Soil information system of the Ukrainian Carpathians

The theoretical aspects and practical approaches to the creation of a soil information system on the example of the Ukrainian Carpathians, which is based on the use of vectorised large-scale soil mapping materials and GIS tools, are considered. The study is devoted to the development of a soil information system for the Ukrainian Carpathians, which integrates vectorised large-scale soil maps and GIS technologies to ensure efficient collection, storage and monitoring of soil data. The scientific novelty of the work is the creation of a multi-level information platform that combines data of different granularity and allows monitoring of soil transects, profiles, and genetic horizons, as well as determining spatial relationships between point and polygonal objects. Particular attention was paid to collecting cartographic materials reflecting the soil cover of the Ukrainian Carpathians and formalising the data for further integration into the soil information system. The system supports analytical tools that allow calculating various geometric, physical and chemical parameters of soil objects. The use of modern GIS tools enables accurate monitoring and forecasting of changes in soil cover under the influence of natural and anthropogenic factors, making it an important tool for the rational management of soil resources in the Carpathians. The developed system allows storing and updating information, which ensures its adaptability to changes in data analysis and processing methods. This not only increases the efficiency of monitoring, but also ensures the flexibility of the system for the specific needs of users. The practical significance lies in the possibility of using this system for soil protection, sustainable land management, and environmental safety. Expansion of this system to the entire territory of Ukraine will provide additional opportunities for effective monitoring and forecasting of changes in soil cover on a national scale, contributing to sustainable development and environmental protection. Key words: soil information systems; Ukrainian Carpathians; remote sensing; soil database.

Hydrogeochemistry, Water Quality, and Health Risk Analysis of Phreatic Groundwater in the Urban Area of Yibin City, Southwestern China

With rapid urbanization, intensified agricultural activities, and industrialization, groundwater resources are increasingly threatened by pollution. Industrial wastewater discharge and the extensive use of agricultural fertilizers in particular, have had substantial impacts on groundwater quality. This study examines 18 groundwater samples collected from the main urban area of Yibin City to assess hydrochemical characteristics, spatial distribution, source attribution, water quality, and human health risks. Statistical analysis reveals significant exceedances in TDS, NO3−, Mn, and As levels in groundwater, with elevated concentrations of B as well. Isotopic analysis identifies atmospheric rainfall as the primary recharge source for groundwater in the area, with water–rock interactions and limestone dissolution playing key roles in shaping its chemical composition. Applying the Entropy-Weighted Water Quality Index (EWQI) for a comprehensive water quality assessment, the study found that 94.44% of groundwater samples were rated as “good”, indicating relatively high overall water quality. Deterministic health risk assessments indicate that 72.22% of the groundwater samples have non-carcinogenic health risks below the threshold of 1, while 66.67% have carcinogenic health risks below 1.00 × 10−4. Monte Carlo simulations produced similar results, reinforcing the reliability of the health risk assessment. Although the study area’s groundwater quality is generally good, a significant human health risk persists, underscoring the need to ensure the safety of drinking and household water for local residents. This study provides a valuable reference for the rational management and remediation of groundwater resources.

Assessment of Impact of Use of Renewable Energy Sources on Level of Energy Poverty in EU Countries

The share of renewable energy sources (RES) in the global energy system is systematically increasing, making them the most important element of the energy transformation. Their use enables rational management of limited resources, reduction of environmental pollution, and has a significant inhibitory effect on energy poverty by improving energy efficiency. The aim of this article is to assess the impact of the use of renewable energy on the level of energy poverty in the European Union countries in 2010, 2015, and 2022. A taxonomic measure of development based on the Weber median was used to examine the relationship between the results achieved by individual EU member states in terms of the impact of the use of renewable energy on the level of energy poverty. The research results clearly indicate the existence of disproportions between the countries of the “old” EU and the countries that joined it in 2004 and later. These disproportions concern both the use of energy obtained from renewable sources and energy poverty. In the countries of the “old” Union, a positive moderate relationship was identified between the use of renewable energy and energy poverty, which means that a higher share of the use of energy from renewable sources in these countries reduces energy poverty. In the countries of the “new” Union, however, this relationship was very weak (2010) or non-existent. Since the renewable energy sector is subject to government policy and regulations, the results presented in this paper should be of interest to decision-makers. A stable, long-term policy should provide an appropriate investment climate that provides support for renewable energy projects and reduces the level of energy poverty.

Ecosystem of game animals is the economic and mathematical model for optimizing the size and structure of game animal populations in the ecosystem

Methodology of economic and mathematical modeling involves the formation of a system from subsystems and elements united by logical relationships. The size and structure of subsystems and elements can be optimized in the system for diff erent optimality criteria. According to this algorithm, mathematical models of ecosystems with diff erent content bases are formed. Biological subsystems and elements can serve as a basis for an ecosystem that is solved for economic optimality criteria, or economic indicators can act as relationships in the ecosystem. In this way, the content base of the mathematical model is represented by biological subsystems and elements, and the optimality criteria are formed on the basis of economic indicators. This process is refl ected in the economic and mathematical model of a specifi c ecosystem. An original economic and mathematical model (EMM) for optimizing the size and structure of game animal populations in a given ecosystem has been proposed in the paper. The presented EMM is based on optimizing the size and structure of populations of both predators and preys in hunting areas, taking into account the boundaries of their range. The EMM “Ecosystem of Game Animals” is based on the EMM “Predator-Prey” and has a block-diagonal structure, where the main blocks are the “Prey” and “Predator” blocks, and the feeding and habitat blocks of game animals act as connecting ones. The optimality criteria of the EMM “Ecosystem of Game Animals” can be expressed by objective functions that implement diff erent scenarios for the implementation of the model. The described model allows us to create a mathematical representation of the ecosystem and study the biological characteristics of game animal populations, which ultimately contributes to more rational resource management in the hunting areas of our country.

DEFINING COMPONENTS OF THE METHODOLOGICAL PLATFORM FOR FORMING A BUSINESS PORTFOLIO OF A COMPANY IN THE UPDATED FORMAT OF MODERN DEVELOPMENT

The article is devoted to the analysis of the economic and operational imperatives of forming a business portfolio for a development company in the construction sector. A successful business portfolio management strategy requires the integration of financial, organizational, and technological aspects to ensure the sustainability and competitiveness of the business. In modern conditions, real estate development is one of the key factors that determines the dynamics of enterprise development, as it includes a comprehensive approach to asset management, from planning and financing to the construction and operation of objects. The theoretical and methodological foundations of the genesis of development at the current stage of the construction market's evolution have been analyzed.The methodological platform for forming a business portfolio should be based on the principles of rational resource management, risk analysis, and technological optimization. Changes in development activities require the active use of digital tools and a comprehensive approach to managing residential, commercial, and industrial properties, which allows for the maximization of profitability and minimization of risks.The article discusses the main stages of portfolio formation, such as strategic planning, selection of investment objects, and their integration into the overall structure of the enterprise. An economic and mathematical formalization of the process is also provided. For the successful operation of a development company, it is crucial to ensure coordinated work at all stages of the project — from planning and financing to construction and commissioning of the facilities.Particular attention is paid to the methods of economic and mathematical modelling (EMM) and quantitative risk analysis, which have become the basis for the development of the latest asset management strategies. The study analyses 35 different techniques. Each methodology offers unique tools for the effective management of development projects that allow forecasting financial flows, determining optimal investment strategies, and building the best plans for the development of a real estate portfolio. The specific methods used to value residential, commercial and industrial real estate are also discussed, taking into account their different levels of risk and return.It is important to note that the updated methodological platform is suitable for adaptation to the latest technologies and digital tools. This includes the introduction of a project management system, the use of artificial intelligence technologies to analyse large amounts of data, and the use of analytical tools to predict market trends. This approach helps to optimise asset management in a changing market environment. The analysis of the main components of the business portfolio formation platform also showed that important factors for the successful implementation of development projects are the speed of response to market changes, flexibility of management decisions, and the ability to minimise risks at all stages of the project.

About the necessity of legal regulation of the economy of Georgia

The use of mechanisms and tools of legal regulation of inclusive economy in Georgia should significantly reduce the discord between some undesirable trends of globalisation and social justice, and support sustainable development of the Georgian economy. At the current stage of development, the Government of Georgia has to deal with two hardest challenges in economy. These are the adaptation to economic regulations of the EU and the maintenance of the country’s economic security. The simultaneous solution to the problems is possible only if the intercompatibility of social justice and inclusivity of economy is achieved. The current academic work analyses the existing socio-economic challenges in the country, based on the data generated by the National Statistics Office of Georgia. The research shows that despite a number of some positive steps taken in the direction of inclusiveness, a number of significant problems remain in the field of fair distribution of public resources as well as in the rational management of natural and human resources. Only through legal regulation of inclusive economy it is possible to improve the living environment, promote innovative entrepreneurship, enhance social security and medical services, reduce poverty, create jobs, etc. Keywords: inclusive economy, legal regulation, public good, property, employment and unemployment, social security.

Losses and destabilization of soil organic carbon stocks in coastal wetlands converted into aquaculture ponds.

Coastal-wetlands play a crucial role as carbon (C) reservoirs on Earth due to their C pool composition and functional sink, making them significant for mitigating global climate change. However, due to the development and utilization of wetland resources, many wetlands have been transformed into other land-use types. The current study focuses on the alterations in soil organic-C (SOC) in coastal-wetlands following reclamation into aquaculture ponds. We conducted sampling at 11 different coastal-wetlands along the tropical to temperate regions of the China coast. Each site included two community types, one with solely native species (Suaeda salsa, Phragmites australis and Mangroves) and the other with an adjacent reclaimed aquaculture pond. Across these 11 locations we compared SOC stock, active OC fractions, and soil physicochemical properties between coastal wetlands and aquaculture ponds. We observed that different soil uses, sampling sites, and their interaction had significant effects on SOC and its stock (p < .05). Reclamation significantly declined SOC concentration at depths of 0-15 cm and 15-30 cm by 35.5% and 30.3%, respectively, and also decreased SOC stock at 0-15 cm and 15-30 cm depths by 29.1% and 37.9%, respectively. Similar trends were evident for SOC stock, labile organic-C, dissolved organic-C and microbial biomass organic-C concentrations (p < .05), indicating soil C-destabilization and losses from soil following conversion. Soils in aquaculture ponds exhibited higher bulk density (BD; 11.3%) and lower levels of salinity (61.0%), soil water content (SWC; 11.7%), total nitrogen (TN) concentration (23.8%) and available-nitrogen concentration (37.7%; p < .05) than coastal-wetlands. Redundancy-analysis revealed that pH, BD and TN concentration were the key variables most linked with temporal variations in SOC fractions and stock between two land use types. This study provides a theoretical basis for the rational utilization and management of wetland resources, the achievement of an environment-friendly society, and the preservation of multiple service functions within wetland ecosystems.

Hydrogeochemical Characteristics and Formation Processes of Ordovician Limestone Groundwater in Zhuozishan Coalfield, Northwest China

A comprehensive understanding of the characteristics and formation mechanisms of groundwater in mining areas is essential for the effective prevention of coal mine water and the rational management of groundwater resources. The objective of this study was to examine the hydrogeochemical characteristics and evolution of Ordovician groundwater in the Zhuozishan coal mine, located in the northwest region of China. A total of 34 groundwater samples were collected for hydrogeochemical analyses and the investigation of their evolution processes, with the aid of a piper trilinear diagram, a Gibbs diagram, and an ion ratio diagram. The results indicate that the concentration of sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), bicarbonate (HCO3−), chloride (Cl−), sulphate (SO42−), total dissolved solids (TDS), and pH increases from the recharge area to the discharge area, whereas the concentration of calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) decreases. The hydrogeochemical characteristics of the runoff from Zhuozishan to Gongdeer coalfield and further southward display a notable north–south directional change. The groundwater process is primarily controlled by rock weathering action and cation exchange, with Na+ and K+ deriving primarily from cation exchange and only to a minor extent from halite dissolution. In conclusion, the northern part of the coalfield is characterised by a geological structure that creates a retention area with groundwater, resulting in an unordered runoff process with a complex formation mechanism. The middle region is devoid of geological constraints that would alter the flow direction, thus simplifying the process of groundwater formation. In contrast, the southern area experiences an increase in strata depth and fault blocking, which creates a retention zone, thereby rendering the groundwater formation process more complex. This research contributes to the effective management of groundwater resources in this coalfield and other mining sites.

Transformation of the Cultural Landscape in the Central Part of the Historical Region of Warmia in Poland

The study analyzed the cultural landscape of Dobre Miasto municipality, which is situated in north-eastern Poland, in the heart of the Warmia region. Cultural traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation and are presently being revived constitute the backbone of Warmia’s cultural heritage. The Warmian landscape comprises several distinctive components, including traditional settlement patterns dating back to the 13th and 14th centuries, as well as cultural values (historical and architectural values, and the level of their preservation) that are being increasingly recognized and contribute to the region’s tourism potential. The growing awareness that the cultural landscape must be preserved for the future generations implies that landscape protection is no longer regarded as a niche problem that is of interest only to experts in the field, and that activities should also be initiated at the local level. The study aimed to specify measures that should be undertaken to protect the components of the cultural landscape and to propose strategies that will not only contribute to the appreciation of cultural values, but will also facilitate the promotion and preservation of cultural landscape components that are gradually disappearing from the rural fabric. This complex approach to the rational management of environmental resources can set an example for other lake regions with clearly defined historical roots and well-preserved cultural values. The resulting guidelines and conclusions can be useful for developing new planning documents and updating and validating the existing legal regulations on planning, development, land use, and protection of the cultural landscape.

Study on the Impact of Enterprise HR Management Informationization on Labor Relations Management

In the context of global economic integration, new opportunities have arisen for the robust development of China's economy and various industries. As the mainstay of all economic activities, enterprises have a significant impact on competitiveness through internal management optimization and effective talent utilization. Thus, managing human resources well is of great importance. To meet the long-term development needs of enterprises, relying solely on capital accumulation and technological innovation is insufficient. It is also essential to build an efficient, collaborative, and innovative team based on actual development needs. Such a team requires scientific and rational human resource management. In the age of informationization, the effective management of human resources information systems has become a key means for enterprises to enhance management efficiency and optimize resource allocation. Labor relations, an important aspect of enterprise management, directly affect the stable development of an enterprise. Human resource management information systems can help establish a more transparent and fair labor relations management system, reduce labor disputes, and increase employee satisfaction, thereby creating a favorable development environment for the enterprise. Therefore, strengthening the construction of human resource management information systems has become an inevitable choice for enterprises to enhance competitiveness and achieve sustainable development.

The Influence of Climate Change on the Distribution of Hibiscus mutabilis in China: MaxEnt Model-Based Prediction.

Our study utilized 374 geographical distribution records of H. mutabilis and 19 bioclimatic factors, employing the MaxEnt model and the Geographic Information System (ArcGIS). The key environmental variables influencing the suitable distribution areas of H. mutabilis were analyzed through the comprehensive contribution rate, permutation importance, and Pearson correlation coefficient. Based on this analysis, the contemporary and future suitable distribution areas and their extents were predicted. The results indicate that the key limiting factor affecting the suitable distribution areas of H. mutabilis is the precipitation of the driest month (bio14), with secondary factors being annual precipitation (bio12), annual mean temperature (bio1), and annual temperature range (bio7). Under contemporary climate conditions, the total suitable area for H. mutabilis is approximately 2,076,600 km2, primarily concentrated in the tropical and subtropical regions of southeastern China. Under low-to-medium-emission scenarios (SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5), the total suitable area of H. mutabilis shows a trend of first decreasing and then increasing compared to the current scenario. In contrast, under high-emission scenarios (SSP5-8.5), it exhibits a trend of first increasing and then decreasing. The spatial pattern changes indicate that the retention rate of suitable areas for H. mutabilis ranges from 95.28% to 99.28%, with the distribution centers primarily located in Hunan and Guizhou provinces, showing an overall migration trend towards the west and north. These findings suggest that H. mutabilis possesses a certain level of adaptability to climate change. However, it is crucial to consider regional drought and sudden drought events in practical cultivation and introduction processes. The results of our study provide a scientific basis for the rational cultivation management, conservation, and utilization of germplasm resources of H. mutabilis.

Evolution of Biodiversity Protection in the Framework of European Common Agricultural Policy

The Common Agricultural Policy has undergone continuous evolution over the years, moving from a narrow, production-oriented approach to an agriculture with holistic approach, in which agricultural activity is intended to be treated having harmonious and sustainable utilization and rational management of natural resources and components of nature. The goal of protecting biodiversity within the Common Agricultural Policy becomes increasingly visible with each successive financing period; yet its fulfilment encounters numerous difficulties, primarily due to the resistance of Member States to introducing far-reaching changes, as well as due to the resistance of agricultural environments considering the indicated changes as striking their interests. The aim of this article is to evaluate the legal solutions adopted within the framework of the Common Agricultural Policy, both in its initial period of validity and the period commencing from year 2000, when the focus on environmental issues became significantly more prominent. This article also evaluates the currently applicable financial perspective in the context of its potential for protecting biodiversity in agricultural activities.

Site-specific efficient management of soil resources using GIS and BIM technologies

Abstract The spatial data sets of soil resources are essential for the interpretation of the site-specific ecosystems, not only concerning process investigations, but also for sustainable soil management The objective of the study was to attempt identification of the primary parameters influencing the rational management of soils available without the necessity of carrying out time-consuming and costly field and laboratory research. The research was carried out in the Pawłów commune (north-eastern part of the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, Poland). The research included the application of different methods and interpretation of source materials, including (i) digital soil-agricultural map, (ii) annex to the soil-agricultural map at a scale of 1:5000, (iii) soil quality contours, (iv) digital terrain model, and (v) orthophotomaps. Obtaining data concerning soil type and/or agricultural usefulness complexes would require conducting a generalisation process. Publicly available ortophotomaps and cartographic materials in the form of topographic maps and a numerical terrain model were analysed to determine the extent of soils to be protected. The rational management of space and soil resources can be visualised and documented using BIM technology; however, relying on GIS data is not the most straightforward task due to the lack of integration on the BIM-GIS line. This paper presents the current state of the art and attempts to address selected problems in this area.

Biofuel production from macrophytes

The depletion of natural resources and minerals is leading to slower economic growth in many countries. Sustainable economic development requires rational resource management and waste reduction, as disposal or incineration pollutes fertile soils, the atmosphere, and water bodies. This study aimed to develop methods for obtaining the technology of liquid biofuel (bio-oil) production by hydrothermal revitalization of the biomass of macroalgae and aquatic macrophytes. The thermal properties and caloric content of aquatic plant biomass, specifically Phragmites australis, Scirpus lacustris, Typha angustifolia L., and Sparganium erectum L., were investigated, and the optimal parameters for hydrothermal revitalization of their biomass were identified. The biomass of P. australis and S. lacustris was shown to have optimal thermal properties, having an ash content of 7.6% and 6.6%, respectively, and a maximum mass loss temperature of 351 °C and 345 °C, respectively. The production regimes for liquid biofuel (bio-oil) were established. The properties of fuel derived from P. australis biomass were evaluated, including the content of easily boiling fractions and coke residue. The magnitude of fuel yield from biomass P. australis was found to be correlated with the quality of bio-oil. Thus, obtaining biofuels from aquatic plants is one of the promising areas of plant biomass processing.

TERRITORIES IN TRANSFORMATION: CHALLENGES AND PERSPECTIVES IN SUSTAINABLE SPACE PLANNING AND PLANNING

This article addresses the importance of territorial planning and ordering, highlighting the influence of works such as "Right to participation in urban policies: advances after 15 years of city statute", "For Another Globalization: From Single Thought to Universal Consciousness" and "Experiences in Urban Territorial Planning in Latin America: the context of Brazil”. The understanding of territory as a dynamic product of social actions highlights territorialization as intrinsic to the reorganization of territorial information and social stratification. The analysis of power relations, according to Raffestin and Saquet, reveals political-ideological conflicts in the territory. Settlements, as products of complex power relations, highlight the struggle for land and social inequalities. The rational management of natural resources, aligned with sustainability, is vital to balance environmental preservation and social equity. The main objective of the article is to analyze the resistance of the settlers, highlighting their difficulties and exploring the potential of public policies to improve their living conditions, contributing to the understanding of the dynamics of territorial planning.
