Sustainable Wastewater Management and Treatment
Direct application of anaerobic digestion to sewage treatment is normally only possible
under tropical weather conditions. This is the result of its diluted nature and temperatures far from
those suitable for anaerobic conversion of organic matter.…

Zebrafish Models for Development and Disease 2.0
Gelatinase A (Mmp2 in zebrafish) is a well-characterized effector of extracellular matrix
remodeling, extracellular signaling, and along with other matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and
extracellular proteases, it plays important roles in the…

Diversity of Coral-Associated Fauna II
Coral reefs are known to be among the most biodiverse marine ecosystems and one of the
richest in terms of associations and species interactions, especially those involving invertebrates such
as corals and sponges. Despite that, our knowledge about…

Ecology and Conservation of Freshwater Fishes Biodiversity
Our study analyzes the distribution of fish communities related to the environmental
variables of the Alto Madre de Dios River, an Andean-Amazon watershed of southern Peru, between
300 and 2811 m a.s.l. within the Manu Biosphere Reserve. We provide…

Current Advances and Challenges in Fisheries and Aquaculture Science: Feature Papers for the New Journey of Fishes
In ectotherm species, environmental temperature plays a key role in development, growth,
and survival. Thus, determining how temperature affects fish populations is of utmost importance to
accurately predict the risk of climate change over…

Biology and Control of Invasive Fishes
Across the globe, dozens of species of invasive fish are now found in fresh as well as
marine waters, where they alter habitats, compete with native fish for food, and prey on native fishes,
exerting both indirect and direct effects on ecosystems…

Coastal Fish Research
Invasive alien species (IAS) are one of the greatest causes of native species extinction.
Indeed, they represent a global threat for biodiversity and can also affect the economy and human
health. The colonization success of IAS is presumably not…

Retreat or Entrenchment?: Drug Policies in the Nordic Countries at a Crossroads
The drug policies of the Nordic countries have been relatively strict. Since this seems to contradict the internationally recognized liberal criminal policy in general, analyses have been devoted to try to understand this gap. Why doesn’t the…
Understanding Drugs Markets: An Analysis of Medicines, Regulations and Pharmaceutical Systems in the Global South
Drawing on anthropology, historical sociology and social-epidemiology, this multidisciplinary book investigates how pharmaceuticals are produced, distributed, prescribed, (and) consumed, and regulated in order to construct a comprehensive…
Offshore Renewable Energy: Ocean Waves, Tides and Offshore Wind
This book covers technical articles based on individual contributions from a number of authors working on offshore wind, wave and tidal energy research. Articles describing various aspects of offshore wind, wave and tidal energies including resource…
