All living things require clean, uncontaminated water as the most crucial compound for life on Earth
Ideally, drinking water should be clear, colorless, and well aerated, with no unpalatable taste or odor, and it should contain no suspended matter, harmful chemical substances, or pathogenic microorganisms.
Wastewater discharge from industries, agricultural pollution, municipal wastewater, and poor environmental sanitation are the main sources of water contamination
The primary productivity of phytoplankton, macroalgae, and seagrasses forms the base of marine ecosystem structuring in aquatic environments. Primary productivity is affected by various environmental factors and ecological processes that usually interact in a complex manner. The rate of primary production usually governs the overall ecosystem health and ecological productivity of a water body, and any observed trends may reveal the occurrence of potential stresses on existing ecosystems. Along the Saudi Gulf coast, primary productivity monitoring may help provide the basis for identifying the potential stressors to the coastal marine environments. Foremost among the considerations is the potential adverse effect of excessive anthropogenic nutrient loadings, which may lead to eutrophication events that can adversely impact on ecosystem health. In addition, high nutrient loads from man-made activities may trigger the excessive growth of some toxic phytoplankton species, potentially resulting in harmful algal blooms (HABs) with serious human health risks and negative economic impacts.
This study is geared towards monitoring the primary productivity levels in selected areas of the Saudi Gulf waters to identify areas of concern as regards hyper-nutrification, ecological disturbance, and potential hot spots for HAB events. Nutrient loadings and the identification of potential HAB organisms will form a special focus of the investigations.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.
