Geodesic Domes

A geodesic dome is a type of structure shaped like a piece of a sphere or a ball. This structure is comprised of a complex network of triangles that form a roughly spherical surface. The more complex the network of triangles, the more closely the dome approximates the shape of a true sphere [sic].

Shrimp Production in the CNMI
The CNMI Aquaculture Industry has begun steering its attention towards Shrimp production for numerous reasons. Some reasons include, but are not limited to, the increasing demand for shrimp and the improvements in farming techniques, allowing farmers to grow marine shrimp in low salinity water or city water. In addition, the grow-out cycle of shrimp is also shorter than growing fish.
