Abstract

Bio-ecology research is essential to support ecosystem conservation and management, such as that conducted in the coastal forest of Tabanio, South Kalimantan. This forest has high biodiversity and serves an important function in coastal ecosystems. However, published bio-ecology research is still small and fragmentary. This research aims to conduct a comprehensive literature review on the extent of bio-ecology recording of the Tabanio coastal forest. The method used was the PRISMA model to review relevant literature. The results found 73 documents with the keyword <bio-ekologi “hutan pantai” “Tabanio” Kalimantan Selatan> and 22 documents with the keyword <bio-ecology of "coastal forest" "Tabanio" south Kalimantan> Google Scholar.  One of them was also indexed in Scopus. After reviewing, six documents were found that were published about bio-ecology. In contrast, most of them were published in the form of derivative studies, namely the development of educational tools based on local potential. Others are stored in the campus repository. Most studies examined flora biodiversity and population structure; some were fauna studies. However, although there are various related studies, more in-depth studies on ecosystem dynamics and species interactions are still needed. This further research is needed to provide the basis for more effective and sustainable conservation and ecosystem management efforts in Tabanio's coastal forests.

Abstract

This study explores the relationship between wildfires, climate change, and public health in Brazil, focusing on the impacts observed in the Amazon, Cerrado, and Pantanal biomes between 2023 and 2024. The research employs a systematic literature review and secondary data analysis, incorporating studies from the past two decades and data from recognized sources such as INPE, Fiocruz, and the Ministry of Health. Quantitative data on hospital admissions, air quality indices, and wildfire activity were cross-validated and analyzed using sensitivity techniques to ensure robustness.  The primary objective is to examine the combined effects of wildfires and atmospheric pollution on human health, with a specific focus on respiratory and cardiovascular conditions, and to propose actionable public policies to mitigate these impacts. The findings reveal a clear link between climate change-induced fires, the release of fine particulate matter (PM2.5), and significant health impacts, including a 30% rise in hospital admissions for respiratory issues and a 15% increase in cardiovascular emergencies during peak fire seasons. Particularly vulnerable groups, such as children and the elderly, were disproportionately affected, with notable increases in cases of asthma, pneumonia, and heart failure. The study also highlights the role of environmental degradation and agricultural practices in amplifying wildfire risks, worsening air quality, and intensifying public health crises. The results confirm a significant increase in pollution and health issues in the regions most affected by wildfires, emphasizing the need for air quality monitoring systems, public awareness campaigns, and stricter enforcement of environmental regulations. It concludes that the implementation of integrated and multidisciplinary policies, combining environmental preservation, healthcare readiness, and public education, is essential to address the ongoing and future impacts of climate change and wildfires on Brazilian populations.

Abstract

Forest degradation continues to occur due to the expansion of agricultural land which disrupts its fauna. One of the fauna that faces threats is earthworms, earthworms play an important role as decomposers. This study aims to address the dearth of information on the diversity and dominance of earthworms and to compare their presence in two habitats, agricultural areas, and primary forests in the Gunung Selatan Forest area, Tarakan, and their relationship to abiotic factors. Sampling was conducted on agricultural land and primary forest using hand sorting techniques on plots measuring 30x30 cm, totaling six plots. The results showed that there were two types of earthworms, namely Lumbricus terrestris and Lumbricus rubellus. Researchers found 5 individuals of Lumbricus terrestris and 2 individuals of Lumbricus rubellus on agricultural land, 11 individuals of Lumbricus terrestris, and 7 individuals of Lumbricus rubellus in primary forest. Each worm sample's length and body researchersight varied depending on its location. The study found differences in the number and shape of earthworms living in agricultural land and primary forest habitats in the Gunung Selatan Forest area of Tarakan. More earthworms researchers found in primary forest habitats than in agricultural land. The study's results prove a relationship between abiotic factors and the life of earthworms, based on the measurement of parameters; the higher the temperature, air humidity, light intensity, and soil pH, the fewer worm species are obtained. Researchers anticipate these findings to offer valuable insights for managing and conserving ecosystems.

Abstract

The Ngaju Dayak tribe in Kasongan, Katingan Regency, critically relies on traditional medicinal plants for health, including COVID-19 symptom management. Despite this reliance, crucial knowledge about these immunomodulatory plants remains largely undocumented, posing an urgent risk to their preservation and potential medical application. This study aimed to identify and document the specific plants utilized for COVID-19 treatment—before, during, and after the pandemic—detailing plant parts used, preparation methods, and cultural significance. Employing a mixed-method approach with structured interviews and snowball sampling in Kasongan, the research identified 15 plant species with therapeutic potential, including Peronema canescens, Orthosiphon stamineus, and Zingiber officinale. Leaves were the most frequently used plant part (68.5%), predominantly prepared by boiling (78.2%). Significantly, Peronema canescens emerged as the primary choice during the pandemic (70% fidelity level), while Annona muricata was prominent before and after. Peronema canescens also exhibited the highest Index of Cultural Significance (ICS) at 18. These findings highlight the dynamic ethnobotanical practices of the Ngaju Dayak tribe and underscore the urgent need for conservation and further scientific validation to leverage this traditional knowledge for broader health benefits and ensure community well-being.

Abstract

Microplastics (MP) and nanoparticles (PS-NPs) are emerging environmental contaminants of significant concern due to their adverse effects on human health. This study systematically reviews the impact of these pollutants on cellular mechanisms, with a specific focus on their association with metabolic diseases. Data were collected from various scientific publications relevant to the research topic. Research findings indicate that exposure to microplastics (MP) can result in a reduction in triglyceride and total cholesterol levels, while also disrupting insulin signaling pathways, thereby contributing to insulin resistance. Additional studies have demonstrated that exposure to nanoparticles (PS-NPs) in pregnant mice may increase the risk of metabolic disorders in their offspring. Moreover, PS-NP exposure has been shown to exacerbate type 2 diabetes by inhibiting the AKT/GSK3β pathway. Collectively, exposure to microplastics and nanoparticles has the potential to aggravate metabolic disorders and increase the risk of metabolic diseases, including diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular conditions. These findings offer valuable insights into the potential health risks associated with environmental exposure to microplastics and nanoparticles and underscore the critical importance of addressing microplastic pollution to human health.

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of different organic soil amendments on the chemical characteristics of dryland soils to enhance agricultural practices in arid areas. Employing a randomized complete block design, six treatments were administered oversix-months on acidic soils with low organic matter concentration, exemplifying typical dryland conditions in tropical areas. The treatments comprised high and moderate doses of mixed organic compounds, alongside control groups without amendments. Soil samples were analyzed pre- and post-treatment for pH, carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium concentrations. Results demonstrate that high-dose organic mixtures markedly enhanced soil pH, carbon content, and nutrient availability, particularly phosphorus and potassium, in comparison to control and lower-dose treatments. The research underscores the essential importance of suitable amendment kinds and quantities in improving soil quality and sustainability. The findings indicate that the strategic application of organic amendments can markedly enhance the chemical properties of dryland soils, hence promoting more sustainable farming operations.

Abstract

Spoilage bacteria present a considerable obstacle in the preservation of seafood items, including shrimp and fish, leading to economic losses, health hazards, and degradation of product quality. Prevalent spoilage bacteria in seafood comprise Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Staphylococcus aureus. This study seeks to assess the inhibitory potential of bacterial isolates obtained from shrimp paste against rotting spoilage bacteria. A descriptive approach was employed to assess the antibacterial activity of four bacterial isolates—designated TRS 1, TRS 2, TRS 3, and TRS 4—against Gram-positive and Gram-negative spoilage bacteria. The inhibitory effect was measured by the diameter of the clear zones surrounding the isolates. The findings indicated that isolate TRS 1 exhibited the most significant inhibition against Staphylococcus aureus (19.0 mm) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (9.5 mm), whereas isolate TRS 4 displayed the greatest inhibition against Escherichia coli (12.0 mm). The findings indicate that some bacterial isolates from shrimp paste exhibit significant antagonistic activity and may function as natural preservatives in seafood products. Additional research is required to validate bacteriocin synthesis by molecular and biochemical techniques and to assess their practical implications in seafood preservation.

Abstract

Microplastic pollution has become a significant environmental concern, with recent studies detecting microplastics in various ecosystems and natural products, including those produced by bees. This study investigates the presence, morphology, and distribution of microplastics in products of the stingless bee Heterotrigona itama—specifically honey, pollen, and propolis—collected from six meliponiculture sites within the Meratus Geopark, South Kalimantan, Indonesia. Samples were analyzed using stereomicroscopy to identify microplastic types, quantify particles, and measure sizes. The findings reveal that fibers and fragments are the predominant microplastic forms, with urban locations exhibiting higher contamination levels (approximately 309 to 318 particles per 100 ml) compared to rural areas. Notably, one rural site recorded the highest contamination level (approximately 362 particles per 100 ml), suggesting that factors beyond urbanization, such as agricultural practices and atmospheric deposition, contribute to microplastic pollution. The study underscores the role of bees as natural bioindicators for environmental monitoring and highlights the potential risks of microplastic contamination to bee health, food safety, and ecosystem sustainability. These insights are aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 12, which advocates for responsible consumption and production.
