This paper describes the necessity of developing ecological monitoring in the Baisha Lake of Nanji Wetland National Natural Reserve. Considering the geographical and environmental factors, the urgent need of ecological monitoring is discussed in the study area. According to the framework of wireless ...
Recently, there are many improvements in Internet of Things (IOT). Through the recombination and optimization, the real-world devices can provide their functionality as web services in IOT. However, it is very difficult to cost-effectively access to the Internet of Things due to the environmental changes. ...
Aquatic Vegetation serve variety of uses in a water eco system, some of which are vital to the overall health of the aquatic environment and also to add to the aesthetics of its surroundings and to provide a suitable habitat for aquaculture. Excess growth of these plants may indicate an imbalance and ...
Underwater Wireless Sensor Network (UWSN) environments have some very specific characteristics which introduce many challenges. Due to lack of sunlight as well as harsh conditions of underwater environment it is very difficult to change batteries and maintain power supply in underwater sensor nodes ...
Induced-swimming can improve the growth and feed conversion efficiency of finfish aquaculture species, such as salmonids and Seriola sp., but some species, such as Atlantic cod, show no or a negative productivity response to exercise. As a possible explanation for these species-specific differences, ...
The onset of exogenous feeding, when juveniles emerge from the gravel, is a critical event for salmonids where early emergence and large size provide a competitive advantage in the wild. Studying 131 farmed, hybrid and wild Norwegian Atlantic salmon families, originating from four wild populations and ...
A method to mitigate or possibly eliminate reproduction in farmed fish is highly demanded. The existing approaches have certain applicative limitations. So far, no immunization strategies affecting gonadal development in juvenile animals have been developed. We hypothesized that autoimmune mechanisms, ...
The effects of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) exposure and sodium selenite supplementation on cell apoptosis of jejunum in broilers were studied. A total of 240 one-day-old male AA broilers were randomly assigned four dietary treatments containing 0 mg/kg of AFB1 (control), 0.3 mg/kg AFB1 (AFB1), 0.4 mg/kg supplement ...
Resistance to pathogens is important for the sustainability and profitability of food fish production. In immune-related genes, the lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) gene is an important mediator of the inflammatory reaction. We analyzed the cDNA and genomic structure of the LBP gene in tilapia. ...
As new pathogenic strains are emerging and threatening aquaculture development, myxosporeans (Myxozoa) are receiving much attention in recent years. Myxosporean taxonomy is traditionally based on morphology of the myxospore stage. Molecular data on Indian myxosporeans are rare. In this report, the 18S ...
Argo is a global array of 3,000 free-drifting profiling floats that will measure the temperature, pressure and salinity of the upper 2000 m of the ocean. This will allow continuous monitoring of the climate state of the ocean, with all data being relayed and made publicly available within hours after ...
A robot accepted by animals as conspecific is a very powerful tool in behavioral biology, particularly in studies of gregarious animals. In this paper we present the first results of acceptance of a robotic fish designed for experiments on collective animal behavior. The robot consists of two modules: ...
The cases of ball lightning (BL) energy estimations when the energy density of its substance was greater than 1010 J/m3 are described. The high energy can be explained if one assumes that BL energy is a kinetic energy of elements of its core. It is shown that moving particles may be kept inside a heterogeneous ...
Big Data have created a number of challenges in relation to the management of their complexity and variability, mainly by their aggregation and synthesis. This paper focuses on the different aspects of individuality that are affected by the use of Big Data. Specifically, it proposes in detail specific ...
Water quality of the Jansen Lagoon (São Luís, Maranhão State, Brazil) was assessed through histological biomarkers and microbiological parameters. To this end, 29 fish specimens (11 Centropomus undecimalis and 18 Sardinella sp) and eight water samples were collected during the rainy and dry periods ...
Developing a web mining scheme that takes plain text (for example, a paragraph of a story) as an input to generate multimodal learning materials from the Internet sources could be of great help to both teachers and children with special needs. This paper proposes a solution which at first extracts the ...
Introduction: Human leptospirosis is a global zoonotic infection with a characteristic biphasic illness and protean clinical manifestations. The majority are mild flu-like infections. The severe forms cause multiorgan damage with a greater predilection to hepatorenal failure. Case presentation: We ...
Background We work on the development of transgenic sexing strains in the codling moth, Cydia pomonella (Tortricidae), which would enable to produce male-only progeny for the population control of this pest using sterile insect technique (SIT). To facilitate this research, we have developed a number ...
In recordings of naturals environments there is often a predominant color due to the type environment such as a forest, a desert or ocean. Currently, there are a wide range of available video codecs that provide different compression results for different types of videos based on their predominant colors. ...
The giant honeybee Apis dorsata often forms dense colony aggregations which can include up to 200 often closely related nests in the same location, setting the stage for inbred matings. Yet, like in all other Apis species, A. dorsata queens mate in mid-air on lek like drone congregation areas (DCAs) ...
