Low breeding propensity in a declining Arctic‐breeding swan revealed by telemetry data
Many migratory bird populations are declining in the face of habitat degradation and climate change, making it important to identify which stages of their annual cycle are most affected in order to guide conservation measures. The Bewick's Swan Cygnus columbianus bewickii, an Arctic‐breeding waterfowl species, has suffered a dramatic population decline

Utilization of aquatic plants: a method to enhance the productivity of water in seasonal tanks in the Anuradhapura District [PDF]
Heavy infestations of aquatic plants in a water body cause considerable economic and ecological losses. Many seasonal tanks in the Anuradhapura District suffer from this problem and cannot be neglected in water resource development and management schemes.

Biofloc‐based aquaculture: From monoculture to integrated systems
Abstract The demand for high‐quality protein has been growing in recent years, led by population growth. The development of aquaculture has been considered one of the solutions to ensure food security worldwide. New farming technologies have been promoted to increase productivity and, at the same time, minimize environmental impacts.
