Spatial Typo-morphology of Residential House in Supporting to the Resilience of the Indigenous Settlement in the Sub-urban Area, Case: Enclave Settlement in the New Town of Gading Serpong
The growth of the city of Jakarta is marked among others by the development of new towns in the surrounding areas including Tangerang. The growth of this city establishes the character of a distinctive sub-urban area emphasizing on indigenous settlement that retains its rural character. The form of pressure in terms of land acquisition and land development by new town developers concerning vacant land and indigenous settlement areas resulted on the emergence of enclave settlement. To ensure that the enclave settlement is in line with the principles of sustainable development, the phenomenon needs to be explored by focusing on the inhabitants of enclave settlement. This study is based on the question of whether the indigenous settlements of the new town area can survive and be prevailed by using certain strategies. To be able to answer the question, descriptive analysis is exploited based on the grounded method through field observation on the social life of the inhabitants implementing through the spatial arrangement of residential house at the new town of Gading Serpong area. The results revealed that spatial typo-morphology of residential house in the indigenous settlement is basically a reflection of the strong values and social ties of the inhabitants as the uppermost hierarchy of the spatial socio-culture. Therefore, it is important to emphasize that spatial typo-morphology can become significant factor in supporting the resilience of enclave settlements in responding to the development of new towns.

The significance of neighbourhood in hosting a group of dwellings units and possessing adequate communal facilities could not be overemphasized in the study of people and place relationships. There are two main objectives of this study: (i) to study the neighbourhood’s associated challenges through the size, growth, and land use distribution, and (ii) to investigate the perceived inhabitants’ activities pattern within the neighbourhood. The objectives are explored through a morphological and GIS-based land use analysis of a rural neighbourhood in South-west, Nigeria. The town is studied in three transformation phases, dating back to five decades using ArcGIS version 10.3. The 1st phase spanned between the year 1910 to 1959, while the 2nd and 3rd phases ran through the year 1960 to 1999, and year 2000 to 2015 respectively. The exploration in this study is to document the diverse neighbourhood challenges, features, and prospects, which remain uninvestigated in the case study area for the past years. The first finding revealed that some challenges needed to be resolved in a bid to meet the residents’ current basic needs. The second finding indicated that the rural settlements in Nigeria emanated from the residents’ adaptation to the environmental conditions, cum transformation through human activities. Meanwhile, the third finding established that the human settlements evolved in connection to the local socio-economic, recreation and religious virtues of the traditional marketplace (Oja). In conclusion, human historical and social influences play a significant role in ameliorating the challenges associated with the spatial developments of the settlements. The implication of the study becomes vital to the major stakeholders and professionals in the built environment on the significance of enhancing the sustainable communities in Nigeria.

Considering three- dimensional process of sustainability (physical- economical and social), the aim of conservation for making historic urban environment sustainable should be matched with these dimensions. Therefore, earlier conservation policies have progressed from a simple and restrictive concern with preservation to an increased concern for revitalization and enhancement. This means a physical revitalization may be short-lived and un-sustained. Within the process of revitalization, historic environments become the main locations of gentrification induced by urban revitalization which may involve social cost. Accordingly, this paper develops theoretical concepts on “sustainability in historic urban environment” with a particular emphasis on social issue in terms of gentrification. Also with the result derived from theoretical parts concludes that social changes through gentrification contribute to sustain the historic environments.

The typological features of university campus areas are shaped according to their locations in the city. Campuses in city centers carry great potentials for students’ cultural, intellectual and artistic activities, especially for those from faculty of architecture and design, with close relations to the city. In big metropolitan cities, it is hard to reserve land for campuses therefore they emerge as vertical settlements. On the other hand, campuses built on the periphery mainly feature horizontal planning characteristics due to availability of land. The aim of this paper is to develop an approach for measuring architecture students’ aesthetic experience of vertical and horizontal campuses in relation to sense of place theory. Recently, emerging technologies in cognitive science, such as brain imaging techniques, activity maps, sensory maps, cognitive mapping and photo-projective method etc., have enabled advanced measurement of aesthetic experience. In this exploratory research, using ‘photo-projective method’, students will be asked to interpret and draw ‘cognitive maps’ of the places that they are happy to be (defined place) or to see (landscape) on the campus. Based on students’ impressions and experiences, it will be possible to compare aesthetic experience on vertical and horizontal campus. Thus, a comprehensive approach for improving campus design according to users’ aesthetic experiences and sense of place rather than building technology, law, development and finance driven obligations will be introduced.

In 1973, French architect Jack Avizou highlighted the essence of cave houses as vernacular building types and their potentials for local tourism beyond conventional notions of architectural heritage. Upon completing restoration of cave houses in Uçhisar and transforming them to boutique hotels, he was nominated for Aga Khan Award for Architecture in 2010. On the other hand,
Aga Khan Award winner Turkish architect Turgut Cansever, had also been advising for Argos Hotel project in Uçhisar since 1996. He gave importance to the concept of "protection" and preserved vernacular identity and characteristics despite the demands of tourism sector. This paper aims to explore Avizou and Cansever’s design solutions in Uçhisar’s local context. Building / interior design elements and spatial relations in interiors will be analyzed with cluster analysis and ranked according to levels of novelty. Hence, achievement of creativity through transformation, combination and variation of original designs, will be displayed. Understanding Avizou’s and Cansever’s visions on revitalization and adaptive re-use is substantial since, their creativity shall be a source of inspiration for future sustainable tourism and building practices in local and global context.

Urban Liveability in the Context of Sustainable Development: A Perspective fr...Premier Publishers
Urbanization and quality of urban life are mutually related and however it varies geographically and regionally. With unprecedented growth of urban centres, challenge against urban development is more in terms of how to enhance quality of urban life and liveability. Making sense of and measuring urban liveability of urban places has become a crucial step in the context of sustainable development paradigm. Geographical regions depict variations in nature of urban development and consequently level of urban liveability. The coastal regain of West Bengal faces unusual challenges caused by increasing urbanization, uncontrolled growth, and expansion of economic activities like tourism and changing environmental quality. The present study offers a perspective on urban liveability of urban places located in coastal region comprising of Purba Medinipur and South 24 Parganas districts. The study uses the liveability standards covering four major pillars- institutional, social, economic and physical and their indicators. This leads to develop a City Liveability Index to rank urban places of the region, higher the index values better the urban liveability. The data for the purpose is collected from various secondary sources. Study finds that the eastern coastal region of the country covering state of West Bengal depicts variations in index of liveability determined by physical, economic, social and institutional indicators.

Addressing a gap in literature, this research provides empirical insights into residents' perspectives within Kaduna Metropolis, contributing to academic discourse and practical urban development approaches.
Investigation for Spatial and Physical Factors of Open Areas in Residential ...IJMER
Residential open area provides light, internal spaces brightness and natural ventilation as
well as is considered as an opportunity of more relation with nature and a place for social interactions.
It’s an opportunity to promote performance of internal space and relationship to external one
regarding limitations of internal space of residential units. Therefore, revision and recognition of status
quo of open area predisposes more conscious design for open areas and landscapes of residential
areas. Since open areas in residential complexes (RCs) can respond crucial demands of users and play
a major role creating desirable residential area. Therefore, we practiced here to evaluate spatial and
Physical factors for open areas in ApadanaRCin order to improve life quality within RCs. The method
for this paper is survey and is of explanatory- analysis kind. 325 resident household were randomly
sampled. Results were analyzed using descriptive and perceptive statistics. SPSS 18.0 was applied to all
analyses. Data analyses indicated that 50% of studied units evaluated the quality of open area as
moderate, 48.8% desirable and 0.6% undesirable in Apadana RCs. Finally, certain suggestions have
been offered in order to expand these areas qualitatively and quantitatively emphasizing spatial and
Physical factors and relationship between internal and external areas.

Urban Liveability in the Context of Sustainable Development: A Perspective fr...Premier Publishers
Urbanization and quality of urban life are mutually related and however it varies geographically and regionally. With unprecedented growth of urban centres, challenge against urban development is more in terms of how to enhance quality of urban life and liveability. Making sense of and measuring urban liveability of urban places has become a crucial step in the context of sustainable development paradigm. Geographical regions depict variations in nature of urban development and consequently level of urban liveability. The coastal regain of West Bengal faces unusual challenges caused by increasing urbanization, uncontrolled growth, and expansion of economic activities like tourism and changing environmental quality. The present study offers a perspective on urban liveability of urban places located in coastal region comprising of Purba Medinipur and South 24 Parganas districts. The study uses the liveability standards covering four major pillars- institutional, social, economic and physical and their indicators. This leads to develop a City Liveability Index to rank urban places of the region, higher the index values better the urban liveability. The data for the purpose is collected from various secondary sources. Study finds that the eastern coastal region of the country covering state of West Bengal depicts variations in index of liveability determined by physical, economic, social and institutional indicators.

Addressing a gap in literature, this research provides empirical insights into residents' perspectives within Kaduna Metropolis, contributing to academic discourse and practical urban development approaches.
Investigation for Spatial and Physical Factors of Open Areas in Residential ...IJMER
Residential open area provides light, internal spaces brightness and natural ventilation as
well as is considered as an opportunity of more relation with nature and a place for social interactions.
It’s an opportunity to promote performance of internal space and relationship to external one
regarding limitations of internal space of residential units. Therefore, revision and recognition of status
quo of open area predisposes more conscious design for open areas and landscapes of residential
areas. Since open areas in residential complexes (RCs) can respond crucial demands of users and play
a major role creating desirable residential area. Therefore, we practiced here to evaluate spatial and
Physical factors for open areas in ApadanaRCin order to improve life quality within RCs. The method
for this paper is survey and is of explanatory- analysis kind. 325 resident household were randomly
sampled. Results were analyzed using descriptive and perceptive statistics. SPSS 18.0 was applied to all
analyses. Data analyses indicated that 50% of studied units evaluated the quality of open area as
moderate, 48.8% desirable and 0.6% undesirable in Apadana RCs. Finally, certain suggestions have
been offered in order to expand these areas qualitatively and quantitatively emphasizing spatial and
Physical factors and relationship between internal and external areas.

Urban Form and Land use Transformations in the High Mountain Town of Martadi ...Premier Publishers
Martadi, a small high mountain town has been transforming into a semi-urban position in recent years. This paper examines the form and land-use transformations by analyzing existing conditions and their potential expansion by collecting primary and secondary data through field observation and consultations/interactions with locals and analyzing the historical images/maps of the area. This paper shows that the high mountain town grew spatially and functionally outward from its core area transforming its morphology. Increasing population, increasing constructional activities, and infrastructure development in pace with urbanization are the reasons to get the transformations of such towns. With increasing local and regional connectivity, increasing trend of new building construction and reshaping of traditional buildings into modern ones, the rapid outward expansion of the town, increasing road networks and other facilities may lead to urban transformation of such high mountain towns in the future. Several modern constructions have been observed and Martadi is becoming one of the centers of economic activities in the region. Rapid conversion of agriculture, barren, and bushland into residential and the construction of infrastructure found high to make the urban transformation. The town can grow further in the future through intervention planning policies and guidelines.
Sustainable Urban Development: Bioregionalistic Vision for Small TownsIEREK Press
Cities and towns are the social constructs in regional settings. They physically manifest and exist as power centres through various layers of culture, economy, politics, and religion. There was a symbiotic relationship between the ‘setting’ and the ‘construct’ in the past. With time and advent of technology, haphazard developments led to degradation of ecological systems and have become a confronted affair. Global warming, its adverse effects and the constant references to the words ‘sustainability’ and ‘resilience’ pose questions on the existing planning models. Small towns experiencing a tremendous pressure of urbanisation and rich in natural resources, coherence and identity are fast changing. An indispensable change in the planning models is necessary to mitigate this existential crisis and condition the emerging urbanism in small towns sustainably. This paper unearths the role and possibilities of bioregional planning as a sustainable urban development paradigm and suggests few indicative parameters forenvisioning bioregionalism in small towns.
Strategies for Development of Peri Urban Areas in a Developing Country A Case...ijtsrd
The world is experiencing a new phenomena – peri urbanism. As the population is increasing and cities are infrastructurally upgraded, there has been a gradual shift of the urban population from the more developed regions to the less developed ones, aimed at availing free open spaces to live, grow and setting up new communities. This movement of urban population in large numbers has led to formation of peri urban spaces. With no such boundary to define the peri urban spaces, these areas are the outskirts of the urban centres which are to be explored. A detailed understanding about the dynamics of urbanisation is necessary for coping with the negative effects poised by urban sprawling on the peri urban areas. Being designated as one of the first smart city of India, Bhubaneswar city is experiencing formation of urban sprawls around the major urban nodes. In order to further examine the need for policy formulation, a detailed study has been done to understand the demographic, economic and social profile of the inhabitants residing within the fringe areas of Bhubaneswar. The emperical approach of the paper is based on the study of the infrastructure and development issues of the area using remote sensing and GIS techniques. The final findings of the study includes the issues, problems and recommendations to be applicable for a planned and controlled development in the peri urban areas of Bhubaneswar.

Historical cities due to its magnificent building in its context have tremendous influence on formation of city identity, which is created through the interaction of natural, social and built elements. Unfortunately modernization after the industrial revolution couldn’t adapt itself to vernacular area, owe to the fact that cities began to lose their identity and sense of belonging to the environment. New technology of construction lets the cities to expand itself outside, but in this transformation, some factors which have an influence on the identity of the city have been forgotten. In this research it is aimed to analysis Physical and social factors which are causing the loss of identity in the city of Famagusta (Gazimagusa). Both qualitative and qualitative methods have been used in this research and the adopted techniques are personal observation, sketches, and comparing new development part of the city with traditional part. The research will try to answer the question of why urban sprawl could not maintain the identity of the city of Gazimagusa?).

Investigation and evaluation of the role of urban regeneration in the vitalit...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT : Today, urban spaces do not meet the needs of space users and do not have environmental
qualities. One of the important and constructive qualities of responsive spaces is their vitality and dynamism.
Improving the quality of urban spaces and creating dynamic urban spaces is one of the most important results of
urban regeneration. Using the urban regeneration approach, while respecting the values of the past, paying
attention to the needs of today's life and using this approach help restore dynamism and vitality in the ancient
urban fabric. Zargandeh neighborhood, which is a clear example of urban self-motivation neighborhoods, has
grown in the process of further development as a rural-urban context. Existence of decay has also caused high
risk against natural disasters, traffic and transportation problems, relief work, loss of identity and neighborhood
culture, and so on. Therefore, the aim of this study is to study the role of urban regeneration in creating a
dynamic and lively atmosphere in Zargandeh neighborhood of District 3 of Tehran. The present study was of
analytical-combinational type (combination of quantitative and qualitative analytical methods) and data
collection was done using documentary and survey methods and also information and data analysis was done
using SWOT and QSPM methods. Criteria and sub-criteria of the research have been designed in the form of a
qualitative questionnaire and have been provided to experts, city officials and citizens of the target area.
Strategies developed in this research have been presented according to the criteria of urban dynamism and
vitality in Zargandeh neighborhood of Tehran, in terms of economic, physical-infrastructural and environmental
dimensions. Finally, the proposed alternatives have been proposed according to the strategies. The results of this
study can have several applications for each of the groups involved, such as consultants, contractors, employers
and especially its stakeholders.

The Statutory Interpretation of Renewable Energy Based on Syllogism of Britis...AI Publications
The current production for energy consumption generates harmful impacts of carbon dioxide to the environment causing instability to sustainable development goals. The constitutional reforms of British Government serve to be an important means of resolving any encountered incompatibilities to political environment. This study aims to evaluate green economy using developed equation for renewable energy towards political polarization of corporate governance. The Kano Model Assessment is used to measure the equivalency of 1970 Patents Act to UK Intellectual Property tabulating the criteria for the fulfillment of sustainable development goals in respect to the environment, artificial intelligence, and dynamic dichotomy of administrative agencies and presidential restriction, as statutory interpretation development to renewable energy. The constitutional forms of British government satisfy the sustainable development goals needed to fight climate change, advocate healthy ecosystem, promote leadership of magnates, and delegate responsibilities towards green economy. The presidential partisanship must be observed to delineate parties of concerns and execute the government prescriptions in equivalence to the dichotomous relationship of technology and the environment in fulfilling the rights and privileges of all citizens. Hence, the political elites can execute corporate governance towards sustainable development of renewable energy promoting environmental parks and zero emission target of carbon dioxide discharges. The economic theory developed in statutory interpretation for renewable energy serves as a tool to reduce detrimental impacts of carbon dioxide to the environment, mitigate climate change, and produce artefacts of bioenergy and artificial intelligence promoting sustainable development. It is suggested to explore other vulnerabilities of artificial intelligence to prosper economic success.

Analysis of Value Chain of Cow Milk: The Case of Itang Special Woreda, Gambel...AI Publications
Ethiopia has a long and rich history of dairy farming, which was mostly carried out by small and marginal farmers who raised cattle, camels, goats, and sheep, among other species, for milk. Finding the Itang Special Woreda cow milk value chain is the study's main goal. In order to gather primary data, 204 smallholder dairy farmer households were randomly selected, and the market concentration ratio was calculated using 20 traders. Descriptive statistics, econometric models, and rank analysis were used to achieve the above specified goals. Out of all the participants in the milk value chain, producers, cafés, hotels, and dairy cooperatives had the largest gross marketing margins, accounting for 100% of the consumer price in channels I and II, 55% in channels III and V, and 25.5% in channels V. The number of children under five, the number of milking cows owned, the amount of money from non-dairy sources, the frequency of extension service contacts, the amount of milk produced each day, and the availability of market information were found to have an impact on smallholders' involvement in the milk market. Numerous obstacles also limited the amount of milk produced and marketed. The poll claims that general health issues, sickness, predators, and a lack of veterinary care are plaguing farmers. In order to address the issue of milk perishability, the researchers recommended the host community and organization to construct an agro milk processor, renovate the dairy cooperative in the study region, and restructure the current conventional marketing to lower the transaction and cost of milk marketing.
Minds and Machines: Impact of Emotional Intelligence on Investment Decisions ...AI Publications
In the evolving landscape of financial decision-making, this study delves into the intricate relationships among Emotional Intelligence (EI), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Investment Decisions (ID). By scrutinizing the direct influence of human emotional intelligence on investment choices and elucidating the mediating role of AI in this process, our research seeks to unravel the complex interplay between minds and machines. Through empirical analysis, we reveal that EI not only directly impacts ID but also exerts its influence indirectly through AI-mediated pathways. The findings underscore the pivotal role of emotional awareness in investor decision-making, augmented by the technological capabilities of AI. It suggests that most investors are influenced by the identified emotional intelligence when making investment decisions. Furthermore, AI substantially impacts investors' decision-making process when it comes to investing; nevertheless, AI partially mediates the relationship between emotional intelligence and investment decisions. This nuanced understanding provides valuable insights for financial practitioners, policymakers, and researchers, emphasizing the need for holistic strategies that integrate emotional and technological dimensions in navigating the intricacies of modern investment landscapes. As the synergy between human intuition and artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integral to financial decision-making, this study contributes to the ongoing discourse on the symbiotic relationship between minds and machines in investments.0
Bronchopulmonary cancers are common cancers with a poor prognosis. It is the leading cause of death by cancer in Algeria and in the world. Behind this unfavorable prognosis hides numerous disparities according to age, sex, and exposure to risk factors, ranking 4th among incident cancers and developing countries including Algeria, all sexes combined. It ranks 2nd cancers in men and 3rd among women. Whatever the age observed, the incidence of this cancer is higher in men than in women, however the gap is narrowing to the detriment of the latter. The results of scientific research agree to relate trends in incidence and mortality rates to tobacco consumption, including passive smoking. Furthermore, other risk factors are mentioned such as exposure to asbestos in the workplace or to radon for the general population, or even genetic predisposition. However, the weight of these etiological and/or predisposing factors is in no way comparable to that of tobacco in the genesis of lung cancer and the resulting mortality. We provide a literature review in our article on the descriptive and analytical epidemiology of lung cancer.

Growth, Yield and Economic Advantage of Onion (Allium cepa L.) Varieties in R...AI Publications
Haphazard and low soil fertility, low yielding verities and poor agronomic practices are among the major factors constraining onion production in the central rift valley of Ethiopia. Therefore, a field experiment was conducted in East Showa Zone of Adami Tulu Jido Combolcha district in central rift valley areas at ziway from October 2021 to April 2022 to identify appropriate rate of NPSB fertilizer and planting pattern of onion varieties. The experiment was laid out in split plot design of factorial arrangement in three replications. The main effect of NPSB blended fertilizer rates and varieties (red coach and red king) significantly (p<0.01) influenced plant height, leaf length, leaf diameter, leaf number and fresh leaf weight, shoot dry matter per plant, and harvest index. Total dry biomass, bulb diameter, neck diameter, average fresh bulb weight, bulb dry matter, marketable bulb yield, and total bulb yield were significantly (p<0.01) influenced only by the main effect of NPSB blended fertilizer rates. In addition, unmarketable bulb yield was statistically significantly affected (p≥0.05) by the blended fertilizer rates and planting pattern. Moreover, days to 90% maturity of onion was affected by the main factor of NPSB fertilizer rate, variety and planting pattern. The non-fertilized plants in the control treatment were inferior in all parameters except unmarketable bulb yield and harvest index. Significantly higher marketable bulb yield (41 t ha-1) and total bulb yield (41.33 t ha-1) was recorded from 300 kg ha-1 NPSB blended fertilizer rate applied. Double row planting method and hybrid red coach onion variety had also gave higher growth and yields. The study revealed that the highest net benefit of Birr, 878,894 with lest cost of Birr 148,006 by the combinations of 150 kg blended NPSB ha-1 with double row planting method (40cm*20cm*7cm) and red coach variety which can be recommendable for higher marketable bulb yield and economic return of hybrid onion for small scale farmers in the study area. Also, for resource full producers (investors), highest net benefit of Birr 1,205,372 with higher cost (159,628 Birr) by application of 300 kg NPSB ha-1 is recommended as a second option. However, the research should be replicated both in season and areas to more verify the recommendations.

The ethanolic extract of canarium solomonense leaves (ecsl) was studied for its neuroprotective activity. The neuroprotective activity of ECSL was found to have a significant impact on neuronal cell death triggered by hydrogen peroxide (MTT assay) in human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. Scopolamine, a muscarinic receptor blocker, is frequently used to induce cognitive impairment in laboratory animals. Injections of scopolamine influence multiple cognitive functions, including motor function, short-term memory, and attention. Using the Morris water maze, the Y maze, and the passive avoidance paradigm, memory enhancing activity in scopolamine-induced amnesic rats was evaluated. Using the Morris water maze, the Y maze, and the passive avoidance paradigm, ECSL was found to have a substantial effect on the memory of scopolamine- induced amnesic rats. Our experimental data indicated that ECSL can reverse scopolamine induced amnesia and assist with memory issues.
The goal of neuroprotection is to shield neurons against damage, whether that damage is caused by environmental factors, pathogens, or neurodegenerative illnesses.

Viral hepatitis is an infection that causes liver inflammation and damage. Several different viruses cause hepatitis, including hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. The hepatitis A and E viruses typically cause acute infections. The hepatitis B, C, and D viruses can cause acute and chronic infections. Hepatitis A causes only acute infection and typically gets better without treatment after a few weeks. The hepatitis A virus spreads through contact with an infected person’s stool. Protection by getting the hepatitis A vaccine. Hepatitis E is typically an acute infection that gets better without treatment after several weeks. Some types of hepatitis E virus are spread by drinking water contaminated by an infected person’s stool. Other types are spread by eating undercooked pork or wild game. Hepatitis B can cause acute or chronic infection. Recommendation for screening for hepatitis B in pregnant women or in those with a high chance of being infected. Protection from hepatitis B by getting the hepatitis B vaccine. Hepatitis C can cause acute or chronic infection. Doctors usually recommend one-time screening of all adults ages 18 to 79 for hepatitis C. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent liver damage. The hepatitis D virus is unusual because it can only infect those who have a hepatitis B virus infection. A coinfection occurs when both hepatitis D and hepatitis B infections at the same time. A superinfection occurs already have chronic hepatitis B and then become infected with hepatitis D. The aim of this study is to find the effect of each type of viral hepatitis on the bilirubin (TB , DSB) , and liver enzymes; AST, ALT, ALP,GGT among viral hepatitis patients. 200 patients were selected from the viral hepatitis units in the central public health laboratory in Baghdad city, all the chosen cases were confirmed as a positive samples , they are classified into four equal group each with fifty individual and with a single serological viral hepatitis type either; anti-HAV( IgM ) , HBs Ag , anti-HCV ,or anti-HEV(IgM ). All patients were tested for; serum bilirubin ( TB ,D.SB ) , AST , ALT , ALP , GGT. Another fifty quite healthy and normal person was selected as a control group for comparison. . Liver enzymes and bilirubin changes are more pronounced in HAV, HEV than HCV and HBVAST and ALT lack some sensitivity in detecting HCV ,HBV and mild elevations of ALT or AST in asymptomatic patients can be evaluated efficiently by considering ,hepatitis B, hepatitis C. ALT is generally a more sensitive indicator of acute liver cell damage than AST, It is relatively specific for hepatocyte necrosis with a marked elevations in viral hepatitis.

Determinants of Women Empowerment in Bishoftu Town; Oromia Regional State of ...AI Publications
The purpose of this study was to determine the status of women's empowerment and its determinants using women's asset endowment and decision-making potential as indicators. To determine representative sample size, this study used a two-stage sampling technique, and 122 sample respondents were selected at random. To analyze the data in this study, descriptive statistics and a probit model were used. The average women's empowerment index was 0.41, indicating a relatively lower status of women's empowerment in the study area. According to the study's findings, only 40.9% of women were empowered, while the remaining 59.1% were not. The probit model results show that women's access to the media, women's income, and their husbands' education status have a significant and positive impact on the status of women's empowerment, while the family size of households has a negative impact. As a result, it is important to enhance women's access to the media and income, promote family planning and contraception, and improve men's educational status in order to improve the status of women's empowerment.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

Abstract — The growth of the city of Jakarta is marked
among others by the development of new towns in the
surrounding areas including Tangerang. The growth of this
city establishes the character of a distinctive sub-urban area
emphasizing on indigenous settlement that retains its rural
character. The form of pressure in terms of land acquisition
and land development by new town developers concerning
vacant land and indigenous settlement areas resulted on the
emergence of enclave settlement. To ensure that the enclave
settlement is in line with the principles of sustainable
development, the phenomenon needs to be explored by
focusing on the inhabitants of enclave settlement. This study
is based on the question of whether the indigenous
settlements of the new town area can survive and be
prevailed by using certain strategies. To be able to answer
the question, descriptive analysis is exploited based on the
grounded method through field observation on the social life
of the inhabitants implementing through the spatial
arrangement of residential house at the new town of Gading
Serpong area. The results revealed that spatial typo-
morphology of residential house in the indigenous settlement
is basically a reflection of the strong values and social ties of
the inhabitants as the uppermost hierarchy of the spatial
socio-culture. Therefore, it is important to emphasize that
spatial typo-morphology can become significant factor in
supporting the resilience of enclave settlements in
responding to the development of new towns.
Keywords— New town ,Enclave settlement, Resilience,
Typo-morphology.
I. INTRODUCTION
The emerging phenomenon as new town sub-urban areas is
basically an indication of the expansion from urban into rural
areas in the developing countries (Pozoukidou & Ntriankos,
2017). Although the development of new towns is aimed at
reducing capital city’s load through the decentralization of
the population, the distribution of business opportunities, as
well as the availability of residential infrastructure(Suyarto,
1993), the negative impact on the indigenous environment is
remained real. The most prevalent impacts of the change,
among others, are reduced agricultural land (Sahana, et.al.,
2018; Parvaiz, et.al., 2017), changed in social society
(Gebregziabher, et.al., 2014; Huang, et.al., 2017)and ecology
(Haregeweyn, et.al., 2012, Dupras, et.al., 2016), and emerged
in social and spatial segregation (Firman, 2004; Daskalova &
Slaev, 2015; Winarso et al., 2015; Michelini & Pintos, 2016,
de Jeude, M.L., et.al. 2016).
One of the problems arises from urban expansion is related to
management and policy factors. These can be related to
studies of new town development in developing countries
such as those conducted in Beijing in China (Zhao, P.,2013),
Ahmedabad (Damayanti, 2010) and Kathmandu (Chitrakar,
et al., 2016) and Kolkata (Sahana, et.al.,2018) in India
emphasizing on the development and progress of a new town
which is heavily influenced by the development policy and
the intervention of direct management from both local and
central government (Noorloos& Steel, 2016). Whereas in
Indonesia, new urban development is likely to be established
by the developer without government interference, either in
planning or designing, in terms of the acquisition of large
number of vacant and uninhabited lands (Damayanti, 2010 ).
The land tenure and development in Tangerang covering
such a vast and massive area is one of the city's megapolitan
buffers. One that is currently under construction is the new
town of Gading Serpong. Developers are building the new
town equipped with a full range of urban service scales

(national and international) of residential buildings and
supporting facilities, i.e., business, education, health, and
entertainment. Land acquisition by the developers includes
buying the pre-existing settlements. This can be executed
based on the laws of the market without government
interference, resulted on the scattered boundary land areas of
developer. However, the indigenous settlement remains
existed because some of its inhabitants refused to sell their
land and houses (Ischak, et.al., 2018). In the development
process of this new town ,the developers constructed a
massive dividing wall between the new town and the
surrounding villages entailed on the emergence of enclave
settlement. This condition is as yet led to the lost space due
to the absence of human life as the users (Trancik, 1990).
The change in environmental landscape performed by
developers in the development of Gading Serpong new town
is not only about the fragmentation of the indigenous
settlement area, but also about the changes in almost all areas
of the people living in the indigenous settlements, such as,
occupation, kinship and neighborhood, building density,
building designation, and building designs and functions
(Ischak, et al., 2018).If based on the territorial review, the
dawn of a new town can not be separated from the city's
growth phenomenon which creates, as the impact it
generates, a new area equipped with distinctive new
character. This is due to the encounter of two territorial
characters, namely the character of the city represented in the
growth of Gading Serpong new town , which intersect with
the rural character represented by the enclave settlement.
This area is a mixture of village-city character which is
known as peri-urban or semi-urban. In some cases, experts
define sub-urban as a combination of peripheral regions as a
combined process of population and economic growth with
the expansion of urban space (Sauri, 2011; Ricci, 2016). On
the other hand, the existence of settlement in the sub-urban
area has a numerous opportunities to be organized. This can
be carried out byusing ecological and sociological
dimensions in the regional environmental spatial system
(Soetomo, 2009). The proper and regional development must
carry the concept of regionalism where the design of
settlement as the design of social space is in an ecological
space with the beauty of natural landscape and local
character (Rapoport, 1977).
The conditions that reflect the gap between the phenomenon
and the ideal demands raise the question of whether the
enclave settlements within the new town area can be
survivedtowards the pressure in the form of changes in the
physical and non-physical environment in and around the
settlement ?. The next question would be what factors can
support the resilience of the enclave? To be able to answer
the question, the discussion is directed to the community
context. This is in line with the effort to respond to
environmental problems, the relationships among inhabitants
in one community will always be involved (Uzzell, et al.,
2002). In terms of territorial border, the interaction among
settlers occurs in a place and space that starts from the
smallest unit in the family, to a wider territorial boundary
(Piselli, 2007). Thus, the analysis in this study begins with
the pattern of indigenous settlements’ life manifested in the
use of spaces in and around the houses. Therefore, it would
be appropriate to do so by identifying the houses with typo-
morphological studies.
Typology is concerned with how to classify all kinds of
objects based on the similarity in the form of character, trend,
size, and hierarchy (Frank and Schneekloth, 1994). While
morphology is the study of form and shape (Carmona, 2003)
in human settlement, and the process of how the formation
and transformation of its forming entities covering city
structure, land allotment, road patterns, buildings and open
spaces which can be studied in terms of structural, functional,
and visual forms (Zahn, 1999). Thus, typo-morphology is a
combination of the study of typology and morphology, which
is intended to describe the object group based on the
similarity of the basic properties. This research is conducted
by identifying the similarity in spatial character of the
residential houses of the indigenous settlement. Spatial
character in the form of the type of space setting will be
obtained based on the repeating patterns in the community of
enclave settlements.
In the context of expansion from urban into rural areas (sub-
urban),the survival of the indigenous settlement can not be
separated from the pressure of change due to the presence of
new towns in the vicinity. Therefore, this study is in line with
the review of resilience. The concept of resilience represents
the ability of rural areas to adapt to the changing condition
outside its territory in such a way as to maintain a
satisfactory quality of life, as well as to adjust to the
ecological, economic and social problems that accompany it
(Heijman et al., 2007). In line with the opinion of Heijman,
Kelly(2015)articulates that sustainability is a society's effort
to survive and grow to a more resilient situation in the
current environment of change, uncertainty and insecurity by
involving economic, institutional, social, cultural, and natural
domains. It emphasizes that the resilience of the settlements
is closely related to the adaptation process of external
pressures supported by the socio-cultural factors of the
community (Thulstrup, 2015;Muntele&Banica, 2013; Thorn,
et al., 2015). The process of adaptation involving

communities inhabiting one region is known as community
resilience (Kelly, et al., 2015; Lier, 2015; Sagala, et.al.,
2015). Muntele and Bănică (2013) more specifically
associate community resilience with that of spatial relation in
which resilience refers to the relationship between spatial
variation of the smallest unittothe macro unit.
Fig.1: The order of research scheme by using typo-morphology approach
On the other hand, spatial socio-cultural concept represents
the concept of social relations activities among people in
order to fulfill their needs whose implications lie on spatial
planning (arrangement on the length, width, and height) as a
space where the activities are carried out (Wibawa, 2014).
Thus, the concept of resilience of the indigenous settlement
can be traced from how the inhabitants adapt to the spatial
arrangement in the house as the smallest unit of analysis. It is
essentially a reflection of the social values of the community
in the research area as the hierarchy of the highest unit of
analysis.
II. METHOD
Research Locus
The research was conducted in one of the enclave villages in
Kampong Curug Sangereng, RW 06 Curug Sangereng
Village, Kelapa Dua District, Tangerang Regency, Banten.
Method
The method of the study is descriptive-analysis, in which the
data were directly conducted in terms of field observation
and in-depth interviews from the selected informants.
Physical and non-physical data in the form of phenomenon
and activity of the inhabitants were thoroughly examined by
using typo-morphology study as a collaboration between the
study of typology and morphology. The study of typology is
used to reveal the basic character of the physical formation of
buildings and spaces in and around the settlement which is a
manifestation of the social, cultural, and economic activities
of the inhabitants. Eventually, the character can be
formulated as a factor contributing to the resilience of the
people inhabiting the enclave settlements. Whereas, the
morphological approach using Zahn theory (1999) with
special emphasis on the functional studies. This study, is
therefore, based on the following scheme (figure 1).
III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The analysis in this study is based on the theory that a
settlement as a work of architecture basically reflects the life
recognition of the society, which contains some
communicated meanings (Rapoport, 1977).
Thus, residential houses inhabited by the community can be
positioned as the media of communication of the inhabitants’
everyday lives. The presence of the new town of Gading
Serpong, developed by two major developers, PT Paramount
Land and PT Summarecon which requires a large area by the
acquisition of vacant land and pre-existing settlements. One
of the impacts of territorial morphology is the emergence of
enclave settlements. The term enclave or squashed in the
settlement which is used as the research location describing
the condition of the territory of a settlement located in the
middle of a new town area (figure 2).

In terms of territorial area, the presence of planned
settlements in the form of new towns has a direct physical
impact on the research sites, namely the separation of
neighborhood unit(RukunTetangga) areas within a
community unit (RukunWarga) as can be experienced from
the research location (figure 3).

Changes in around and within the physical environment of
the indigenous settlement represent the existence of pressure
and external disturbance embodied in the form of planned
settlements in the newtown area from the early 1990s to the
present day. This pressure resulted on other non-physical
changes, such as the change of dominant occupation of

indigenous settlements from previously plants gardening and
raising animalsinto the informal workers.
Facing the pressure of landscape changes, although it directly
affects the daily aspects of social life such as work, and the
increasingly closed areas, it does not have a big effect on the
physical formation of the residential houses. In addition, the
inhabitants of enclave settlements ensure the potential of
internal strength as social asset, such as, bonds of kinship and
neighboring ties as the character of rural society that is
remained apparent. The form of attachment can be observed
from the spatial component of the house that represents the
character: houses are built without front fence, there is no
separating wall between one house to another, the terrace is
functioned as living room and as a lounge.
When viewed from a socio-cultural background, the
inhabitants of the enclave settlement remain homogeneous.
Ethnically, indigenous communities as inhabitants of enclave
settlements are mostly Sundanese who occupy semi-urban
areas as farmers (Research Team of Tangerang City, 2015).
If viewed from the origin of the occupants, there is no
migrant occupant from outside of the region. Thus, the
conditions of socio-cultural ties of the community is due to
the kinship factors and inhabitants who are hereditary
inhabited the village. Although there is a significant change
in the livelihoods due to the loss of agricultural land, the
remaining territorial character continues to form in terms of
plantation and livestock areas which are cultivated by the
communities. The cultural background becomes one of the
factors that are influential on the lives of socio-cultural
character in the society, especially in terms of intimacy of
family and neighbors. The character of rural society is
reflected through homogeneity in terms of language, culture,
social system, and intimacy of family and neighbor
(Wijayanti, 2014).One of the intimacy of neighbors and the
family ties that exist in the community, is being manifested
into the space setting around the residential houses, in the
form of the existence of space or place as a gathering
activities or in the local language is called a habit of
ngariung (gathering).

In the context of spatial arrangement, the community
members unconsciously design their houses based on the
social conditions especially in the provision of public space
around the dwelling. The room plays a big role in daily
activities as a medium of interaction among members of the
community due to the close social relations between
inhabitants. From the observation and field data analysis, the
emergence of the characteristics of the type of space that
almost always appears in every residential house is an open
terrace space that also functioned as a living room, and
"virtual" space that functioned as an informal gathering place
(figure 4).
Fig.5: The character of spatial arrangement of the residential houses which allows the interaction at any time
Setting the space is possibly performed by the inhabitants
due to the intimate relationship among the occupants so that
the direct interaction allows to be happened at any time
without a barrier (figure 5).
This condition leads to the formation of residential spatial
typology in the formation of spatial houses with the
composition of the living space as a private zone, and the
living room, terrace, yard, and gathering space as the public
zones. There are two types of variations caused by a house
with a front yard (figure 6a) and a house without a front yard
(figure 6b).

Fig.6(b): Type 2 space setting at residential houses without yard
On the macro spatial scale, the pattern of social life that has
an emotional connection among the inhabitants of the
enclave settlement gives rise to the territorial communal
space which is an accumulation of typology of spatial
arrangement in each residential unit. Referring to the theory
of Habraken (1998) which states that the presence of
territorial limits measured from the interests of individual
and public private life is closely related to the basic spatial
theory that divides the nature of space with the category of
private - semi-private (semi-public) - public. The relationship
among the inhabitants is very close because of the
similarities of background and bondof familial relationships
which demonstrates a large public space in every residential
house. If every public space in every residence is
accumulated, it basically reflects the creation of a wider
territory. Quoting from Altman (1975), the established
territory can be classified as a community territory (Figure
7).

With the occurrence of community territory as depicted in
Figure 7, the social bonding among inhabitants will always
grow through daily activities. This is to support the
appearance of social comfort atmosphere felt by the
community as the resident of enclave settlement although
physically there are many limitations on the inhabited area.
In the wider context, these conditions are basically supported
the values of sustainable development in the form of social
and ecological development, which have impacted and
directed to the role of human dimension and to the
involvement of all social and economic strata (Soetomo,
2009). The phenomenon and meaning of spatial in the form
of community territory is a reflection of the resilience to live
in the enclave settlement.
IV. CONCLUSION
Changes on environmental landscape in and around the
enclave settlements resulting from the construction of
planned settlements in the form of new towns, in itself
provides a direct impact on the living order of the
inhabitants. Although the physical existence of enclave
settlements is surrounded by many limitations caused by the
developer, the community can survive based on the social
bonds (family and neighboring ties) as a reflection of the
character of rural society. Efforts to respond is reflected in
the spatial arrangement as social character, both in the
residential sphere and the neighborhood area. The condition
produces a hierarchical functional typology, i.e., micro in the
form of residential spatial type, and macro in the form of
communal territory. The spatial constellation is a reflection
of the strong social cohesion both in the individual and in the
community. This becomes one achievable factor that
contributes to the resilience of the community inthe enclave
settlements.
