Microplastics pollution poses significant environmental challenge, with river networks serving as major pathways for transport to oceans. Effectively managing microplastics requires identification of their sources and pathways into river networks, yet there is a lack of understanding, hindering successful mitigation efforts. This study demonstrates the novel use of fuzzy logic-based tools in geographic information system (GIS)...

Aquaponics, a symbiotic farming of plants and fish, is a promising solution to address global food security. While aquaponics contributes to nutrient recovery, water reclamation, and reduced land and freshwater use, achieving consistent and economically viable production remains a substantial challenge. Several key issues in aquaponics include maintaining optimal water quality and dissolved oxygen concentration, delivering a b...
