Effects of Metropolitan Land Use on Water Quality in Zing Local Government Ar...

Premier Publishers

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of Zing metropolitan land use on Zing River water quality in Taraba State, Nigeria. Water samples were collected from three sample points and analyzed to determine the level of pollution of water in the River. Parameters such as temperature, pH, turbidity, TDS, Nitrate, Nitrite, phosphate, chloride, fluoride, iron, zinc and E- Coli, were considered. Water samples were purposively and carefully select and collected to ensure that the samples were upstream, within and downstream of the land use types respectively. The study adopted descriptive statistics. Result showed that the major sources of pollution in Zing Rivers are agricultural run-off, run-off from urban center, local craft industrial effluents and discharges from commercial and residential houses. This may lead to water borne/Water related diseases in the study area. The finding showed that the variety and level of pollution in Zing River is related to the size of population and land use activities going on at various parts of the metropolis from where it receives run-off and pollutants.

The study proposes further engagement within these communities to conduct an assessment of the viability of an agroecological transition.

Factors affecting adoption of cover crops in us syobean production

Soil and Water Conservation Society

This document summarizes a presentation on the adoption of cover crops in soybean production. It finds that while cover crops provide benefits like reducing nutrient pollution and erosion, their current adoption rate in the US is only 13% on cropped farms. Regression analysis found that factors positively affecting adoption included renewable energy production, conservation tillage, federal crop insurance, and environmental programs, while off-farm work and lack of equipment were barriers. The study concludes that addressing time/cost challenges and climate issues could increase cover crop use.

Recommendation for successful “the saem” facebook page

Floria Hong

This document provides an analysis and recommendations for improving the Facebook page of The Saem cosmetics brand. It analyzes the Facebook pages of The Saem and competitors like Innisfree and Petitzel. It finds that The Saem's page lacks diverse content related to nature and customer engagement. The document recommends a "Giving Tree Campaign" where liking the page would symbolically plant a tree, with the cover photo updating to show a fuller tree as fans engage. This would promote nature conservation while strengthening the brand relationship through gamified two-way interactions on Facebook.

Cottage Cell Phone In China

Yuancheng Yang

The document discusses cottage phones, which are cheap phones made in informal workshops rather than by major brands. They often have high-capacity batteries, use MTK chipsets, and have comprehensive functions, but may lack quality assurance and be unsafe. Major brands have better after-sales service and quality assurance, but are more expensive. The document argues cottage phones should enhance their creative abilities and respond quickly to the market while keeping prices low through legal means to change their approach.

Joanna Hicks

The SIMLESA project in Kenya tested conservation agriculture practices to improve maize-legume production for smallholders. Researchers studied the effects of minimal tillage and residue retention on soil properties, water use efficiency, and crop yields over multiple seasons. Results showed that conservation agriculture practices increased water use efficiency and more than doubled maize yields compared to conventional tillage. Crop modeling with APSIM also accurately predicted yields under different management systems. While adoption of conservation agriculture provided benefits, some challenges like residue competition and lack of farm implements remained barriers for smallholders.

Groasis Waterboxx Lets Trees Grow Up in Unfriendly Places

School Vegetable Gardening - Victory Gardens

The Groasis Waterboxx is a low-tech device that helps seeds and saplings grow into strong trees in dry environments. It collects and stores rainwater and condensation to slowly water the roots daily. In tests, 88% of trees grown with the Waterboxx survived compared to only 10.5% without it. The inventor believes using this technology could reforest billions of acres and offset humanity's carbon emissions by capturing CO2 in new tree growth.

School Vegetable Gardening - Victory Gardens

The document summarizes an invention called the Groasis that helps plants survive in arid climates by collecting and storing rainfall to provide steady watering to seedlings. It notes that most rainfall in deserts occurs within one week but is then unavailable, and that the Groasis uses evaporation-proof containers and wicking to deliver water to young plants over longer periods, allowing their roots to develop and access deeper groundwater reserves. Large-scale projects have used the Groasis in countries like Kenya to aid reforestation efforts and combat desertification.

Using the Groasis Waterboxx to Plant New Trees in Desert Regions

School Vegetable Gardening - Victory Gardens

The document summarizes the work of the Sahara Roots Foundation in Morocco and their use of the Groasis Waterboxx to help plant trees and reduce desertification. The Sahara Roots Foundation was established to implement development projects to conserve the Moroccan Sahara through activities like tree planting, irrigation, education, and desert cleaning. They have started using the Groasis Waterboxx, an "intelligent water battery" developed by AquaPro, to improve the survival rate of newly planted trees. The Waterboxx produces and captures water through condensation and rain, allowing trees to be planted in dry areas like rocks and deserts with a 100% success rate.

Groasis Technology Compared to Drip Irrigation

School Vegetable Gardening - Victory Gardens

Groasis Technology is compared to drip irrigation over a 50-year project for a 500-hectare tree plantation. Key financial indicators show that using Groasis Waterboxes results in a higher net present value (NPV) of €26.62 million compared to €21.15 million for drip irrigation, and a slightly higher internal rate of return (IRR) of 22.1% versus 23.4% for drip irrigation. Waterboxx also has a longer payback period of 7 years compared to 5 years for drip irrigation. The document provides assumptions and calculations for costs and revenues for both systems over the 50-year period.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education

Peter Windle

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction. This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
