Macroalgae form the most extensive and productive benthic marine vegetated habitats globally but their inclusion in Blue Carbon (BC) strategies remains controversial. We review the arguments offered to reject or include macroalgae in the BC framework, and identify the challenges that have precluded ...
In the current study, ceftazidime- and ciprofloxacin-resistant—or dual drug-resistant (DDR)—E. coli were isolated from river Mula-Mutha, which flows through rural Pune district and Pune city. The DDR E. coli were further examined for antibiotic resistance to six additional antibiotics. The study also ...
Wastewater treatment facilities in South Africa are obliged to make provision for wastewater effluent quality management, with the aim of securing the integrity of the surrounding watersheds and environments. The Department of Water Affairs has documented regulatory parameters that have, over the years, ...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as a global health threat, which has elicited a high-level political declaration at the United Nations General Assembly, 2016. In response, member countries agreed to pay greater attention to the surveillance and implementation of antimicrobial stewardship. ...
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of montmorillonite on nonylphenol (4-nonylphenol, 4-NP) enrichment in a zebrafish model. The AB strain zebrafish were used as the animal subjects, and three concentration gradients were set for both nonylphenol and montmorillonite, according to their ...
Improving the nutritional status of women and children in South Asia remains a high public health and development priority. Women's groups are emerging as platforms for delivering health- and nutrition-oriented programs and addressing gender and livelihoods challenges. We propose a framework outlining ...
Seaweeds may represent immuno-stimulants that could be used as health-promoting fish feed components. This study was performed to gain insights into the immunomodulatory effects of dietary seaweeds in Atlantic salmon. Specifically tested were 10% inclusion levels of Laminaria digitata (SW1) and a commercial ...
Abstract Sperm cryopreservation is a highly efficient method for preserving genetic resources. It extends the reproductive period of males and significantly reduces costs normally associated with maintenance of live animal colonies. However, previous zebrafish (Danio rerio) cryopreservation methods ...
Background The extensive usage of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) in industrial and consumer products raises the risk of releasing their residues into the aquatic environment. The presence of ZnO NPs in the aquatic environment could potentially cause cytotoxic effects on aquatic organisms. Thus, ...
Aquaculture is currently a major source of fish and has the potential to become a major source of protein in the future. These demands require efficient aquaculture. The intestinal microbiota plays an integral role that benefits the host, providing nutrition and modulating the immune system. Although ...
Bangladesh faces huge challenges in achieving food security due to its high population, diet changes, and limited room for expanding cropland and cropping intensity. The objective of this study is to assess the degree to which Bangladesh can be self-sufficient in terms of domestic maize, rice and wheat ...
Malachite green (C23H25ClN2) is an illegal fungicide of aquatic products due to its potential carcinogenic, teratogenic, and mutagenic effects. It is typically challenging to detect C23H25ClN2 in fish with conventional techniques. The study reported a simple and rapid method for detecting C23H25ClN2 ...
International Conference on Intelligent Computing and Control Systems (ICICCS 2018)
Underwater sensor networks are designed to measure various water parameters related to aquaculture applications. To monitor water parameters, deployment of underwater sensor plays an important role since it can improve the capability of investigating the water environment. In this paper a mobility model ...
Fish Robots, especially bio-inspired robots that mimic biological creatures are gaining popularity in research field. Mostly the mathematical modeling, controlling of their kinematics, dynamics, swimming mechanism are main areas of interest. An intelligent Aquatic Robot generally exhibits three major ...
A serious drop in ensuring the water quality in the distribution system is a factor that affects public health. This could lead to increase in biological and non-biological contents, change in colour and odour of the water. These contaminants cause a serious threat to the whole water ecosystem. The ...
The Wide Band Spectral Imager (WBSI) onboard the Tiangong-II space lab was launched at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center of China on September 15, 2016 which has 14 visible and near-infrared (VNIR) spectral bands covering the range from 403-990 nm at a spatial resolution of 100 m. In this paper, the ...
In recent years, the activity of the human has been more and more continual which caused the change of the coastal zone more active than before. So it is vital significant to accurately and quickly extract coastline and real-time monitor the changes. Many approaches have been developed to automatically ...
We present a new dataset, Functional Map of the World (fMoW), which aims to inspire the development of machine learning models capable of predicting the functional purpose of buildings and land use from temporal sequences of satellite images and a rich set of metadata features. The metadata provided ...
With the background of global change, forests are a significant resource for economic activities. In order to investigate the spatial characteristics and heterogeneity in the pattern and dynamic of forests, the forests ecosystem pattern in 1990, 2000, 2015 were rebuilt based on satellite images from ...
