Abstract. Fire is an important source of ozone (O3) precursors. The formation surface O3 can cause damage to vegetation and reduce stomatal conductance. Such processes feed back inhibit dry deposition indirectly enhance O3. Here, we apply a fully coupled chemistry–vegetation model estimate the indirect contributions global fires through O3–vegetation feedback during 2005–2012. emissions directl...

BACKGROUND Research has demonstrated that Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is one of the most widely recognized mental disorders, but recognition is affected by trauma type. AIMS The current study investigated the effect of direct versus indirect exposure to traumatic event and trauma types on Mental Health Literacy (MHL) of PTSD. METHODS Two hundred and thirty-three participants were ...

Abstract: In this paper, we propose direct and indirect adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control approaches for a class of nonaffine nonlinear systems. In the direct case, we use the implicit function theory to prove the existence of an ideal implicit feedback linearization controller, and hence approximate it to attain the desired performances. In the indirect case, we exploit the linear structure ...
