    Abstract The present study aims to quantify the impact of energy efficiency on environmental quality in the top five greenhouse gas–emitting countries, namely, China, USA, India, Germany, and Japan. Based on annual data set from 1971 to 2016, the study explores the role of technological innovations to protect environmental quality by reducing CO2 emissions of these countries by employing structural time series model (STSM) approach. The results show that CO2 emissions in China, India, the USA, and Germany are growing faster than energy consumption, while in Japan the former is growing more slowly than energy consumption. The estimated carbon emission trends are upward sloping for China and India and downward sloping for Germany. However, for the USA and Japan, the underlying trend in carbon emission shows mix results. The persistently increasing slope of the carbon emission trends in China and India suggest that either energy-efficient appliances have not been used to protect the quality of the environment or any improvement in energy efficiency due to technological progress is offset by other exogenous factors.

    Abstract Soil salinity and alkalinity are common constraints to crop productivity in low rainfall regions of the world. These two stresses have been extensively studied but not the combined stress of alkaline salinity. To examine the effects of mild salinity (50mM NaCl) combined with alkalinity (5mM NaHCO3) on growth of Brassica juncea (L.) Czern., 30 genotypes were grown in hydroponics. Growth of all genotypes was substantially reduced by alkaline salinity after 4 weeks of stress. Based on large genotypic differences, NDR 8501 and Vaibhav were selected as tolerant and Xinyou 5 as highly sensitive for further detailed physiological study. Shoot and root biomass and leaf area of the selected genotypes showed greater reduction under alkaline salinity than salinity or alkalinity alone. Alkalinity alone imposed larger negative effect on growth than salinity. K+ and P concentrations in both shoot and root were significantly reduced by alkaline salinity but small difference existed among the selected genotypes. Leaf Fe concentration in Xinyou 5 decreased under alkaline salinity below a critical level of 50mgkg-1, which explained why more chlorosis and a larger growth reduction occurred than in NDR 8501 and Vaibhav. Relatively large shoot and root Na+ concentration also had additional adverse effect on growth under alkaline salinity. Low tissue K+, P and Fe concentrations by alkalinity were the major factors that reduced growth in the selected genotypes. Growth reduction by salinity was mainly caused by Na+ toxicity. Shoot Na+ concentration of NDR 8501 and Vaibhav was almost half those in Xinyou 5, suggesting NDR 8501 and Vaibhav excluded more Na+. However, Na+ exclusion was reduced by more than 50% under alkaline salinity than salinity in the selected genotypes. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that alkaline salinity reduced uptake of essential nutrients and Na+ exclusion that resulted in more negative consequences on growth than salinity alone.

    Abstract This study aims to identify the travelers' attitudes and preferences towards the use of public transport during COVID-19 through the Norm-Activation Model (NAM). A questionnaire survey was designed to assess the traveler's awareness, sense of responsibility, and moral obligations to comply with safety norms or guidelines while using public transport in Lahore, Pakistan. The Structural Equation Modeling method was applied to analyze the collected 1516 complete responses. The survey results and measurement equations confirmed the association between observed and corresponding latent variables. The results of SEM revealed that the travelers' Awareness of Consequences (AC) and Ascription of Responsibility (AR) are positively correlated with Personal Norms (PN), whereas attitudes towards public transport are negatively related to the PN. The perceived behavioral control (PBC) and PN have negative structural correlations with public transport use. However, the attitudes towards public transport are strong predictors of travelers' behavior towards public transport. The current motorcycle users and high-income people have low preferences, whereas current users of public transport modes and middle-income people have high preferences to choose public transport during a pandemic. The travelers' perceived difficulty of complying with safety guidelines while traveling, such as wearing a facemask, use of sanitizers, and maintaining a social distance, have a significant impact on their public transport use. The travelers' better awareness, responsibility, and trust in using public transport may have a strong influence on their preferences towards public transport during a pandemic situation.

    Abstract Objective: To characterize human liver tissues by demonstrating the ability of machine vision, and to propose a new auto-generated report based on texture analysis that may work with co-occurrence matrix statistics.
    Methods: The retrospective study was conducted at Bahawal Victoria Hospital (BVH), Bahawalpur, Pakistan, and comprised clinically verified computed tomography imaging data between October 2018 and September 2020. The image samples and related data were used to segregate classes 1-4. Appropriate image classes belonging to the same disease were trained to confirm the abnormalities in liver tissues using supervised learning methods, principal component analysis, linear discriminant analysis, and non-linear discriminant analysis. Robust and reliable texture features were investigated by generating testing classes. Overall performance of the presented machine vision approach was analyzed using four parameters; precision, recall/sensitivity, F1-score, and accuracy. Statistical analysis was done using B11 software.
    Results: There were 312 image samples from 71 patients; 51(71.8%) males and 20(28.2%) females. Among the patients, 19(26.7%) had abscess, 15(21.1%) had metastatic disease, 23(32.4%) had tumour necrosis, 6(8.5%) had vascular disorder, and 8(11.3%) were normal. Principal component analysis, linear discriminant analysis, and non-linear discriminant analysis showed high >97.86% values, but the discrimination rate was 100% for class 4.
    Conclusions: Abnormalities in the human liver could be discriminated and diagnosed by texture analysis techniques using second-order statistics that may assist the radiologist and medical physicists in predicting the severity and proliferation of abnormalities in liver diseases.

    Abstract Traffic accidents and related fatalities have become a major public health problem in the world. This study aims to identify the significant factors that play an important role in the speeding behavior of drivers. A comprehensive questionnaire was designed and conducted with the students and employees of the University of Nizwa. The questionnaire items were designed considering the theoretical background of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and local socio-cultural aspects of the driving environment. A total of 303 usable samples were obtained. The collected data were analyzed using factor analysis and structural equation modelling technique. The extracted factors of speeding passion and culture, speeding attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control are significant determinants of drivers speeding behavior in Oman. The driver's speeding attitudes, speeding culture, and passion have positive association with the drivers' speeding intentions and behavior, and driver's perceived behavioral control forms negative relationship with the speeding behavior. This study confirms the application of the TPB in predicting the drivers' speeding behavior in the context of Oman.
