Abstract. Since 1978, a series of national surveys (Countryside Survey, CS) have been carried out by the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (CEH) (formerly the Institute of Terrestrial Ecology, ITE) to gather data on the natural environment in Great Britain (GB). As the sampling framework for these surveys is not optimised to yield data on rarer or more localised habitats, a survey was commissioned by the then Department of the Environment (DOE, now the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, DEFRA) in the 1990s to carry out additional survey work in English landscapes which contained semi-natural habitats that were perceived to be under threat, or which represented areas of concern to the ministry. The landscapes were lowland heath, chalk and limestone (calcareous) grasslands, coasts and uplands. The information recorded allowed an assessment of the extent and quality of a range of habitats defined during the project, which can now be translated into standard UK broad and priority habitat classes. The survey, known as the "Key Habitat Survey", followed a design which was a series of gridded, stratified, randomly selected 1 km squares taken as representative of each of the four landscape types in England, determined from statistical land classification and geological data ("spatial masks"). The definitions of the landscapes are given in the descriptions of the spatial masks, along with definitions of the surveyed habitats. A total of 213 of the 1 km2 square sample sites were surveyed in the summers of 1992 and 1993, with information being collected on vegetation species, land cover, landscape features and land use, applying standardised repeatable methods. The database contributes additional information and value to the long-term monitoring data gathered by the Countryside Survey and provides a valuable baseline against which future ecological changes may be compared, offering the potential for a repeat survey. The data were analysed and described in a series of contract reports and are summarised in the present paper, showing for example that valuable habitats were restricted in all landscapes, with the majority located within protected areas of countryside according to different UK designations. The dataset provides major potential for analyses, beyond those already published, for example in relation to climate change, agri-environment policies and land management. Precise locations of the plots are restricted, largely for reasons of landowner confidentiality. However, the representative nature of the dataset makes it highly valuable for evaluating the status of ecological elements within the associated landscapes surveyed. Both land cover data and vegetation plot data were collected during the surveys in 1992 and 1993 and are available via the following DOI: https://doi.org/10.5285/7aefe6aa-0760-4b6d-9473-fad8b960abd4. The spatial masks are also available from https://doi.org/10.5285/dc583be3-3649-4df6-b67e-b0f40b4ec895.

Election Results

Why are there so many new parties? Why do so few of them survive? And why are they appearing and disappearing in so many more countries these days? Based on hundreds of interviews with party leaders, activists and voters and three decades of election results across Europe, The New Party Challenge introduces new tools for mapping and measuring party systems and develops an integrated conceptual framework for analysing the dynamics of party politics, particularly the birth and death of parties. The book charts and explains the patterns of politics in Central Europe since 1989, and then shows how similar processes are at play on a far wider geographical canvas. The repeated breakthroughs of new parties poses multiple challenges: existing parties that must staunch the outflow of disillusioned voters to fresh alternatives, new parties must figure out how to hold on to those new voters in the face of even newer alternatives, and society as a whole must find a way to pursue long-term policies in a political environment where the roster of political actors is constantly changing. The book underlines the importance of agency and choice in explaining the fate of parties, highlights the salience of the clean versus corrupt dimension of politics, charts the flow of voters in the new party subsystem and emphasizes the dimension of time and its role in shaping developments. The book concludes by reflecting on how the emergence of so many short-lived new parties may affect the health and quality of democracy, and what could and should be done.

Seagrass Restoration

Seagrasses are marine flowering plants providing key ecological services and functions in coasts and estuaries across the globe. Increased environmental changes fueled by human activities are affecting their existence, compromising natural habitats and ecosystems’ biodiversity and functioning. In this context, restoration of disturbed seagrass environments has become a worldwide priority to reverse ecosystem degradation and to recover ecosystem functionality and associated services. Despite the proven importance of genetic research to perform successful restoration projects, this aspect has often been overlooked in seagrass restoration. Here, we aimed to provide a comprehensive perspective of genetic aspects related to seagrass restoration. To this end, we first reviewed the importance of studying the genetic diversity and population structure of target seagrass populations; then, we discussed the pros and cons of different approaches used to restore and/or reinforce degraded populations. In general, the collection of genetic information and the development of connectivity maps are critical steps for any seagrass restoration activity. Traditionally, the selection of donor population preferred the use of local gene pools, thought to be the best adapted to current conditions. However, in the face of rapid ocean changes, alternative approaches such as the use of climate-adjusted or admixture genotypes might provide more sustainable options to secure the survival of restored meadows. Also, we discussed different transplantation strategies applied in seagrasses and emphasized the importance of long-term seagrass monitoring in restoration. The newly developed information on epigenetics as well as the application of assisted evolution strategies were also explored. Finally, a view of legal and ethical issues related to national and international restoration management is included, highlighting improvements and potential new directions to integrate with the genetic assessment. We concluded that a good restoration effort should incorporate: (1) a good understanding of the genetic structure of both donors and populations being restored; (2) the analysis of local environmental conditions and disturbances that affect the site to be restored; (3) the analysis of local adaptation constraints influencing the performances of donor populations and native plants; (4) the integration of distribution/connectivity maps with genetic information and environmental factors relative to the target seagrass populations; (5) the planning of long-term monitoring programs to assess the performance of the restored populations. The inclusion of epigenetic knowledge and the development of assisted evolution programs are strongly hoped for the future.

Many readers and contributors to BioResources are working to develop sustainable technology. Such research attempts to use products of photosynthesis to meet long-term human needs with a minimum of environmental impact. Archeological and historical studies have concluded that the long-term success or failure of various past civilizations has depended, at least in part, on people’s ability to maintain the quality of the resources upon which they depended. Though it is possible for modern societies to learn from such examples, modern societies are interconnected to an unprecedented degree. It is no longer realistic to expect one region to be immune from the effects of environmental mistakes that may happen elsewhere in the world. Research related to renewable, lignocellulosic resources is urgently needed. But in addition to the research, there also needs to be discussion of hard-hitting questions, helping to minimize the chances of technological failure. The next failed civilization may be our own.

This article aims to analyze: Employee professionalism in terms of organizational aspects in publik services. The method used in this article is a qualitative method. The results of the article show that the tendency of apparatus to be less professional in carrying out their duties and functions is partly due to the low motivation to make changes and innovate. The apparatus tends to be reluctant to make changes due to a lack of encouragement from the leadership. In realizing a professional, accountable, and transparent apparatus, it requires a leader role as a guide and has a visionary spirit and vision in the Gorontalo City One Stop Integrated Services and Investment Service. Concrete steps for leaders in creating a democratic climate where subordinates are included in every policy making related to improving organizational performance and building two-way communication in every activity will make subordinates feel that they are an important part of the organization. The attitude of the leader to foster a responsive spirit in every employee can improve the quality of licensing and non-licensing services in Gorontalo City. Efforts that can be made to foster the professionalism of the personnel are by making long-term, medium-term and short-term work programs and setting priority scales in every activity aimed at improving the quality of publik services.Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tentang profesionalisme pegawai ditinjau dari aspek pengorganisasian dalam pelayanan publik. Metode yang digunakan dalam artikel ini yakni metode kualitatif. Hasil artikel menunjukan bahwa kecenderungan aparat kurang profesional dalam menjalankan tugas dan fungsinya antara lain disebabkan oleh rendahnya motivasi untuk melakukan perubahan dan berinovasi. Aparat cenderung enggan melakukan perubahan dikenakan kurangnya dorongan dari pimpinan. Dalam mewujudkan aparat yang profesional, akuntabel, dan transparan maka dibutuhkan peran pemimpin sebagai pengarah dan memiliki jiwa dan pandangan yang visioner pada Dinas Penanaman Modal Dan Pelayanan Terpadu Satu Pintu Kota Gorontalo. Langkah-langkah konkrit pemimpin dalam menciptakan iklim demokrasi dimana bawahan disertakan dalam setiap pengambilan kebijakan yang berkaitan dengan peningkatan kinerja organisasi serta membangun komunikasi dua arah dalam setiap kegiatan akan membuat bawahan merasa dirinya adalah bagian penting dalam organisasi. Sikap pemimpin untuk menumbuhkan jiwa responsif pada setiap pegawai dapat meningkatan kualitas pelayanan perizinan dan non perizinan di Kota Gorontalo. Upaya yang dapat dilakukan untuk menumbuhkan profesionalisme aparatur adalah dengan membuat program kerja jangka Panjang, jangka menengah, dan jangka pendek serta menetapkan skala prioritas dalam setiap kegiatan yang bertujuan meningkatkan kualitas pelayanan publik.
