文摘The increased erosion of mangrove forests has alarmed the government about the damage to both the economy and livelihoods.To evaluated forest and land erosion the coast.Based on survey data is divided into five levels(F1:no erosion;F2:little erosion;F3:moderate erosion;F4:high erosion;F5:strong erosion),and ecological conditions,the coast is divided into sub-regions for investigation.From the surveyed indicators at each erosion level,forest structure is analyzed for comparison.The erosion level is defined as an erosion function(Er)from 1 to 5(+),where(1)parameters include the number of trees per hectare(Ntr/ha),height to top(Ht),trunk diameter at 1.3 m(D1.3),tree canopy diameter(Dc),and width of the forest range(Wf);(2)land erosion is a function(Erl=Erlte+Erlsa+Erlsi+Erlcl),with parameters including erosion by terrain(Erlte),sand(Erlsa),silt(Erlsi),and clay(Erlcl);and(3)climate change leading to erosion is an inverse function(Cl)from 1 to 5(-),with parameters including erosion by rainfall(Clra),wind(Clwi),waves(Clwa),and tide(Clti).The resulting function output is Er=(Erf+Erl)-Cl.On eroded forest land,species were tested under climate change conditions and their growth in the next rainy season to assess survival rates affected by rainfall,waves,wind,and tides.These results help to plan planting mangrove forest anti-erosion models and construct a theoretical function of mangrove erosion and proposes restore forests using pioneer species.

文摘This study examines the relationship between ecological awareness,satisfaction,and the intention to participate in environmental protection in Vietnam,focusing on the mediating role of satisfaction and the moderating effects of social responsibility and ecological knowledge.While ecological awareness is a key driver of pro-environmental behavior,prior research shows that awareness alone does not always translate into concrete actions.To address this issue,we explore how satisfaction with environmental conditions strengthens the awareness-intention link and how personal responsibility and knowledge further enhance this process.Survey data were collected from 4,615 participants across six provinces,representing diverse ecological and socio-economic contexts.Structural equation modeling(SEM)results indicate that ecological awareness positively influences pro-environmental intention,but this effect is significantly stronger when individuals report higher levels of satisfaction.Satisfaction serves as a central mediator,showing that awareness must be complemented by confidence and trust in environmental outcomes to stimulate behavioral commitment.In addition,social responsibility and ecological knowledge moderate these relationships:individuals with greater responsibility and knowledge demonstrate stronger connections between awareness,satisfaction,and intention.The findings contribute to environmental psychology by emphasizing the interaction of cognitive,affective,and normative factors in shaping ecological behavior.For policymakers,the results highlight the need to design interventions that go beyond awareness-raising.Building satisfaction with environmental policies,fostering a sense of responsibility,and strengthening ecological knowledge are crucial for promoting sustainable behaviors and encouraging active citizen participation in environmental protection in Vietnam.

文摘This study examines the management of human resource training in vocational colleges under Vietnam’s Ministry of Agriculture and Environment,focusing on the transition to smart agriculture.A mixed-methods design was employed,combining policy analysis,surveys at five colleges,and interviews with administrators and lecturers.Findings reveal that while elements of smart agriculture and digital transformation have entered training programs,integration remains fragmented.Curricula emphasize theory over practice,faculty have limited expertise in digital agriculture,and facilities lack modern technology.Weak industry collaboration further widens the gap between training and labor market demands.Using the integrated CIPO-Logic Model,the study identifies misalignments among context,inputs,processes,and outputs that reduce graduate employability and hinder sustainable farming practices.The results highlight the urgent need for comprehensive management reforms that update curricula,enhance faculty capacity,and foster school-industry partnerships.Strengthening these areas will help vocational colleges produce a workforce equipped for digital transformation and support Vietnam’s national agenda for smart,sustainable agriculture.The study provides evidence-based recommendations to guide policymakers,educational leaders,and practitioners in aligning vocational training with future agricultural development needs.
