in the ideal case of having all possible values, such a vector completely determines the behavior of the organism, depending on presented stimuli. Asub-stateis a part of this vector of values, determining only partly the input-action relation. For the notion...
For example, a severe drought in 1997 caused the lower reach of the Yellow River to experience 226 consecutive days without any water flow, leading to the formation of a dry riverbed that extended for a distance of 687 km [21,22]. Southwestern China suffered an intense drought from autumn ...
The epic that comprises the entirety of the studio segment of this EP was written back in the band's Images & Words days, but held back from the album when they ran out of room for it. Here A Change Of Seasons finally finds a home on its own disc, and it stands now as a ...
Culture health was monitored by cell counts and microscope inspection on alternate days. Molar PIC and POC were measured with a Rock Eval analyser, which is preferable to making assumptions about carbon density of biogenic material. An aliquot of culture residue was bleached with dilute sodium ...
There was no direct recording of cosmic ray variations in those days. Indeed. Victor Hess was busy discovering them at that very time. So we have to make do with the geomagnetic activity index (calledaain the second slide) as an inverse indicator of cosmic ray influx, and with the counts...

Seasonal total rainfall has decreased significantly in both the wet and dry seasons since the 1920s (Gaborone and Lobatse) and 1980 (Ramotswa) (Fig.4a, modelR2 = 73%,p < 0.001, Table2: model 1). The number of rainy days has decreased significantly in both seasons as well, bu...
This work re-approaches the origins of “the Celts” by detailing the character of their society and the nature of social change in Europe across
Route planning requires ice information at larger scales, such as ice thickness, drift, and convergence/compression on time scales of days to months. Development of standards and regulations, which requires an understanding of long-term trends, uses climate-scale information more directly. A ...
Time (t) and lag (δ) are in days. Water temperatures follow air temperatures closely, the time lag for a shallow stream is expected to be on the order of a few hours due to the thermal inertia of the water [65]. The average relationship indicates that when the daily air temperature ...
