The population structure and habitat use of resident of Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata) in Wu River (Southwest China) by Canshi Hu

“…Compared to traditional breeding ranges, both adults and ducklings of this species were more likely to experience human-related disturbances due to the limited availability of ancient trees outside villages. This information will contribute to provide baseline knowledge on the resident population of Mandarin ducks, and enhance understanding of the causes and consequences of breeding partial migration.…”

Photovoltaic Generation Integration with Radial Feeders Using GA and GIS by Elias Mandefro Getie, Belachew Bantyirga Gessesse, Tewodros Gera Workneh

“…The loss of power in the radial feeders can be minimized using an optimally allocated photovoltaic (PV) generation system by considering the information of geography, solar irradiance of the site, and space availability, which should not have shadow from large buildings and trees. The PV generation system eliminates the problem of power demand by enhancing the capacity of the power network as well as by reducing the depletion and consumption of fossil fuel resources. …”

Morphological Diversity of Gracilaria blodgettii Harvey 1853 (Gracilariaceae, Rhodophyta) from Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo by Ruhana Hassan, Muhammad Nur Arif Othman, Mohd Nasarudin Harith, Amir Shah Ruddin Md Sah

“…However, based on 672 bp CO1-5P gene sequence analysis, all the three species were identified as G. blodgettii; besides, low genetic divergence values (0.17%–0.34%) were scored between samples in this study with the same species in GenBank. In the phylogenetic trees, all samples in this study group together with other G. blodgettii have high bootstrap values; thus, this species is monophyletic. …”
