Advances in Natural Hazards and Hydrological Risks: Meeting the Challenge

This book gathers the proceedings of the 2nd International Workshop on Natural Hazards (NATHAZ'19), held in Lajes do Pico, Pico Island, Azores in 2019. Natural hazards constitute the threat of a naturally occurring event having a negative effect on human beings. These effects are often called natural disasters. Among the natural hazards and potential disasters to be considered are: earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, subsidence, floods, droughts and coastal erosion. In addition, there are anthropogenic hazards that occur as a result of human interactions with the environment. They include technological hazards, which occur due to exposure to hazardous substances in the environment. ...

Fish Diet, Health and Control in Aquaculture

This book delves into the current and emerging trends in the field of marine fish nutrition and health in tropical aquaculture systems in Sabah, Malaysia. The book chapters highlight the best practices in aquaculture from an experiential perspective and encompass sustainable feed production based on soldier flies as feedstock, copepods as live feed, incorporation of small molecules such as nucleotides as immune boosters, and the management of bacterial and fungal diseases in aquaculture. All of these elements constitute the foundation for the enhancement of productivity and efficiency of aquaculture systems within the context of sustainable ecosystems. The contents of this book will be of relevance to both academicians and practitioners of aquaculture and will offer valuable insights into the methodologies which can be applied to improve productivity and fish health in marine aquaculture systems.

Sponge City Hybrid Infrastructure

This book focuses on the access to water in the building and its surroundings, to infer the mutual interaction and the complex interconnection of green/blue infrastructures. This book is a tool for understanding the multifunctional functionality of urban waste water to recognize their efficient and strategically useful potential in the form of aesthetic and functional architectural elements—vertical gardens, waterproof roof systems, rain gardens, retention rainwater recirculation tanks, biomarkers for wastewater treatment, and other progressive technologies and technical solutions. The originality of the proposed book and the innovation of the proposed objectives lies in the complexity and interdisciplinary of the problem solved, with clear continuity and utilization in professional building, environmental, and psychosocial practice. Understanding the quality of life as a category influenced by several objective and subjective conditions, this manuscript draws up recommendations on how to build “green buildings”—progressively supplied with water, connecting infrastructures—from existing buildings (administrative or training).
