Manayay, Mayra Pamela Musayón Diaz et al.This study presents a comprehensive, statistically robust assessment of water resource sustainability in the upper section of the Amojú River Basin, Province of Jaén northern Peruvian Andes, using the Sarandón multi-cirteria methodology. A stratified convenience sample of n = 887 households distributed across 22 localities was surveyed, achieving a margin of error of ±2.61% at the 95% confidence level (finite-population … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 26 Sep 2026 · 719 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpecies Diversity of Lichens in the Burabay State National Park, KazakhstanAizhan Baubekova, Zhanilxan Bukabayeva, Assemgul Sarsenova et al.Lichens constitute essential components of terrestrial ecosystems, and comprehensive documentation of lichen diversity is fundamental for conservation and ecosystem management. This study investigated the species composition and ecological distribution of lichens in Burabay State National Nature Park, northern Kazakhstan. Established in 2000, the park encompasses over 100,000 hectares representing a unique forest-steppe ecotone surrounded by extensive steppe landscapes, supporting approximately … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2026 · 1,828 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Soil Loss Using GIS and RUSLE Model in Bakiya River Basin (BRB), Central NepalSujan Bista, Naresh Kazi Tamrakar, Kishor Rimal, Arju BhattaraiSoil erosion is the major geological hazard in the fragile landscape of Sub-Himalaya. This study examines the susceptibility of the Bakiya River Basin (BRB) in Central Nepal to soil erosion because of its steep topography, fragile geology, the impact of intense monsoon rainfall, and the lack of a direct monitoring mechanism available for rainfall-runoff. This study examines the spatial variations … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 20 Oct 2025 · 3,384 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing Boar Epididymal Sperm Preservation: Comparative Analysis of Slicing Float-Up vs. Flushing and BTS vs. Andromed® Extenders on Sperm Motility and Morphometry TraitsMamonene Angelinah Thema, Ntuthuko Raphael Mkhize, Gerhard van der Horst et al.Epididymal sperm collection represents a valuable strategy for preserving genetics from deceased or castrated boars of superior breeding value. The two primary collection methods-slicing float-up (high sperm yield) and flushing (low blood contamination risk)-differ in sperm recovery efficiency, while semen extenders provide cryoprotective nutrients that protect against cold shock during preservation. This study compared the effects of slicing float-up versus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 14 Mar 2026 · 1,794 accessesView PDFCite
