Removal of Posidonia oceanica banquettes from Sakarun beach (Dugi otok Island, Croatia) was a common practice to increase recreational use during the summer tourist season. The sandy part of the beach showed gradual erosion and has partially disappeared.
Histerektomi adalah jenis operasi yang sangat umum dan dapat menjadi operasi yang menyelamatkan jiwa bagi beberapa wanita dengan jenis kanker tertentu atau pendarahan rahim yang deras. Hal ini juga dapat meningkatkan kualitas hidup wanita yang mengalami menometrorrhagia, uterine leiomyomata, endometriosis atau uterine prolapse. Namun, sebelum memulai histerektomi, penting untuk mengetahui dan m…

Whether it is possible to ensure stability, peace and social cohesion in countries with deep societal divisions where identity prevails over other bases of mobilisation is one of the central political questions of our time. What type of institutional design suits deeply mobilised cleavages? This chapter discusses the different institutional approaches adopted in three federations of Africa to m…
Buku ini membahas topik yang sangat spesifik dalam hidrologi nuklir atau hidrogeologi. Edisi Khusus bertajuk "Applications of Stable Isotopes and Tritium in Hydrology" ini menyajikan metodologi mutakhir dalam pemanfaatan perunut (tracer) isotop untuk menguraikan proses hidrologi yang kompleks dan siklus air secara global.

"In an effort to challenge the ways in which colonial power relations and Eurocentric knowledges are reproduced in participatory research, this book explores whether and how it is possible to use arts-based methods for creating more horizontal and democratic research practices. In discussing both the transformative potential and limitations of arts-based methods, the book asks: What can arts-ba…
In this work poly(lactic) acid (PLA)/poly(butylene succinate-co-adipate) (PBSA) biobased binary blends were investigated. PLA/PBSA mixtures with different compositions of PBSA (from 15 up to 40 wt.%) were produced by twin screw-extrusion. A first screening study was performed on these blends that were characterized from the melt fluidity, morphological and thermo-mechanical point of view
Chemical modification of wood with green modifiers is highly desirable for sustainable development. With the aim of enhancing the water resistance and dimensional stability of fast growing wood, modifications were conducted using renewable and toxicity-free industrial lignin combined with heat treatment
Polymeric nanocomposites have received significant attention in both scientific and industrial research in recent years. The demand for new methods of food preservation to ensure high-quality, healthy foods with an extended shelf life has increased. Packaging, a crucial feature of the food industry, plays a vital role in satisfying this demand
Polymer composites with different reinforcements have many applications. By adjusting process settings and adding fibers and fillers, composite properties can be improved. Additive manufacturing is popular in the polymer industry because it can manufacture intricately designed parts with fewer defects and greater strength with less material consumption
