Abstract Forests play an important role in water conservation. It is important to study the relationship between forest water conservation (FWC) and forestry investment. Based on official statistics and ecological network observation data in China from 1999 to 2013, this paper for the first time uses correlation analysis and regression analysis methods to analyze the relationship between FWC and forest silviculture investment in fixed assets (FSIFA). Results show that FWC and FSIFA have a strong correlation and a strong influence, correlation coefficient is around 0.96. The amount of annual forest water conservation is increased with an increase in investment in fixed assets. The study also found that FSIFA affecting annual FWC lags more than 1 year, showing that FSIFA cannot play a role in water conservation immediately. The research also discussed other affecting factors on FWC, such as forest coverage rate, economic development level and forest quality improvement, etc. Their effects were also found to lag 1–5 years. Finally, the paper predicts the amount of annual FWC from 2014 to 2020 and gives some suggestions to strengthen investment in forest fixed assets and improve management of forest resources so as to promote the development of benefits of FWC.

Peroxyformic Acid

Abstract. The existence and importance of peroxyformic acid (PFA) in the atmosphere has been under controversy. We present here, for the first time, the observation data for PFA from four field measurements carried out in China. These data provided powerful evidence that PFA can stay in the atmosphere, typically in dozens of pptv level. The relationship between PFA and other detected peroxides was examined. The results showed that PFA had a strong positive correlation with its homolog, peroxyacetic acid, due to their similar sources and sinks. Through an evaluation of PFA production and removal rates, we proposed that the reactions between peroxyformyl radical (HC(O)O2) and formaldehyde or the hydroperoxyl radical (HO2) were likely to be the major source and degradation into formic acid (FA) was likely to be the major sink for PFA. Based on a box model evaluation, we proposed that the HC(O)O2 and PFA chemistry was a major source for FA under low NOx conditions. Furthermore, it is found that the impact of the HC(O)O2 and PFA chemistry on radical cycling was dependent on the yield of HC(O)O2 radical from HC(O) + O2 reaction. When this yield exceeded 50%, the HC(O)O2 and PFA chemistry should not be neglected for calculating the radical budget. To make clear the exact importance of HC(O)O2 and PFA chemistry in the atmosphere, further kinetic, field and modeling studies are required.

This article analyzes the relationship between inflation, increase of investment in fixed assets, monetary policy, financial openness, national savings, macro-economic climate index, deposit rate, and the development of insurance industry in China. We set the incremental indicators as the variables and constructed an analysis integrating a multiple linear regression, stepwise regression, and robustness analysis, and used historical monthly data sample during the period of January 2004 to December 2017 for empirical analysis. The result indicates that (a) the national savings and macro-economic climate index are the major factors that influence the development of insurance industry in China by now; (b) to improve the development of insurance industry, both the economic growth and people’s income should continue to advance; and (c) financial openness should be paid more attention to, which is insufficient, and there is lack of competitive vitality in the whole insurance market.

This paper explores the relationship between the accumulation of human capital in the regions of Russia and the volume of foreign direct investment, as well as the volume of domestic investment in fixed capital. This topic is little studied in Russian economic literature, although it is actively discussed by modern economists in other countries. The hypothesis about the existence of a positive relationship between the accumulation of physical and human capital in the Russian economy is tested. The apparatus of production functions, correlation and regression analysis are used to statistically check the degree of influence of human capital on the intensity of investments, both domestic and foreign. To measure human capital, both natural and monetary measures were used. The presence of a positive, stable and statistically significant relationship between the human capital accumulated in the regions and the intensity of investment processes is shown. A negative relationship between the density of employment and the volume of investment in fixed assets of the Russian regions was also revealed.

Local governments need to increase capital investment in fixed assets, such as: equipments, buildings, infrastructures, and other fixed assets. Capital expenditure allocation was based on the local needs for facilities and infrastructure. The higher level of capital investment expected to improve the quality of public services, because the fixed assets due to capital expenditure is a key for the implementation of governmental duties and provides services to the public.This study was aimed at analyzing the corelations of local own revenues, general allocation funds, and specific allocation funds with capital expenditures at Tolitoli Regency in Central Sulawesi Province. Research design methods is the field research by correlation analysis.Test results showed a lack relationship between local own revenues with capital expenditures by R value was 0,155. Meanwhile the relationship between general allocation funds with capital expenditures was 0,981 and special allocation funds with capital expenditures was 0,427. It shows the close relationship between the two variables with capital expenditures.Keywords: Local Own Revenue, General Allocation Fund, Spesific Allocation Fund, Capital Expenditure.

The Relationship

This note examines the relationship between affirmative action (AA) program perceptions and women’s self-ascribed capacity and desire to become leaders. We propose that women who believe that their organization implements a program of preferential selection toward women will experience negative psychological effects leading to lowered self-expectations for leadership, but that this effect will be moderated by their justice perceptions of AA programs. We test this proposition empirically for the first time with a Latin American female sample. Among Brazilian women managers, desire but not self-ascribed capacity to lead was reduced when they believed an AA policy was in place. Both desire’s and capacity’s relationships with belief in an AA policy were moderated by justice perceptions.

Впервые в мире создана популяция зубров на территории 60 градусов северной широты. В новых климатических условиях разведения и сохранения зубров определены и проанализированы факторы существования вида на севере Европейской части РФ. Выявлены признаки, динамика численности, которые являются составной частью системы, предназначенной для управления биоразнообразием. Интродукция, являясь процессом введения в экосистему нехарактерных для нее видов, может усиливать изменения биоценозов как положительно, так и отрицательно. Насколько быстро и успешно проходит процесс адаптации заселенного вида, и усматривается его влияние на окружающую среду зависит дальнейшее существование зубров и в целом биоразнообразия. В статье обсуждаются вопросы взаимоотношения зубров с другими видами копытных и хозяйственной деятельностью человека, а также дальнейшим использованием зубров в сельскохозяйственном производстве. Пластичность зубров, выявление изменений и их анализ при вселении видов в новые условия обитания необходимы не только для определения развития или деградации биоценозов и в целом экосистемы, но и прогноза социально-экономических последствий интродукции как одного из методов сохранения редких и исчезающих видов фауны.For the first time in the world, a bison population has been created in an area of 60 degrees north latitude. In the new climatic conditions of breeding and preservation of bison, the factors of the species existence in the north of the European part of the Russian Federation are identified and analyzed. The signs, dynamics of abundance, which are an integral part of the system designed to manage biodiversity are identified, since the preservation of biological diversity on the planet is one of the main problems of our time. Introduction, being the process of introducing non-typical species into an ecosystem, can enhance changes in biocenoses, both positively and negatively. The question posing sounds especially when it comes to such a large hoofed animal as the European bison. How quickly and successfully the process of adaptation of the universe takes place and its environmental impact is seen depends on the continued existence of bison and biodiversity in general. The article discusses the relationship of bison with other types of ungulates and human activities, as well as the further use of bison in agricultural production. How these issues will be resolved positively depends on the future of these animals. Thus, the plasticity of bison, the identification of changes and their analysis, with the introduction of species into new habitat conditions is necessary not only to determine the development or degradation of biocenoses and the ecosystem as a whole, but also to predict the socio-economic consequences due to the introduction as one of the methods of preserving rare and endangered species of fauna.
