It’s very common to invoke the ‘CAP theorem’ when designing, or talking about designing, distributed data storage systems. The theorem, as commonly stated, gives system designers a choice between three competing guarantees: Consistency – roughly meaning that all clients of a data store get re...
Although these phenomena are examples of molecular mimicry, it would be unreasonable to suggest that they have any meaning in terms of microbial strategies. Rather the host, in responding to such an immense variety of different microbial antigens, is always in danger of responding accidentally, as...
However, many of these examples slow growth, meaning that less water is lost but this is at the expense of productivity [30]. This is not an acceptable trade-off for growers. There are examples of some potential leads for drought tolerance involved in signal transduction pathways or ...
We also acknowledge the substantial evidence that birds can discriminate between different forms of human activity, meaning that metrics of human abundance may not directly reflect birds’ risk perception54,55,56. Finally, we acknowledge that some of our data were not designed to answer questions ...

a为确定了NDWI的分类阈值,从NDWI在Level1、Level2的取值区间中,都选择NDWI取值区间0.30～0.38并截取相应特征视图进行分析。 In order to have determined the NDWI classified threshold value, from NDWI in Level1, in the Level2 value sector, all chooses the NDWI value sector 0.30~0.38 and intercepts the...
