Description

The e-questionnaire, also known as an electronic questionnaire, gives qualitative researchers a lot of opportunities to capture the variety of ways that language learners and teachers experience and interpret language phenomena. However, the e-questionnaire's use in qualitative research, particularly in applied linguistics, is poorly documented and poorly documented. Therefore, the goal of this tutorial is to improve how the e-questionnaire is used as well as to consider design issues and administration strategies. It aims to demonstrate that the e-questionnaire is a useful tool for qualitative applied linguistics research with numerous advantages, including increased efficiency in data collection, reduced research costs002E, and expanded access to study participants' perspectives and experiences. Copula models are being utilized in all human endeavours, including the energy, social, natural, and physical sciences. The most effective methods for modelling dependent structures between various complex correlated variables are copulas. In this paper, we explicitly analyse the improvement of copula models and their applications in the space of energy, power modules, ranger service and ecological sciences. It examines the most recent research on the theoretical development of a mixture of bivariate and multivariate copula distributions for both static and dynamic applications, as well as the various types of copula models, such as Gumball, Clayton, Frank, Gaussian, and vine. In relation to copulas, the ARMA, DCC, and GARCH models are used to conduct a literature comparison review. Innovative paradigms like mobile crowd sensing and citizen science offer numerous opportunities for public participation in participatory activities because of the collaborative power of ICT systems, a key enabler of social and technological advancements. . These paradigms promise to increase the widespread observation of urban environmental pollution, either directly by human observers or through crowd-sourcing data measurement tasks using smart phone sensors or other mobile devices, if specific methodologies are followed

Scientific Quality Control

To enable scientists and other individuals to participate in mobile-based citizen science projects, we propose the Apollon platform. Students participate in urban environmental monitoring activities in an educational setting where the platform has been implemented and validated. We describe the platform and method developed for successful experiments in the paper. Policy-Science, or research science that is used to guide decisions about public policy, is rarely rigorously tested, replicated, or checked. According to studies of the biomedical and other sciences, there are significant flaws in about half of the peer-reviewed scientific literature that has been published. We discuss examples of science related to alleged threats to the Great Barrier Reef (GBR), Australia, in order to demonstrate the potential flaws in the current methods of scientific Quality Control (QC). There seems to be a real danger that efforts to improve the GBR's health are directed improperly or away from the more serious threats. We propose the establishment of a new organization to conduct high-quality reviews and audits of significant scientific findings that serve as the foundation for environmental spending decisions made by the government. It stands to reason that such a body could also investigate policy science in other crucial fields, such as education, health, and criminology, where governments heavily rely on scientific findings. In this paper we investigate current interdisciplinary displaying rehearses in the ecological sciences, and propose that nearer consideration should be paid to the idea of logical practices while examining and arranging interdisciplinary. Current environmental science modelling strategies are conservative, avoiding methodological conflict and restricting interdisciplinary interactions to a relatively small set of preexisting modelling frameworks and strategies (a process we call crystallization), despite the fact that interdisciplinary is frequently portrayed as a medium for novel and transformative methodological work.

We contend that such practices can be justified as partial responses to interdisciplinary work-restricting cognitive constraints. Community involvement in scientific research is made possible by citizen science programs. Some citizen science programs aim to increase environmental engagement in addition to increasing science literacy. However, there are insufficient data to determine whether citizen science programs can increase environmental engagement and how to do so. We conduct a survey of those who decide to attend one of seventeen citizen science events on the reef and investigate the extent to which attendees reported three indicators of greater environmental engagement: i) a willingness to share information, ii) an increase in support for marine conservation and citizen science, and iii) plans to adopt a new behaviour. The majority of participants (91%) stated increased support for marine science and conservation and willingness to share information about reef conservation. 51% of participants said they planned to try a new conservation strategy. We found that learning about actions to protect reefs and coasts (procedural learning), being surprised, and feeling bad about environmental issues were important aspects of the citizen science experience that were linked to these outcomes. Positive outcomes were also associated with excitement, but only in those participants who were less likely to identify as environmentalists or who visited reefs and coasts less frequently. Importantly, there was a weak or negative correlation between environmental engagement outcomes and factual learning. According to these findings, rather than fact-based instruction, citizen science experiences may be more effective at fostering future environmental engagement. These findings highlight the importance of highlighting environmental impacts while also providing meaningful experiences and developing environmental skills when designing citizen science programs for community members. It is neither a new nor unexplored phenomenon to deny scientific findings. However, the research on denial has not been systematically summarized and examined in environmental science and policy. The purpose of this review, which examines 161 scientific articles on climate and environmental science denial that have been published in international journals with peer review over the course of the past 25 years, is to find research gaps and make learning about the phenomenon possible. In order to end science denial's influence on environmental policymaking, such knowledge is required for the increasingly important task of providing an effective response. Science has paid much less attention to other geographical areas and environmental issues. Although the actors behind climate science denial, their various motivations, and the characteristics of their operations have been thoroughly described, further comparative research between issues and nations is required to arrive at dependable conclusions regarding the factors that explain the paculiarities of denial.

Environmental Footprint

This may, in turn, set the stage for the development and actual testing of strategies to combat denial of environmental science. Science-based policies are always preferable, regardless of the ambitions of environmental goals. As a result, the scientific community must increase its efforts to expose denialist schemes and expose false claims. An increased awareness of the effects that humans have on nature has resulted from environmental degradation over the past few years. The purpose of this review is to demonstrate the perception of the growing interest in the Environmental Footprint domain and, more specifically, the Environmental Footprint and Life-Cycle Assessment research area by employing the bibliometric and scientometric analysis methods. Information recovered from the Snare of Science and planned with the VOSViewer has been utilized to assess the transformative pattern and current status of two datasets, the Natural Impression dataset and the Ecological Impression and Life-Cycle Appraisal dataset. The purpose of the findings was to provide useful information about these fields, such as (1) the characterization of publications, (2) the most pertinent references cited, (3) the most influential keywords in the research topics, (4) major journal sources, and (5) the main countries that are involved in this particular research field. The analysis also revealed brand-new emerging trends like the Product Environmental Footprint and the Organization Environmental Footprint.

There is a qualitative discussion that identifies the primary research areas and potential future research directions. By providing a better understanding of the current state of the Environmental Footprint research field and serving as a starting point for subsequent studies, this review may be of assistance to practitioners and researchers.
