Abstract:
As in many other African countries, wood is the most important source of energy for the rural and urban populations of Togo. Traditional attitudes towards trees and prohibitive laws explain why trees are not planted “spontaneously” by local communities even though they are facing serious woodfuel shortage problems. Promotion of tree planting has recently been taken up by government agencies and foreign funded projects. Most of them try to get local communities to plant trees, but their efforts are not always very successful. The reasons are manyfold: - the lack of tradition where tree planting

The climate sensitivity of radial growth in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) was analyzed within a narrow valley in the Swabian Alb (southwestern Germany). We collected stem discs from three aspects (NE, NW and SW) of trees belonging to different social classes. Common climatic factors limiting growth across the valley were identified using a principal component analysis (PCA). Further, we performed hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), redundancy analysis (RDA) and bootstrapped correlation analysis to reveal differences in chronologies and climate-growth relationships between aspect and soc

Abstract:
AbstractAgroforestry practices in cocoa cultivation have historical roots going back to the Mayan sacred groves in Mesoamerica. Today, agroforestry cocoa, i.e., the integration of shade trees, plants and crops in cocoa systems, is promoted as a climate smart practice by public and private institutions. Shaded cocoa can sustain or even increase cocoa yields and the agroforestry systems may provide additional output for household consumption and sale as well as improve the microclimate and soil conditions on the farm. Despite these promising features, cocoa agroforestry systems are far from the norm in producing countries like Ghana. Based on discussions with groups of farmers across the Ghanaian cocoa belt, this chapter shows that while farmers are well aware of the positive aspects of shaded cocoa systems, traditional cocoa practices, village chiefs’ command of local land uses, land and tree tenure systems, alternative land uses and inability to access inputs and extension services limit the adoption and constrain the management of shade trees. As still more policies are developed to improve the Ghanaian cocoa sector, policymakers must consider these often overlooked social and institutional factors that prevent cocoa farmers from engaging in longer-term agroforestry practices and thereby benefiting from the opportunities they present.

Full text
Abstract:
AbstractArgument mining usually operates on short, decontextualized argumentative units such as main and subordinate clauses, or full sentences as proxies for arguments. Argumentation in digital media environments, however, is embedded in larger contexts. Especially on social media platforms, argumentation unfolds in dialog threads or tree structures where users interact with each other. To reveal patterns of such interactions, we transform 2.5 million tweets from 38k German Twitter conversations concerning nuclear energy from 2017, 2019, and 2021 into an abstract representation encoding their stance, and aspects. We then apply Sequential Pattern Mining, a common method for finding patterns in large databases, and explore its capabilities to investigate typical argumentation schemes in user debates. The approach reveals distinct patterns of support and attack relations between pro and contra arguments about nuclear energy in conversational threads when comparing different time slices of our corpus. For example, we are seeing an increasing relevance of the climate aspect in attacks on anti-nuclear arguments. However, the pro arguments are increasingly being countered by cost aspects. Analyzing this diachronic change of patterns allows us to describe the discursive processes of argumentation on a macro level that drive the slow but steady transformation of a society’s social and political convictions.

Abstract:
In order to investigate issues somehow neglected, the paper tries to carefully outline both the economic and institutional aspect and the origins and development of the Florentine anti-fascist thought. Much has been written about Carlo Rosselli's liberal socialism; still interpretations are often based more on subjective views than on in-depth studies, and this is especially true when it is the current political situation which tries to interpret Rosselli’s thought. Several scholars approached Carlo Rosselli’s thought assuming that the adjective ‘liberal’ can be translated as ‘liberalistic’, that the noun ‘socialist’ can be replaced with ‘welfare’ (of a moderate sort in addition), and finally that the State he theorized proves little interventionist in social and economic life; but this does not seem to be a correct interpretative key.

The following paper tries to show the different aspects of Fichte’s conception of labour. First of all, labour means the activity of appropriation through which man makes the world his own property. It is also a fundamental right of man as a free subject and as a citizen of the State. Finally it is necessary for man’s self-development and education. In this sense, Fichte stresses the importance of multiplying labour’s productivity, in order to free a large amount of time to be dedicated to the intellectual and creative activities of man’s spirit. That implies that all the members of society have to give their contribution to the well-being of their community and that the social wealth has to be equally distributed among all members of the State.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract As global challenges like forest degradation, biodiversity loss, and fragmentation intensify, conservation and restoration of forest ecosystems have become important challenges of our time. Sustainable restoration efforts extend beyond tree planting. However, they require clear objectives aligned with consideration of ecological and social resilience. Forest restoration planning benefits from the integration of spatial tools and connectivity measures, ensuring ecosystem stability, species mobility, and adaptability to climate change. Forest landscape restoration is a framework of diverse planned interventions to support biodiversity and the resilience of the forest ecosystem, taking integration into a wider landscape into account. In shifting the focus from a small-scale stand-specific to a landscape-wide perspective, the role of ecological connectivity becomes pivotal. This chapter therefore integrates landscape ecology measures for connectivity in restoration ecology and discusses four questions influencing the planning of a restoration action, including connectivity considerations: (1) What is to be restored (defining the restoration objectives)? (2) Where should the restoration activities be focused (determining spatial and connectivity measures)? (3) How can the restoration best be implemented (applying restoration methods)? (4) How successful is the restoration (determining monitoring measures)? The choice of suitable connectivity measures and restoration methods depends strongly on the landscape and the ecological, economic, and social framework conditions. Challenges for restoring connectivity span technical, financial, biophysical, and social aspects that require collaborative stakeholder engagement and adaptive management to overcome. They also encompass species-specific restoration, invasive species management, and international cooperation for restoring or conserving connected forest ecosystems.

Abstract:
AbstractResearch on shoreline carrying capacity is of great practical significance to promote the sustainable development of shoreline. Taking into account five aspects of shoreline health, resource supply, environmental pollution, ecological service and social service, the evaluation index system of shoreline carrying capacity was systematically established. Taking the Nanjing reach of the Yangtze River as a typical case, the variation trend of shoreline carrying capacity in recent 40 years was analyzed. The Landsat satellite remote sensing images from 1984 to 2020 were collected. The classification regression tree (CART) algorithm was used to classify the land use types in the remote sensing images, and then evaluation indexes of shoreline carrying capacity were calculated. The results show that the shoreline carrying capacity of the Nanjing reach was basically stable from 1984 to 2003. With the large-scale development and utilization of the shoreline since 2003, the carrying capacity of the Nanjing reach gradually decreased and approached the warning line. Due to the implementation of restrictive measures such as “action to clear the four chaos” and “the operation of responsibility system on river/lake leaders” by Chinese government after 2018, the carrying capacity of the Nanjing reach has rebounded rapidly. With the help of Mann-Kendall (MK) mutation analysis method, the mutation point of the time series of the shoreline carrying capacity of the Nanjing reach was found to occur in 1991, 2012 and 2018. The research results can help to discover unsustainably social and economic activities, put forward the productivity layout adjustment, and guide corresponding management measures in the reach.

Abstract:
Decision trees are widely adopted in Machine Learning tasks due to their operation simplicity and interpretability aspects. However, following the decision process path taken by trees can be difficult in a complex scenario or in a case where a user has no familiarity with them. Prior research showed that converting outcomes to natural language is an accessible way to facilitate understanding for non-expert users in several tasks. More recently, there has been a growing effort to use Large Language Models (LLMs) as a tool for providing natural language texts. In this paper, we examine the proficiency of LLMs to explain decision tree predictions in simple terms through the generation of natural language explanations. By exploring different textual representations and prompt engineering strategies, we identify capabilities that strengthen LLMs as a competent explainer as well as highlight potential challenges and limitations, opening further research possibilities on natural language explanations for decision trees.

The chapter introduces the most popular and ergonomic methods for visualizing large-scale data. The authors strive to find common visual properties in relation to their historical archetypes. The discussion about a series of both technical and aesthetical issues is also included.

Abstract:
The continuous evolution of technology and industrial revolutions provides new horizons for the application of smart solutions in every aspect of human lives. At the same time, it causes new social and engineering challenges, which require appropriate methodologies and solutions to overcome them. A smart orchard is an example of an eco-cyber-physical system. Modelling of an eco-cyber-physical system is more complex than simple software development because the complexity quickly grows together with the amount of interconnected components. The difficulties come together with various fruit tree s

Resumen: En Les trois établissements humains (1945) Le Corbusier, junto con el grupo ASCORAL, describe la fábrica verde como un establecimiento industrial organizado según “una biología de las circulaciones, de la composición de los edificios y de la eficiencia”, que “reinstala de nuevo las condiciones de la naturaleza alrededor del trabajo”. Son palabras importantes, que destacan algunos de los temas cruciales del pensamiento social de principios del siglo XX y sobre los cuales Le Corbusier reflexionó para crear nuevas soluciones arquitectónicas y urbanísticas.

Abstract:
We study the complexity of equilibrium computation in discrete preference games. These games were introduced by Chierichetti, Kleinberg, and Oren (EC '13, JCSS '18) to model decision-making by agents in a social network that choose a strategy from a finite, discrete set, balancing between their intrinsic preferences for the strategies and their desire to choose a strategy that is `similar' to their neighbours. There are thus two components: a social network with the agents as vertices, and a metric space of strategies. These games are potential games, and hence pure Nash equilibria exist. Sinc

The world is increasingly urbanized and yet, even in urban areas, humans remain dependent on the ecosystem services that nature provides. This case study-exercise explores selected aspects of the dynamic between humans and urban ecology in three parts. First, we briefly discuss urban ecosystems and the context of biodiversity conservation in urban areas. Then, through a case study of the Million Trees program in New York City, we provide evidence and start a discussion about the possible benefits—as well as potential negative social, ecological, and economic consequences—of urban trees.
