Microalgae as a natural ecological bioindicator for the simple real-time monitoring of aquaculture wastewater quality including provision for assessing impact of extremes in climate variance - a comparative case study from the Republic of Ireland
(Elsevier, 2021-08-17)Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing food producing industries globally, providing ~50% of fish for human consumption. However, the rapid growth of aquaculture presents a range of challenges including balancing ... -
Type III solar radio burst detection and classification: a deep learning approach
(IEEE, 2021-06-10)Solar Radio Bursts (SRBs) are generally observed in dynamic spectra and have five major spectral classes, labelled Type I to Type V depending on their shape and extent in frequency and time. Due to their complex characterization, ... -
On the possibility of replacement of calcium carbonate by a high-performance, economically viable filler in polyethylene composites
(Sage, 2021-07-14)Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is frequently added to polyethylene (PE) as a filler to reduce costs. An alternative to CaCO3, calcium fluoride (CaF2) was proposed in this research. PE/CaCO3 and PE/CaF2 composites in a wide ... -
