Are weeds a concern when dredged ditch sediments are applied to agricultural fields?

When are Vector Fields Hamiltonian?

There is reason to believe that at small scales and low temperatures, quantum mechanical effects will play a role in dissipative systems which arise in solid state physics. References to and a brief discussion of various approaches to the quantisation of the damped harmonic oscillator, can be found in [1]. Although there exist successful and physically intuitive ways to deal with the quantisati...

Are Those with Darker Personality Traits more Willing to Corrupt When They Feel Anxious?

This unprecedented research endeavors to investigate the relationship between dark personality traits (i.e., narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy) and corruption intention through the mediation of anxiety.  Based on the resource conservation theory, it is hypothesized that those higher in dark personality traits are more inclined to corrupt when they feel anxious. Having collected data...

Are Children Less Susceptible To COVID-19? A Case Series

Background The novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2 [2019-nCoV]) is the origin of several cases of pneumonia in Wuhan, Hubei province, China. According to the reported data, children are less common to be infected by COVID-19. Besides, their mortality rate is almost zero. Case Presentation In this article, we investigated six childr...

Nitrogen fate in drainage ditches of the coastal plain after dredging.

Drainage ditches are a key conduit of nitrogen (N) from agricultural fields to surface water. The effect of ditch dredging, a common practice to improve drainage, on the fate of N in ditch effluent is not well understood. This study evaluated the effect of dredging on N transport in drainage ditches of the Delmarva Peninsula. Sediments from two ditches draining a single field were collected (0-...
