Coral reef assemblages, trophic interactions, and food web stability were examined across a remote and densely populated atoll, in the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI). The biomass of sharks, large-bodied piscivores, and secondary invertebrate consumers was expectedly larger in the absence of major human populations. Less intuitively, we report a doubling in the density and biomass of sma...

Warm-Mix-Asphalt (WMA) allows aggregates to be coated with asphalt binder at a temperature lower than the Hot-Mix-Asphalt (HMA) temperatures by using additives that make mixtures more workable and viscosity reduced. Due cost environmental advantages of WMA, it is now frequently employed in pavement. WMA two percentages zeolite (0.3% 0.5%) used this research. The optimum content has value compar...
