    Extractions: My current research focuses on the energy and water balance in ectoparasitic arthropods, specifically ticks and fleas. I am primarily concerned with the question of how the off-host developmental stages of ectoparasitic arthropods such as ticks and fleas manage to survive for long periods (ranging from weeks to several years) between blood meals. Ticks as a group survive longer than any other arthropod without food or drinking water. The key issue to off-host survival is effective and stringent control of energy and water reserves accomplished through slow metabolism, water conservation and active water uptake. My research seeks to answer questions about metabolic mechanisms that facilitate energy conservation in ticks.

Purpose: To promote community based regeneration and sustainable Management of mangroves in selected communities along the Gulfs of Kachchh and Khambhat, Gujarat Impact: 1. Increased acceptance and support for community based approaches for natural resource management by communities and by the government. Enchanced capacity of ICEF partner organizations to promote and deliver NRM in a pro-poor and pro-women manner. Introduction for Mangroves: The mangroves are important in terms of ecological, environmental, and livelihood securities they provide. With respect to the ecological security , they are known as sites of high biological productivity and as natural nursery grounds for a variety of marine organisms. In terms of environmental security, mangroves reduce erosion by trapping the sediments and stabilizing the coastal zone and thus protect the coast from storm surges, In terms of livelihood security, they provide edible (fish) and other utilizable resources (e.g. firewood) to the population living in the vicinity of mangroves.

    Extractions: Travel Mongolia is one of the most extraordinary travel destinations in the world today. It presents one the greatest unspoiled continous tracts of wilderness on the planet, with pristine rivers, lakes and thriving wildlife. Many spectacular parts of Mongolia have been designated strictly protected areas and allow the traveller to enjoy wildlife on a scale unlike any other in all of Asia. Almost have the population lives a nomadic lifestyle moving their nomadic homes called Gers as they travel with their livestock. Almost every Mongolian has a relative who is a nomad and living with nature in the great outdoors Mongolia's way of life. Mongolia is also one of the last horse based cultures and Mongolians are natural cowboys and cowgirls with children learning to ride as young three years old. Mongolian are tough but soft spoken and very hospitable and with an open door policy for travellers passing through. The large cities and the capitol Ulan Baatar offer up to date emenities like internet cafes, western style supermarkets, discos, museums, and foreign cuisine. Mongolia ­ Land of Genghis Khan: Nature

    Extractions: Several researchers presented work at this year's Annual Main Meeting in Glasgow highlighting how some animals make unusual use of their senses to adapt very effectively to their environment. The Eyes Have It! How Box Jellyfish Avoid Banging Into Things... Researchers at Lund University, Sweden, are using box jellyfish (Cubomedusae) as a model system to understand how visual information is processed1 and to understand how the eye has evolved. Box jellyfish are much more active swimmers than other jellyfish - they exhibit strong directional swimming, are able to perform rapid 180 degree turns, and can deftly move in between objects2. So how do they manage to manoeuvre the obstacle course that is in the sea bed? Given that they possess an impressive 24 eyes one would think they would be well equipped for this challenge! Scientists found that one particular sub-set of eyes performs this job. Box jellyfish have four morphologically different types of eye. Two of these eye types, called the upper and lower lens eyes, are camera type eyes with spherical fish-like lenses. Scientists measured the role of these camera eyes in obstacle avoidance in two species of box jellyfish - Tripedalia cystophora and Chiropsella bronzie. T. cystophora displayed stronger obstacle avoidance than C. bronzie which correlates well with the differences in their habitats: T. cystophora originates in th Caribbean and lives in between mangrove roots, thus their habitat is filled with relatively small vertical obstacles. C. bronzie hails from northern Australia and their habitat holds, larger obstacles, such as large stones and fallen over trees.
