Abstract:
To uncover the role played by pioneer plants in the natural succession of vegetation on heavy-metal mine tailings, it is important to explore the sensitive indicator of rhizosphere microbial community performance. We investigated the structure and function of rhizosphere bacterial communities of five pioneer plants growing on lead–zinc mine tailings in Zhejiang, China. Compared with the control, all five pioneer plants differentially affected the structure and function of rhizosphere bacterial communities. The number of bacteria, the activity of β-glucosidase and urease, and species richness indices were the highest in the rhizosphere of Erigeron annuus . The carbon utilization ability and the functional diversity indices were the highest in the rhizosphere of Lysimachia clethroides . There was no significant relationship between the functional or structural diversity indices and the bioavailable heavy-metal content among each species. Clustering analysis and the nonmetric dimensional scaling biplot showed that the rhizosphere bacterial communities of the five pioneer plants were different from those of control, indicating that plant species might be the main driver of microbial community composition on mine tailings. Both L. clethroides and E. annuus might be appropriate candidates for phytoremediation of mine tailings for higher soil microbial community function and species richness in rhizosphere.

Abstract:
Environmental damage included the limestone mining process would remove the topsoil layer, reduce fertility, reduce microbial diversity and eliminate the vegetation that growth above it. Naturally, pioneer plants could grow to replace lost plants. Pioneer plants can be used as a reference for land recovery because these plants could grow on damaged land because they are associated with Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR). In addition, the presence of pioneer plants could inhibit soil erosion due to its root ability to hold the soil from scouring water. This study aimed to determine the characteristics of the initial natural succession process, namely the pioneer post-limestone mining community. This research was conducted by purposive random sampling method at three mining locations, namely Banjaragung Village, 5 years after mine, Maibit Village, 8 years after mine, and Rengel Village, 7 years after mine. Samples were taken for each of the 10 plots of 1x1 m size. The results of this study obtained 5 types of plants with the highest INP, namely: Lamium barbatum, Chromolena odoratum, Tridax procumbens, Waltheria indica, and Digitaria sanguinalis. While the highest diversity index is in the Village of Maibit, Rengel Sub-District, Tuban Regency after 8 years post-mining, which is 2.54.

Abstract:
Reforestation of overburden coal dumps requires new, complex reclamation methods. Competent and well-planned reclamation projects ensure a positive current-state evaluation of disturbed areas. The research objective was to describe the new vegetation that appears on natural areas after industrial disturbance. The study involved pioneer plant communities that developed on a coal dump slope on the Taldinskiy coal field, Kuzbass, in the summer of 2021.The research involved a wide range of engineering and geological surveys, as well as a set of methods of geobotanical, taxonomic, biomorphological, and ecological analyses. The data were obtained by remote sensing. The route reconnaissance of coal dumps with uncontrolled vegetation revealed the following results. The total plant cover on undisturbed areas had a mosaic pattern and ranged from 70 to 75%. The forest plat communities consisted of 101 plant species and 33 families. The maximal species diversity belonged to the following families: Asteraceae – 13 species, Fabaceae – 11 species, Poaceae – 8 species, Brassicaceae, Lamiaceae, Ranunculaceae, and Rosaceae – 5 species, Apiaceae, Boraginaceae, Campanulaceae, Caryophyllaceae, Chenopodiaceae, Cyperaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Equisetaceae, Pinaceae, Plantaginaceae, Polygonaceae, Salicaceae, and Scrophulariaceae – 2–4 species. The Taldinskiy coal field dump was evaluated as a technogenically disturbed site with a low biomorphological and species diversity. It had a larger share of weeds, and its ratio of plant communities differed from the background phytocenosis. The type of vegetation corresponded to the first stage of plant development on technogenic areas and was defined as the stage of sparse pioneer vegetation

Abstract:
Mine tailings are a source of potentially toxic metals (PTMs) worldwide. Phytoremediation is a low-cost green technology that uses metal-tolerant plants to extract these contaminants and rehabilitate the soil. In mine tailing restoration efforts, it can be beneficial to introduce species that can facilitate the colonization of other plants (i.e., nurse plant syndrome). In this study, the phytoremediation and nursing potential of two species adapted to metalliferous soil, Aloe burgersfortensis and A. castanea, were evaluated for the first time. An experiment was performed with aloe plants grown in pots containing potting soil, platinum tailings, and gold tailings. Leaves were assessed for bioaccumulation of PTMs. Seeds of Bermuda grass and African daisy, two successional pioneers, were planted with the aloes and had their developmental parameters evaluated after 30 days. Allelopathic effects were also assessed, with seeds of the pioneer plants infused with root extracts of the aloes from the different soil treatments. A. castanea demonstrated greater potential for the bioaccumulation of Cd, Co, Mn, Ni, and Zn in the tailings. The presence of aloes benefited germination rates, leaf count, length, and plant biomass of grasses and daisies in the mine tailings, without significant allelopathic effects. Therefore, aloes—especially A. castanea—should be employed in the rehabilitation of metal-contaminated soils to extract metals and to aid the establishment of other species to enhance the phytoremediation processes.

Abstract:
Abstract The greened ex-tin mine comprises planted timber species of Acacia mangium, Hopea odorata and Khaya ivorensis. The ex-tin mine was formerly a lowland dipterocarps mixed forest. The man-made forest was established at 4 x 5 m spacing or 500 stem/ha on slime tailings. However, high mortality of the timber species due to damages by wild pigs and farm animals have reduced the plantation of 3.2 ha to only 93 stems of Acacia mangium, 92 stems of Hopea odorata and 130 stems of Khaya ivorensis at 20 years after planting. The regeneration covering the planting line was kept and the planting spaces in-between the planting lines were cleared for planting of another 14 species of endemic, endangered and threatened tree species (EETS). The ex-situ conservation program of planting 1500 stems of EETS to the 3 ha site was sponsored by Asian Forest Cooperation Organization (AFoCO). The 100% vegetation survey was carried out 4 years after planting. The species richness, Shannon diversity index and species evenness were computed for the nurse stand, and the nurse stands with EETS. The results obtained for species richness, Shannon Index (H) and Shannon Evenness index (EH) of the nurse stand and nurse stand with EETS was 24, 1.46, 0.46 and 38, 2.30, 0.63, respectively. The nurse stand with EETS has increased in species richness, H and EH of nurse stand to 58%. and 36.9%, respectively. More importantly, none of the introduced EETS was found in the composition of the natural regeneration of the 20 years old nurse stand. The 21 species naturally regenerated in the nurse stand were an only pioneer and late pioneer species. This shows that ex-tin mine after the reclamation efforts of planting timber species and the natural regeneration will not be able to regain the initial species composition of a lowland dipterocarps forest. The domestication technology of EETS developed in this project is reproducible. The project has successfully preserved the 14 EETS and the site shall be a demonstration plot for the future seed production area.

Abstract:
Depuis les années 1860 en Nouvelle-Calédonie, de nombreux textes évoquent les activités de la mine, son organisation, sa structure de commandement, la vie des mineurs et autres activités liées à la mine, les conflits entre les catégories sociales. L'attention se porte notamment sur Jules Garnier et son récit de voyage, sur les nouvelles de Baudoux et sa " Chanson des cobaleurs ", en passant par les romans et nouvelles de Mariotti, Quel langage spécifique est recrée par les textes littéraires ? Comment rendent-ils compte du véritable argot minier qui a existé et existe peut-être encore ? Ils témoignent surtout d'une partie de l'imaginaire de la mine développé en Nouvelle-Calédonie : celui qui s'est élaboré à travers le prisme changeant de l'idéologie coloniale de 1853 à 1953, c'est-à-dire, avec le souci d'écrire une " légende ", ou une "épopée " et de participer à la grandeur de l'empire colonial français. C'est, en effet, pendant cette période que la plupart des termes et des représentations -- notamment celles du pionnier -- qui servent encore à évoquer l'exploitation minière, ont été crées par les auteurs qui ont occupé l'espace littéraire de la Nouvelle-Calédonie. Pour traiter des représentations d'une notion ou d'une réalité dans un texte appartenant à la littérature, il a été nécessaire d'aborder le texte comme une construction. En effet, même les témoignages qui semblent marqués de la plus pure authenticité sont d'abord des faits de discours qu'il faut démonter, dont on décrit les relations dans un modèle qui est toujours dynamique. De même, les évolutions dans les représentations suivent ou anticipent les mutations historiques avec une temporalité qui propre à la vie imaginaire et symbolique des collectivités humaines.

Abstract:
The local dominant mosses were used to study the revegetation of the high and steep slope of the open-pit mine. Based on the improved Line Intercept Method (LIM), the rapid screening of dominant pioneer mosses for mine reforestation was carried out and the impact of habitat on the development of wild mosses was preliminarily explored. The results showed that 6 species of mosses belonging to 5 families were found in the representative plots, and Barbula unguiculata was the dominant species among the pioneer mosses. The important values of mosses were as follows: Barbula unguiculata > Brachymenium exile > Haplocladium microphyllum > Amblystegium serpens,> Sematophyllum subpinnatum > Thuidium glaucinoides. Altitude, temperature and humidity are important factors affecting the development of wild Barbula unguiculata. The improved LIM was applied in field experiment to obtain and quickly screen dominant moss, this method was also of great significance to other research areas. It is a development direction for mine regreening engineering to select superior local moss species suitable for the regional environment as the re greening seed source.

Abstract:
The medical establishment only very belatedly came to accept that scabies is directly caused by the itch mite, Sarcoptes scabiei. The father of French dermatology, Jean-Louis Alibert, in the early nineteenth century, encouraged his pupils to further explore the nature of scabies in Hôpital Saint-Louis, in Paris. In 1834 the Corsican medical student, Simon Francois Renucci repeatedly isolated scabies mites from patients with The Itch to an audience of the distinguished Parisian faculty. The esteemed Austrian dermatologist Ferdinand von Hebra further characterized scabies in his 1844 treatise, leaving no serious doubt that the itch mite was the true cause of scabies. This chapter includes a look at the more modern medical history of scabies and discusses the work of Alibert, Renucci, and von Hebra.

Abstract David Van Koevering offered a barter: he’d take Bob’s instruments on tour in exchange for free equipment. The Synthesizer 10 appealed to him for its convenience and portability—features lacking in Bob’s modular equipment. Keith Emerson pioneered live Moog modular performances (with the Nice at Royal Festival Hall; with Emerson, Lake, & Palmer at the Isle of Wight; and on recordings like “Lucky Man”). Emerson called the Moog “the beast,” for its size and complexity. Gershon Kingsley presented Moog modulars at Carnegie Hall. But Bill Hemsath’s Min A and Mini B prototypes appealed to players as smaller, practical synths for concerts. David Borden was the first to test-drive the Min A with his Mother Mallard ensemble, and Chris Swansen used it at the Daniel Berrigan rally at Cornell. Sun Ra premiered the Mini B at the Red Garter, followed by Dick Hyman at the Eastman School.

Central Asia (CA) region consist of five countries, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, which is the core of Asian continent. Ancient Silk Road has played the critical role of connecting the East and West through the history and today. CA has a rich history, culture and nature conditions as pull factors for world tourism market. This region as a new destination is becoming more important in the international travel and tourism market. All five countries have been experiencing transition period and have been facing some domestic and international issues with respect to tourism perspective. In this study, Turkish travelers for different motivations ranging from business to vacation visiting Central Asia are asked to evaluate the region based on some personal and expectation attributes. The investigation includes some fundamental factors such as key desires to travel to Central Asia or some mind-set not visiting there. For this purpose, approximately 200 responses are gathered from persons traveling there for different motivations including business, travel and so on. Multi Dimensional Scaling is run in order to display graphically the attributes on two dimensional graphs. This research is a pioneer work that sheds light on the future studies that will be conducted by both academicians and practitioners. Also, it reflects the Turkish travelers’ expectations to CA region as a tourism destination. The main findings can be summarized as the key factors leading people either to travel CA or not to travel there by gender, country and some other personal attributes.

Abstract:
The Open University of Mauritius (OUM) pioneered the design and delivery of a MOOC, ‘Sustainable Development in Business’ in 2019, in collaboration with the Commonwealth of Learning (COL), as part of COL’s strategy for “increasing access to learners on environmental awareness”. This MOOC facilitated access to SDG materials to a global audience where participants would learn from each other: challenges, lessons and good practice. There were two intakes in 2020 and 2021 as the world was battling against Covid-19. With more than 13,000 registered participants in the four runs of the MOOC (May 2019, November 2019, June 2020, and April 2021), this highly successful MOOC has been a learning experience for the local team. This paper aims to explore the challenges and lessons learnt at the different stages: conception and design of the MOOC bearing in mind cultural diversity, marketing, managing multidisciplinary teams from different institutions, using the mooKIT platform and using feedback to review the MOOC. Being the first-ever Mauritian-led MOOC with predominantly Mauritian learners, this paper contributes to the literature on the lived experiences of the collaborators in developing and facilitating the MOOC. It is hoped that the lessons learnt will empower other institutions embarking on MOOCs to build impactful MOOCs.

Abstract PETRONAS had embarked on an ambitious thru tubing ESP journey in 2016 and had installed global first truly rig less offshore Thru Tubing ESP (TTESP) in 2017. To replicate the success of the first installation, TTESP's were installed in Field – T. However, all these three TTESP's failed to produce fluids to surface. This paper provides the complete details of the troubleshooting exercise that was done to find the cause of failure in these wells. The 3 TTESP's in Field – T were installed as per procedure and was ready to be commissioned. However, during the commissioning, it was noticed that the discharge pressure of the ESP did not build-up and the TTESP's tripped due to high temperature after 15 – 30 mins of operation. Hence none of the 3 TTESP's could be successfully commissioned. Considering the strategic importance of TTESP's in PETRONAS's artificial lift plans, detailed troubleshooting exercise was done to find the root cause of failure to produce in these three wells. This troubleshooting exercise included diesel bull heading which gave some key pump performance related data. The three TTESP's installed in Field – T were of size 2.72" and had the potential to produce an average 1500 BLPD at 80% water cut. The TTESP deployment was fully rigless and was installed using 0.8" ESP power cable. The ESP and the cable was hung-off from the surface using a hanger – spool system. The entire system is complex, and the installation procedure needs to be proper to ensure a successful installation. The vast amount of data gathered during the commissioning and troubleshooting exercise was used for determining the failure reason and included preparation of static and dynamic well ESP model. After detailed technical investigative work, the team believes to have found the root cause of the issue which explains the data obtained during commission and troubleshooting phase. The detailed troubleshooting workflow and actual data obtained will be presented in this paper. A comprehensive list of lessons learnt will also be presented which includes very important aspects that needs to be considered during the design and installation of TTESP. The remedial plan is finalized and will be executed during next available weather window. The key benefit of a TTESP installation is its low cost which is 20% – 30% of a rig-based ESP workover in offshore. Hence it is expected that TTESP installations will pick-up globally and it's important for any operator to fully understand the TTESP systems and the potential pain points. PETRONAS has been a pioneer in TTESP field, and this paper will provide details on the learning curve during the TTESP journey.

Abstract:
The concept of “Homeodynamic Environments and Products” is proposed to understand the environment-product-human organism relationship from the inseparable connection between body, mind and spirituality. This concept is coined by the co-founders of the DASMind – UNICAMP [iar.unicamp.br/dasmind]. Three pillars guide the applications of the “Homeodynamic Environments and Products” concept: [1] “Homeodynamic Architectural Environments,” preventive and/or restorative, relate to applying the concept to the study, planning, design and construction of architectural environments. This pillar aims to analyze and understand the user’s environments, whether residential, educational, cultural, corporate, commercial, among others, in the body, mind, spirituality relationship. Whether in the design or physical sphere, it reveals the cooperation between the architectural elements and the human organism to restore the body’s homeodynamic balance, aiming at its health and well-being. Associated with smart biointerfaces (ZUANON, 2013-2020), this pillar also evaluates and verifies the level of homeodynamic quality of environments in their various purposes: care; cure; labor; exchange of knowledge; leisure; among others. Based on the evaluation, it proposes design solutions conducive to the inner balance of its users, aligned with the purpose of each environment. [2] “Homeodynamic Urban Environments” are supported by urban fabrics, although they do not necessarily represent a simple change of scale, from the architectural scale to the urban scale. In other words, reflecting on the relationships that aim to promo or restore the health and well-being of individuals, as inhabitants or users of the city, in many cases relates to the actual scale of urban design, to the interstice of buildings, to green areas, to small squares and other open urban environments (ZUANON et al., 2020). Moreover, this pillar signals a throwback to classic urban planners who were pioneers in focusing on spatial perception and the relationships of territoriality, privacy, personalization and crowding (MONTEIRO and TURCZYN, 2018). The various humanization studies also provide valuable groundwork for “Homeodynamic Urban Environments,” which, alongside smart biointerfaces (ZUANON, 2013-2020), transfer important contributions to design and the implementation of healthy cities. [3] “Homeodynamic Products,” whether preventive and/or restorative, relate to the study, design and development of physical, digital and/or physical-digital products capable of “feeling” and “reacting” in real time and empathically to the neuropsychophysiological condition of their users, without interrupting the performance of their routine activities. This pillar operates in deep convergence with smart biointerfaces. In this sense, it correlates contributions from affective computing, cognitive computing, computer vision and wearable computing with the transdisciplinary and complex framework of its concept (ZUANON, 2013-2020). In this intimate connection with the human organism, homeodynamic products provide access to and interaction with the neurobiological scale of affects, emotions and feelings, during different experiences centered on the human being, whether in architectural or urban environments. Furthermore, they enable a consistent interpretation of the body’s overall conditions in response to the somatosensory and sensorimotor stimuli produced by those environments.Thus, in establishing a direct relationship with the human organism, “Homeodynamic Environments and Products,” whether preventive and/or restorative, in their architectural, urban and object scales, prove to be greatly relevant to life regulation and survival, in both current and future social contexts.

Abstract:
This paper describes two pedagogical practices based on Francis Bacon’s graphic Works. One in a curricular context, held at Escola Superior Artística do Porto, and the other in an extracurricular context held at Universidade Lusófona do Porto (both in Portugal), which aimed to stimulate students towards a critical analysis and interpretation of Francis Bacon's work and its recreation using contemporary digital media. This initiative was integrated in the Graphic Works of Francis Bacon exhibition at the World of Wine Museum in Vila Nova de Gaia and was the result of a collaboration between this Museum, the Academy and the Renschdael Art Foundation, a collaboration that aimed to give voice and life to a debate emerging from the exhibition of the work of art and its multimedia translation. Hence, it was intended to complement the exhibition of the artist's works with a multimedia language, through multiple interpretations and digital animations of the Painter's work made by the students and targeted at digital natives as one stream of the exhibition was to target local primary and secondary schools.The participants involved in this project came from various BAs, including Communication Design, Fine Arts and Intermediate, Visual Arts - Photography, Cinema and Audiovisual, Audiovisual Communication and Multimedia, Video Games and Multimedia Applications. This allowed to bring together multidisciplinary groups of students with different profiles and backgrounds, contributing to a myriad of results both in visual terms and technological resources, which included approaches such as: the use of techniques close to rotoscoping in which students created drawings frame by frame over the original images; the exploration of cut-out animation techniques; the recreation of Francis Bacon's work in 3D; explorations of image manipulation, editing, and video effects.In an academic context, these practices resulted in an in-depth knowledge of the work of an artist from a generation different from that of the students; an opportunity for them to work with a real client, applying in a project the knowledge obtained in various curricular units of the BAs they are attending; and the possibility of seeing their work integrated in an international exhibition. As regards to the Graphic Works of Francis Bacon exhibition, this academic project brought a new dynamic to the space combining graphic works by the Painter with multiple interpretations of a generation to whom digital media are omnipresent.In this paper, the pedagogical practices adopted in both Universities are described, projects by students are analyzed as well as the contribution that these projects brought to the exhibition through information gathered from visitors, from articles published on the event and through an interview conducted with the exhibition curator.The exhibition, according to the commissioner, Charlotte Crapts, had an "impressive" turnover bearing in mind that the country was going through Covid restrictions. In the commissioner’s view, the multimedia interventions created a bridge with the educational sector and following this, the exhibition interacted with a great number of youngsters. This was a pioneer exercise in the exhibition space that will be followed in future exhibitions.

Abstract:
Australia's and China's resources (e.g. Olympic Dam Cu-U-Au-Ag and Bayan Obo REE deposits) highlight how discovery and mining of iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG), iron oxide±apatite (IOA) and affiliated primary critical metal deposits in metasomatic iron and alkali-calcic (MIAC) mineral systems can secure a long-term supply of critical metals for Canada and its partners. In Canada, MIAC systems comprise a wide range of undeveloped primary critical metal deposits (e.g. NWT NICO Au-Co-Bi-Cu and Québec HREE-rich Josette deposits). Underexplored settings are parts of metallogenic belts that extend into Australia and the USA. Some settings, such as the Camsell River district explored by the Dene First Nations in the NWT, have infrastructures and 100s of km of historic drill cores. Yet vocabularies for mapping MIAC systems are scanty. Ability to identify metasomatic vectors to ore is fledging. Deposit models based on host rock types, structural controls or metal associations underpin the identification of MIAC-affinities, assessment of systems' full mineral potential and development of robust mineral exploration strategies. This workshop presentation reviews public geoscience research and tools developed by the Targeted Geoscience Initiative to establish the MIAC frameworks of prospective Canadian settings and global mining districts and help de-risk exploration for IOCG, IOA and affiliated primary critical metal deposits. The knowledge also supports fundamental research, environmental baseline assessment and societal decisions. It fulfills objectives of the Canadian Mineral and Metal Plan and the Critical Mineral Mapping Initiative among others. The GSC-led MIAC research team comprises members of the academic, private and public sectors from Canada, Australia, Europe, USA, China and Dene First Nations. The team's novel alteration mapping protocols, geological, mineralogical, geochemical and geophysical framework tools, and holistic mineral systems and petrophysics models mitigate and solve some of the exploration and geosciences challenges posed by the intricacies of MIAC systems. The group pioneers the use of discriminant alteration diagrams and barcodes, the assembly of a vocab for mapping and core logging, and the provision of field short courses, atlas, photo collections and system-scale field, geochemical, rock physical properties and geophysical datasets are in progress to synthesize shared signatures of Canadian settings and global MIAC mining districts. Research on a metamorphosed MIAC system and metamorphic phase equilibria modelling of alteration facies will provide a foundation for framework mapping and exploration of high-grade metamorphic terranes where surface and near surface resources are still to be discovered and mined as are those of non-metamorphosed MIAC systems.
