Energy is a main factor in developing nations. Energy is almost a must for surviving with dignity. Palestine situation is different from other countries which can import their energy needs from outside. Palestinians are facing a critical shortage in energy due to Israeli Occupation. They must depend ...
In this study, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was applied to simulate pollutant load of the TP and TN of Dongting Lake basin, considering point source and non-point source pollution. Comparison verification was made between water quality monitoring data from Shahekou, Hanshoupotou and ...
National administration of surveying, mapping and geoinformatics started to launch the project of national fundamental geographic information database dynamic update in 2012. Among them, the 1:50000 database was updated annually. Furthermore the 1∶250000 database was downsized and linkage-updated on ...
Semantics plays an important role on spatial scenes building and similarity contrast. Based on the description logic knowledge base (ontology) and multi-layer neural network, this paper simulates the procedure of human perception, measures the semantic similarity between spatial entities. In the Knowledge ...
Integrating high performance computing (HPC) into a Tanzanian computer engineering curriculum poses a number of challenges. Those challenges arise partly from the students' educational background, and the country's educational history. In this research, the challenges of integrating HPC into Dar es ...
Currently, wireless sensor networks with its unique performance also have a wide range of applications in agriculture, industry, aquaculture etc., especially in the production of these industries, wireless sensor networks play an important role. The paper presents the applications of wireless sensor ...
Abstract The Directive 2013/30/EU on Safety of offshore Oil&Gas operations is now being implemented into the National legislations of EU member states. The Directive introduces in the legislation concepts and practices similar to those already adopted for onshore major hazard plants in EU Member States ...
Abstract The oil and gas industry recognizes the importance of assessing the oil spill risks associated with its operations and implement measures to manage their risks. Consequences of oil spills are highly dependent of the nature of the release, the amount spilled, the duration, where it occurred ...
The anticipated effects of CO2-induced ocean acidification on marine calcifiers are generally negative, and include dissolution of calcified elements and reduced calcification rates. Such negative effects are not typical of crustaceans for which comparatively little ocean acidification research has ...
Existing research on the role of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) in bivalve reproduction is inadequate, even though a few bivalve GnRH orthologs have been cloned. The objective of this paper was to elucidate the in vivo effect of GnRH administration in Yesso scallop reproduction. We performed ...
Retrovirus (RV) is efficient for gene transfer and integration in dividing cells of diverse organisms. RV provides a powerful tool for insertional mutagenesis (IM) to identify and functionally analyze genes essential for normal and pathological processes. Here we report RV-mediated gene transfer and ...
A common signature of marine invasions worldwide is a significant loss of parasites (= parasite escape) in non-native host populations, which may confer a release from some of the harmful effects of parasitism (e.g., castration, energy extraction, immune activation, behavioral manipulation) and possibly ...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the combined effects of thermal acclimation and n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (n-3 HUFA) content of the food source on the aerobic capacities of fish in a thermal changing environment. The model used was the golden grey mullet Liza aurata, a species of ...
Class 1 integrons are mobile gene elements (MGEs) containing qacEΔ1 that are resistant to quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) disinfectants. This study compared the abundances of class 1 integrons and antiseptic resistance genes in municipal (M) and swine slaughterhouse (S) wastewater treatment plants ...
Species and populations with parallel evolution of specific traits can help illuminate how predictable adaptations and divergence are at the molecular and developmental level. Following the last glacial period, dwarfism and specialized bottom feeding morphology evolved rapidly in several landlocked ...
Myxosporean taxonomy which is traditionally based on the morphology of the myxospore stage, is in a state of flux given new insights provided by the expanding dataset of DNA sequences. To date, more than 40 species of Thelohanellus from India have been described according to morphometric characteristics. ...
Thermal sensitivity of the cardiorespiratory oxygen supply capacity has been proposed as the cardinal link underlying the upper boundary of the temperature niche in aquatic ectotherms. Here we examined the evidence for this link in two eurythermal decapods, the Giant tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) and ...
Antibiotic-resistant mechanisms are associated with fitness costs. However, why antibiotic-resistant bacteria usually show increasing adaptation to hosts is largely unknown, especially from the host’s perspective. The present study reveals the host’s varied response to balofloxacin-resistant Escherichia ...
As a critical reference for the management of fisheries production, fishing benefits calculation, and fishery resources survey, the statistics of vessel voyage can be readily available with the assistant of vessel monitoring system using Beidou satellite navigation. In this paper, a novel methodology ...
Abstract Directive 2008/56/CE on Marine Strategy provides a framework for Community actions in order to achieve the objectives of good environmental status by 2020. The Directive was transposed in Italy by Legislative Decree. n. 0 190/2010 which lists future actions to be implemented to achieve the ...
