Farmer-to-farmer extension approach was introduced for small-scale freshwater aquaculture development in the seven provinces of the southern Benin in the course of a technical cooperation project of Japan. Firstly, some relatively active and capable fish farmers were selected and trained together with extension officers of the government to be "core...

These data set includes calibrated predictions of Depth, Velocity and Shear Stress for seven discharges (0.4 to 3.4m^3, equivalent to 0.12 Qbf to Qbf) at Oak Creek using the Flow and Sediment Transport with Morphological Evolution of Channels (FaSTMECH).
This data contains large supplementary tables for the PhD dissertation of Dariia Vyshenska. Title of the Dissertation: "Identification of Cervical Cancer Key Regulators using Network Biology Approach"
The dataset contains data from two types of research.
Research #1: Identification of bacterial regulators of cervical cancer gene expression. It contains microbial...
Many Gram-negative bacteria use a type III secretion system (T3SS) to establish associations with their hosts. The T3SS is a conduit for direct injection of type-III effector proteins into host cells, where they manipulate the host for the benefit of the infecting bacterium. For plant-associated pathogens, the variations in number...
The integration of satellite image data with forest inventory plot data is a popular approach for mapping forest vegetation over large regions. Several methodological choices regarding spatial scale, mostly related to spatial resolution or grain, can profoundly influence forest maps developed from plot and imagery data. Yet often the consequences...
Prevention of wellbore CO₂ leakage is a critical component of any successful carbon capture, utilization, and storage program. Sporosarcina pasteurii is a bacterium that has demonstrated the potential ability to seal a compromised wellbore through the enzymatic precipitation of CaCO₃. Here we investigate the growth of S. pasteurii in a...
We examine the 0–100 Ma paleoceanographic record retained in pelagic clay from the South Pacific Gyre (SPG) by analyzing 47 major, trace, and rare earth elements in bulk sediment in 206 samples from seven sites drilled during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 329. We use multivariate statistical analyses (Q-mode factor analysis...
We propose a mathematical formulation for strategic relay network design and dispatching method selection for full truckload transportation. The proposed model minimizes total transportation and installation costs of a mixed fleet dispatching system combining relay network and point-to-point dispatching. Operational constraints such as maximum driver tour length and load circuity...
Extensive first-pass metabolism of ingested bisphenol A (BPA) in the gastro-intestinal tract and liver restricts blood concentrations of bioactive BPA to < 1% of total BPA in humans and non-human primates. Absorption of ingested BPA through non-metabolizing tissues of the oral cavity, recently demonstrated in dogs, could lead to the...
