This study of multilevel governance in contemporary Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in Vietnam used a qualitative methodology to identify the factors that cause fragmentation of governance structures, leading to ineffective management and governance of these MPAs.These factors relate to formal institutions, socio-economic conditions and social capita

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: To carry out a literature review on major orofacial neuropathic pains, their differential diagnosis and therapies.CONTENTS: Neuropathic pains may be classified as episodic or continuous.They may be unilateral and more infrequently bilateral.They may last for seconds, hours or days and may present as electrical sh

In this study, we proposed a novel method for global navigation satellite system (GNSS) ambiguity resolution (AR).The proposed method utilizes an improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) algorithm to obtain the GNSS integer ambiguity with the double differenced (DD) float resolution and its corresponding covariance matrix.First, we introduced po

The study of nanofluids is important due to its vast public health potential.There exist many biomedical applications for nanofluids including drug delivery, magnetic cell separation, hyperthermia testing, photoablation therapy, biosensor development, bone-substituting implants, bioimaging, cell labeling, and gene delivery.Nanofluids are useful in

Unlike imaging in air, underwater panoramic imaging faces great challenges arising from water pressure and diminished light, necessitating special lens packaging and focused underwater illumination.The processing of underwater images from multiple channels necessitates adaptations to existing image processing algorithms to mitigate color cast, nois
