abstract caracal (caracal caracal) is a species of felidae which has a vast distribution in the central area ofiran. in this study, we gathered all records of caracal in yazd province during nine years (2002-2011). we also analyzed the results of intensive camera-trapping in 3 protected areas inyazd province. based on the results of the study 96 records of caracal were obtained in the study are...

For the lithostratigraphy and microbiostratigraphical studies, a stratigraphical section (named Dareh-Goshayesh) has selected and is located in southeast of Maragheh city, south of eastern Azerbaijan province in the northwest of Iran. The thickness of successions in the selected stratigraphic section is measured about 223.6 m. The mentioned studied stratigraphic section is composed of two clast...

The Polish Society for Biomaterials (PSB) and AGH University of Science and Technology (AGH) hosted the 27th Conference of the European Society for Biomaterials (ESB). The conference was held in Kraków, Poland from 30th August to 3rd September 2015 at the brand new ICE Congress Center. More than 966 participants from 44 countries attended the ESB 2015 conference. Figure 1 shows the number of at...

In existing anisotropic diffusion-based semi-supervised learning approaches, anisotropic graph Laplacian is estimated based on (potentially noisy) function evaluations. We propose to regularize the graph Laplacian estimates. We develop a framework that regularizes the Laplace-Beltrami operators on Riemannian manifolds, and discretize it to a regularizer on diffusivity operators on graphs. Isotr...

The purpose of this study is to determine the woody species diversity in Sweet chestnut tree, Hazel-tree and Italian cypress ecosystems in the Guilan forests. A lozeng 0.5 ha sample plot was selectively established on each site. In the Sweet chestnut ecosystems , 4 sites were classified, whereas 10 sites of Hazel tree and Italian cypress ecosystems were classified based on species composition. ...

The mining of hard rocks by mechanical methods, using cutting tools, is associated with problems such as sparking, dust generation and increased wear. application disk tools allows limiting these but requires constructing a machine large dimensions weight. To limit problems, high-pressure water jets can be applied. article presents the effects this solution in field stand tests when symmetrical...

We present a database of 21 bond dissociation energies for breaking metal-ligand bonds. The molecules in the metal-ligand bond energy database are AgH, CoH, CoO+, CoOH+, CrCH3+, CuOH2+, FeH, Fe(CO)5, FeO, FeS, LiCl, LiO, MgO, MnCH3NiCH2+, Ni(CO)4, RhC, VCO+, VO, and VS. We have also created databases of metal-ligand bond lengths and atomic ionization potentials. The molecules used for bond leng...

Fungal species Lasiodiplodia theobromae of family Botryosphaeriaceae is a pathogen causing significant loss production and quality mango crop in Vietnam worldwide. In this study, fungal strain designed as XB1 was isolated from stem-end rot fruits, identified tested its susceptibility to silver copper nanoparticles. Strain identification based on biological characteristics sequence analysis 5.8S...
