Ecological and phytocenotic features of the bryophyte component of water protection forests on the Ufa Plateau

The composition of bryophytes in forests of the Ufa Plateau has been studied. The results obtained by ordination methods show that the coverage of epigeic mosses decreases with an increase in tree stand density and proportion of broadleaf tree species as well as in the coverage and average height of herbaceous layer. The main factors determining the distribution of epigeic mosses are illumination level, soil fertility, and the degree of soil development.     

广西国家重点生态功能区县域生态环境与社会经济协调发展关联分析

以广西国家重点生态功能区县域为研究单元,对2015—2020年县域经济社会发展水平和生态环境质量综合水平进行评估,通过权重赋值计算生态环境-社会经济综合实力,综合判断生态环境保护与社会经济发展的协调性。结果表明：研究区域体量小,人均可支配收入低;县域社会经济总体呈正向发展态势,发展速度相对缓慢,低于全区平均县域水平;生态环境综合质量呈现波动变化,部分县域生态环境综合质量增长率为负值;15个县域生态环境质量与社会经济发展为协调,10个县域为基本协调,2个县域处于调和等级。     

Lagging or leading? Exploring the temporal relationship among lagging indicators in mining establishments 2006–2017

Problem: Safety management literature generally categorizes key performance indicators (KPIs) as either leading or lagging. Traditional lagging indicators are measures related to negative safety incidents, such as injuries, while leading indicators are used to predict (and therefore can be used to prevent) the likelihood of future negative safety incidents. Recent theory suggests that traditional lagging indicators also possess characteristics of leading indicators, and vice versa, however empirical evidence is limited. Method: The current research investigated the temporal relationships among establishment-level injuries, near misses, and fatal events using injury and employment data from a sample of 24,910 mining establishments over a 12-year period. Results: While controlling for employee hours worked, establishment-level reported injuries and near misses were associated with of future fatal events across the sample of mines and over the time period studied. Fatal events were also associated with increases in future reported near misses, providing evidence of a cyclic relationship between them. Discussion: These findings challenge the strict categorization of injuries, near misses, and fatal events as lagging indicators. Practical applications: Understanding the KPIs that should be used to manage organizational safety, and how they can be used, is of critical practical importance. The results of the current study suggest that, depending on several considerations, metrics tied to negative safety incidents may be used to anticipate, and possibly prevent, future negative safety events.     

广西水源涵养型重点生态功能区生态状况变化

文章利用2010年、2018年生态环境监测与评价项目土地利用类型数据,通过生态功能指数、生态结构指数和生态胁迫指数综合反映重点生态功能区生态状况,分析 2010-2018年广西水源涵养型重点生态功能区的生态状况变化趋势。结果表明,广西水源涵养型重点生态功能区林地覆盖率明显提升,生态状况改善。其中疏林地及其他林地向有林地、灌木林地转变是水源涵养指数提升的主要原因,退耕还林、封山育林等措施对重点生态功能区生态状况改善发挥重要作用。     

Philippine protected areas are not meeting the biodiversity coverage and management effectiveness requirements of Aichi Target 11

Aichi Target 11 of the Convention on Biological Diversity urges, inter alia, that nations protect at least 17 % of their land, and that protection is effective and targets areas of importance for biodiversity. Five years before reporting on Aichi targets is due, we assessed the Philippines’ current protected area system for biodiversity coverage, appropriateness of management regimes and capacity to deliver protection. Although protected estate already covers 11 % of the Philippines’ land area, 64 % of its key biodiversity areas (KBAs) remain unprotected. Few protected areas have appropriate management and governance infrastructures, funding streams, management plans and capacity, and a serious mismatch exists between protected area land zonation regimes and conservation needs of key species. For the Philippines to meet the biodiversity coverage and management effectiveness elements of Aichi Target 11, protected area and KBA boundaries should be aligned, management systems reformed to pursue biodiversity-led targets and effective management capacity created.
