Dominick V. Ninivaggi has authored or co-authored several peer-reviewed publications on topics related to mosquito control and management. Some of his peer-reviewed works include studies on the effects of climate change on the range of the Asian tiger mosquito, integrated marsh management techniques for mosquito control and saltmarsh restoration, and predictive mapping of human risk for West Nile virus. He has also authored works in general readership publications on topics like West Nile virus in New York City and managing mosquitoes on New York's coastline.
The world is facing a crisis in the loss of biodiversity. From the genetic and species level to the ecosystem level, nature is declining globally at rates unprecedented in human history.
Restoration can play a significant role in addressing biodiversity loss, such as by helping to restore and mitigate the loss of critical habitat for threatened species and ecosystems. However, many questions remain around the links between restoration and biodiversity conservation. This session will explore this important and timely topic from multiple perspectives.
Insights of allelopathic, insecticidal and repellent potential of an invasive...Innspub Net
Sphaeranthus suaveolens is a weed from the family Asteraceae, it grows abundantly in wet areas and is most common in rice fields. The extracts from plants closely related to S. suaveolens have been reported to have allelopathic, insecticidal, antifeedant, repellent, and other biological activities. Currently, the use of synthetic chemicals to control weeds and insect pests raises several concerns related to the environment and human health. Extracts from plants with pesticidal properties can offer the best and an environmentally friendly alternative. Some of these extracts have been extensively tested to assess their applications as valuable natural resources in sustainable agriculture. This review article, therefore, explores the potential of S. suaveolens extracts in controlling insect pests and managing weeds by smallholder farmers.

Prior to the BAFTAs, we conducted research on historical film data in order to produce an editorial infographic bitesizes visualising nominees that would resonate with our audience and fellow film buffs.
IPCC Working Group II Contribution to AR5
The Working Group II contribution to the Fifth Assessment Report considers the vulnerability and exposure of human and natural systems, the observed impacts and future risks of climate change, and the potential for and limits to adaptation. The chapters of the report assess risks and opportunities for societies, economies, and ecosystems around the world.
The WGII AR5 Summary for Policymakers was approved at the 10th Session of Working Group II, held in Yokohama, Japan, from 25 to 29 March 2014. The Session also accepted the underlying scientific and technical assessment.

On Sunday, the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released the second part in a major scientific assessment of climate change. The Report found that the effects of climate change are already visible from the tops of the highest mountains to the deep sea, and that society needs to prepare for a wide range of climate change-related threats during the next few decades.
IPCC Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation, and VulnerabilityLisa Winter
This is the report submitted by Working Group II entitled "Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability." This report is leading up to the IPCC's Fifth Assessment Report which will be released this fall.
The emergence of multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) against first-line drugs and extensively drug resistant TB (XDRTB)
due to misuse of second-line anti tubercular drugs (ATDs) is a further concern. Recommended treatment involves
long term and multiple drug therapy with severe side effects. Due to this concern nanoparticle-based systems
have significant potential for treatment and prevention of tuberculosis (TB) to overcome the need to administer
ATDs at high and frequent doses, would assist in improving patient compliance and circumvent hepatotoxic ity
and/or nephrotoxicity/ocular toxicity/ototoxicity associated with the prevalent first-line chemotherapy.
Nanostructured delivery systems constitute a wide range of systems varying from liposomes, micelles, micro- and
nanoemulsions, to polymeric nanoparticles (PNPs ) and solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs). Pulmonary administration
of inhaled nanoparticles in the form of dry powder inhalers offer particular advantages for pulmonary administration
of anti tubercular drugs (ATDs). Present review comprehensively about different approaches of nanobased
drug delivery, devises and techniques for pulmonary delivery of nanoparticle encapsulated ATD.
Effectiveness of Planned Teaching Programme on Knowledge Regarding Environmen...YogeshIJTSRD
Environment is a major determinant of health of individual, family and community. Environmental health consists of preventing or controlling diseases, injury and disability related to interactions between people and their environment. Aim of the present study was to assess the effectiveness of planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding environmental health among women . Quasi experimental one group pretest and posttest design was used. Non. probability convenient sampling technique was adopted . the result findings shows that pre test mean score of environmental health was 11.3 with SD of 3.85 and the post test mean score was 23. 9with SD of 1.19. There was a statistically significant increase in the overall knowledge regarding environmental health after structured teaching programme at p .00001 level. Mrs P.
