چکیده
Eighteen tree and shrub species were screened for emissions of isoprene and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at three locations at Castelporziano (Italy) using a bag-enclosure sampling method followed by GC analysis. Thirty emitted compounds were identified. Temperature sensitivity of emissions of monoterpenes varied between species. Strong temperature dependencies were found for isoprene emissions. For monoterpene-emitting plant species with greatest ground cover in the dunes and macchia habitats, a-pinene, /3-pinene and sabinene appeared to be the most frequently and abundantly emitted compounds. Isoprene was the major emission from the shrub species screened in the forest. Emissions from four dominant plant species were scaled up to estimate total fluxes from the dunes and macchia over a daytime period. Species with greatest biomass but low emission rates made a substantial contribution to total emissions.

Well-Ordering, Proofs for Martin-Löf Type Theory
We present well-ordering proofs for Martin-Löf’s type theory with W-type and one universe. These proofs, together with an embedding of the type theory in a set theoretical system as carried out in [Set93] show that the proof theoretical strength of the type theory is precisely ψΩ1ΩI+ω, which is slightly more than the strength of Feferman’s theory T0, classical set theory KPI and the subsystem o...
متن کاملA Permanent Formula with Many Zero-Valued Terms
Applying nite-diierences to a generating function produces formulas for the permanent of a matrix. We present a setting of the nite-diierence parameters for which the permanent formula has many zero-valued terms when applied to 0-1 matrices. We outline a method to reduce computation by eliminating sets of zero-valued terms and show that the method signiicantly increases the computation speed.

-A pharmacophore derived from the structure of the dithiolane derivative of haloperidol bound in the active site of the HIV-1 protease (HIV-1 PR) has been used to search a three-dimensional database for new inhibitory frameworks. This search identified an FMOC-protected N-tosyl arginine as a lead candidate. A derivative in which the arginine carboxyl has been converted to an amide has been crys...
متن کاملThe spatial relationship between scanning saccades and express saccades
When monkeys interrupt their saccadic scanning of a visual scene to look at a suddenly appearing target, saccades to the target are made after an "express" latency or after a longer "regular" latency. The purpose of this study was to analyze the spatial patterns of scanning, express, and regular saccades. Scanning patterns were spatially biased. Express saccade patterns were biased, too, and we...
متن کاملConvergence rates for decentralized consistent location parameter estimation in the presence of Gaussian outliers
We consider a distributed system where sensors make location parameter estimates using their observations. A central processor collects the local estimates and declares a nal estimate based on them. We present a simple study of the convergence properties of three structures where empirical mean and M-estimates are used in various combinations. It is shown that when occasional outliers exist, de...
