Forest conservation practices: Insights of local communities near wildlife-protected areas in Ghana

Journal of Agriculture and Rural Development in the Tropics and Subtropics
Effective forest conservation relies on active community participation; however, local communities in Ghana are often excluded from policy development. This study explored community perspectives on forest conservation by identifying practices that local ...

A LITERATURE REVIEW ON LAND USE LAND COVER CHANGES.

International Journal of Advanced Research, 2018
The present paper discusses the phenomena of land use and land cover (LULC) which has undergone constant changes over the past few decades due to major variations in the environment caused by anthropogenic and natural factors. A comprehensive review of the studies has done so far in which a decreasing pattern in land use land coverage has been ...

Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery
