The use of information net primary productivity (NPP) from remote ocean color sensors is increasingly common in marine sciences. resulting has been used to explain variations at different spatio-temporal scales and the presence climate phenomena, such as El Niño Southern Oscillation, global warming. Satellite sensing data were analyzed Bahía de La Paz (BLP), Mexico, determine variation NPP. In ...

We employ the complex method to obtain all meromorphic exact solutions of complex (2+1)-dimensional Boiti-Leon-Pempinelli equations (BLP system of equations). The idea introduced in this paper can be applied to other nonlinear evolution equations. Our results show that all rational and simply periodic traveling wave exact solutions of the equations (BLP) are solitary wave solutions, the complex...

Spontaneous fMRI fluctuations are organized in large-scale spatiotemporal structures, or resting-state networks (RSN). However, it is unknown how task performance affects RSN dynamics. We use MEG to measure slow (∼0.1 Hz) coherent fluctuations of band-limited power (BLP), a robust correlate of RSN, during rest and movie observation and compare them to fMRI-RSN. BLP correlation, especially in α ...

We believe that NGOs, engaged in leprosy control in metropolitan cities where there are many dermatologists in medical colleges, or in private practice, have a special responsibility in implementing leprosy work in an integrated manner. It may be worthwhile narrating the experience of over 3 decades of the Bombay Leprosy Project (BLP) as the Project has been constantly striving to practise all ...

This is an exposition of the BLP method of structural demand estimation using the random-coefficients logit model. It is forthcoming Japanese in Gendai Keizaigaku 1, mikuro-bunseki, edited by Isao Miura and Tohru Naito, Tokyo: Keiso shobo. The English version will stay posted on the web and most likely be revised later. Dan R. and Catherine M. Dalton Professor, Department of Business Economics ...

The susceptibilities of recently isolated strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to gentamicin, polymyxin B, carbenicillin, ampicillin, penicillin G, and two newer penicillins were tested with the inocula-replicating technique by using undiluted and 10(-3) dilutions of the cultures. With either inoculum, polymyxin B was the most active agent, and a comparison with previous data from this laboratory ...

Let D, called the domain, be a fixed finite set and let Γ, called the valued constraint language, be a fixed set of functions of the form f : D → Q ∪ {∞}, where different functions might have different arity m. We study the valued constraint satisfaction problem parametrised by Γ, denoted by VCSP(Γ). These are minimisation problems given by n variables and the objective function given by a sum ...

The DAO-type white dwarf LS V+4621 is the hydrogen-rich central star of the possible planetary nebula Sh 2-216. We have taken high-resolution, high-S/N ultraviolet spectra with STIS aboard the HST and FUSE in order to constrain its photospheric parameters. A detailed spectral analysis by means of state-of-the-art NLTE model-atmosphere techniques is presented which includes the determination the...

The ingestion of fatty meals is associated with a transient, low-grade systemic inflammatory response in human subjects, involving the activation of circulating monocytes and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines. However, it is not yet clear how different foodstuffs may promote inflammatory signalling. In a screen of forty filter-sterilised soluble extracts from common foodstuffs, seven ...

Linear pooling is by the far the most popular method for combining probability forecasts. However, any nontrivial weighted average of two or more distinct, calibrated probability forecasts is necessarily uncalibrated and lacks sharpness. In view of this, linear pooling requires recalibration, even in the ideal case in which the individual forecasts are calibrated. Toward this end, we propose a ...
