Abstract

While workplace conflicts have been widely studied in the literature, this research provides a holistic view of the causes and effects of such, and how managers or a management can resolve the conflicts among their teams and organization through a detailed, multidimensional framework carried out on one of the biggest textile firms of Pakistan. With an initial sample of 145 respondents, 37 questionnaires were dropped because of invalid and incomplete answers; therefore, the study was carried out on 108 respondents. Conflicts are a part of human nature, but management should play an important role in dealing with these issues, as there can be enormous chances of conflicts due to a diverse workforce. Conflict also results in poor work performance and low productivity; therefore, it’s suggested to create teams or groups which may encourage a competitive culture in the organization. Additionally, a few remedies are identified, which may resolve some issues; managers must look at those techniques for a better culture.

Abstract

Globally, habitat loss, deforestation, and climate change are mostly caused by land cover changes (LCC). The amount of land covered by trees has had a major impact on global warming and climate change. Increasing the amount of land cover helps to mitigate climate change and global warming. This study aims to investigate the changes in land cover and carbon storage in Plawangan Hill, Indonesia, over four years (2009, 2013, 2017, and 2023). The study site was defined as a conservation area that has been periodically impacted both directly and indirectly by volcanic eruptions. Images from Landsat 7 and 8 were used to collect data. Additionally, land cover changes were assessed using the forest canopy density (FCD Mapper) model, which was then utilized to quantify the carbon storage of the research site. The findings demonstrated fluctuations in land cover changes between 2009 and 2023. Additionally, changes in land cover have a direct impact on changes in carbon storage. The age of the trees, type of vegetation, succession stage, and history of eruptions were the variables that were apparent to be the main causes of these changes.

Abstract

Mount Merapi National Park (TNGM) is one of the active volcanos in Indonesia. It has past volcano eruption history since 1911 up to date. Specifically, Plawangan Hill is a part of the TNGM recently designated as Geo-heritage and has experienced volcano eruption indirectly and directly. Additionally, since the Indonesian government designates Plawangan Hill as a Geological Heritage (Geo-Heritage) location, it is crucial to determine its geological features and how they relate to the development of the vegetation there as the study’s objectives. A field survey and a soil laboratory examination were conducted to obtain the data. As a result, Plawangan Hill’s DEM was classified from very low to very high classes, while the DSM was categorized from flat to very steep slopes. Further, the results demonstrated that the pH of the soil was typically somewhat acidic (5.93–6.54). While the soil’s nitrogen content was found to be low to medium, both phosphorus and potassium levels were typically very low. The carbon-nitrogen ratio was generally categorized into the medium, while the organic C ranged from low to medium (1.44% to 3.22%). The soil’s N total, K total, organic matter, carbon content, and C-N ratio increased by the erupted material age. Additionally, it was discovered that the vegetation growth was excellent in indirect (IA) and directly affected (DA) conditions, as indicated by their diameter at breast height (Dbh) and height (H). The correlation between soil characteristics and vegetation growth differed in indirectly affected (IA) and directly affected (DA) areas. As a result, the study found that volcanic materials significantly contributed to Plawangan Hill’s soil characteristics and vegetation growth. Furthermore, this study’s findings were highly beneficial because they were one of the primary explanations for why Plawangan Hill was designated a Geo-heritage site.
