Abstract:

ResumoEste artigo tem como propósito socializar uma prática docente, em uma aula de campo utilizando uma trilha ecológica como recurso didático em uma unidade de conservação no município de Jacarezinho no Estado do Paraná com o intuito de potencializar a percepção ambiental dos alunos. Por meio dos roteiros elaborados pelos alunos do 6º ano foram verificadas as possíveis relações entre o planejamento de uma trilha interpretativa com os objetivos da Interpretação Ambiental e dos documentos utilizados no referencial à luz da Percepção Ambiental. Nas trilhas interpretativas, a Interpretação Ambiental se torna um instrumento da Educação Ambiental ao visar objetivos que envolvem a sensibilização, a compreensão e a responsabilidade dos visitantes para com as questões ambientais. Os resultados obtidos indicam que os alunos elaboraram uma trilha interpretativa que, inconscientemente, se aproxima dos referenciais da Interpretação Ambiental. Palavras-chave: Interpretação Ambiental. Trilha Interpretiva. Educação Ambiental AbstractThis article aimed to socialize a teaching practice, in a field class using a trail as a didactic resource in a conservation unit in Jacarezinho in the State of Paraná to enhance the students' environmental perception. The scripts prepared by the 6th year students the possible relationships were verified between the planning of an interpretive trail with the objectives of the Environmental Interpretation and the documents used in the reference in the light of Environmental Perception. In the interpretative trails the Environmental Interpretation becomes an instrument of Environmental Education by aiming at objectives that involve the awareness, understanding and responsibility of the visitors to the environmental issues. The results indicate that the students elaborated an interpretative trail that unconsciously approaches the reference points of the Environmental Interpretation.

Abstract:

The induced polarization (IP) response of rocks and soils is a function of lithology and fluid conductivity. IP measurements are sensitive to the low‐frequency capacitive properties of rocks and soils, which are controlled by diffusion polarization mechanisms operating at the grain‐fluid interface. IP interpretation typically is in terms of the conventional field IP parameters: chargeability, percentage frequency effect, and phase angle. These parameters are dependent upon both surface polarization mechanisms and bulk (volumetric) conduction mechanisms. Consequently, they afford a poor quantification of surface polarization processes of interest to the field geophysicist. A parameter that quantifies the magnitude of surface polarization is the normalized chargeability, defined as the chargeability divided by the resistivity magnitude. This parameter is proportional to the quadrature conductivity measured in the complex resistivity method. For nonmetallic minerals, the quadrature conductivity and normalized chargeability are closely related to lithology (through the specific surface area) and surface chemistry. Laboratory and field experiments were performed to determine the dependence of the standard IP parameters and the normalized chargeability on two important environmental parameters: salinity and clay content. The laboratory experiments illustrate that the chargeability is strongly correlated with the sample resistivity, which depends on salinity, porosity, saturation, and clay content. The normalized chargeability is shown to be independent of the sample resistivity and it is proportional to the quadrature conductivity, which is directly related to the surface polarization processes. Laboratory‐derived relationships between conductivity and salinity, and normalized chargeability and clay content, are extended to the interpretation of 1‐D and 2‐D field‐IP surveys. In the 2‐D survey, the apparent conductivity and normalized chargeability data are used to segment the images into relatively clay‐free and clay‐rich zones. A similar approach can eventually be used to predict relative variations in the subsurface clay content, salinity and, perhaps, contaminant concentrations.

Abstract:

Natural history facts and concepts were presented to multiaged and experienced individuals through tactual and/or visual interpretive stations along a nature trail. Individuals were tested to indicate knowledge retention after the trail experience. Visual, tactual, and visual/tactual approaches proved to be equally effective treatments in most cases. Results indicate that tactual components to outdoor educational/recreational opportunities can provide enhanced learning experiences for impaired individuals and therefore might be provided as a normalized interpretive trail-design element.

Abstract:

In this discussion, I wish to outline the basic methods of analyzing the paleoenvironmental occurrence of palynomorphs and how this occurrence can be used in paleoecologic interpretation. (Unless otherwise stated, environment as used in this discussion means sedimentary environment.) Palynomorphs have advantages and disadvantages relative to using megafloral remains for the same purpose. Advantages of palynomorphs include their occurrence in large numbers extractable from small volumes of sediment; the usefulness of these large populations for statistical analysis; their occurrence in strata lacking megafossils; and the occurrence of palynomorphs of plants whose preservation potential as megafossils is poor (e.g., fungi, herbaceous plants, algae). Disadvantages of palynomorphs include potential for long-distance transport and reworking; uncertain affinities of many palynomorphs; and bias against zoophilous plants or plants whose pollen contains little sporopollenin (e.g., Populus). Palynomorphs do provide a complementary view of the vegetation which can be of great value if properly used, and whose potential should not be ignored. The best possible analysis would combine megafloral and palynological data at the same level of resolution. Variation of palynology with depositional environment, furthermore, can provide information on individual evolution, community evolution, biostratigraphy, and local variability within depositional environments as well as paleoecology.

Abstract:

Geologic models are based on the interpretation of spatially sparse and limited resolution data sets. Nonunique interpretations often exist, resulting in commercial, safety, and environmental risks. We surveyed 444 experienced geoscientists to assess the validity of their interpretations of a seismic section for which multiple concepts honor the data. The most statistically influential factor in improving interpretation was writing about geologic time. A randomized controlled trial identified for the first time a significant causal link between being explicitly requested to describe the temporal geologic evolution of an interpretation and increased interpretation quality. These results have important implications for interpreting geologic data and communicating uncertainty in models.

Abstract:

AbstractThe legality of the Southern Ocean Sanctuary has been a matter of debate. This paper seeks to explain the Sanctuary as being both legal and illustrative of the development of international environmental law within a new, evolutionary framework. A teleological approach to statutory interpretation could construe the Convention in ways that are supportive of the non-lethal utilisation of cetaceans. Such an interpretation may be supported under the Vienna Convention, whereby if examples of previous practice demonstrating different interpretations of the language in question can be shown, then this practice is evidence that a different interpretation of the convention in question is legitimate. This has been the case with the International Whaling Commission. The paper concludes that the Southern Ocean Sanctuary may be regarded as being both a legal and authoritative example of the way in which the majority of the international community has viewed one area of global environmental concern.

Abstract:

Abstract This article analyses the way in which international tribunals considering treaty- based disputes incorporate extraneous environmental principles through the use of interpretative mechanisms. Increasingly prominent in the international sphere, this approach allows States bringing claims under historical treaties to adopt and enforce contemporary understandings of environmental obligations. This article pursues an extensive survey of cases exhibiting this process, focusing on the interpretative techniques used; the extent to which the tribunals allowed for environmental arguments; and the basis, and use, of environmental norms. These results facilitate a comparative analysis, which concludes that tribunals’ choices regarding each of these features ultimately depends on the underlying treaty’s relationship with intertemporal law. This article thus provides a guide as to how States may effectively enforce environmental obligations, even absent explicit environmental enforcement mechanisms.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is addressed to environmental problems from the perspective of the Qur'an. The focus of the research is the anthropocentric verses in the Qur'an. Anthropocentric verses are verses that have the meaning of humans as the center of the universe or humans as creatures that are super-being. The categorization of anthropocentric verses is compiled thematically (maudhû’î) using a contextual hermeneutic approach. The classification of anthropocentric verses as a result of this research are: 1) Humans as the most glorified creatures 2) Humans as creatures that have power in nature, and 3) Humans as caliphs on earth. Several hermeneutical analyzes of the anthropocentric verse have been obtained. Human must not be arrogant as creatures that degrees are glorified. Humans are instructed not to cause damage on the earth and must be able to do good ihsân to all creatures created by Allah SWT. The obligation of humans as caliphs on earth is to prosper the earth rather than damage the earth

Abstract:

Environmental interpretation is a tool that helps in understanding the landscape and its elements, frequently used in protected areas (PA) to sensitize visitors. In order to improve environmental interpretation and promote bird watching in the Campos Gerais National Park, this paper aims to discuss the importance of interpretative means to achieve the objectives of the PA, presenting a proposal for a panel and a folder of the present avifauna. For this, besides the bibliographical research and experts consulting, we carried out field visits. It is concluded that the proposed tools could improve the interpretation/identification, as well as in the promotion of sustainable tourism potentially in the conservation of birdlife.

Abstract:

Purpose – The aim of this paper is to move toward a holistic model of organizational interpretation under uncertainty. This paper makes a series of novel conceptual propositions regarding the associations between state, effect and response uncertainty and the organizational interpretation process. Design/methodology/approach – This conceptual paper extends existing conceptual work by distinguishing between general and issue-specific scanning and linking the interpretation process to three different types of perceived uncertainty: state, effect and response uncertainty. Findings – It is proposed that environmental scanning leads to lower state and effect uncertainty, i.e. less uncertainty regarding the estimation of probabilities of events occurring in the external environment of the organization and of their consequences. It is further proposed that scanning leads to higher levels of perceived control over events and that the actual interpretation of events, in opportunity/threat terms, drives irregular issue-specific scanning and organizational reactions to such events. Research limitations/implications – The paper suggests a way to test links between organizational interpretation and uncertainty that might help explain and untangle some of the conflicting empirical results found in the extant literature. The paper illustrates how the literature could benefit from re-conceptualizing the perceived environmental uncertainty construct to take into account different types of uncertainty. Practical implications – For practitioners, this paper emphasizes the importance of environmental scanning and how scanning practices can lead to general alertness, to more positive event interpretations and how interpretations form responses to opportunities in the environment. Originality/value – This paper extends on existing work by linking the interpretation process to three different types of uncertainty (state, effect and response uncertainty) with several novel and testable propositions. The paper also differentiates clearly general (regular) scanning from issue-specific (irregular) scanning. Finally, the paper provides a unifying view, piecing together in one picture elements that have so far been dispersed in the literature.

Abstract:

AbstractEnvironmental interpretation can be defined as a kind of non-formal environmental education carried out in predominantly recreational settings within which visitors are provided with opportunities to become more aware of particular concepts and phenomena through first hand experiences. The fundamental objective of environmental interpretation programs is commonly given as increasing visitors' empathy for environmental conservation: the visit becomes a transformatory experience as a result of which it is intended that visitors become more committed to ensuring the continued integrity and sustainability of the environment. This paper argues that, as presently practised, environmental interpretation is informed largely by a somewhat conservative, traditional pedagogy, and as such tends to be didactic, knowledge-driven, and shaped more by technique than by philosophy. An attempt is made to outline, at least conceptually, an interpretive process influenced more by the principles of an alternative educational framework called andragogy, one which acknowledges the (earning characteristics of adults, accentuates the affective domain of learning, and which might ultimately lead to greater levels of visitor involvement in learning processes.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTRather than create another definition this paper explores the philosophy of interpretation in order to identify its core values. This shows that the main difference between environmental interpretation and environmental education is whether affect is considered to be pre-or post-cognitive. To the interpreter particularly significant experiences create deep emotional responses in participants that need no explanation. While moods, feelings and emotions are known to be important to attitude and behaviour change, how they create behaviour change is largely unknown. Interpretation will only make significant advances and become more challenging when it is informed by articulated theory. The implications for practice are that affective rather than cognitive models of learning need to be both employed and explored in future.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article focuses on the interpretation of Directive 2004/35 on the prevention and remedying of environmental damage (Environmental Liability Directive). It singles out eight core issues which are likely to become the subject of future litigation before the European Court of Justice. These are the Directive's scope, exceptions and defences, failures to implement associated Directives, biodiversity damage, orphan damage, prevention, remediation, and enforcement. The analysis is informed by the judicial activism employed by the Court in recent years. The Court's approach has safeguarded the effectiveness of environmental directives, and their compatibility with general principles of EC environmental law. It is argued that the Court will apply a similar teleological approach as regards the Environmental Liability Directive, which should bring about a more stringent regime than its wording at first glance might suggest.

Abstract:

AbstractPeter Singer's (1990 and 1993) interpretations of Biblical texts dealing with the natural world are evaluated in the light of recent Biblical scholarship. The texts in question are among those in the Bible relating to Christian ethical teaching about the natural world. The specific texts Singer examined concern the meaning of dominion and the flood of the earth in the book of Genesis in the Old Testament, particular teaching by the apostle Paul in the book 1 Corinthians in the New Testament, and certain actions by Jesus in the New Testament book of Mark. Singer's interpretations have a lengthy pedigree commonly used to hold Biblical teaching partly responsible for adverse Western attitudes to nature. This article argues that such interpretations contradict a deal of recent Biblical scholarship on the texts at issue.

Abstract:

The advances in information technology change human movement in all aspects, especially urban Muslim communities. The urban Muslim communities such as the Muhammadiyah respond to the technological movements by doing the digital interpretation. This research analyzes the interpretation of the Muhammadiyah which focuses on Tafsir at-Tanwir through the Tarjih Channel of Majelis Tarjih and Tajdid PP. Muhammadiyah. The research addresses two points, namely: the method and the character of digital interpretation by Muhammadiyah presented in Tarjih Channel YouTube. This research uses the descriptive analytical Qualitative in analysing the data. The Data were collected by data condensation, reduction, presentation, and data conclusion. The results of the research show that: 1) a new form or a new media of interaction with the Qur’an in digital era, 2) the tahlily and the maudhu’i methods which are contained in presenting Tafsir at-Tanwir, and 3) the Tafsir at-Tanwir takes part in the development of contemporary interpretations, especially in the dissemination of interpretations digitally. in addition, another contribution is Muslims are now closer and easier in accessing in Qur’anic interpretation than before. These findings indicate that the urban Muslims, especially the Muhammadiyah, contribute to da'wah through the interpretation of Qur'anic verses in digital media on the tarjih channel.

Abstract:

In recent years there has been concern expressed for the need to strengthen and broaden the theoretical foundations of interpretation research and practice. Drawing on interactionist theory and sociological and spatial perspectives, the paper seeks to address this concern by proposing an alternative approach to environmental interpretation that moves us towards the construction of a person-centered sociology of interpretation. A central element in this conceptualization involves moving the focus on to the interpretive experience and the interrelation between interpretive spaces, the selves, and “other” as elements of the interpretive experience. It is argued that the current practice of interpretation is increasingly used as a tool more for controlling the behavior of the visitor and their impacts and less as a medium that facilitates and promotes interaction and exchange between the visitor, the host community, and nature. Thus there is a need to re-examine and re-position the concept of environmental interpretation. It is suggested that the approach put forth in this paper can provide interpreters and park agencies with a theoretically expanded and more holistic approach to interpretation practice.

Abstract:

When discussing the development of interpretations in Indonesia, there will be many figures included in it, including Muhammad Hasbi ash-Shiddiqie who is one of the Indonesian Muslim scholars who mastered many branches of Islamic knowledge including jurisprudence, hadith, and the Qur'an . This article describes M Hasbi Ash-Shiddieqy's thinking in interpreting the Qur'an. This study was analyzed descriptively and analytically by focusing on An-Nur's Tafsir al-Qur'anul Majid which was his interpretation. The interesting thing about this study is that the writer tries to uncover the interpretative schools in this interpretation, by looking at two aspects, namely internal and external. The internal aspects include methods and techniques of interpretation, while the external aspects cover Hasbi's life background including the social conditions of the Indonesian people which then greatly influence the model of interpretation, especially the verses related to the law. The results of this study indicate that the school of thought or style in this interpretation is a style of fiqhi. In interpreting the verses of the law Hasbi always try to present and explain the various opinions of the scholars or history that are in harmony with the verses interpreted, then relate it to the living conditions of the Indonesian people who are so pluralistic. He does not simply accept a law textually or in accordance with a particular school of fiqh, either Hanafi, Hambali, Maliki, or the school he has followed, namely the Shafi'i school.

Abstract:

A mixed method approach was used to evaluate effectiveness of environmental interpretation on visitors’ knowledge, environmental attitude, and pro-environmental behavioral intentions at the International Crane Foundation. Quantitative analysis suggests that participating in personal interpretation has the advantage of improving an audience's knowledge level, but is no more effective than nonpersonal interpretation in influencing attitude and behavioral intentions. Personal and nonpersonal interpretive methods are both effective in promoting knowledge and behavioral intentions for conservation, but do not influence environmental attitude. Qualitative results indicate that participation in personal interpretation makes more of an impression in the visitors’ long-term memory than nonpersonal interpretation.

Abstract:

Abstract As part of Canada's National Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) Program, regulated pulp and paper mills are (and metal mines will be) required to submit an interpretive report describing monitoring results. General guidance has been prepared on how to interpret these EEM data—specifically: 1) which effect endpoints to use, 2) the statistical (or other) approach to use for each endpoint to determine the presence or absence of an effect associated with exposure, and 3) the role of power analysis, α, β, and effect size in determining effects. A statistically significant difference (relative to reference conditions) in any of the effect endpoints is to be considered an exposure-associated effect for the purposes of warranting possible follow-up action. Such an effect does not, however, necessarily indicate ecological, social, or economic significance sufficient to require corrective action. Power analyses should be conducted both at the beginning of a study to determine required sampling effort and at the end of a study to determine whether the power that was actually achieved was sufficient to detect the effect size of interest. A key recommendation is to set α = β as a starting point for data interpretation. The initial recommendations of the general guidance are expected to evolve as environmental effects become better understood.

Abstract:

In order to assess the issue of inequity in exposure to environmental hazards, researchers must identify subgroups whose exposure is disproportionately greater than the average exposure experienced by the remainder of the population. The general population is a complex mixture of subgroups, each consisting of individuals who experience a wide range of exposures and whose ability to cope with the consequences of those exposures is equally varied. Therefore, large efforts are needed to collect data that will enable researchers to determine compreliensively which subgroups are highly exposed and which subgroups have disproportionately greater health effects as a result of exposures to environmental hazards. The interpretation of findings is more of an art than a science, especially when two population subgroups are being contrasted. Addressing environmental equity requires explicit comparisons between groups, and racial and ethnic contrasts will be prominent. It is often difficult to identify the underlying mechanisms that produce particular patterns of results. However, researchers and policy makers must understand the dynamics that may have produced a particular pattern of results so they can separate those factors that are amenable to change from those that are not.

Abstract:

The Society of Wilderness (SOW) is a non-governmental organization in Taiwan that relies on volunteers to protect nature through environmental education. Since volunteers play such an important role in natural resource preservation, more information is needed to understand their participation in SOW. The purpose of this study was to develop an interpretation specialization continuum of environmental volunteerism in Taiwan. A mail-back survey was administered to interpreters volunteering at Er-ge Mountain during the winter of 2005. Forty-five of 48 questionnaires were returned, yielding a 93.8% response rate. The resource knowledge and place attachment scores of volunteer interpreters were combined into a 2 x 2 matrix, thus providing one explanation for their level of activity involvement in SOW. Although volunteer interpreters were distributed throughout the continuum, results showed that highly specialized interpreters had greater activity involvement scores than those who were less specialized. Length of membership in SOW had no effect on their activity involvement scores. This specialization continuum addressed key managerial issues, such as recruitment and retention of volunteer interpreters.
