Aquaculture is expanding along with the increase in demand for animal protein and hence significantly contributes to food security and socioeconomic livelihood.
True mangrove flora and their associates in the lower Gangetic region are noted for their wide spectrum of ecosystem services in which carbon storage and sequestration by the forest is one of the most important components.
This book charts the multidimensional course of what has come to be known as the "e;Vegetal Turn"e; in environmental humanities - a wave of theoretical and practical interest in the complexities and peculiarities of plant life and plant-human relations.

This book focuses on the following three topics in the theory of boundary value problems of nonlinear second order elliptic partial differential equations and systems: (i) eigenvalue problem, (ii) upper and lower solutions method, (iii) topological degree method, and deals with the existence of solutions, more specifically non-constant positive solutions, as well as the uniqueness, stability and asymptotic behavior of such solutions.
