Prostate segmentation, and more importantly zonal segmentation (i.e., distinguishing also the peripheral and transition/central zones of the prostate), is an important step in the CAD framework. During training, segmentation allows the classifiers to focus on prostate tissue only; as for implementatio...
Subduction is the core process of plate tectonics. The mantle wedge in subduction-zone systems represents a key tectonic unit, playing a significant role in material cycling and energy exchange between Earth’s layers. This study summarizes research progresses in terms of subduction-related peridotite...
Fields recalled to us the fly-by-night nature of many of these productions. “Usually I’d see these bands live first, and, with the exception of Agent Orange, I’d always attend a garage or living room rehearsal to go over repertoire. So a band like the Circle Jerks might warm up d...

Coastal zones are dynamic, rich environments, now densely populated, and increasingly challenged by human and climate-change pressures. Effective long-term
of nucleotides transition/transversion (Ti/Tv) was between 2.0 and 2.2 for all individuals, as expected for this type of data [53]. To estimate the intensity of gene flow within the sampled area, and also to make an initial assessment of the relevance of the markers used, we first ...
” The transition between the E and Bhs horizons (i.e., the transition between the eluvial and illuvial parts of the pedon) was deep under the root cylinder and main roots (30 cm vs. 5 cm in the control profile). In total, 13 main roots were directed laterally from the root ...
The ratio of nucleotides transition/transversion (Ti/Tv) was between 2.0 and 2.2 for all individuals, as expected for this type of data [53]. To estimate the intensity of gene flow within the sampled area, and also to make an initial assessment of the relevance of the markers used, we ...
For each farm, we traced an individual transition pathway marking points of change [38,56]. Our interviews were semi-structured and focused on internal and external drivers influencing on-farm decisions [57]. Interview subjects were frequently prompted for deeper explanations, with questions of “...
The results show that forest zones have a significant zonal and meridional transition, while scrub and steppe zones have less zonal and meridional transition and their centroids hardly shift. Cool temperate moist forests will transition westward 100 km (about 1.13° E) under RCP2.6 to 220 km (...
