This study investigated effects of traffic control technology and traffic officers on road traffic regulation in Ado-Ekiti. Specifically, it examined the perceived effectiveness of automated traffic control systems such as Closed Circuit Television (CCTV), traffic lights, speed c...

Urban Expansion and Its Effects on Land Resources and Environmental Sustainability

Urban expansion has become one of the most significant drivers of land-use change and environmental transformation worldwide, particularly in developing countries where rapid population growth and economic development have intensified pressure on limited land resources. While urb...

Sustainable Management and Conservation of Shere Hills Forest Reserve Using Integrated GIS and Remote Sensing Techniques: A Multi-Temporal Analysis

Forest reserves are increasingly threatened by anthropogenic activities and climate-induced environmental change, necessitating robust geospatial techniques for effective monitoring and sustainable management. This study evaluated the long-term dynamics and conservation status of...

Continuous Fabrication of Bioinspired All-Biomass Aerogel Fibers for Thermal Insulation

Abstract Aerogel fibers have been considered as a promising solution for thermal protection textiles due to their high porosity and low thermal conductivity. However, the scalable production of sustainable and mechanical strong aerogel fibers remains a critical challenge. Here, i...

Estimating the ecosystem attributes and ecological carrying capacity of commercially important fishes for sustainable development of fisheries in a tropical reservoir

Context Fish production from Gayatri Reservoir in India remains substantially below the estimated potential, highlighting a considerable gap with actual yield, underscoring need for fisheries management. Aims To bridge the gap, trophic model of the reservoir was constructed to as...
