Phytolith-occluded carbon (PhytOC) is a stable carbon (C) fraction that has effects on long-term global C balance. Here, we report the phytolith and PhytOC accumulation in moso bamboo leaves developed on four types of parent materials. The results show that PhytOC content of moso bamboo varies with parent material in the order of granodiorite (2.0 g kg(-1)) > granite (1.6 g kg(-1)) > basalt (1....

OBJECTIVE To identify familial characteristics that may have influenced the effectiveness of a parent-based intervention to reduce unsafe sun practices in children aged 9 to 12 years (fourth through sixth grades). DESIGN Randomized control design with a 30-day follow-up. SETTING Participants were recruited from 2 distinct regions in the United States: southern Idaho and eastern Tennessee. ...

TCNQ is a fascinating molecule with potential for optical, electronic and magnetic materials. Our work studies the low energy lattice modes of parent compound to further understand vibrational properties including their temperature dependence.

in a semiarid region of central iran, effects of parent materials, physiography and landscape position, land use, andmanagement practices on association of organic carbon with secondary (aggregates) particles and aggregate stability canhave important consequences in terms of carbon sequestration and budgeting, deciding on the proper land use strategy andsuitable soil conservation practices. it ...

In this study, poultry manure compost and organic fertilizer were added to soils derived from basalt, granite, and river alluvial deposits for use as soil parent materials. Following incubation periods of 30 or 60 days at 25 °C, the physical and chemical properties and adsorption characteristics of the soils were studied. The results indicated that the application of poultry manure compost or o...

aim and background: the aim of current study was to investigate the factor structure, reliability, and validity of parenting stress index-short form (psi-sf) among tehran city's mothers with 7-12 year-old children. methods and materials: after translation, back translation and adaptation of instrument, due to normalization this instrument by applied survey design, 468 mothers from those which s...

conclusions the findings suggest that the development of preventive programs will contribute to increases in the child-mother closeness relationship and will help to prevent the onset of substance use in children. background considering the fundamental role that parents play in a family dynamic, it is important to explore the parent-child relationship and examine what protective behaviors or ri...

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between parental occupational balance and child-parent its effect on relationship. 
 Materials Methods: The included parents of children aged 4-6. In this cross-sectional study, all participants completed Occupational Balance Questionnaire (OBQ), Child‒Parent Relationship Scale (CPRS), sociodemographic data survey. Results: 216 (81.9...

The objective of this study was to investigate the physical, chemical, and mineralogical composition of lateritic soils in order to use these soils as potential commercial products for industrial application in the future. Five lateritic soils derived from various parent materials in Taiwan, including andesite, diluvium, shale stone, basalt, and Pleistocene deposit, were collected from the Bt1 ...
