Provision of Habitat to Temperate Reef Fish by Two Designs of Oyster Aquaculture Cage

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Shelter‐oriented temperate reef fish species are known to utilize oyster aquaculture cages as habitat. To determine whether differences in the structural design of cages affects fish association with aquaculture gear, underwater video census was used to compare fish abundance, and community composition on two off‐bottom cage designs (shelf and bag vs ...

The Use Of Daylight For Interior Illumination System With Window Shade Reflector

, 2017
In recent years, the electric power consumption is needed to reconsider due to global warming and other environmental issues. In order to reduce electric power consumption in office buildings and houses, new illumination system may be a good step to start as illumination system uses about 20-30% electric power in any offices or houses.

Safe and Truly Ecofriendly LED Lighting

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 11, Page 5068-5074, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Truly ecofriendly and safe light‐emitting diode (LED) lighting in the built and urban environments requires the use of LED lights emitting significantly lower amount of blue light than conventional, first‐generation white LED lights. Thanks to substantial technology progress in the design and manufacturing of LEDs, this is now possible at the ...

Simulated daylight vs. conventional PDT for clinical superficial BCC: A randomized controlled trial

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, Volume 39, Issue 11, Page 1997-2004, November 2025.
In this single‐centre, non‐inferiority, randomized controlled trial, SDL‐PDT (n = 95 lesions) was less effective than C‐PDT (n = 98 lesions) in treating superficial basal cell carcinoma One‐year clearance rates: 61.3% with SDL‐PDT versus 91.8% with C‐PDT (p < 0.001).
