Abstract:

Abstract Forest restoration positively affects rural economies by facilitating employment and income generation with logging, wood utilization, and other restoration activities. To investigate economic effects and modeling of forest restoration, a regional contribution analysis of the Four Forest Restoration Initiative (4FRI) in Arizona was conducted. With over 12,000 acres mechanically thinned in 2017, 4FRI treatments led to the processing of 400,000 green tons of sawlogs and biomass. Restoration activities spurred more than 900 full-time equivalent jobs in the region, $50 million in regional labor income, and affected over 140 different industry sectors in the region. When compared to the US Forest Service Treatments for Restoration Economic Analysis Tool model estimates for 4FRI economic contributions, we found that using primary data from 4FRI contractors provided more conservative results. Primary considerations for modeling forest restoration contributions include contractor surveys, appropriate investigation of the regional context, methodological transparency in bridging restoration expenditures to input-output models, and consideration of how to enhance restoration contributions.

Abstract:

Ongoing climate change and human activities have a great effect on vegetation dynamics. Understanding the impact of climate change and human activities on vegetation dynamics in different ecologically vulnerable regions has great significance in ecosystem management. In this study, the predicted NPP (Net Primary Productivity) and the actual NPP based on different ecological process data and models were combined to estimate the vegetation dynamics and their driving forces in the Northern Wind-sand, Loess Plateau, Arid Desert, Tibetan Plateau, and Karst regions from 2000 to 2015. The results indicated that the NPP in all ecologically vulnerable regions showed a restoration trend, except for that in the Karst region, and the percentage of areas in which NPP increased were, in order, 78% for the Loess Plateau, 71% for the Northern Wind-sand, 69% for the Arid Desert, 54% for the Tibetan Plateau, and 31% for the Karst regions. Vegetation restorations in the Northern Wind-sand and Arid Desert regions were primarily attributable to human activities (86% and 61% of the restoration area, respectively), indicating the success of ecological restoration programs. The Loess Plateau had the largest proportion of vegetation restoration area (44%), which was driven by combined effects of climate and human factors. In the Tibetan Plateau, the vegetation changes due to climate factors were primarily distributed in the west, while those due to human factors were primarily distributed in the east. Human activities caused nearly 60% of the vegetation degradation in the Karst region. Based on these results, it is recognizable that regional climate conditions are the key factor that limits ecological restoration. Therefore, future policy-making should pay more attention to the local characteristics of different ecological vulnerable regions in regional ecosystem management to select reasonable restoration measures, improve restoration efficiency, and maximize the benefits of ecological restoration programs.

Abstract:

The capacity of a large gas field is up to hundreds of billions of cubic metres, and percentage of the CO2 volume in raw gas is 8%~10%. Estimated by survey data and empirical equations, over 60% of the total emission from the gas field can be absorbed and utilized by regional crops and vegetation, and nearly a million tons per year exhausted. Based on analysis of mechanism and effect of CO2 influence on regional plants, soil and atmosphere, approaches for regional ecological restoration are put forward, including the approach of regional crops restoration, other plants restoration, ecological landscape reconstruction, and CO2 reduction technologies. This study provides reference for sustainable development of other gas field in low carbon era.

Abstract:

In forest landscape restoration, one of the key objectives is to improve the water conservation capacity of the deforested land. A rapid, accurate assessment of the effects of the restoration measures on the water conservation capacity of targeted forests can help forest managers to identify the best practices for forest restoration. However, the traditional assessment tools of forest water conservation function lack a description of forest growth, and are featured by complex computation, which fails to evaluate the effects of forest restoration on the regional forest water conservation capacity in an efficient way. To address this issue, through combining the forest restoration evaluation model (equivalent recovery area, ERA), classic forest water storage capacity estimation (total water storage capacity), this study has taken advantage of ENVI/IDL, ArcGIS Engine/C#.Net to develop the Forest and Water Assessment Tool (FWAT) for assessing the changes of the regional forest landscape and the associated forest water conservation capacity in various forest restoration scenarios. This tool has been successfully applied in the Upper Zagunao watershed, a large forested watershed in the Upper Yangtze River basin. According to the assessment, the forest water conservation capacity of the study watershed consistently increased from about 1580.76 t/hm2 in 2010 to a projected 2014.34 t/hm2 by natural restoration, and 2124.18 t/hm2 by artificial restoration by 2030. The artificial restoration measures yield a better effect on forest water conservation function than natural restoration. By 2030, the forest water conservation capacity of artificial restoration scenario is expected to be about 7% higher than that of natural restoration scenario. The FWAT as an efficient tool to assess the effects of forest restoration measures on regional forest water conservation capacity can provide scientific support for the design of forest restoration and management strategies worldwide.

Abstract:

A high-sulfur gas field is at trial operation, and its H2S content is up to 14%~18%. If the high-sulfur gas field was operated properly and improperly, effects of SO2 emission on regional ecological environment were analyzed. Based on the investigation of ecological environment status, the sulfur-absorption capacity of regional ecosystem was estimated, and then the ecological restoration programs were put forward, including the vegetation restoration program, the spoil ground restoration program, the ecological landscape reconstruction program and soil protection measures. This may offer experience for development and management of other similar gas fields.

Full text

Abstract:

The Hammerhead Delta—deepwater fold-thrust belt is located in the Ceduna Sub-basin of the Bight Basin, offshore southern Australia. It is a short lived gravity gliding system, Late Santonian-Maastrichtian in age. It exhibits a distinctive spoon shape in cross-section and detaches on a master horizon above Santonian marine shales of the Tiger Supersequence. Here, we have interpreted a large seismic dataset—including the recently acquired regional two-dimensional seismic dataset provided by Ion Geophysical—to constrain the regional structural geometry of the Hammerhead Delta—deepwater fold-thrust belt. Two structural restorations were completed to quantify the amount of extension and shortening in the system. These restorations were: a two-dimensional kinematic restoration, using 2D MOVE; and a two-dimensional geomechanical restoration, using Dynel 2D. By comparing results from the two techniques we demonstrate that the amount of observed extension in the delta top is nearly balanced by the shortening in the delta toe. The near balance (< 2 % excess extension) of the system is a unique result. Other passive margin systems demonstrate larger amounts of extension compared to shortening, due to the regional-scale pro-gradational nature of the systems. These results suggest that the balanced geometry of the Hammerhead Delta—deepwater fold-thrust belt is consistent with either a sudden decrease in sediment supply during the upper Maastrichtian, resulting in a cessation of prograding fault activity, or a loss of extension to the underlying Cenomanian growth faults or some combination thereof. Thus, the system failed to develop into an extensive passive margin delta—deepwater fold-thrust belt.

Abstract:

The object of this research is the cities of Russia, while the subject is the dynamics of regional capitals by population size in post-Soviet period. The goal is to determine the types of dynamics and patterns of their territorial distribution. The typology considers the decline in population size in 1990s – 2010s and its subsequent restoration. In the course of research, the author processed statistical information based on population size of the cities and socioeconomic characteristics of regions of the Russian Federation. The areal approach was applied for determination of large territories with certain types of dynamics of the cities. The author is first to carry out classification of the dynamics of population size in post-Soviet Russia, highlighting the following four parts: extended restoration, incomplete restoration, stable growth, stable decline). The areas with most widespread types are defined. It is concluded that after a decline in 1990s – 2010s, in a relatively large part of regional capitals of Russia (about 42%), the population exceeded the size of 1991 by 2020. The dynamics of population size of regional capitals of national entities looks more favorable than the dynamics of regional capitals of the counties. A large monolith area of incomplete type of restoration covers the majority of Volga Region, Central Non-Black Earth area, part of Central Black Earth area and Northeastern European Russia. The type of extended restoration has two main monolith areas, one of which covers a part of Central Black Earth area and South-West, while another – the majority of Ural and Western Siberia, and a part of Eastern Siberia. Socioeconomic characteristics of the region, which reflect the level of its development and well-being, have correlational ties with dynamics of a regional capital, but do not fully explain the origin of areas of particular type of dynamics.

Abstract:

Abstract The structure and function of oak Quercus spp. savanna ecosystems in the North American Midwest were originally maintained by an active disturbance regime (often fire). Subsequent reductions in the frequency of disturbance after European settlement have facilitated rapid, regional conversion of these ecosystems to more closed-canopy forest. Hence, regional-scale management strategies are now needed to restore critical spatial gradients of light, temperature, soil moisture, and soil organic matter for recovery and sustenance of the unique mosaic of understory grass and forb species assemblages that define oak savannas. Tree species composition, distribution, mortality, basal area, and canopy cover are important forest structural parameters that are intrinsically linked to oak savanna restoration ecology. In this benchmark study, we seek to determine whether Landsat-based monitoring protocols can be developed as a tool to guide and monitor regional-scale restoration and management efforts. Using the Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge in central Minnesota as a test case, ground-based forest-structure data were collected and used with multitemporal Landsat sensor data and iterative exclusion partial least-squares regression to calibrate six predictive overstory structure models. Model calibrations produced moderate- to high-accuracy results with respective adjusted coefficient of determination and root mean-squared error values as follows: 0.859, 9.3% (canopy cover); 0.855, 2.95 m2 ha−1 (total basal area); 0.741, 11.6% (red oaks relative basal area); 0.781, 11.9% (bur oak relative basal area); 0.861, 3.20 m2 ha−1 (living oak basal area); and 0.833, 9.1% (dead oak relative basal area). We used the resulting structure models for the Sherburne test site to demonstrate how these data could be applied to help managers prioritize areas within management zones for restorative treatments. Although our Sherburne oak savanna test ecosystem is small (12,424 ha) compared with the size of a full Landsat scene (3.4 million ha), resulting structure models can be extended to the whole Landsat scene, which demonstrates how such modeling protocols can be used for repeated (e.g., annual to decadal), regional-scale analysis and assessment to improve management, planning, and implementation of oak savanna restoration efforts elsewhere.

Abstract:

This essay documents the research of restoration and modifications to Mies van der Rohe’s masterwork, Crown Hall, the heart of the Chicago campus of the Illinois Institute of Technology. Restoration was necessitated by 5 decades of use during which the building had fallen into major disrepair. During the restoration, practical and philosophical issues arose from the building’s landmark designation by regional and national authorities. The essay describes the forensic research that preceded design, investigation and selection of alternate materials modifications to the building envelope. This includes a detailed description of modifications balancing original materials and systems with current codes. The essay concludes by placing the restoration of Crown Hall in the larger context of preservation of modern buildings and the threat to these works which, unlike Crown Hall, are rarely protected by landmark designation.

To measure the carbon exchange of two different plant communities in typical steppe, we used dynamic chamber method improved from static chamber method, and compared it with the regional eddy-covariance method. Results showed that: 1) Biomass of plant community with enclosed restoration was higher than that with free grazing; 2) After 6 years enclosed restoration, the plant community had become a CO2 sink though the region was still a CO2 source while the free grazing plant community had turned into a CO2 source in contrast with its regional CO2 sink, and 3) Net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of enclosed restoration plant community was significantly higher than that of typical steppe.

Abstract:

In china, many mines lie around cities, lakes or scenic spots, which have important effects on regional landscape. Recently, most research of mine’s ecological restoration focuses on geological hazards prevention, soil improvement, vegetation restoration, heavy metal pollution etc. With the increasement of environment protection consciousness, restoration and construction of mine eco-environment has been an important part of eco-environment management. Therefore, it is significant to research mine’s ecological restoration from the aspect of landscape. This paper will take Daye Iron mine ecological restoration as an example to discuss landscape design in mine’s ecological environment restoration from the aspects of mine landscape elements, methods of landscape restoration, in order to provide scientific suggestion for mining ecological restoration.

Abstract:

The Loess Plateau is a severely eroded and very venerable area in the northwestern China. Large scale vegetation restoration has been conducted in this region during the recent decades, its effect on the regional ecohydrology is under concern. In this study, long term satellite and derived data were used to analyze regional hydrological condition at the major part of the Loess Plateau (35°-37°N and 105°-110° E). The results indicate that there was an increase in the regional normalized difference vegetation index, evapotranspiration, rainfall intensity, soil water storage (surface 1m layer) and runoff. It was also observed that the total annual precipitation did not change significantly.The possible mechanisms may be related to the complicated processes of vegetation on ecohydrology. Our results and approach may be useful to evaluate the benefits of ecological restoration and further vegetation restoration at the Loess Plateau and other regions.

Abstract:

The Tohoku earthquake, which occurred on March 11, 2011, caused water-supply outages to 2.2 million households in 187 cities and towns. This earthquake impacted on natural and social events, adversely affecting the water-supply system. For instance, there were long-term disruptions of regional water supplies, long-term electric power outages, extensive liquefaction damage, and damage caused by the tsunami. These multiple factors made the damage pattern complex, and water-supply restoration was delayed even though seismic ground motion was moderate. This study attempts to elucidate the factors that caused water-supply restoration to be delayed following the earthquake and to measure the earthquake impact on water-supply outages in terms of restoration time and the households affected by the water-supply outage. As a result, the long restoration time for the water supply following the Tohoku earthquake could be explained by a combination of factors, including restoration time for electric power and regional water supplies and pipeline repair in liquefaction areas, in addition to time for pipeline repair following past earthquakes. Pipeline repair required twice the time compared to past earthquakes.

Full text

Abstract:

Recent scholarship on the Restoration period in Italy (1815–60) has put the accent on regional diversity and on particular developments within the different pre-unification states. In particular, recent studies on the Kingdom of Sardinia have added much to our view of the Piedmontese nobility's peculiar character and ability to maintain its identity through time. Equally, detailed studies of the economy of nineteenth-century Tuscany have emphasized the importance of banking and silk manufacturing, whilst studies of governmental policies in the Papal State have shed new light over a particular administrative monarchy's attempt at pursuing a policy of reconciliation between modernization and conservatism. Whilst these studies have shown the significance of regional developments during the Restoration, other studies have argued that the process of ‘inventing’ the Italian nation-state has led to a conscious obliteration of regional administrative and juridical traditions and have shown the way to the construction of an up-to-date regional synthesis of a historical period which is much more than a simple prelude to the unification of the country.

Full text

Abstract:

Following the disputed December 2016 presidential elections in The Gambia, ECOWAS managed to “restore democracy” in the country by using the threat of force, but without any use of direct physical violence. Both the African Union and the United Nations Security Council backed ECOWAS, which also gave ECOWAS legitimacy, for what was essentially ECOWAS's policy, and indeed an African solution to African problems. Only when the scenario of military invasion became credible did the Gambian regime accept the defeat. Four main factors explain the behaviour of ECOWAS and its success: ECOWAS had a clear legal mandate to threaten the use of force in order to protect democracy in one of its member states; there was consensus that ECOWAS forces could have coped with the relatively small Gambian army; the Gambian president could not rely on friends among his regional peers or some powerful ally from outside Africa; and regional leaders such as Nigeria and Senegal made a credible commitment to the regional intervention. While the intervention was a victory for pro-democratic activist regionalism, the specific West African conditions make a diffusion of the model to other parts of Africa unlikely.

Abstract:

“Myanmar is telling Asia ‘we are coming back!’ This is the time. Watch out! We are coming back. After the SEA Games, we will host ASEAN [Association of Southeast Asian Nations]. Big things are happening in our country.” “Kyaw,” an amiable rig coordinator in his early thirties, was relaxing on the ground drinking beer with his wife, passing the time prior to Myanmar's opening men's football match of the 2013 Southeast Asian or SEA Games. Fifteen days later—after a glorious opening ceremony, a slew of gold medals, and a celebratory closing ceremony—his assessment seemed prescient. The government newspaper,The New Light of Myanmar, boasted: “With the honor of hosting the Games that returned to the country after a 44-year long wait, Myanmar successfully hosted the biggest regional sporting event.” Thailand'sNationconcurred: “The country failed to overhaul Thailand as overall winners, but its symbolic triumph as host was far more important.” “Myanmar has basked in its host status and a rare moment in the international limelight after years in isolation under military rule,” declared Agence France-Presse in a widely syndicated article. “Some local and international observers thought Myanmar could not host the SEA Games. They were wrong,” boasted triumphant presidential spokesman U Ye Htut.

Abstract:

Topicality. The newest technologies of restoration of teeth involve the use of photocomposition materials and adhesive systems, a certain role in the hardening of which is played by the characteristics of the light flux photopolymerizer. In order to minimize the number of complications after restoration, it is necessary to provide a complete solidification of adhesive systems. Goal. Clinical assessment of dental restorations made from nanophoto-composite material for the application of the adhesive system of the V generation, the application and hardening of which was carried out in different regimes. Materials and methods. 46 patients aged 19 to 40 years were examined, in which 67 lateral teeth with carious lesions of Grade I and II for Blake were restored with the use of a V-generation adhesive system using nanoproduction material. The patients examined were divided into three groups. In 15 patients in Group I, 21 tooth restorations were performed with polymerization of the adhesive system with a 600-mW / dm H2O photoconductor photoluminescence photomultizer, and 23 restoration was performed in 15 patients in Group II, using the same adhesive system with the photoconductive polymerization of light-intensity photomulpirants of constant intensity 1500 mW / cm2; in group ІІ there were 16 patients with 23 restorations, made by applying two layers of the adhesive system to the bottom and the wall of the opaque cavity of the adhesive system, each of which polimeryzuvaly's fotopolimeryzatora LED luminous flux of constant intensity 1500 mW / cm2. The state of restoration was evaluated the next day and after 6 and 12 months according to the clinical criteria of Ryge. Statistical processing was carried out using a computer program in the MS Excel XP package. Results. The following day after restoration in all restoration of teeth there were no violations. After 6 months in patients of group I, limiting inclining was violated in 2 restorations (9.5% of the number of restorations in the patients in this group), the coloration was found in 3 restorations (14.3%), increased sensitivity - in 1 restored tooth (4, 8%). There was no secondary caries and color discrepancy. In patients of the II group, the violation of the boundary alignment was established in 1 restoration (4.3% of the number of restorations in the group), the border color - also in 1 restoration (4.3%), secondary caries, sensitivity and color discrepancy not established. Patients in group III had no violations. After 12 months, in patients of Group I, the number of violations increased to 6 (28.6%), 5 restorations (23.8%) were found with the coloration on the border of the nanofococomposite, the secondary caries was detected in 2 restorations (9.5%), color discrepancy - also in 2 restorations (9.5%), there was no increased sensitivity. Patients in the group II of the regional adherence violations and cases of marginal coloration were, respectively, 3 (13.0%) and 2 (8.7%), secondary caries and color discrepancies - in one case (4.3%), there was no sensitivity. Patients in group III violations of boundary adherence of the material were established in 1 restoration (4.3%), border color - also in 1 restoration (4.3%), other violations were not detected. In group I patients, there were 15 violations in general, 7 in patients in group II, 2.1 times less; in patients of group III, there were only 3 disorders, that is, 5 times less than in group I patients. Conclusions. The number of violations of lateral teeth restoration according to clinical criteria at all times was greatest in patients in which the adhesive system of the V generation was polymerized by a light flux of a halogen photopolymerizer of low intensity. The smallest number of complications was observed in patients who, during the recovery, applied the adhesive system to two layers, each of which was irradiated with a light flux of a high-intensity constant photoconductive photoconductor. Prospects for further research. Laboratory studies on the influence of different modes of application and hardening of the adhesive system on the biophysical characteristics of the connection with hard tissue of the teeth are planned.

Abstract:

Background and Purpose: The relative contribution of each Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) region to poststroke disability likely varies across regions. Determining the relative weights of each ASPECTS region may improve patient selection for endovascular stroke therapy (EST). Methods: In the combined Solitaire Flow Restoration with the Intention for Thrombectomy (SWIFT), Solitaire Flow Restoration Thrombectomy for Acute Revascularization (STAR), and Solitaire Flow Restoration with the Intention for Thrombectomy as Primary Endovascular Treatment (SWIFT PRIME) databases, we identified patients treated with the Solitaire stent retriever. Using 24-h CT scan, a multivariate ordinal regression was used to determine the relative contribution of each ASPECTS region to clinical outcome separately in each hemisphere. The coefficients from the regression were used to create a weighted ASPECTS (wASPECTS), which was compared with the original ASPECTS to predict 90-day modified Rankin Scale disability outcomes in an independent validation cohort. Results: Among 342 patients treated with EST, the average age was 67 years, 57% were female, and the median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 17 (IQR 13–20). The median ASPECTS at presentation was 8 (IQR 7–10). The most commonly involved ASPECTS regions on 24-h CT were the lentiform nuclei (70%), insula (55%), and caudate (52%). In multivariate analysis, preservation of M6 (β = 9.7) and M4 (β = 4.4) regions in the right hemisphere was most strongly predictive of good outcome. For the left hemisphere, M6 (β = 5.5), M5 (β = 4.1), and M3 (β = 3.1) generated the greatest parameter estimates, though they did not reach statistical significance. A wASPECTS incorporating all 20 parameter estimates resulted in improved discrimination against the original ASPECTS in the independent cohort (C-statistic 0.78 vs. 0.67, right hemisphere). Conclusions: For both right and left hemisphere, preservation of the high cortical regions was more strongly associated with improved outcomes compared to the deep regions. Our findings support taking into consideration the location and relative weightings of the involved ASPECTS regions when evaluating a patient for EST.

Abstract:

The source region of the Yellow River is facing with problems of local ecosystem degradation and reduction of water conservation function, and the ecological environment in the source region of the Yellow River is fragile. Mining development is one of the key factors affecting the ecological environment in the source region of the Yellow River. Based on the high-resolution remote sensing satellite data of 2015 and 2018, this paper carried out the monitoring of the current situation and dynamic changes of the mine environment in the source region. The results show that the main mine environmental problems, caused by mining development, in the source region are land excavation and land occupation, and the growth rate is pretty fast. At present, the recovery rate of mines is low, only 25.24%. According to the present situation of mining environment, regional physical geography and other factors, the mine damaged land in the source region of the Yellow River is divided into three types: the natural restoration areas, the general restoration areas and the key restoration areas. The ecological restoration of mines in the source region should adhere to the strategy of taking measures according to local conditions, and offer specific ecological restoration proposals for each type of areas. The ecological restoration of mines in the source region should focus on water conservation, strengthen the restoration of stocking mine damaged land, study the permitting mechanism of mining activities, and reinforce the function of regional ecological protection.

Abstract:

Abstract. The general relationships between vegetation and water yield under different climatic regimes are well established at a small watershed scale in the past century. However, applying the basic theories to evaluate the regional effects of land cover change on water resources has been rarely done due to the complex interactions of vegetation and climatic variability and hydrologic processes at the large scale. The objective of this study was to explore ways to examine the spatial and temporal effects of a large ecological restoration project on water yield across the Loess Plateau region in Northern China. We estimated annual water yield as the difference between precipitation input and modeled actual evapotranspiration (ET) output. We constructed a monthly ET model using published eddy flux ET measurements, ET estimates derived from local watershed streamflow data. We validated the ET models at a watershed and regional levels. The model was then applied to examine regional water yield under land cover change and climatic variability during the implementation of the Grain-for-Green (GFG) project during 1999–2007. We found that water yield in 38% of the Loess Plateau area as a whole might have decreased (1–48 mm yr−1) as a result of land cover change alone. However, combined with climatic variability, 37% of the study area might have seen a decrease in water yield with a range of 1–54 mm yr−1, and 35% of the study area might have seen an increase with a range of 1–10 mm yr−1. Across the study region, climate variability masked or strengthened the water yield response to vegetation restoration. The absolute annual water yield change due to vegetation restoration varied with precipitation regimes with the highest in wet years, but the relative water yield changes were most pronounced in dry years. When compared to findings at the plot or catchment-scale, this study suggested that regional hydrologic effects of vegetation restoration practices had a rather complex pattern due to both spatial differences in climatic regimes and vegetation response. We concluded that the effects of land cover change associated with ecological restoration varied greatly over time and space and were strongly influenced by climatic variability in the arid region. The current regional vegetation restoration projects have variable effects on local water resources across the region. Land management planning must consider the influences of spatial climate variability and long-term climate change on water yield to be more effective and achieve environmental sustainability.

Abstract:

Abstract Restoration of rich fens is commonly attempted through local-scale measures, such as removal of sod or blockage of ditches. However, regional-scale restoration measures, that aim to re-establish the original hydrology in which rich fens developed, might have a more long-lasting effect. We investigated the effect of local- and regional-scale restoration measures on a vulnerable rich fen in the Naardermeer nature reserve in the Netherlands. We compared water quality and vegetation composition of the fen before and after the restoration measures, almost 30 years apart. Overall rich fen species increased and although this indicates the desired increased supply of fresh mineral-rich groundwater to the fen, continued succession towards poor fen vegetation has not been prevented in the entire fen. Despite sod layer removal, we observed an increase in a Polytrichum-dominated vegetation in patches that are primarily fed by rainwater. Our findings confirm results from a previous study which showed that brackish palaeo-groundwater is still contributing substantially to the water balance of the fen, especially in periods of precipitation deficit. We conclude that the local- and regional-scale restoration measures have been successful in increasing the abundance of rich fen species in parts of the fen. However, considering the pressures of climate change and high atmospheric N-deposition on the fen, it is uncertain whether rich fen species can be sustained in quite nutrient-poor conditions in the future. Therefore, there is a need for continued management that keeps the nutrient-poor and mineral-rich conditions of the fen intact.

Abstract:

Seismic response simulations of the Los Angeles water supply to a Mw 7.8 San Andreas Fault earthquake scenario are used to assess the regional aqueduct and water distribution system performance in Southern California. Aqueducts sustain significant damage, and restoration of water flow is estimated to take between 4 and 18 months. Local emergency water supplies are insufficient to match the duration of aqueduct repairs, requiring severe water rationing. System serviceability declines rapidly due to numerous pipe leaks, causing serious difficulties for firefighting. Water service restoration to all customers is projected to take several months, with restoration of pre-earthquake water demand requiring more than a year. Business interruptions from long-term water rationing affect the regional economy greater than previously anticipated. Results from this scenario show how critical it is for all water agencies to prepare for a large-magnitude San Andreas earthquake.

Abstract:

Subject. Ceramic-metal prostheses are distinguished by high wear resistance, resistance to deformation, and tight fit to the gums. However, there are relatively large differences in determining the success / survival of cobalt chromium based restorations. The article presents the results of a study of cobalt-chromium fixed dentures. Objectives — evaluate the effectiveness of cobalt-chromium fixed dentures made using the direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) technique. Material and methods. 32 patients (mean age 41.8 ± 2.46 years) were found to have 54 fixed cobalt-chromium fixed bridges made using direct laser sintering of metals. Dentures were evaluated between 6, 12, 24, 36 months according to G. Ryge criteria. The survival rate of restorations is calculated according to Kaplan-Meyer. Results. Assessment of fixed prostheses revealed the absence of criteria C and D in all 3 categories. A comparative analysis of prostheses showed no change in the period 6, 12, 24 months. After 36 months, chips that did not violate the function of the prosthesis were revealed in 5.5 % of cases, visible signs of a cleft in the category of “marginal adaptation” in 1.8 % of cases, edge discoloration of the surface in 3.7 % of cases. Radiographically, 1 patient showed signs of incipient proximal caries and periapical changes, respectively. During the study period of 6-24 months. survival rate was 1.0. The survival of the restoration over a 3-year period was 88.9 %. Conclusion. The frequency of cleavage was 5.5 %, which is comparable to the usual performance of ceramic-metal restorations. The visible signs of a cleft in the regional adaptation was 1.8 %, and the regional color mismatch was 3.7 %. 1.8 % of restoration was detected. Signs of incipient proximal caries were 1.8 %, periapical changes — 1.8 %. Survival was 88.9 %.

Abstract:

In the Midwestern United States, there is a strong management impetus toward reforestation to replace trees lost to due to tree mortality and to establish forests on previously cleared properties. Here, we describe a public outreach and volunteer effort that aimed to generate positive, community-engaged restoration outcomes and report on a practical experiment involving seed handling. We obtained tree seeds that were donated by members of the community to local land managers. We evaluated the size of the seeds collected and tested the influence of common stratification media (none, sand and vermiculite) and seed size on germination success of three tree genera involved in restoration efforts: Quercus, Carya and Juglans (oak, hickory and walnut). We found a species-specific effect of media on germination, such that Carya and Quercus showed little response to their stratification media, but Juglans had higher germination rates when stratified with vermiculite. Further, all genera of seeds germinated faster when stratified with either media than without. Thus, we suggest stratifying these seeds with media to promote germination success. We also tested for seed size as a predictor of mortality during stratification, following the logic that a size-based selection criterion might save time and space during stratification. We found species-specific impacts of seed size on germination, but relationships were highly variable, and we suggest avoiding screening seeds based on their size. In addition to these scientific results, we describe the broader forest restoration project, which may be a useful model for engaging the community in restoration efforts.
