Impact de l’exploitation artisanale de l’or sur l’environnement dans le secteur de Dimonika (Massif forestier du Mayombe, Congo)
Get PDFL’orpaillage est très actif dans le secteur de Dimonika et ses environs. Cette activité bien que génératrice de revenus à la population locale, est réputée source de dégradations environnementales. Cette étude vise à évaluer l’impact de l’orpaillage sur l’environnement de ce secteur. La méthodologie adoptée a été axée sur les enquêtes afin de caractériser les pratiques d’orpaillage, identifier les impacts générés sur l’environnement et comprendre le rôle et l’implication des structures de tutelle dans la gestion durable des écosystèmes forestier ; les levés topographiques ; la description des impacts générés ; l’analyse des eaux des cours d’eau orpaillés et des pertes du couvert végétal à partir des SIG et télédétection. Les résultats montrent que l’orpaillage occupe à plus de 50% les jeunes du secteur, dont l’âge varie entre 20 et 40 ans. On assiste à une avancée alarmante des sites d’orpaillage : gisements alluvionnaires (57%), éluvionnaires (41%) et filoniens (3%), avec des techniques non appropriées (défrichage, coupe et déracinement des arbres, mauvaise utilisation des détecteurs des métaux, excavation non remblayée, étalage des couches lithologiques, exploitation et déviation des lits des cours d’eau) sans respect environnemental, ni mesure de prévention et d’atténuation des impacts générés. Les principaux impacts identifiés sont des excavations pouvant atteindre 8 m de profondeur (29 % sur les sites éluvionnaires contre 15% sur les sites alluvionnaires). Les déchets miniers abandonnés sur ces sites (18 et 17% respectifs). 15% des cours d’eau sont crevassés et déviés sur des longueurs moyennes de 9 m avec pour conséquence la perturbation du régime hydrographique. Avec une turbidité moyenne de 114 NTU, les eaux des cours d’eau orpaillés sont impropres à la consommation selon SEQ-Eau (2003). La végétation n’est pas épargnée de ce désastre, les arbres non coupés tombent parce que déracinés surtout sur les sites éluvionnaires et la perte du couvert végétal s’est rapidement amplifiée et atteint 1058 ha en 2 ans avec l’utilisation des détecteurs de métaux. L’utilisation de ces détecteurs poserait un réel problème en milieu forestier car la régénération de la végétation est très lente à cause des inversions lithologiques qui sont associées à cette méthode.
Gold panning is very active in the Dimonika sector and its surroundings. Although this activity generates income for the local population, it is known to be a source of environmental degradation. This study aims to assess the impact of gold panning on the environment in this sector. The methodology adopted focused on surveys to characterize gold panning practices, identify the impacts generated on the environment and understand the role and involvement of supervisory structures in the sustainable management of forest ecosystems; topographic surveys; description of the impacts generated; analysis of the waters of gold-panned streams and losses of plant cover using GIS and remote sensing. The results show that gold panning occupies more than 50% of young people in the sector, whose ages vary between 20 and 40 years. There is an alarming increase in gold mining sites: alluvial deposits (57%), eluvial deposits (41%) and vein deposits (3%), with inappropriate techniques (clearing, cutting and uprooting trees, improper use of metal detectors, unfilled excavation, spreading of lithological layers, exploitation and diversion of river beds) without environmental respect, nor measures to prevent and mitigate the impacts generated. The main impacts identified are excavations that can reach 8 m deep (29% on eluvial sites compared to 15% on alluvial sites). Mining waste abandoned on these sites (18 and 17% respectively). 15% of watercourses are cracked and diverted over average lengths of 9 m, resulting in disruption of the hydrographic regime. With an average turbidity of 114 NTU, the waters of the gold-mined streams are unfit for consumption according to SEQ-Eau (2003). Vegetation is not spared from this disaster, uncut trees fall because they are uprooted, especially on eluvial sites, and the loss of plant cover has rapidly increased and reached 1058 ha in 2 years with the use of metal detectors. The use of these detectors would pose a real problem in forest environments because the regeneration of vegetation is very slow due to the lithological inversions associated with this method

Theoretical Background of Input-Output Analysis and its Application in Albania
Get PDFThe input-output (IO) method is widely used in economic analysis to understand the relationship between sectors of the economy. One of the major advantages of the IO method is its ability to capture the direct and indirect effects of different policies in one sector on other sectors of the economy. The IO table system is a crucial component of the European System of Accounts, a standardized framework for the production of European Union statistics on economic activities. Utilizing various mathematical techniques and methods, the IO analysis shows adaptability as a tool of analysis. In comparison to alternative methods, one of the primary benefits of the IO method is its flexibility in incorporating aggregate data. This enables researchers and policymakers to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the interrelationships between different sectors of the economy as well as the effects of different policies on multiple sectors of the economy. This paper examines several studies by different authors related to IO analysis, which use official data from IO tables across various countries to analyze the economy of a country, region, and global impact. This paper evaluates the limitations of the application of the IO method in Albania, considering the techniques of constructing symmetrical IO tables and the types of analyses conducted through these data
Risk-Based Asset Allocation in Factor Investing: Exploring the Inverse Factor Volatility Strategy
Get PDFThis study evaluates the effectiveness of the Inverse Factor Volatility strategy within the context of factor investing, comparing its performance to the conventional Risk Parity strategy. Using quantitative techniques, including portfolio construction and performance metrics analysis, this research employs data from five individual equities spanning the years 2000 to 2022. The methodology involves constructing portfolios based on Inverse Factor Volatility and Risk Parity principles and analyzing performance metrics, including mean returns, risk-adjusted returns, and drawdowns. The findings indicate that, compared to Risk Parity, Inverse Factor Volatility offers superior drawdowns, risk-adjusted returns, and mean returns. These results suggest that Inverse Factor Volatility may be a more effective strategy for portfolio management and could represent an advancement over traditional factor investing methods. The conclusions of this study hold significant implications for portfolio managers seeking to optimize their investment strategies
Virtuous Legislation: The Royal Decree for the Sustainable Management of the Woods of Serra San Bruno, Stilo, Mongiana, and Ferdinandea
Get PDFThe Saving Forests Decree of 1773, issued by Ferdinand IV of Bourbon, marked a fundamental step in the sustainable management of the forests of the Serre Calabresi. Metal mining and processing in the region dates back to ancient times, with Greek colonies exploiting local resources for tools and coins. With the arrival of the Normans, the mines became strategic and were granted to the Carthusian monks, and the Norman smelting furnace improved military production. Under Ferdinand II, the Ferdinandea foundry reached its peak, producing high-quality weapons. The Salvaboschi decree demonstrated a growing awareness of the need to balance industrial needs with environmental protection. This study analyzes the decree, examining how its provisions are in line with modern environmental protection laws. The analysis of this study focuses on the provisions of the Salvaboschi decree and their compliance with current environmental protection laws. The main objective of the decree was to implement sustainable forestry practices through regulated logging cycles to prevent deforestation and promote natural regeneration. Analysis of the law reveals its progressive nature and its conformity with modern principles of environmental conservation. This historic legislation testifies to the early recognition of the importance of sustainable resource management and the foresight of the Bourbon administration in implementing practices that would benefit both the environment and industrial development. Through the study and analysis of the rules present in the document, it was possible to make significant comparisons with the laws in force. The decree demonstrates considerable foresight in the protection of natural and forest heritage. This document represents an important step towards environmental protection, highlighting a concrete and proactive commitment to the protection of natural resources. The ability to compare existing regulations with new provisions offers a clear and in-depth perspective on legislative evolution in environmental matters, confirming the importance of regulatory updates to address contemporary ecological challenges
Water, Sanitation, Waste Management, and Professional Activities in Relation to Diseases with Neighboring Citizens of Congo Rivers in the Brazzaville Agglomeration (Republic of Congo)
Get PDFSituated on the right bank of the Pool Malébo, in the Congo River basin, the city of Brazzaville is rich in potential water resources. These resources are polluted by human practices that deteriorate the quality of the soil and, consequently, the quality of the water. The aim of this study is therefore to inventory the activities carried out by the population around watercourses, to investigate waste management and to assess the impact on water and soil quality. The survey sample was selected on the basis of impacted zones located between 250 m and 750 m around watercourses. The aim of this study is therefore to inventory the activities carried out by the population around watercourses, to investigate waste management and to assess the impact on water and soil quality. The survey form was drawn up using Sphinx Plus2-Edition Lexica-V5 software. The survey data was entered into the same software, then transferred to Excel to generate the graphical. 880 people were surveyed, the most dominant age group was 25-48 years old, i.e. a rate of 66%. The most dominant gender was female, with a rate of 54%. The average age of the respondents was lower secondary school, and they were generally employed in the private sector. Commercial activities (restaurants/bars, pharmacies, grocery stores/ butchers, markets, etc.) are the most common economic activity, with a rate of around 70%; 59% of these activities are located close to or very close to the watercourse (750-1000 m). The activities that contribute to soil degradation, and consequently water degradation, in the city of Brazzaville are: 59% the dumping of household waste and/or wastewater on the ground and 32% uncontrolled urbanization. The study shows that soil and water pollution in Brazzaville is caused by poor management of household waste and uncontrolled urbanization
Contribution à l’étude taxonomique et à la connaissance des Bolets de l’Ouest du Burkina Faso (Afrique de l’Ouest)
Get PDFLa recherche de connaissance sur la diversité de la flore mycologique du Burkina Faso est l’un des objectifs que s’est fixée l’équipe des Mycologues de la communauté scientifique universitaire burkinabé à l’orée 2050. Pour atteindre cet objectif des sorties de terrain ont été sont organisées entre 2017 et 2019 pour collecter des champignons macroscopiques dans les différentes formations végétales du pays. C’est ainsi que de façon exhaustive, tous les Boletaceae des galeries forestières de Dan et de Toussianbandougou à l’Ouest du Burkina Faso ont été collectés. Pour ce faire, tous les carpophores des bolets rencontrés, ont été photographiés, et les caractères fugaces, les plantes-hôtes et les coordonnées géographiques notés. Puis les macromycètes sont soigneusement collectés, décrits macroscopiquement, puis séchés et décrits microscopiquement et identifiés. Ainsi, au total, soixante-neuf (69) carpophores ont été collectés et répartis dans neuf (9) genres et trente-six (36) espèces de bolets. La galerie forestière de Toussianbandougou s’est montrée la plus richesse et la plus diversifiée en bolets avec 46 carpophores renfermant spécifiquement les genres Tylopilus avec huit (8) espèces, Afroboletus qui totalise deux (2) espèces et Hourangia qui compte une (1) espèce. Le genre Boletus est commun dans les deux (2) sites prospectés mais il s’est montré plus abondant dans la galerie forestière de Toussianbandougou. Cependant, il est à noter que bon nombre de formations végétales subissent une forte pression anthropique cumulée à l’insécurité d’où l’urgence de multiplier les fouilles mycologiques dans les formations végétales du pays encore accessibles.
Knowledge of the diversity of the mycological flora of Burkina Faso is one of the objectives set by the Mycology team of Burkina Faso's university scientific community for the year 2050. To achieve this objective, field trips have been organized since 2012 to collect macroscopic fungi from the country's various plant formations. In this way, all the Boletaceae in the Dan and Toussianbandougou gallery forests in western Burkina Faso have been collected in a more or less exhaustive manner. Every boletus carpophore encountered was photographed, and the fleeting characteristics, host plants, and geographical coordinates were noted. The macromycetes were then carefully collected, dried, described, and identified. Sixty-nine (69) carpophores were collected, divided into nine (9) genera and thirty-six (36) species. The Toussianbandougou gallery forest proved to be the richest and most diverse in boletus, with 46 carpophores specifically containing the genera Tylopilus, Hourangia, and Afroboletus. The genus Boletus was found in both sites surveyed but was more abundant in the Toussianbandougou forest. However, it should be noted that a good number of plant formations are subject to strong anthropic pressure combined with insecurity, hence the urgent need to increase mycological excavations in the country's plant formations that are still accessible
