inspection created and how management teams created additional pressures which were hard to cope with on top of already high workloads. Staff responsible for managing the inspection and with leadership positions talked about the amount of time the process of inspection took up. Importantly, inspection was seen to take people away from their day jobs and meant other priorities were side-lined, even if temporarily. However, the case interviews that practitioners take part in were seen as incredibly valuable exercises which gave staff the opportunity to reflect on their practice and receive positive feedback and validation for their work. 2. Providers said that the findings and conclusions from inspections were often accurate and, to some extent, unsurprising. However, they sometimes find it difficult to implement recommendations due to reports failing to take context into account. Negative reports have a serious impact on staff morale, especially for CRCs and there was concern about the impact of negative findings on a provider’s reputation. 3. External stakeholders value the work of the Inspectorate. The Inspectorate is seen to generate highly valid and meaningful data which stakeholders can use in their own roles. This can include pushing for policy reform or holding government to account from different perspectives. In particular, thematic inspections were seen to be useful here. 4. The regulatory landscape in probation is complex with an array of actors working to hold providers to account. When compared to other forms of regulation such as audit or contract management the Inspectorate was perceived positively due to its methodological approach as well as the way it reflects the values of probation itself. 5. Overall, the inspectorate appears to garner considerable legitimacy from those it inspects. This should, in theory, support the way it can impact on policy and practice. There are some areas for development here though such as more engagement with service users. While recognising that the Inspectorate has made a concerted effort to do this in the last two years participants all felt that more needs to be done to increase that trust between the inspectorate and service users. Overall, the Inspectorate was seen to be independent and 3 impartial although this belief was less prevalent amongst people in CRCs who argued that the Inspectorate has been biased towards supporting its own arguments around reversing the now failed policy of Transforming Rehabilitation. There was some debate amongst participants about how the Inspectorate could, or should, enforce compliance with its recommendations although most people were happy with the primarily relational way of encouraging compliance with sanctions for non-compliance being considered relatively unnecessary. To conclude, the work of the Inspectorate has a significant impact on probation policy, practice and practitioners. The majority of participants were positive about the process of inspection and the Inspectorate more broadly, notwithstanding some of the issues raised in the findings. There are some developments which the Inspectorate could consider to reduce the burden inspection places on providers and practitioners and enhance its impact such as amending the frequency of inspection, improving the feedback given to practitioners and providing more localised feedback, and working to reduce or limit perceptions of bias amongst people in CRCs. The Inspectorate could also do more to capture the impact it has on providers and practitioners – both positive and negative - through existing procedures that are in place such as post-case interview surveys and tracking the implementation of recommendations.
