We characterized the spatial distribution of drug-susceptible (DS) and multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) cases in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, a major metropolis in southeastern Asia, and explored demographic and socioeconomic factors associated with local TB burden. Hot spots of DS and MDR TB incidence were observed in the central parts of Ho Chi Minh City, and substantial heterogeneity was observed across wards. Positive spatial autocorrelation was observed for both DS TB and MDR TB.

- In New Caledonia, shrimp farming occurs on salt flats rather than cleared mangroves, affecting local carbon emissions.
- The study assessed CO emissions from a semi-intensive shrimp pond during active and inactive farming periods, finding emissions at 11.1 mmol CO m d during activity.
- Farm practices altered the hydrodynamics of nearby creeks, influencing upstream and downstream CO emissions, ultimately highlighting that optimized shrimp farming can mitigate carbon emissions.
