But in the next process, it will experience an accumulation or concentration so that at certain concentrations, it can cause the negative impact on the environment. The results from the previous research showed that the water hyacinth plant (Eichhornia crassipes) has the highest ability in reducing heavy metal pollution of mercury. The objective of this research is to analyze the ability of the water hyacinth plant (Eichhornia crassipes) in reducing the concentration of metal with variety of water flow rates. This research was conducted to test the water hyacinth plant (Eichhornia crassipes) in some discharge water sources which contaminated with mercury in the downstream of gold mining in Batang Hari River on a laboratory scale with a continuous flow. The result of this research revealed that the water hyacinth plant (Eichhornia crassipes) can lower the concentration of heavy metals Hg to the limit of water quality for irrigation.

In this study we use a Nd isotope combination of bulk sediment geochemistry, Nd and Sr isotope geochemistry, and single grain zircon U-Pb Erosion dating to understand the source of sediment in the modern drainage. We also performed zircon U-Pb dating on Provenance Eocene sedimentary rocks sampled by International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 349 in order to Pearl River constrain the source of sediment to the rift before the Oligocene.

  • The Use of Social Capital in Organizing the Frog Festival Of
    doi: 10.14456/jms.2018.4 The Use of Social Capital in Organizing the Frog Festival of Baying Village in the Context of Cultural Tourism Development1 Houdian Yaa and Jaggapan Cadchumsangb* abFaculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Khon Kaen University Khon Kaen 40002, Thailand *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This article deals with the use of social capital in organizing the Frog Festival in a Zhuang ethnic village in China amidst the expansion of cultural tourism. The data used were drawn from qualitative research in Baying Village, Donglan District, Hechi City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, People’s Republic of China. Key informant interviews as well as participant and non-participant observations were the main data collection techniques employed in the field research. The study found that there are three forms of social capital-namely, networks, norms, and trust-employed in the organization of the Frog Festival, which has become a part of China’s cultural tourism development. Social capital in the form of networks includes bonding networks among relatives, bridging networks between Baying residents and Zhuang outside the village, and linking networks between Baying villagers and the state as well as agencies from outside. Of the three forms of network, bonding is the most important because it connects not only those who have genealogical relationships, but also Zhuang dwellers from nearby villages to actively take part in organizing the festival. The research also indicates key roles of the other two categories of social capital-norms and trust-used in the organization of the Frog Festival which have allowed for its success in Baying and generated strong social networks.

In furtherance of this purpose their Majesties, the King and Queen of Norway, the Norwegian Geographical So- ciety, the Royal Geographical Society of London, and Koninklijk Nederlandsch Aardrijkskundig Genootschap, generously assisted me with grants, thus facilitating my efforts to raise the necessary funds. Subscriptions were received in Norway, also from American and English friends, and after purchasing the principal part of my outfit in London, I departed for New York in the au- tumn of 1913, en route for the Dutch Indies.

This infor- mation can be used to predict recruitment and fish stock enchancement of C. lucius within the of domestication and aquaculture. The research was held in January until November 2012 in Singkarak Lake West Sumatera Province, in foodplain, Pematang Lindung sub district Mendahara Ulu Regency East Tanjung Jabung, Jambi Province, and in foodplain Mentulik Regency Kampar Kiri Hilir Riau Province. The amount of sam- ples that was observed was 30 gonado of female fish Gonado Maturity Level III and IV in each research location. The total of C. lucius fecun- dity from West Sumatera is 1.996±568 eggs in which each egg has 1,35±0,09 mm in diameter, from Jambi is 2.196±866 eggs, each eggs has 1,53±0,11 mm, and Riau is 2.539±716 eggs, each has 1,70±0,14 mm in diameter.

Misleading titleBy Laura I.With most books targeting a particular species of animal, information is given on the animal's native habitat, its care in captivity, physical characteristics, sexual dimorphism, and reproduction. Not so in this book. I was treated to three paragraphs about the physical characteristics, one of which just repeating the best points of the other two, in large font. The remaining 35 pages are filled with a relatively decent guide on setting up an aquarium, albeit riddled with spelling mistakes. The last five pages are blank.As a guide to the delightful kuhli loach, this book is a disaster.

  • Phylogenetic Position of the Fish Genus Ellopostoma (Teleostei: Cypriniformes) Using Molecular Genetic Data
    157 Ichthyol. Explor. Freshwaters, Vol. 20, No. 2, pp. 157-162, 2 figs., June 2009 © 2009 by Verlag Dr. Friedrich Pfeil, München, Germany – ISSN 0936-9902 Phylogenetic position of the fish genus Ellopostoma (Teleostei: Cypriniformes) using molecular genetic data Jörg Bohlen* and Vendula Šlechtová* We investigated the phylogenetic position of Ellopostoma based on nuclear sequence data (RAG-1 gene). Ellopo- stoma is a member of the superfamily Cobitoidea (loaches) of Cypriniformes, but does not belong to any of the currently recognised families. It represents an independent lineage, recognised as a distinct new family Ellopo- stomatidae, characterized by a squarish and oblique snout, a minute protrusible mouth, a single pair of barbels, large eyes and 35-38 pharyngeal teeth.
