Magnesiothermic reduction can directly convert SiO₂ into Si nanostructures. Despite intense efforts, efficient fabrication of highly nanoporous silicon by Mg still remains a significant challenge due to the exothermic reaction nature. By employing table salt (NaCl) as a heat scavenger for the magnesiothermic reduction, we demonstrate an effective route to...
Capture fisheries and aquaculture in freshwater bodies play a very important role and is considered to have great potential for augmenting fish production as well as diversification of livelihoods in both Cambodia and Vietnam. In Cambodia, inland fisheries remain primary importance in the fisheries sector, while aquaculture is more important...
Smallholder fish farming contribute to improved nutrition, incomes and livelihoods of rural
communities. Despite the potential, aquaculture in most rural areas is based on extensive
production systems characterized by low availability in inputs. In Nyaguta, farmers are involved
in agricultural production activities, including fish farming. However, most farmers do not...
Jellyfish benefit from many of the changes mankind is making to the ocean. Climate change, overfishing, nutrient runoff, the introduction of invasive species, and coastal development all promote these ancient, gelatinous creatures. Because of their familiarity to readers and affinity for degraded places in the ocean, jellyfish are used to...
