Oceanmind Systems: AI-Driven Marine Life Intelligence for Climate Prediction and Ocean Ecosystem Stability
Abstract: Oceans regulate global climate systems, support biodiversity, and serve as critical carbon sinks, yet they remain under-monitored relative to their ecological importance. Traditional oceanographic methods rely heavily on satellite sensing, buoy networks, and periodic marine surveys, which often fail to capture real-time biological dynamics at micro-ecosystem levels. This paper introduces OceanMind Systems, an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven marine intelligence framework that integrates marine life behavior, oceanographic data, and computational modeling to …

SGOT (Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase)—Its Role (A Review Article)
Abstract: Aspartate transaminase (AST) is an important liver enzyme which catalyses reversible transfer of an alpha amino group between aspartate and glutamate. It has an important role in amino acid metabolism. AST is predominantly found in the liver, skeletal muscle, kidneys, brain and red blood cells. AST is measured as a part of diagnostic liver function test, but AST reflects pathology in organs other than liver. Elevation in AST is found …

Growth of Cu2O on TCO by SILAR method acts as an alternative buffer electrode layer towards the development of organic solar cell
Abstract: In many types of optoelectronic devices, layer of PEDOT: PSS is sandwiched between the indium-tin oxide (ITO) electrode and the active layer. Buffer PEDOT: PSS provides a well- defined work function which is higher than that of ITO (4.2eV), it smooths the ITO surface and so avoids shorts, and it also protects the active layer from ingress of indium or oxygen, leading to longer device lifetimes. The role of PEDOT: …
