Despite availability of multiple non-overlapping channels in the 2.4GHz and the 5GHz spectrum, most IEEE 802.11-based multi-hop ad hoc networks operate in a single channel. This substantially reduces the bandwidth available to each node due to interference between successive hops on the same path as well as between neighboring paths. Figure 1 depicts the severity of such interference. As a resu...

Floating macrophytes, including water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), are dominant invasive organisms in tropical aquatic systems, and they may play an important role in modifying the gas exchange between water and the atmosphere. However, these systems are underrepresented in global datasets of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This study investigated the carbon (C) turnover and GHG emissions f...
