Low-Cost System Based on Optical Sensor to Monitor Discharge of Industrial Oil in Irrigation Ditches
Uncontrolled dumping linked to agricultural vehicles causes an increase in the incorporation of oils into the irrigation system. In this paper, we propose a system based on an optical sensor to monitor oil concentration in the irrigation ditches.

Is the threatened land crab Cardisoma guanhumi conquering human-dominated systems? [PDF]
Land use change has been recognized as a major contributor to habitat destruction, the main cause of biodiversity loss. However, recent findings show that cities – probably the most radical habitat transformation – may sustain threatened species. This intriguing trend has been mostly chronicled in small‐scale studies of vertebrate communities from ...
