The Bacanga River Estuary is socioeconomically important due to artisanal fishing and aquaculture. It blocked by a dam under human pressure along its drainage basin, intensifying the eutrophication process. This study reports on occurrence of phytoplankton blooms trophic state (TSI TRIX) at six sampling sites during annual cycle. estuary was divided into downstream upstream regions. Higher sali...

For the first time a record of total solar irradiance covering 9300 years is presented, which covers almost the entire Holocene. This reconstruction is based on a recently observationally derived relationship between total solar irradiance and the open solar magnetic field. Here we show that the open solar magnetic field can be obtained from the cosmogenic radionuclide Be measured in ice cores....

In modern society, printers are widely used in the office environment. This study investigated particle number and PM2.5 emissions from printers using the TSI SMPS, TSI CPC 3022, and 3025A TSI P-Trak and DustTrak. The monitoring of particle characteristics in a large open-plan office showed that particles generated by printers can significantly (p = 0.01) affect the submicrometer particle numbe...

Perinatal mortality has declined in Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and non-Indigenous populations by 2-3 percent per year over the last 16 years. However, perinatal mortality in babies born to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island (TSI) mothers is approximately twice that in babies born to nonIndigenous mothers, and the gap between these populations has not narrowed in 16 years. A major deter...

Interest in measuring the sustainability of tourism has been significantly advancing recent years, together with need to manage impact on territories and hosting communities. This interest was further boosted by pandemic, being identified as one central elements restarting global tourism. The European Tourism Indicator System (ETIS), developed Commission, is a point reference based self-assessm...
