Ecological features of mangroves as indicators of seawater intrusion by Suyadi , M. Basyuni, R. Amukti, C. Damayanti, D. Stokes, A. Mubaraq, Y.I. Rahmila

“…This study aimed to determine mangroves ecological features that can serve as indicators of seawater intrusion.METHODS: A geographic information system and geo-electric method were used, and remote sensing, vegetation survey, sample collection, and interview survey were performed.FINDINGS: Seawater intrusion is the major problem affecting groundwater quality in coastal areas, especially mall islands. A structural equation model revealed that mean mangrove patch thickness, mean mangrove patch density, soil resistivity, soil porosity, and tree density explained 80–95 percent of the variation in seawater intrusion during wet and dry seasons in the entire study area. …”

Integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis of the anthocyanin regulatory networks in Lagerstroemia indica petals by Xian Xie, Tiantian Cheng, Yu Yan, Cuicui Zhu, Ming Zhang, Zhongkui Sun, Ting Wang

“…However, the mechanism underlying the regulation of L. indica petal color variation remains unclear. We used LC-MS/MS and RNA-seq to uncover the genetic basis of flower colour variation with the help of the metabolome and transcriptome of three varieties with different colored petal, ‘Huahai’, ‘Zhuimeng’, ‘Zixian’. …”

The impact of dynamic capabilities on shipping port performance: a serial-mediation of sustainability practices based on dynamic capability view by L. Kishore, Yogesh P. Pai, E. Geetha, Venisha Jenifer Dmello, Shilpa Badrinath Bidi

“…Secondly, it investigates the serial-mediating role of those SPs adopted in the port and the CA of the port on the relationship between DCs and performance underpinned by the theoretical foundations of the DCV theory that have received less attention and have not yet been empirically tested. The multi-variate framework was empirically tested with 272 port employees as samples working in various ports using the partial least square approach-based structural equation model technique using SmartPLS 4. …”
