论文摘要
Pranata Mangsa是一种本地知识,基于爪哇农民在历史上利用的日历系统,用于从事植物和植被的农业活动。渔民还使用它来指导他们不仅捕获鱼类和其他水生动物,还可以预测他们可能收集的海鲜类型。尽管爪哇人基于太阳能和农历日历的组合拥有并维护自己的日历系统,但Pranata Mangsa仅基于太阳日历,并从一代人传递到下一代。文献证实,通过将这些当地知识和科学数据结合起来,爪哇社区在适应全球变暖和气候变化引起的极端水文事件方面具有更好的韧性。在此评论中,我们提供了有关种族和Java的四个样本城市的评论,其中后者被选中用于Pranata Mangsa研究。
Pranata mangsa is a local knowledge based on a calendrical system utilized historically by Javanese peasant farmers in conducting their agricultural activities in cultivating plants and vegetation. It is also used by fishermen to guide them not only in capturing fish and other aquatic animals but also in predicting the type of seafood they might gather. Although the Javanese possess and maintain their own calendrical system based on a combination of solar and lunar calendars, pranata mangsa is solely based on the solar calendar and passed on from one generation to the next verbally. Literature has confirmed that by combining this local knowledge and scientific data, the Javanese community has a better resilience in adapting to extreme hydrological events due to global warming and climate change. In this comment, we provide remarks on ethnic groups and the four sample cities in Java where the latter were selected for the pranata mangsa study.
