Abstract. We developed a high-resolution MIKE SHE/MIKE 11 model of 231.3 ha headwater catchment in the granitic uplands French Massif Central to estimate contribution groundwater upwelling water balance Dauges mire, an acidic valley mire international importance for nature conservation. estimated that from underlying weathered granite formations – mostly approximately 55 m deep fissured zone pr...

Marine group II Euryarchaeota (MG-II) are among the most abundant microbes in oceanic surface waters [1-4]. So far, however, representatives of MG-II have not been cultivated, and no viruses infecting these organisms have been described. Here, we present complete genomes for three distinct groups of viruses assembled from metagenomic sequence datasets highly enriched for MG-II. These novel viru...

BACKGROUND Bendectin was the primary pharmaceutical treatment of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP) in the United States until the early 1980s. Its manufacture was then discontinued after public allegations that it was causing birth defects. Subsequently, meta-analyses of the many epidemiological cohort and case/control studies used to examine that hypothesis have demonstrated the absence o...

in this paper we introduce a new definition of the first non-abelian cohomology of topological groups.  we relate the cohomology of a normal subgroup $n$ of a topological group $g$ and the quotient $g/n$ to the cohomology of $g$. we get the inflation-restriction exact sequence. also, we obtain a seven-term exact cohomology sequence up to dimension 2. we give an interpretation of the first non-a...

today, determination of the ecological species groups for current and future situation of forest and its relationship with environmental factors is necessary for forest management. for this purpose, 50 plots were established in altitude range of 2091- 2811 meters above sea level and 600 hectare in protected area of western dena. four ecological groups was identified using twinspan analysis that...

In order to study the effects of climate changes on soil organisms and processes, a transplantation experiment was undertaken. Eighteen soil blocks from an ombrotrophic mire (Stordalenmyren) at Abisko in northern Sweden were transplanted to nine sites in Sweden, from UmeaÊ in the north to Alnarp in the south. The study was part of the EC-project DEGREE (Diversity effects in grassland ecosystems...

This talk discusses the main results of Tate’s paper "p-Divisible Groups" [6]. From the point of view of p-adic Hodge theory, this is a foundational paper and within this setting, much of the technical work being done becomes extremely important. From our perspective, having just learned what p-divisible groups are three weeks ago, however, the significance of the results could easily be drowne...

0.1. For any finite group Γ, a “nonabelian Fourier transform matrix” was introduced in [L1]. This is a square matrix whose rows and columns are indexed by pairs formed by an element of Γ and an irreducible representation of the centralizer of that element (both defined up to conjugation). As shown in [L2], this matrix, which is unitary with square 1, enters (for suitable Γ) in the character for...

A country-wide inventory of important wetlands was undertaken in Lithuania in 1996–1999, covering more than 80 wetlands with a total area of about 130 000 ha. Intensive field surveys (land-based, aerialand boat-surveys) were performed at all sites. The Ramsar Information Sheet and data recording methodology was used as the basis for the structure of the inventory. Results of the field surveys r...

Monitoring high latitude wetlands is required to understand feedbacks between terrestrial carbon pools and climate change. Hydrological variability is a key factor driving biogeochemical processes in these ecosystems and effective assessment tools are critical for accurate characterization of surface hydrology, soil moisture, and water table fluctuations. Operational satellite platforms provide...
