AUTOMATIC WATERING OF EXPERIMENTAL PLOTS

Watering CanMEDS flowers

We expand on the discourse related to nature surrounding Canadian medical training and the CanMEDS flower. We advance the notion that a major contributor to burnout is the increasing complexity and segregation of not only the medical profession, but society as a whole, leading to choice overload and an overemphasis on complex, data driven, rational decision making. We then propose that the key ...

Use of a metal detector to relocate semipermanent experimental plots.

A metal detector was used to relocate steel pins marking the boundaries of semipermanent plots in cranberry bogs and turfgrass where continuous use precluded the placement of permanent wooden stakes.

automatic verification of authentication protocols using genetic programming

implicit and unobserved errors and vulnerabilities issues usually arise in cryptographic protocols and especially in authentication protocols. this may enable an attacker to make serious damages to the desired system, such as having the access to or changing secret documents, interfering in bank transactions, having access to users’ accounts, or may be having the control all over the syste...

Initial species pattern affects invasion resistance in experimental grassland plots

Methods: Experimental plots (4 m) were planted with seedlings of four grassland species arranged into increasingly larger groups (patches) of conspecific individuals while controlling plot-scale richness and evenness. Available light (photosynthetically active radiation; PAR) at the soil surface was measured each month for three growing seasons after planting. Species’ relative abundances were ...
