: About 90% of the total water resources in the country is represented by surface water resources. As a result of the reduction of the number of hydrological gauge stations, on the basis of which natural and disponible water resources can be assessed, it is proposed to assess them by identifying climate runoff. The obtained results allow the forecast of the changes of the water resources in the conditions of the environmental changes. Climate runoff is essentially determined as a difference between annual precipitation and evaporation, which depends on the geographical position and the orographic specificity of the studied territory. It is logical that they are subject of geographical zoning. In the paper are evaluated the climatic water resources based on whi ch the natural and disponible ones from the Răut river basin were calculated.

: Protected areas pose a major interest in the current context in which natural habitats are very fragmented as a result of economic development. The ROSCI0076 Dealul Mare- Hîrlău site represents the largest protected area from Moldova’s Plateau where forest habitats occupy a majority surface. A total number of 10 Natura 2000 forest habitats were identified on the site’s surface. Among them, the majority are 91Y0 - Dacian oak hornbeam forests and 9130 - Asperulo-Fagetum beech forests. These are comprised of 79% natural forests, while planted forests represent 19%. The main age ranges between 40 and 80 years, with compact areas with young forests, as well as with forests older than 100 years. Forest habitats are stable from an ecological point of view, ensuring optimum conditions for the development and colonization of species presented on the site’s map.

: Sugarcane Press Mud (SPM) is a waste generated from the sugar industry. India generates about 12 million tonnes of SPM annually and hence, needs effective management. The present study delves into the use of SPM as a ternary blend in cement-lime stabilization of an expansive soil. An expansive soil was stabilized using a combination of 4.5% lime (determined from the Eades and Grim pH test) and a fixed cement content of 1%. The effect of the stabilization was studied by casting cylindrical specimens of dimensions 38 mm x 76 mm and curing them for periods of 7, 14 and 28 days. This process was modified by blending it with SPM as a ternary additive up to 5% in increments of 1%. The optimal dosage of SPM was evaluated for enhanced strength gain which was then subjected to a wet-dry cycle to understand the effect of variation in moisture content. The results of the investigation revealed that cement-lime stabilization of the soil was significantly better than lime stabilization alone. 1% SPM was found to be the optimal dosage required for maximum strength gain. Based on the results, it was concluded that ternary blending of SPM can potentially be beneficial in soil stabilization.
甘蔗压榨泥(SPM)是制糖业产生的废物。印度每年生产约1200万吨SPM,因此需要有效的管理。本研究深入研究了SPM作为三元混合料在膨胀土水泥-石灰稳定中的应用。膨胀土稳定使用4.5%石灰(由Eades和Grim pH试验确定)和固定水泥含量1%的组合。通过铸造尺寸为38 mm x 76 mm的圆柱形试样,并将其固化7,14和28天,研究了稳定化的效果。通过将其与SPM作为三元添加剂混合,以1%的增量增加5%,对该工艺进行了改进。评估了SPM的最佳剂量,以提高强度增益,然后进行干湿循环,以了解含水量变化的影响。研究结果表明,水泥-石灰的稳定效果明显优于石灰单独稳定。1%的SPM是获得最大强度增益所需的最佳剂量。基于上述结果,认为三元复合材料具有潜在的土壤稳定作用。

: Landslides are mass movements that are playing a very important role when it comes to the morphological evolution of the mountainous and hilly areas. Globally, landslides represent the geomorphologic hazard that produces the greatest damages, the losses being both economic and human. In Romania, the damages caused by landslides are, in most cases, economic. This study was developed because the mountainous area of Neamț county is one of the most susceptible to landslides areas, Bistrița Val ley from Borca and up to the area of Piatra- Neamț Municipality being very affected by this type of erosion. One of the reasons this study was developed is the lack of landslide susceptibility maps for the left side of the Izvorul Muntelui Lake bank, the only official maps being drawn up at county level, a too coarse approach for studying the susceptibility to landslides in a more detailed way. This study was carried out using the maximum entropy method, eleven landslide causal factors, two geomorphometric variables obtained by combining several geomorphometric derivates and the existing landslides position data that occurred over the past 15 years. A very conclusive result of this study is the very high impact of the National Road 15 and the high slope deforested areas on the onset of the landslides and the statistical modeling of the susceptibility.

: In order to maintain fish life, the Council Directive of 18 July 1978 on the quality of freshwater, which must be protected or improved provides that non-ionized ammonia in salmon and cyprinid waters may be in concentrations of 0,005 mg/dm 3 (indicative) and 0,025 mg/dm 3 (mandatory). It presents a danger for aquatic biological diversity in concentrations from 0,03 to 2,00 mg/dm 3 NH 3 depending on the species and age. This conditions also are specified in Chapter II (Specific substances to be introduced into surface waters, pt. 8) of the Republic of Moldova Government Decision no. 802 of October 9, 2013. The study includes evaluation of non-ionized ammonia in the water of some portions of the Dniester and Prut river tributaries, which crosses the Central Development Region of the Republic of Moldova. In the rivers R ă ut (upstream of B ă l ț i town and downstream of Varvareuca village), Ciulucul Mare, Ciulucul Mic, Camenca (Gura Camencii village) the ammonia concentration in different years (1981-2019) was low, but in the R ă ut river water, downstream of the Orhei town at 5 O C was of 0,029-0,35 mg/dm 3 and at 15 O C - 0,065-0,528 mg/dm 3 . The calculation of the NH 3 content in the water from the left tributaries of the Prut river that crosses the Central Development Region of the Republic of Moldova at a temperature of 5 O C and 15 O C shows high values in the water of the Gârla Mare river, Medeleni and Catranâc villages (0,394-0,818 mg/dm 3 ), river Gârla Mic ă , liman (0,141-0,327 mg/dm 3 ), Delia river, Pârli ț a village (0,84-1,78 mg/dm 3 ), Nârnova river, Nisporeni town and Leu ș eni village (0,27-0,73 mg/dm 3 ), L ă pusna river, Voinescu village (0,277-0,65 mg/dm 3 ). Thus, in the water of different years (1981-2019) on many portions of the Dniester and Prut rivers tributaries, which crosses the Central Development Region of the Republic of Moldova, the concentration of ammonium (NH 3 + NH 4+ ) was high, and depending on the pH and temperature the calculated non-ionized ammonia content exceeded the value of 0,025 mg/dm 3 .

: The development, in recent decades, of specific GIS and remote sensing techniques, facilitates the spatial analysis of the pastoral space and provides access to a huge volume of geospatial data. In this context, the purpose of the research is the mapping of the grasslands of Arad county and their analysis in correlation with the altitude and slope of the terrain. For Arad county, the grassland areas were identified and mapped, as follows: the Corine Land Cover database, 2018 edition, on a medium scale, was completed on the basis of orthophotoplans and cadastral plans at a scale of 1:10000, a process that obtained representation of grasslands on a large scale. The calculations show that 12% of the area of Arad county belongs to grasslands. The overlay analysis allowed the study of grasslands in correlation with other environmental factors, which can influence the floristic composition or their spatio-temporal dynamics. Thus, 89% of the grassland areas are located between 80.8 and 300 m altitude and 96% are located on slopes with an inclination below 15º. The application of GIS techniques in the research of grasslands in a given territory, offers the possibility of a holistic approach or for particular cases.

: Sustainability is one of the most significant aims strived to achieve. Energy and the environment are interrelated factors that contribute to sustainability. Measuring energy and environmental sustainability is of utmost importance. The paper’s aim is to analyze the energy and environmental performance of the G20 members. An integrated approach with MCDM methods is proposed. First, we attribute criteria weight via the CRITIC method. Secondly, we evaluate the performance of the G20 countries via the VIKOR and CoCoSo methods. Our results show that Brazil is ranked as the G20 country with the best performance. We may conclude that performance evaluation via MCDM methods may give significant insight into the sustainable development of countries.

: The study represents a detailed spatial analysis regarding soil erosion in the Republic of Moldova. The territory of the country (including the Transnistrian region), from the point of view of the administrative-territorial structure, is made up of 983 units. Thus, the analysis of eroded lands was carried out on administrative units at the level of villages, communes and cities, according to the data of the 2021 year from the Land Cadastre, developed by the Agency for Land Relations and Cadastre of the Republic of Moldova . The created database was later imported into a GIS (Geographical Information Systems) program and processed using ArcGIS software. The mapping and classification of the data regarding the proportion of eroded agricultural land (total; strongly, moderately and weakly eroded) allowed the identification of the most vulnerable areas to these processes - the Central Moldavian Plateau (Codrilor), the Ciuluc Hills, the Dniester Plateau etc. The frequency rate of agricultural land in total per country was 73.7%, including arable land constituted 54.9%. Of the entire agricultural area, 73.2% was monitored from the point of view of soil and geomorphological processes: approximately 1/3 of all agricultural land is affected by some degree of erosion, including 4.5% that are heavily eroded. The specific factors of soil erosion and the main consequences are evaluated, with an emphasis on the most affected regions.

: The study assessed the ecological and geochemical state of geosystems of the subregions of Northern Bukovyna: Prut-Dniester, Prut-Siret, and Bukovynian Carpathians. In the Prut-Dniester interfluve, the ecological condition of rural geosystems can be assessed as moderately favorable and low-favorable. Bukovynian Subcarpathians, in the middle part of Northern Bukovyna, are distinguished by favorable ecological conditions for both human life and rural tourism. The predominance of the leaching soil water regime of geosystems (sufficient rainfall) and notable wooded areas contributed to the sanitation of these landscapes from various artificial pollutions. The Carpathian subregion is the most distinct and unusual in terms of geoecological evaluation. There is a more complex set of natural conditions (vertical differentiation of landscape complexes). Fluvial terrace landscape complexes (with a chain or mosaic-scattered settlements) have highly favorable ecological and geochemical conditions. This subregion is the most optimal regarding the recreational and tourist trend. Among the geoecological factors of its development, it is worth noting the high quality of groundwater (drinking water), which, despite the excess precipitation, is sufficiently saturated with biologically essential macro- and micronutrients and have mostly medium hardness (Ca + Mg) and mineralization.

: The Algerian urban renewal policy, supported by the law on urban orientation, aims to rebuild the city on itself to exploit urban wastelands. From this perspective, open spaces, wastelands, and urban interstices become major planning issues; their requalification makes it possible to ensure the economic management of space and to improve the attractiveness of the city.
