This paper reports preliminary results of a Limited area model Ensemble Prediction System (LEPS), based on RAMS, for eight case studies of moderate-intense precipitation over Calabria, the southernmost tip of the Italian peninsula. LEPS aims to transfer the benefits of a probabilistic forecast from global to regional scales in countries where local orographic forcing is a key factor to force co...

The objective of this study was to determine size of testes, sexual behaviour, semen quality and testosterone concentration on 40 Ossimi rams in relation to scrotal circumference and age. Rams were divided into two groups similar in age and body weight. Group A with age of 1-1.5 years old and group B with 2-2.5 years old. Each group was divided into subgroups according to the scrotal circumfere...

Infectious epididymitis is considered a major cause of economic losses for the sheep industry worldwide. This study aimed to investigate clinical and pathological changes associated with experimental infections with A. seminis and H. somni in rams. Twenty rams of age 18 to 24 months were infected by intraepididymal inoculation of A. seminis (n = 10) and H. somni (n = 10). Rams were weekly exami...

This paper describes low-voltage random-access memory (RAM) cells and peripheral circuits for standalone and embedded RAMs, focusing on stable operation and reduced subthreshold current in standby and active modes. First, technology trends in low-voltage dynamic RAMs (DRAMs) and static RAMs (SRAMs) are reviewed and the challenges of lowvoltage RAMs in terms of cell signal charge are clarified, ...

the reproductive activity is influenced by environmental conditions in most animal species. the aim of the present study was to determine the seasonal changes of seminiferous tubules structure and spermatogenic activity in khouzestan arabian rams. for this propose 30 adult rams were reared under closed grazing conditions. four rams were randomly selected in each season and their live weight, te...

Given two strings, text t of length n, and pattern p = p1 : : : pk of length k, and given a natural number w, the subsequence matching problem consists in nding the number of size w windows of text t which contain pattern p as a subsequence, i.e. the letters p1 ; : : : ; pk occur in the window, in the same order as in p, but not necessarily consecutively (they may be interleaved with other lett...

Serum levels of T3, T4, and TSH hormones, some elements, and glucose with regard to their involvement for growth retardation in yearling rams were investigated. A total of 70 yearling rams of the Akkaraman breed, 50 of which were classified with a retarded growth, and the remaining 20 were classified as normal, were included in the study. Serum total T3, total T4, and TSH were measured using ch...

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the ejaculation rate (serving capacity) of sexually experienced rams could be estimated by selected measures of sexual libido when rams were exposed to estrous ewes under conditions that prevented copulations. Twenty-four crossbred rams selected for either high or low rates of copulation were exposed to two restrained estrous ewes under three t...

Sera from rams infected with and excreting Brucella ovis in the semen (shedders), as well as from animals which had recovered from previous experimental challenge with B. ovis, were analyzed for their serological reactivities against cytosolic antigens of the bacterium. Membrane vesicles, including outer and inner membrane components, were precluded from the analyses by subjecting French-presse...
