Abstract

The population of Monrovia is increasing accompanied by rapid urbanization. Due to rapid urbanization, economic development, higher living standards, and changes in consumption patterns and lifestyle, the generation rate of waste has increased. Mismanagement of solid waste tends to hinder any progress toward environmental sustainability. This study endeavored to determine Improper Solid Waste Management at the Duala Market, Monrovia-Liberia examines the connection between population growth, economic development, and the rise in waste production. The study evaluated behavioral factors on a qualitative and quantitative level, including knowledge, attitude, and practices of solid waste management, stakeholder collaboration, and obstacles to sustainable waste management in Monrovia. To display the various socioeconomic groups in the city, households were chosen at random (simple and stratified). The key findings revealed socio-demographic (70%) Waste generated are inadequately disposed of by female, as a result of the large fragment of waste that is still not collected, waste is dumped and burned in the open. followed by intervention to reduce improper waste management accounts (40%) which need public awareness and factors leading to improper waste management accounts (30%), not cognizant of the waste management area. These waste management challenges have become heightened because of insufficient technology to ensure proper management and low budgetary allocations for effective waste management.

Abstract

Mangrove propagule size variation is an important factor in their survival. The main aim of this study was to determine the productivity and identify the comparison between Avicenna marina and Rhizophora mucronata. However, it is less studied about the comparison of mangrove species and their salt tolerance in terms of seedling establishment of propagules. We investigated the propagules size variation of Avicennia marina and Rhizophora mucronata from the Indus delta and were grown in the polythene bags of 5x10″ filled with silty soil from field nursery. We used salinity and nutrients treatments to propagules to identify the growth rate of mangrove species. The surveying technique was also used to collect the information of mangrove forest from local communities. We detected that Rhizophora mucronata had a higher productivity rate due to the given concentration of 50% sea water. While the Avicennia marina showed a lower decline ratios growth at 25% salinity level with further increases in salinity. Using diffusion porometers and infrared gas analyzers (IRGAs), we revealed that stomatal conductance was higher in Rhizophora mucronata, followed by Avicennia marina. Moreover, our outcomes showed a higher Sodium and chloride ions with the increase in salinity and also demonstrated a higher accumulation in Avicennia marina. Overall, its was found that Avicennia marina is the most salt resistant species and it’s a dominated species in littoral forest. Our outcomes can help us to better understand the green infrastructure design of mangroves, suggesting that selecting multiple techniques ensure many post-tsunami restoration initiatives are encountering problems.

Abstract

Thermization is a preheating procedure in which milk is heated at low temperatures for a brief time prior to further processing. It is often used in the dairy processing industry to make a variety of products, including pasteurized milk, milk powder, and cheese. Eliminating psychrophilic bacteria, avoiding milk spoiling, and halting the changes generated by lipase and protease enzymes are the objectives of this method. Despite the fact that thermization enhances the shelf life of milk, it may also result in sensory changes and the germination of B. cereus spores. The goal of the thermization method is to prepare milk for the upcoming processing stage, and the temperature and length of the process might vary. Thermization does not affect the flavor of milk or dairy products such as yogurt, but it may enhance the quality of cheese by decreasing the occurrence of stale and rancid flavors. The process may be carried out in a plate heat exchanger or as a pre-pasteurization treatment for raw milk to protect milk quality during lengthy storage in insulated silos.

Abstract

Indus delta with its coastal zones is the most significant coastal environment in Pakistan for mangroves and associated ecosystems. Mangrove forests are important components for maintenance of ecosystems in severe environments. The purpose of the study is to assess the mangrove species' tolerance to salinity. Aegiceras corniculatum and Ceriops tagal (C. tagal) propagules were grown in pots with sandy soil and subirrigated with 25, and 50% nitrogen-fortified saltwater for this research. The propagules were procured from the Indus delta. We raised seedlings for six months as an experiment. Aegiceras corniculatum species behaved moderately in the greenhouse, whereas Ceriops tagal's growth maximum at a salinity of 50% seawater and declined as the salinity increased. Furthermore, Ceriops tagal a non-secretor, accumulated more sodium and chloride ions while severely restricting the availability of other ions. This species might therefore be used to repair intertidal ecosystems, which frequently get freshwater. During a six-month the experimental cultivation period, and measurements were taken of the seedlings' length, weight at planting, and number of leaves. Maximum growth was observed in 50% seawater, and as the salinity increased, it became worse. Three times a week, fresh water was provided to wash away the excess salt. It has been discovered that medium and large-sized propagules function better in a greenhouse environment than small-sized ones. In order for plant seeds to successfully reproduce, the environmental conditions in which they disseminate and settle must be suitable for them. For establishment and dissemination inside the greenhouse environment, the propagules of viviparous mangrove species appear optimal.

Abstract

Charcoal remains the main energy cooking source for urban dwellers in Uganda. The Shea Nut tree produces quality charcoal which is efficient and locally made. Therefore, it is facing increasing threats from the local communities so as to meet the mushrooming demand. The study analyses the state of the Shea Nut tree, drivers of charcoal production, predict Shea Nut tree vegetation coverage, and establish mechanisms for sustainable utilization and conservation of the Shea Nut trees in Kapelebyong District. Landsat images were classified using likelihood classification in ArcGIS and interviews were conducted whilst geospatial, Stata, and Nvivo tools were used for analysis. The findings reflect a sharp declining trend in the coverage of the shea Nut trees by 2.3% and 6% from 2002-2012 and 2012-2022 respectively. The major drivers include high demand from urban areas, the need for income, and unemployment. As a result, it is predicted that by 2032, the coverage will have reduced to only 713 hectares (7.3%) from 1277 hectares (10.6%) in 2022. Therefore, charcoal production with other land uses has greatly resulted in Shea Nut tree deterioration. The study recommends the use of alternative energy sources, the provision of alternative income-generating activities for the local communities, Government of Uganda through NFA needs to enforce the ways through which Shea Nut trees are managed and utilized in order to minimize illegal cutting.

Abstract

Suriname is the smallest South American nation with a low-lying coastal plain that is vulnerable to inundation from the Atlantic Ocean and inland rivers, as well as pluvial flooding primarily due to rainfall. Paramaribo, the capital of Suriname, has the highest population density, and its demographics extend into the surrounding districts of Wanica and Commewijne. Suriname has experienced flood disasters almost annually, which has exacerbated in recent years, posing a significant socioeconomic challenge. The country must balance the need for flood disaster adaptation and climate resilience with the potential impact on its resources and well-being of settlement areas. Policymakers and other stakeholders are working to address environmental impacts on the coast, but there is still a need for a comprehensive approach to monitor and manage flood impacts. This research has three objectives. The first is to analyze flood frequency events from 2021 to 2023 using multi-temporal satellite image processing from Sentinel-1 SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar). The second is to generate a Coastal Flood Vulnerability Index (CFVI) for floods using a geospatial multi-criteria analysis approach based on exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity components. The third objective is to assess the mitigation strategy for floods in settlement areas based on an integrated analysis of CFVI and stakeholder perception. The research methodology uses a multi-criteria analysis regarding settlement areas and ranking each component by expert opinion in an equation derived from Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessment report at district level. The CFVI indices rely on secondary data acquisition from national and global datasets or referenced works. Interviews were conducted to better understand the stakeholder’s perspectives that are at a strategic or governing level, and to evaluate the existence of flood early-warning and other adaptation capabilities. A flood mitigation strategy is then suggested for the most vulnerable district by CFVI score.
