Realizing that the pH scale was still new and unfamiliar to his audience, he emphasized that “an increase in these negative exponential values means decrease in acidity, or, when the value of 7.07 is passed, increase in alkalinity.” Hopkins wrote Sørensen’s symbol as PH and also called...
Rotenone has also been used for small-scale sampling of fish to assess biodiversity and biomass. (c) Biological Properties Mode of insecticidal action Rotenone is a prototype inhibitor of the respiratory chain of mitochondria and acts by inhibiting electron transport at reduced nicotinamide adenine ...
(often 32 lines/inch or smaller), machining costs are significant, and the cost of producing large screens (greater than 10×14 inches) makes large-scale reproduction and distribution prohibitively expensive. For flexible lenticular products, the situation is slightly better, but the cost of ...
(2015) and applied an offset of 0.19 to the pH total scale to compensate the MacInnes assumption used in PHREEQC, so the culture pHNBS measurements were first converted to the total scale using CO2SYS from which the offset was then applied. The ionic composition of seawater was scaled with...
One could argue that Mesoamerican human sacrifice is more correct, as even societies like the Maya appear to have performed it, even if apparently on a lesser scale. The scale of Aztec human sacrifice—from only 150 sacrificial victims to 250,000 per year—is a debate; see Matthew Restall’...
Person for scale; b UA1–7 at Punta Lena Bull Volcanol (2008) 70:1221–1236 1227 maximum thickness is 160 cm. Individual beds consist of alternating thin, faintly laminated, ash layers and accretion- ary and armoured lapilli-rich, 2–15 cm-thick layers (Fig. 7b). The ash is composed...
These spectral changes can be exploited to infer the stoichiometry, strength and the time scale of a specific protein–lipid interaction [179]. While EPR has been widely used to study the bilayer properties influenced by GSLs [180,181] few studies have directly approached GSL...
(E) In-situ picture of upstream sampling point showing mm-scale tufa layering; (F) Picture of downstream tufa sample showing tufa layer accumulation around a small stick. 2.1.1. Howden Burn The Howden Burn drains the interior of the largest heap at Consett, emerging from a culverted ...
Multiple real-world and synthetic examples illustrate that Evidence Networks are explicitly independent of dimensionality of the parameter space and scale mildly with the complexity of the posterior probability density function. This simple yet powerful approach has broad implications for model inference ...
surplus water from the oil refinery is used by a local fish farm. Over the years, this collaboration has grown into a large-scale, highly efficient system, where waste from one process becomes a resource for another. Such symbiosis has significantly reduced waste, emissions, and water consumptio...
