Abstract The effects of climate change depend on specific local circumstances, posing a challenge for worldwide research to comprehensively encompass the diverse impacts various social-ecological systems. Here we use place-specific but cross-culturally comparable protocol document indicators and as locally experienced analyze their distribution. We collected first-hand data in 48 sites inhabited by Indigenous Peoples communities covering all zones nature-dependent livelihoods. documented...
Abstract Indigenous Peoples and local communities with nature-dependent livelihoods are disproportionately affected by climate change impacts, but their experience, knowledge needs receive inadequate attention in research policy. Here, we discuss three key findings of a collaborative consortium arising from the Local Indicators Climate Change Impacts project. First, reports environmental provide holistic, relational, placed-based, culturally-grounded multi-causal understandings change,...
Cette recherche est une approche ethnobotanique descriptive et analytique, qui a pour objectif l'analyse floristique (biologie chorologie), phytothérapeutique (usages maladies traitées) taxonomique (identification description botanique) de l'inventaire des plantes médicinales du massif Guezoul situé à l'extrémité nord la ville Tiaret. Les relevés phytoécologiques que nous avons réalisés récemment dans région ont servi base données cet inventaire. La sélection espèces aux fins ainsi les...
Global polls have shown that people in high-income countries generally report being more satisfied with their lives than low-income countries. The persistence of this correlation, and its similarity to correlations between income life satisfaction within countries, could lead the impression high levels can only be achieved wealthy societies. However, global typically overlooked small-scale, nonindustrialized societies, which provide an alternative test consistency relationship. Here, we...
A floristic, ethnobotanical and natural habitat study was carried out in the wetlands of Macta marshes northwest Algeria. The specimens obtained made it possible to identify 89 taxa plants belonging 32 botanical families dominated by Amaranthaceae Asteraceae. Analysis chorology has shown dominance Mediterranean element, but only 3 endemic are recognized. Five considered rare 4 protected Algeria; 5 have an IUCN status minor consideration Spergularia doumerguei P. Monnier vulnerable. local...
Ethnoveterinary medicine is vastly under-documented, especially in North Africa, where livestock care increasingly medicalised. Despite evidence of the interdependence ethnoveterinary practices and ethnomedicine for human care, overlap between these two systems possible drivers similarity are rarely addressed ethnopharmacological literature. Here, we present first quantitative comparison remedies used to treat animal health among a pastoral society. This study aims document plants other...
Thymbra nabateorum, a plant species from the Lamiaceae family, is endemic to Nabatian region, which spans southern Jordan and northwestern Saudi Arabia. It renowned for its traditional uses rich phytochemical profile. This study aims examine composition of T. nabateorum evaluate biological activities, including antioxidant capacity, cytotoxic effects on cancer cell lines, enzyme inhibition relevant diabetes neurodegenerative diseases. The essential oil (EO) methanol extract were analyzed...
This article aims to contribute the limited literature on traditional gastronomic knowledge concerning acorn-based bread by ethnographically documenting ingredients, preparation techniques and consumption practices of baked goods made from acorn seeds flour that are still used today or at least present in living memory. A qualitative comparative case method was adopted, ethnographic data were gathered 67 people six selected Mediterranean, Central Asian Middle Eastern countries. The analysis...
Centaurea parviflora (C. parviflora), belonging to the family Asteraceae, is an Algerian medicinal plant used in folk medicine treat different diseases related hyperglycemic and inflammatory disorders, as well food. The present study aimed assess total phenolic content, vitro antioxidant antimicrobial activity phytochemical profile of extracts C. parviflora. extraction compounds from aerial parts was conducted using solvents increasing polarity starting methanol, resulting crude extract...
Thymus munbyanus subsp. coloratus (Lamiaceae) is a small shrub endemic to Algeria and Morocco where found in lawns, rockeries mountainous regions. From phytochemical point of view this taxon has never been characterized. In work we have analysed the chemical compositions essential oils obtained from inflorescences vegetative parts by GC/MS. A new chemotype, i.e . borneol‐chemotype, was characterized for first time species. Furthermore, assessed biological activities oils, namely antioxidant,...
Artemisinin, a natural product, has received considerable attention in the last few years as potent antimalarial drug.This study reports presence of Artemisinin three Algerian wild Artemisia species assessed by HPLC method: A. herba-alba (AH), campestris subsp. glutinosa (AC), and judaica subsp sahariensis (AJ).The analysis hexane extracts, showed difference artemisinin content studied with yield 0.64%, 0.34% 0.04% for AC, AH AJ, respectively. Moreover, level obtained was better than those...
Abstract As an Indigenous community of Algeria and the broader Sahel, Tuareg hold unique ecological knowledge, which might contribute to models place‐based climate change impacts. Between January April 2019, we carried out semi‐structured interviews ( N = 23) focus group discussions 3) in five villages province Illizi, Algeria, document local community's timeline calendar, both are instruments used understand reports The livelihoods Illizi finely tuned variability as reflected changes...
Ethnobotanical investigation was carried out using questionnaires among majority of El Kala (Algeria) inhabitants. The found that lentisk (Pistacia lentiscus L.) is widely used in traditional therapy, especially gastrointestinal and dermatological problems. Bioactive phytochemicals were determined by LC-MS/MS, 14, 13, 12 compounds identified leaves, stems seeds, respectively. Flavonoids phenolic acids the most abundant compounds. Moreover, total phenols (306.5 mg GAE/g), flavonoids (95.25...
In this work, a comprehensive study on the chemical constituents of aerial parts Rosmarinus eriocalyx (Lamiaceae), an aromatic shrub traditionally consumed as food and herbal remedy in Algeria, is presented. The aroma profile was analysed by headspace solid phase microextraction ( HS ‐ SPME ) coupled with gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry GC / MS ), whereas crude extract were analyzed 1 H‐ NMR high performance liquid chromatography mass HPLC n ). Thirty‐nine volatile compounds, most them...
This study aimed to investigate the ethanolic extract of <italic>T. lanceolatus</italic>, a species native north-western Algeria, traditionally used as herbal tea, seasoning and preservative for meat poultry.
This study is a floristic investigation of the steppe region Djelfa located in northern Algeria, with aim characterizing and analysing wild flora this region. Four stations were chosen according to stratified sampling method phyto-ecological surveys carried out 32 plots 100m2 each. allowed us identify 127 taxa plants belonging 33 families dominated by Asteraceae (29%) Poaceae (12%). The analysis biological types has shown dominance annual Therophytes (56%) flora, which indicates presence...
