The fishery sector, including capture, aquaculture, processing and suportive services, plays an important role to the whole economy of Vietnam. Total aquatic production of the country increased about 3 times after 15 years, from 1.02 million tones in 1990 to 3.43 million tones in 2005. The growth of aquaculture production...
The Mekong River Delta plays an essential role to Vietnam’s economy in terms of both rice and fish production. Annual flooding water and a rich level of aquatic resources strongly affect about 10 million
local people, as well as extend beyond the boundaries of wetland itself. Flooding water and wild...
Local community in the Mekong Delta is said to be “fish eating society” where 70% of their animal protein relies on fish products. The Mekong Delta contributes more than 60% of total aquaculture production and 40% of total wild fish catch of Vietnam. Among a large number of fishing boats,...
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...
Thermal stabilization of chlorophyll and anthocyanin on pear peels during thermal process was investigated in this study. The green color of peels-on thermally processed (canned) pears was successfully retained by complexation of magnesium-free chlorophyll with zinc ions, and the red pigments were stabilized through anthocyanin-stannous complexation and polymerization of pear...
The long history of the van chai system of Vietnam began several centuries ago with their establishment mainly in the lower and middle reaches of rivers northern Vietnam and in coastal lagoons in Central Vietnam, whereas those in marine embayments, like Ha Long Bay, and in enclosed coastal areas, like...

The paper adopts the double-bootstrap data envelopment analysis developed by Simar and Wilson in 2007 to estimate and explain technical efficiency of white-leg shrimp farming in Ninh Thuan, Vietnam. This procedure not only enables consistent inference within models explaining efficiency scores but also produces confidence intervals for these efficiency scores....

Co-management has attracted considerable attention around the world, including in Vietnam. However, debates on the concept of community-based management (CBM), co-management (COM), and community participant management in Vietnam are increasing, and the abundance of projects in Vietnam has now become a major constraint. Although most pilot co-management projects are recorded...
Objective
Our objective was to use episodic memory and executive function tests to determine whether or not Chiari Malformation Type I (CM) patients experience cognitive dysfunction.
Background
CM is a neurological syndrome in which the cerebellum descends into the cervical spine causing neural compression, severe headaches, neck pain, and number...
The problem of a fixed rectangular structure of unit width in a
train of simple harmonic normally-incident waves is modeled. The solution
allows for variable (1) length and draft of structure, (2) differing
depths in the three (fore, aft, and beneath the structure) distinct
regions, and (3) wave period. The...
Fisheries models are generally built to assess the dynamics of a resource with a given fishing mortality
which level can be decided by some “decision maker” and/or which can be an observed process, e.g. times series proportional to some observed values of fishing effort. In these cases, the resource dynamics...
The problem of heat transfer due to free convection in a channel formed
by two parallel, isoflux, vertical plates is of considerable importance in electronic
cooling applications, thermosiphons, the optimum spacing of plates or components,
industrial stacks, heat exchangers, nuclear power plants and combustion involving
vertical walls. Although in each...
A second-order nonlinear diffraction theory is developed for a
large diameter circular cylinder under the action of surface gravity
waves of finite amplitude in water of-finite depth. Boundary value
problems are derived by using a perturbation expansion and the
solutions for the diffracted waves are given in terms of Fredholm...
Active transmission lines, a generalization of classical transmission
lines, are useful electrical devices. They can be utilized to
realize distributed amplifiers and to obtain other electrical characteristics unattainable with passive lines. Active lines have historical
significance and model many physical processes including heat
conduction in an internally heated material, a...

A complete solution, exact to second-order, for wave motion
forced by a hinged-wavemaker of variable-draft is presented. A
solution for a piston type wavemaker is also obtained as a special
case of a hinged-wavemaker with negative infinite draft. The
existing Stokes inviscid theories for mass transport is extended to
include...

The compressive behavior of continuous fiber composites is not as well
understood as their tensile behavior because research and industrial applications have until
recently focused on the latter. Furthermore, most theoretical and experimental studies on
the compression of composites have examined the case of unidirectional specimens with
fibers along the...
This study includes an analytical solution to the wave-current
barrier interaction problem and large scale experiments to validate the
theory.
The boundary value problem is solved mathematically by characterizing
the flow field and barrier motion separately, then coupling
the relationships with the appropriate kinematic and dynamic boundary
conditions.
The flow...
This research presents a u-channel based study of the natural remanent magnetization (NRM), the laboratory magnetization, Anhysteretic Remanent Magnetization (ARM), and magnetic susceptibility (k), from the upper 100 m of International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 383 Site U1543 in the eastern South Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean.

The indicated sum of a real scalar and a real or imaginary
vector is called a scator. Either the scalar part or the vector part
may be null. Scators generalize the complex variable to n-space.
The algebra of scators is not generally associative under multiplication
but the commutative and distributive...

Sedimentary records from the North Atlantic, instrumental in the development of modern paleo-geomagnetic concepts, show a highly variable field even during times of constant polarity. Yet, our understanding of how the magnetization is acquired in the sediments is poorly understood. Primary magnetizations preserved in deep-sea sediments are known to be...

A global solution is presented that accurately accounts for the
singular behavior at all irregular points. The linearized boundary

transformed into a smooth unit disk by two successive conformal
mappings. The global solution results from a Fredholm integral
equation...
Burial Lake sediments from the Noatak Basin in the northwest Brooks Range of Arctic Alaska (68.43°N, 159.17°W, 21.5 m water depth) provide the oldest continuous lacustrine record of paleo-environmental change and paleomagnetic secular variation (PSV) in eastern Beringia. A precise radiocarbon chronology, determined through accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) allows us...

Random waves are often expressed as a mathematical superposition
of an infinite number of sinusoidal components. The mean square spectral
density of the water surface elevation is often called the wave spectrum.
The zero upcrossing wave heights usually have a Rayleigh probability
distribution. However, the design wave concept is still...
