Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the characteristics of the Schizothorax niger fish population, comparing samples from Dal Lake and the Jhelum River, with analyses of physical, biological, and biochemical traits.
- Significant temperature and hardness differences were noted between the two locations, with Dal Lake displaying a steeper growth rate in fish length and weight, alongside variations in gender-specific biological indices like gonado-somatic and hepato-somatic indexes.
- Hematological and biochemical analyses revealed notable differences in parameters such as haematocrit, glucose, and total protein levels, providing insights that could aid in developing conservation and management strategies for this species.
Researchers are increasingly focusing on renewable energy due to its high reliability, energy independence, efficiency, and environmental benefits. This paper introduces a novel multi-objective framework for the short-term scheduling of microgrids (MGs), which addresses the conflicting objectives of minimizing operating expenses and reducing pollution emissions. The core contribution is the development of the Chaotic Self-Adaptive Sine Cosine Algorithm (CSASCA).

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) has been found to improve gastrointestinal (GI) motility following abdominal surgery. However, its effectiveness in this context is not well-established.
