Oases in the Desert: Three New Proposals
نویسنده
چکیده
Two new nontrivial U(1) gauge symmetries are proposed, one based on the particle content of the standard model and the other on that of its supersymmetric generalization. Each is an unexpected first example of its kind. A third new proposal is the successful derivation of a realistic Majorana neutrino mass matrix, based on the underlying symmetry A4 and its radiative corrections.

Diversity of Algerian oases date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L., Arecaceae): Heterozygote excess and cryptic structure suggest farmer management had a major impact on diversity
Date palm (Phoenix dactyliferaL.) is the mainstay of oasis agriculture in the Saharan region. It is cultivated in a large part of the Mediterranean coastal area of the Sahara and in most isolated oases in the Algerian desert. We sampled 10 oases in Algeria to understand the structure of date palm diversity from the coastal area to a very isolated desert location. We used 18 microsatellite marke...
متن کاملRevealing an Endemic Herbivore-Palm Interaction in Remote Desert Oases of Baja California
In the Central Desert of northern Baja California, blue fan palm populations (Brahea armata) are found as isolated oases on mountaintops and along canyons with ephemeral flow conditions. Here, the effect of the interaction between the larva of an endemic moth, Litoprosopus bajaensis, and this endemic blue fan palm was documented for the first time. We registered the phenology of palms by counti...
متن کاملMonitoring Oasis Degradation Using Coarse Resolution Remotely Sensed Vegetation Index Data
Oases in the Sahara Desert are undergoing rapid physical and socio-economic changes. High spatial resolution remote sensing data from the Landsat Thematic Mapper have been used in an attempt to monitor these changes, but because of their sparse temporal frequency, coupled with the significant intra-annual vegetation dynamics displayed by oases, such data are a poor sample from which to estimate...

Abstract The main objective in this article is to study the issue of development and lasting competitiveness and to study its dimensions and also to acquainted with its related components and how to achieve it. In fact, to get acquainted with competitiveness is as a development that would prevent imposition of cultural, Economical, and social and/or environment damages on future generations. ...
متن کاملMesoscale Eddies Are Oases for Higher Trophic Marine Life
Mesoscale eddies stimulate biological production in the ocean, but knowledge of energy transfers to higher trophic levels within eddies remains fragmented and not quantified. Increasing the knowledge base is constrained by the inability of traditional sampling methods to adequately sample biological processes at the spatio-temporal scales at which they occur. By combining satellite and acoustic...
