Although divided differences of a function are of basic importance in the theory of numerical analysis, they are not nearly as useful as ordinary differences in application. In the first place, they are much harder to generate ; not only because they involve unequal intervals of the argument, but because divisions are involved, often by small numbers. Furthermore, they are harder to interpret t...

This study evaluated the relationship between the indices known as the Reef Health Index (RHI) and two-dimensional Coral Health Index (2D-CHI) and different representative metrics of biological, ecological and functional diversity of fish and corals in 101 reef sites located across seven zones in the western Caribbean Sea. Species richness and average taxonomic distinctness were used to asses b...

in this study, species richness, evenness and vegetation biodiversity were investigated in stabilized and non-stabilized cut edge areas of chachkam district forest roads in sari forest of iran. 18 micro plots 1×1m (36 micro plots) were sampled to carry out this research on two cut edge areas. number of trees, shrubs and herbaceous were recorded in each micro-plot. significant difference was inv...

Background and Objective: Leishmaniasis is among the seven more significant tropical diseases, and it is a major global health issue with a wide range of clinical symptoms and potentially lethal consequences. Resveratrol and its derivatives have been shown to have anti-Leishmanial properties. This study aimed to use a meta-analysis of relevant papers to determine the leishmanicidal impact of re...

The 2020 COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting national international movement restrictions provide a unique opportunity to investigate consequences of changing anthropogenic noise regimes on animal communities soundscapes. Here, I used this lockdown period as natural experiment changes soundscape intensity, structure, dynamics during restricted human activity (lockdown) in suburban Nottingham, U...
