Abstract:
Based on the model of ecological environment evolution in the process of the economic development, this paper constructed the evaluation index system of marine ecological environment. The results were shown as follows: the evaluation index system of marine ecological environment consists of 1 object layer, 3 element layers (state of marine ecological environment pressure of marine ecological environment and response of marine ecological environment), and 15 factor layers. Index weight was calculated through combination weighting approach of subjective and objective evaluation method of analytic hierarchy process(AHP) and entropy method. The evaluation indicator system and evaluation method have general applicability and strong operability.

Abstract:
The article presents the results of standardization of the questionary "Immersion Index in the Internet environment", intended for the adolescents aged 12 to 17 years. The questionary was based on theoretical analysis of the phenomenon of "immersion in the Internet environment", which allowed us to build its theoretical model and suggest that this phenomenon can be described through digital competence, digital consumption and emotional attitude to the digital environment. The standardization was carried out in two stages, with the participation of a total of 1142 teenagers from St. Petersburg. The first version of the questionnaire, tested for convergent validity, was adjusted in accordance with the results obtained. At the second stage, the questionnaire underwent the procedures of factorization, determination of reliability (Cronbach's Alpha coefficient), testing distribution normality, and age norms. The article presents a standardized version of the questionnaire "Immersion Index in the Internet environment" and instructions for processing the results.

Abstract:
Environmental and demographic factors played an important role in the transmission of COVID-19,. This review discusses the potential impact of climatic variables such as temperature, humidity, Air Quality Index (AQI), air pollutants, wastewater and different surfaces on the spread of SARS-COVID-2 virus. Different studies have demonstrated the significant effect of ambient rise in temperature and humidity on Corona cases. However, air quality index and air pollutants are more significantly associated with the mortality rate of corona patients. Furthermore, COVID-19 can survive longer on smooth surfaces as compare to the rough surfaces. The presence of the virus is also detected in stool samples of the patient and wastewater but no study has shown transmission of disease through drinking contaminated water. Hence, meteorological and environmental factors have significant impact on the occurrence of the virus and its spread.

Abstract:
In multiple standard OLS regression models, we test the effects of 26 standard predictor variables, including the ‘four freedoms’ of goods, capital, labour and services, on the following indicators of sustainable development: avoiding net trade of ecological footprint gha per person, Carbon emissions per million US dollars GDP, CO2 per capita, Environmental Performance Index (EPI), Global footprint per capita, Happy Life Years, Happy Planet Index, and ln (number of people per mill inhabitants 1980-2000 killed by natural disasters per year+1). Our research shows that the apprehensions of quantitative globalization critical research are fully vindicated by the significant negative environmental effects of the foreign savings rate. High foreign savings are indeed a driver of global footprint, and are a blockade against a satisfactory Happy Planet Index performance. The New International Division of Labour (NIDL)-model (Froebel et al., 1980) is one of the prime drivers of high CO2 per capita emissions. MNC penetration, the master variable of most quantitative dependency theories, blocks environmental performance (EPI-Index) and several other socially important processes. Worker remittances have a significant positive effect on the Happy Planet Index, and Happy Life Years.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjectives: In dentistry, the results of in vivo studies on drugs, dental fillings or prostheses are routinely evaluated based on selected oral cavity environment parameters at specific time points. Such evaluation may be confounded by ongoing changes in the oral cavity environment induced by diet, drug use, stress and other factors. The study aimed to confirm oral cavity environment changeability.Methods: 24 healthy individuals aged 20–30 had their oral cavity environment prepared by having professional hygiene procedures performed and caries lesions filled. Baseline examination and the examination two years afterwards, evaluated clinical and laboratory parameters of oral cavity environment. Caries incidence was determined based on DMFT and DMFS values, oral cavity hygiene on Plaque Index (acc. Silness & Löe) and Hygiene Index (acc. O`Leary), and the gingival status on Gingival Index (acc. Löe & Silness) and Gingival Bleeding Index (acc. Ainamo & Bay). Saliva osmolarity, pH and concentrations of Ca2+, Pi, Na+, Cl-, total protein, albumins, F- and Sr2+ were determined.Results: The results confirmed ongoing changeability of the oral cavity environment. After 2 years of the study reduction in oral cavity hygiene parameters PLI and HI (P<0.1), and gingival indices as well as lower saliva concentration of Ca2+ (P<.001), Pi (P<.06), K+ (P<.04), Sr2+ (P<.03), Na+ (P<.1), against the baseline values, were observed. Total protein and albumin saliva concentrations were also significantly lower.Conclusion: Physiological oral cavity environment is subject to constant, individually different, changes which should be considered when analysing studies that employ oral cavity environment parameters.

Abstract:
The macrobenthos community structure of living organisms in aquatic base, can function as a bioindicator of changes in aquatic environments, are sensitive to any disturbance of environmental changes within a waters. This research aims to determine the effect of different structures of macrobenthos communities in the cultivation environment and noncultivation environment. The research was conducted for 4 months on Tembelas island in 2 areas that were monoculture cultivation and reference area. Abiotic data obtained were substrate grain analysis and total organic analysis of carbon and nitrogen, as well as abiotic environmental parameters such as temperature, pH, salinity and dissolved oxygen. The biotic data obtained in the form of macrobenthos species that were found and the amount in the area was then calculated using non parametric index that were the level of diversity, eveness and abundance, and T test. The identification result showed the number of species found as many as 24 species in the monoculture location and 42 species at the reference location. Dominant species found in monoculture locations were Costoanachis sp and Anodontia sp. dominant species found in the reference sites were Nuculana sp and Ellobium sp. Shannon-Wiener (H') diversity index value at monoculture location was 2,43, while reference index value index had bigger index value 2,83. The abiotic quality of monoculture and reference aquatic environments was categorized as good. Based on the result of the research, it can be concluded that reference environment had better macrobenthos diversity value than monoculture environment.

Abstract:
The coffee outturn index, understood as the relation between the cherry coffee fruit harvested from the field and its respective processed grains, is an important component of the Coffea canephora bean yield. The aim of this study was to quantify the coffee outturn index of the Amazon Robusta cultivars grown in irrigated and dryland Western Amazon environments. According to the maturation cycle of each clone, washed samples of cherry coffee were collected considering a completely randomized factorial design for characterization of the effects of genotypes, environments, and the genotype × environment (G×E) interaction. The contrasting environments of Porto Velho, RO, and Ouro Preto do Oeste, RO, Brazil, represent most of the coffee growing sites located in Am and Aw climate types, cultivated in Red and Yellow Oxisols, typical of the Western Amazon. The weight reductions through drying exhibited a G×E interaction of the complex type, which is characterized by a change in the ordering of genotypes from one environment to another, whereas the weight reductions through hulling exhibited a G×E interaction predominantly of the simple type. The reduction in weight due to drying was more affected by the environment than reduction in weight after pulping. The clones BRS1216, BRS 3220, and BRS3137 had the highest outturn index estimates and the clones BRS2314, BRS3213, and BRS2336 had the lowest outturn index estimates. The clones BRS2299, BRS3210, BRS3193, and BRS2357 had performance near the mean value of this group of genotypes. Considered together, the genotypes had a mean outturn of 24.41%, with an amplitude from 22.5% to 27.2%.

Abstract:
In the area of well construction, the tool reliability and the field environment are two contributing factors that influence drilling job efficiency and success. Either using high specification tools in low-risk environmental or applying tools of low reliability in harsh environments is inadvisable. Thus, how to select a suitable tool fitting the environment of an approaching drilling job is of great significance for tool planning. However, today, the tool selection decision is not optimized because it is often based on partial data availability and understanding. This paper presents an indicator called tool compatibility index, which can support improved tool selection decision making. This index takes part reliability, part criticality, and field environment into consideration, and gives a score indicating the compatibility of the tool to a specific environment. Moreover, the tool compatibility index is computed based on a weighted average method, which is computation simple and can be easily deployed. This work is part of a long-term project aiming to construct a risk-based decision advisor for drilling and measurement tools.

Abstract:
Rapid urbanisation has highlighted problems in the urban ecological environment and stimulated research on the evaluation of urban environments. In previous studies, key factors such as greenness, wetness, and temperature were extracted from satellite images to assess the urban ecological environment. Although air pollution has become increasingly serious as urbanisation proceeds, information on air pollution is not included in existing models. The Sentinel-5P satellite launched by the European Space Agency in 2017 is a reliable data source for monitoring air quality. By making full use of images from Landsat 8, Sentinel-2A, and Sentinel-5P, this work attempts to construct a new remote sensing monitoring index for urban ecology by adding air quality information to the existing remote sensing ecological index. The proposed index was tested in the Beijing metropolitan area using satellite data from 2020. The results obtained using the proposed index differ greatly in the central urban region and near large bodies of water from those obtained using the existing remote sensing monitoring model, indicating that air quality plays a significant role in evaluating the urban ecological environment. Because the model constructed in this study integrates information on vegetation, soil, humidity, heat, and air quality, it can comprehensively and objectively reflect the quality of the urban ecological environment. Consequently, the proposed remote sensing index provides a new approach to effectively monitoring the urban ecological environment.

Abstract:
AbstractWalking is a more sustainable transport mode, and governments around the world are trying to deliver highly walkable areas to their people. Due to its importance, walkability has been a research topic in recent years. Vast empirical studies have reported evidence related to the influence of built environment on walking as a major physical activity. Considering the recent literature, this study developed a framework to quantify walkability by applying a set of indicators related to built environment. The indicators were normalised, weighted and integrated into an overall walkability index. The research was conducted on Chaharbagh Street, which is a major and ancient street in the Isfahan metropolitan area, Iran. The proposed framework would be helpful in investigations of whether a specific area is an appropriate option for a car-free plan based on its built environment features. The outcome of the study could be applied to understand issues related to pedestrian infrastructure and to propose corrective actions.

Abstract:
The WPI is an important tool to summarize a large number of water quality data into simple terms which is one of the most effective ways to interrelate information on water quality trends. The information generated can help to guide policy makers on effective restoration, conservation and management of water resources. In this technique the weightage for various water quality parameters is assigned to be inversely proportional to the recommended standards for the corresponding parameters. Estuaries represent productive aquatic habitats and are characterized by dynamic biogeochemical processes. Water quality loss in estuaries is, therefore, one of the worst forms of water pollution. For the analysis of water parameters, the water samples were collected and preserved in pre-rinsed plastic bottles at monthly intervals during June 2011–May 2013 for the period of two years from the Dumas vicinity of Tapi estuary. Temperature and pH were analyzed in situ and other parameters were analyzed as per standard references. The WPI in the studied area in the first year ranged between 1.2334 to 7.8266 whereas it varied from 1.797 to 6.439 in second year of the study. The higher value of WPI was observed during the month of December and January in the first year and in the month of December in the second year indicating high polluted nature of the estuary. The overall study revealed the polluted nature of the water ranging from mild to severe during different months in the studied area. It was observed that estuarine environment was polluted by the impact of anthropogenic as well as industrial activities. This study is important as understanding the ecological status of the estuarine habitats is imperative for successful environmental management and sustainable development.

Abstract:
HSI (Habitat Suitability Index) models are a numerical index that describes the habitat quality for individual species of aquatic organism. This models are composed of SI (suitability index) models, which show the cause-and-effect relationships between biomass of target species and the variation of individual water environmental factors. Fish are often used as the environmental indicator species of HSI models, because fish are strongly related to marine algae, sea grass, water quality, and so forth, and fish are predator high in the food chain for the aquatic system. In order to restore the marine environment of Tokyo Bay, in Japan(Fig.1), some SI models have been proposed. However, we have few precision SI models on target fish. Therefore, the objective of this study is to reveal the relationship between seasonal or daily variations of water environment components in Tokyo bay or in offshore sea area of the Pacific coast of Tokyo metro (Fig.1) and the total mass of fish living in Tokyo bay in order to create precision SI models of fish.
