Seasonal change in leaf area index (LAI) is highly important in remote sensing of land surface phenology because LAI is a main driving factor of forest reflectance. We present a time series of in situ measurements of boreal forest LAI expanding throughout the growing period from budburst to senescence. We measured the LAI of 20 stands at approximately two-week intervals between mid-May and mid-...

Reactions of the dianion [Te((t)BuN)P(μ-N(t)Bu)2P(N(t)Bu)Te](2-) with I2 or [Cp*RhCl2]2 unexpectedly produced complexes of the novel spirocyclic Te5 dianion [{(t)BuN(Te)P(μ-N(t)Bu)2P(Te)N(t)Bu}2μ-Te](2-), which is N,N'-coordinated to two Na(+) ions in the disodium derivative and adopts a Te,Te',Te''-bonding mode in the Cp*Rh complex.

Results: Ferritin (acute TE; 17.0 ± 12.8, chronic TE; 19.6 ± 15.2, control; 35.5 ± 31.8, P < 0.001) and hemoglobin (acute TE; 12.7 ± 1.7, chronic TE; 13.3 ± 1.0, control; 14.2 ± 1.2, P < 0.0001) levels were signifi cantly lower in the TE group than in the control group. However, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels were signifi cantly higher in the TE group than in the control group (acute TE; 18.5 ± 9....

Multi-Point to Multi-Point Traffic Engineering (MP2MP-TE) leads to an important scalability in Multi Protocol Label Switching-Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE) networks. This paper emphasizes on the support of Fast-reroute (FRR) in MPLS-TE networks by using MP2MP bypass TE-tunnels. Hence, one MP2MP bypass TE-tunnel can be used to protect several primary TE-tunnels. During failure, the primary TE-tu...

BACKGROUND Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is a chronic, recurrent auto-inflammatory disease characterised by self-terminating attacks of fever and sterile polyserositis. The main cause of death in auto-inflammatory diseases is cardiovascular events. Additionally, auto-inflammatory diseases have potential effects on the myocardial repolarisation parameters, including the T-wave peak-to-end (...

We have studied the nucleation and growth of Se-Te nanowires (NWs), with different morphologies, grown by a chemical solution process. Through systematic characterization of the Se-Te NW morphology as a function of the Te nanocrystallines (NCs) precursor, the relative ratio between Se and Te, and the growth time, a number of significant insights into Se-Te NW growth by chemical solution process...
