More than the half of world population, about 4, 4 billion were observed to move urbans compared to the country population after 2007 year.This moving still continues in the cities with more population. If urbanization was observed to be equal for the number of the city and country people in the last decades,urban life is expected to increase significantly till 2050 according to the World Urbanization Perspectives of UN. So, if the world population is predicted to be 9,8 billion, then 6,7 of these will be inhabited in urbans, but 3,1 billion will settle in the countries. Urbanization process is observed in Azerbaijan as other countries of the world.This process has started mainly since 1991, after getting independence.Urbanization in research city Ganja began to be formed at the same time with social-economical progress of our country. Key words: Urbanization, geospatial, GIS, sattelite images, map layer

Food security is challenged by the growth of the world population, intensification of agricultural production, depletion of scarce agricultural and environmental resources, and the consequent introduction of innovations to farming processes, one of which is land management. In this chapter, the authors discuss the role of innovative aspects and practices of land management in the establishment of food security and the provision of rational, sound, and effective administration of scarce land resources. In the case of Russia and other countries, the authors justify the necessity of rational land management focused on the innovative way of development of agricultural production.

<p>Irrigated areas have increased, faster than the growth of the world population, from around 0.63 million km<sup>2</sup> at the start of the 20th century to 3.1 million km<sup>2</sup> of land in 2005, that is five times of area in 1900 (0.6 million km<sup>2</sup>). Irrigation is one of the land management practices with the largest biogeochemical and biogeophysical effects on climate. However, incorporating land management factors (including irrigation) into most of the state‐of‐the‐art climate models under the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, Phase 6 (CMIP6) coordinated by the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) is still overlooked. To our best knowledge, three models, however, take into account irrigation activities: namely NorESM2‐LM, GISS‐E2‐H, and CESM2. The overall objective of the study is to investigate the role of irrigation on climate change at the global scale by looking at temporal trends of Essential Climate variables (ECVs) that characterize the Earth's climate (Evapotranspiration, leaf area index, precipitation, soil moisture, radiation, and air temperature) over the last 115 years (i.e. 1900-2014). Within this investigation, we compared models with irrigation vs. models without irrigation using 20 models from different CMIP6 experiments: coupled land-atmosphere amip (observed sea surface temperatures and sea ice concentrations), coupled land-atmosphere-ocean historical simulation, and offline land-hist (land only simulations). Temporal trends over the 1900-2014 period were computed then spatially binned by the "FAO Global Map of Irrigation Areas", which represents area equipped for irrigation expressed as percentage of total area around the year 2005. For the three CMIP6 experiments, the three models with irrigation switched on showed similar and distinguished behavior from all other models with irrigation switched off over intensively irrigated areas: mean annual evapotranspiration and soil moisture increased over time (positive trends vs. negative or no trends for all other none-irrigation models). This increase in evapotranspiration over time was reflected in the negative trends (i.e. cooling) of annual maximum air temperature for the irrigation models vs. positive trends for most of the none-irrigation models. The ET temporal positive trends over intensively irrigated areas were detected and confirmed by four different satellite-based ET products. The consistent results among the three experiments and confirmed by different satellite data imply the importance of incorporating anthropogenic factors in the next generation of climate models.</p>

Trade is a form of business that is run by many people around the world, ranging from trading various kinds of daily necessities or primary needs, to selling the need for luxury goods for human satisfaction. For that, to overcome the many needs of life, they try to outsmart them buy products that are useful, economical and efficient. One of the markets they aim at is the second-hand market or the so-called trashy market. As for a trader at a trashy market, they aim to sell in the used goods market with a variety of reasons. These reasons include; first, because it is indeed to fulfill their needs. Second, the capital needed to trade at trashy markets is much smaller than opening a business where the products come from new goods. Third, used goods are easily available and easily sold to buyer. Here the researcher will discuss the behavior of Muslim traders in a review of Islamic business ethics (the case in the Jagalan Kediri Trashy Market). Kediri Jagalan Trashy Market is central to the sale of used goods in the city of Kediri. Where every day there are more than 300 used merchants who trade in the market.

The diagnosis and treatment of bipolar disorders (BPD) in children is currently one of the biggest challenges and area of controversy in the field of child psychiatry. Bipolar disorders encompass several affective disorders that involve alterations in the degree of activity, content and form of thinking that are characterized by biphasic episodes of mood. This group of disorders affect approximately 1% of the world population and begin in youth (the average age of onset of ~20 years). However, in some studies a delay of 5 years has been observed since the presentation of symptoms at the beginning of the treatment. Currently, the diagnosis of TBP in children and adolescents should be based on the same set of symptoms applied to adults, as well as the general principles of the treatment. The research carried out around this disorder has resulted in changes in the conceptualization and approach of this pathology, now conceived as a group of disorders that share changes in mood and other cardinal symptoms, of a chronic and progressive nature that impacts in a negative way in those who suffer them. Key words: Bipolar disorder; childhood; mania; hypomania; depression.

New Comedy was a Panhellenic phenomenon. It may be that a performance in Athens was still the acme of a comic playwright’s career, but Athens was no longer the exclusive venue of the genre. Yet Athens, or an idealized version of Athens, remained the setting or backdrop for New Comedy, whatever its provenance or intended audience. New Comedy was thus an important vehicle for the dissemination of the Athenian polis model throughout the Hellenistic world, and it was a factor in what has been termed ‘the great convergence’. The role of New Comedy in projecting an idealized image of the city-state may be compared to that of Hollywood movies in conveying a similarly romanticized, but not altogether false, conception of American democracy to populations around the world.

Abstract This review is focused on the utilization of insects as a new opportunity in food and feed products, including their commercialization both in traditional and new markets. It has been suggested that insects are considerably more sustainable when compared with other sources of animal protein, thus alleviating the pressure over the environment and the planet facing the necessity to feed the world population, constantly increasing. Many chefs have adhered to the trend of using insects in their culinary preparations, bringing insects to the plan of top gastronomy, highlighting their organoleptic qualities allied to a recognized high nutritional value. However, in some markets, insects or insect-based products are not readily accepted because of neophobia and disgust. Moreover, the insect markets, farming, and commercialization are experiencing a huge growth, in which the domain of animal feed is undoubtedly a very strong component. The future of insects as human food and animal feed seems promising in view of the recent trends and challenges.

A linguagem permite ao homem ordenar e significar o mundo a sua volta, a partir dela podemos nomear a realidade e atribuir significado àquilo que vivenciamos. A linguagem é utilizada em cada comunidade de maneira a representar a realidade local. Dessa forma, as organizações sociais nomeiam os elementos a fim de representar aquilo que vivenciam, imprimindo, nos nomes, indícios de suas histórias, culturas e fatos sociais. Este trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar resultados parciais da pesquisa de iniciação cientifica a qual procura discutir e analisar processos de nomeação das escolas do município de Missal-PR, este estudo é inédito na área onomástica. Neste artigo busca-se examinar topônimos oficiais e espontâneos atribuídos as escolas do município em estudo. O corpus deste trabalho foi formado por nomes de nove escolas, o município tem, ao todo, quinze escolas. Uma das escolas cujos nomes se analisam neste artigo está localizada no centro da cidade, sendo projetada para estar próxima a igreja, e as outras oito escolas estão localizadas no interior do município, duas em distritos e as outras em vilas e comunidades. Utilizou-se de uma investigação documental para alcançar o objetivo proposto a saber conhecer as motivações toponímicas dos nomes das escolas, levando em consideração as influências históricas, culturais e ideológicas que influenciaram na escolha desses nomes, como suporte teórico valeu-se das contribuições toponímicas de Dick (1992) e Bastiani (2016).Palavras chaves: Toponímia oficial; Toponímia Espontânea; Escolas.Official toponymy and spontaneous toponymy in the school names of Missal- PRLanguage allows man to order and mean the world around him and by using it we can name reality and attribute meaning to our experience. Besides that, language is used in each community to represent the local reality. Thus, people name the elements in order to represent what they experience, printing, in the names, indications of their stories, cultures and social facts.

In 1854, the city of Munich had arranged for the “First General German Industrial Exhibition” to promote German industry to the world and invited a global audience to the event. At the same time, Franz Dingelstedt, director of the National Theater, organized a festival displaying the finest actors from Germany. Right after the opening of the festival, cholera started raging in the city and leaving 3,000 deaths in the final count. The author sketches out the role of the theatre in this crisis, when Dingelstedt was ordered by the king to keep the theatre open at any cost. This appears awkward, in regard to the current global pandemic crisis where theaters have been identified as risk zones for infection and consequently closed down. Why was the theatre at the time considered a safe and appropriate place even helping to counter the disease?
