Ballast water management and their system processing

Fundamental and applied researches in practice of leading scientific schools, 2019
Ballast water provides stability and maneuverability to a ship. Large ships can carry millions of gallons of ballast water. Ballast water discharged by ships can have a negative impact on the marine environment. There are thousands of marine species that may be carried in ships’ ballast water; In order to reduce the risk of new introductions of exotic ...

Combining the Underwater Vision Profiler 6 with sediment traps to measure in situ velocity of marine particles

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Particles sinking from the surface to the deep ocean play a key role in the biological carbon pump, whose efficiency depends partly on sinking velocities. Over the last decade, in situ imaging has enabled critical advances in our understanding of particle dynamics in the ocean.

Addressing false negatives and positives in eDNA studies

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 7, Page 1977-2008, July 2026.
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) has revolutionized the study of ecology and biodiversity, enabling species detection without direct observation in the environment. However, the implications of detection errors, specifically false positives and false negatives, are poorly reported in eDNA studies, significantly hindering our understanding of the ...

Forage Plant Host and Early Feeding Choices Affect Spodoptera litura Feeding, Development and Egg‐Laying

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 670-684, July 2026.
We assessed Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) performance on five common pasture plant species. Larvae consumed more dock, plantain and chicory per day than red or white clover, but with lower conversion efficiencies. Feeding on red clover reduced weights and egg laying, and lengthened development times compared with plantain.

Worldwide Invasions of Centrarchidae: The Dark Side of the Sunfish Family

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 781-812, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater fish invasions are major drivers of global ecological change, disrupting native biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However, many invasive fish hold significant socioeconomic value, resulting in conflict over their management. Centrarchidae, which are globally distributed and are important for sportfishing and aquaculture, are now

Energy‐Efficient Combustion Technologies and Burner Designs for Glass Melting Furnaces

International Journal of Applied Glass Science, Volume 17, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Glass production is one of the most energy‑intensive manufacturing processes, requiring furnace temperatures above 1600°C. These temperatures depend on burners that must balance thermal efficiency with emission reductions. This article reviews the development of combustion systems in glass furnaces, focusing on their impact on energy ...
