Assessment of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Different Land‐Use Systems: A Case Study of CO2 in the Southern Zone of Ghana

Applied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
The emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs) results in global warming and climate change. The extent to which developing countries contribute to GHG emissions is not well known. This study reports findings on the effects of different land‐use systems on GHG emissions (CO2 in this case) from two locations in the southern zone of Ghana, West Africa. Site one

Chemical Cues for Malaria Vectors Oviposition Site Selection: Challenges and Opportunities

Journal of Insects, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The attractiveness of oviposition site for malaria vector mosquitoes is dependent upon a number of physical and chemical factors. Many aspects of mosquito behavior, including host location and oviposition, are mediated by volatile semiochemicals. It is anticipated that selection of oviposition site by semio‐chemicals in the form of attractants or ...
