This work describes how we used AnCora-Nom, a Spanish nominalization lexicon, to extend NomLex-PT, a lexical resource for Portuguese, originally based on the English NomLex lexicon and fully integrated to OpenWordNet-PT, our freely available Portuguese WordNet. The complete Spanish lexicon, which contains 1,655 entries, was translated to Portuguese and then compared to our previous data. Furthe...

The complex nature of natural organic matter (NOM), and the impact of this matter on drinking water quality have necessitated the characterization studies of NOM. A fluorescence technique for the characterization of NOM in Malaysian river water is reported. Water samples from several river sampling sites were collected and concentrated using a low-pressure reverse osmosis (LPROM). Solid phase e...

Over the past twenty years there has been a shift towards non-operative management (NOM) for haemodynamically stable patients with abdominal trauma. Embolisation can achieve haemostasis and salvage organs without the morbidity of surgery, and the development and refinement of embolisation techniques has widened the indications for NOM in the management of solid organ injury. Advances in compute...

The risk of overwhelming postsplenectomy infection (OPSI) prompted the evolution toward preservation of the injured spleen. Nonoperative management (NOM) of blunt injury to the spleen in adults has become the standard of care in hemodynamically stable patients. This modality of treatment began in the 1970's in paediatric patients. It is highly successful with overall failures rates from 2% to 3...

Fe barrier is a promising technology for the treatment of copper and zinc contaminated roof runoff. However, recent findings showed that Fe processes fell at some operational conditions, in which natural organic matter (NOM) is among the crucial factors contributing to a significant decrease in the treatment efficiency. The present work assesses the mechanisms involved in the interaction of NOM...

RÉSUMÉ Dans cet article, nous extrayons des adjectifs relationnels français et nous les alignons automatiquement avec les noms dont ils sont dérivés en utilisant un corpus monolingue. Les alignements adjectif-nom seront ensuite utilisés dans la traduction compositionelle des termes complexes de la forme [N AdjR] à partir d’un corpus comparable français-anglais. Un nouveau terme [N N�] (ex. canc...
