The current high rate of food waste production, concomitant with the global increase in population and demand, has adverse effects on environmental socio-economic conditions. However, been shown to be an efficient safe source fertilizer agriculture practice. Moreover, minimizing application chemical fertilizers is a goal sustainable agriculture. Considering these facts, we aimed compare effect (CF-3,8 g·pot−1) different doses mixed waste-derived (MF-10.6 g·pot−1), two-fold MF (MF × 2),...
Objectives: The project assessed the efficacy of a home-based intervention program for young children (n = 64, ages ranging from 3 to 6 years) with developmental delays in Vietnam. It was hypothesized that group would show greater progress adaptive behavior than control group.Methods: Assessment carried out by comparing who received services months and those did not.

농어목 비늘베도라치과에 속하는 Neoclinus chihiroe 1개체 (52.5 mm SL)가 2020년 12월 9일 독도에서 잠수조사를 통해 처음 채집되었다. 이 종의 특징은 등지느러미 첫 번째 극조와 두 극조 사이에 검은색 점을 가지고 있으며, 아가미 덮개 뒤편 위쪽에 있었다. 종은 N. okazakii와 형태적으로 유사하였지만, 가슴지느러미 기부에 검은 가지지 않는 점에서 구별된다. 이번 연구는 chihiroe의 국내 출현을 보고하며 새로운 국명은 ‘동해비늘베도라치’로 제안한다.
