Contrails are one of the driving contributors to global warming, induced by aviation. The quantification of the impact of contrails on global warming is nontrivial and requires further in-depth investigation. In detail, condensation trails might even change the algebraic sign between a cooling and a warming effect in an order of magnitude, which is comparable to the impact of aviation-emitted carbon dioxides and nitrogen oxides. This implies the necessity to granularly consider the environmental impact of condensation trails in single-trajectory optimization tools. The intent of this study is the elaboration of all significant factors influencing on the net effect of single condensation trails. Possible simplifications will be proposed for a consideration in single-trajectory optimization tools. Finally, the effects of the most important impact factors, such as latitude, time of the year, and time of the day, wind shear, and atmospheric turbulence as well as their consideration in a multi-criteria trajectory optimization tool are exemplified. The results can be used for an arbitrary trajectory optimization tool with environmental optimization intents.

Online shopping is a form of electronic commerce which allows consumers to directly buy goods or services from a seller over the Internet using a web browser. Online shopping provides a good example of business revolution. Ecommerce has made life Simple and innovative of individual and groups. Consumer behavior on online shopping is different from physical market where he/she has access to see the products online shopping sites are fast replacing traditional or physical shops. Over, the years the trust of the customers for online shopping sites has increased considerably. The increase in the number of these sites on one hand has led to a fierce competition which means better and cheaper products for customers. However, at the same time customers have their privacy concerns when it comes to shopping online.

Commuterline plays an important role for transportation planning in Indonesia, and it is essential to learn more on how to motivate people to actively use this public transportation facility. This paper presents an empirical investigation to explore different factors influencing the use of this publica transportation facility. The proposed study develops a questionnaire in Likert scale and distributes it among 374 people who had good experience of using commuterline in their daily lives. The questionnaire is designed to learn the effects of environmental, individual, consumer resources and psychological factors. Using some statistical techniques, the study has determined that psychological factors are the most important elements influencing consumer behavior to use this public transportation followed by consumer resources, product knowledge and individual characteristics.

A strain B1 belonging to Pseudomonas aeruginosa with high petroleum-degrading efficiency was isolated from Dagang oil-field wastewater treatment plant. More than 80% petroleum-degrading efficiency was obtained at 32°C, 200 r/min. According to the orthogonal test, the environmental impact factors influencing petroleum-degrading efficiency of the strain were investigated. The optimum environmental conditions for petroleum degradation were as follows: temperature was 40 °C, pH 8.0, oil inoculation 1 mL, nitrogen content 0.05 g. And the biodegradation efficiency of the strain reached 86.1%.

The COVID-19 pandemic has a direct impact on consumers` behavior and their opinion on food security during the quarantine period. The purpose of the research is to develop recommendations to mitigate the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on food security. In the context of achieving the established goal there was conducted a survey of consumers, online and by phone, on a sample of 250 people, and analyzed cases of malnutrition, change in purchasing behavior, the percentage of income that was spent for food procurement in 2020 during the pandemic. The study showed that one of the key factors influencing consumers’ view of food security is real income.
