This study aims to give better understanding of social media use in crisis communication between different maritime operators and authorities in the EU area. Study is based on several articles, recommendations and guidelines of different EU Member state authorities, and previous studies on crisis management ...
Despite significant advances in chemical ecology, the biodistribution, temporal changes and ecological function of most marine secondary metabolites remain unknown. One such example is the association between choline esters and Tyrian purple precursors in muricid molluscs. Mass spectrometry imaging ...
The following topics are dealt with: e-commerce data harvesting; collaborative emergency response system; cervical cell images; sustainable fishery industry; maintenance contract; video games; marketing strategy; inventory model; sign language system; rodent tuber plant; knowledge management; path tracking; ...
Myxozoans are an economically important group of microscopic parasites best known for the diseases they cause in commercially important fish hosts. The classification of myxosporeans is generally based on the morphology of their myxospores. Without molecular data, it is very difficult to identify new ...
Objective: To investigate the role of dietary intake in the development of premature acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in a hospital-based Pakistani population in Karachi. Methods: In a case control study, 203 consecutive patients (146 males and 57 females) with their first AMI and age below 45 years ...
The emergence of the steroid system is coupled to the evolution of multicellular animals. In vertebrates in particular, the steroid receptor repertoire has been shaped by genome duplications characteristic to this lineage. Here, we investigate for the first time the composition of the androgen receptor–signaling ...
Aggressive mimicry is an adaptive tactic of parasitic or predatory species that closely resemble inoffensive models in order to increase fitness via predatory gains. Although similarity of distantly related species is often intuitively implicated with mimicry, the exact mechanisms and evolutionary causes ...
Mercury is utilized worldwide in artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) and may pose a risk for miners and mining communities. While a number of studies have characterized mercury in ASGM communities, most have focused on a single media and few have taken a holistic approach. Here, a multiple ...
Background: Over-reliance on convenience foods, including ready-meals, has been suggested as one contributor to obesity. Little research has systematically explored the nutritional content of supermarket ready-meals. We described the nutritional content and cost of UK supermarket ready-meals. Methods: ...
Because the information security risk assessment have the problem of less training data and slow convergence rate, we put forward a information security risk assessment model based on support vector machine (SVM) using artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA). In this paper, we used weekly security report ...
In contrast to dominant mode of ecological transition in the evolution of marine mammals, different lineages of toothed whales (Odontoceti) have repeatedly invaded freshwater ecosystems during the Cenozoic era. The so-called ‘river dolphins’ are now recognized as independent lineages that converged ...
Background: The occurrence of faecal pathogens in drinking water resources constitutes a threat to the supply of safe drinking water, even in industrialized nations. To efficiently assess and monitor the risk posed by these pathogens, sampling deserves careful design, based on preliminary knowledge ...
The aim of this article is to present the methodological framework for Decision Support System for the process of selecting the location of renewable energy sources. For this purpose, the paper presents the methodology and MCDA methods sequentially structuralizing and modeling the decision space and ...
The circumpolar north is uniquely vulnerable to the health impacts of climate change. While international Arctic collaboration on health has enhanced partnerships and advanced the health of inhabitants, significant challenges lie ahead. One Health is an approach that considers the connections between ...
Smart mobile devices have become immensely popular among the people worldwide and provide a new platform for generating and sharing contents. The centralized and hybrid architectures for content sharing require constant Internet connection, increase traffic and incur costs. To address these issues several ...
This paper presents recent findings in maritime trajectory pattern and anomaly detection using long-term data collected via a shore-based network of Automatic Identification System (AIS). Since the establishment of the AIS network around Taiwan in 2009, the accumulated massive vessel trajectories have ...
This paper develops a mathematical model of optimal fleet number of fishing vessels. We considering two aspects related to the vessels. The first aspect is the availability and reliability of the vessels. The fishing vessel is vital equipment in the fishery industry that used to extract commercial marine ...
Aim: Epizootic ulcerative syndrome (EUS) causes by aquatic oomycete fungus, Aphanomyces invadans is a dangerous fish disease of a wide range of fresh and brackish water, wild and farmed fish throughout the world. The objective of the present study was to determine the susceptibility of a number of ...
Ammonia nitrogen wastewater (about 100 mg/L) was treated by two-stage ozone oxidation method. The effects of ozone flow rate and initial pH on ammonia removal were studied, and the mechanism of ammonia nitrogen removal by ozone oxidation was discussed. After the primary stage of ozone oxidation, the ...
Converting biomass to biofuels is a key strategy in substituting fossil fuels to mitigate climate change. Conventional strategies to convert lignocellulosic biomass to ethanol address the fermentation of cellulose-derived glucose. Here we used super-resolution fluorescence microscopy to uncover the ...
