The most popular approach for smoothing renewable power generation fluctuations is to use a battery energy storage system. lead-acid one of the used types, due several advantages, such as its low cost. However, precision model parameters crucial reliable and accurate model. Therefore, determining actual required. This paper proposes an optimal identification strategy extracting battery. propose...

© Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences 2002 Ambio Vol. 31 No. 5, August 2002 http://www.ambio.kva.se INTRODUCTION In this paper, white-tailed sea eagle (Haliaeetus albicilla) and sea eagle are used synonymously. The white-tailed sea eagle population on the Swedish coast of the Baltic Sea has been under strong influence of environmental pollution for decades. Consistent breeding failures over sever...

A unique community of four syntopic eagle species exists in north-central Kazakhstan. Questions about behaviour and genetics in these four species would benefit from the development of microsatellite markers. We isolated eight polymorphic microsatellite repeats (AAAG) n from the eastern imperial eagle ( Aquila heliaca ) genome using a hybridization enrichment technique. These loci revealed mode...

Riboflavin binding protein was purified from the egg yolk of Aquila hastate (Eagle). The protein was purified using DEAE Sepharose ion exchange chromatography followed by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. The purity of the protein was judged by cylindrical and slab SDSPAGE techniques. Comparison of the mobility of RfBP with that of the standard molecular weight marker protein revealed that the ...

-Cackling Geese (Brunta canadensis minima) were preyed on heavily in northeastern California by Golden Eagles (Aquila chysaetos) and less commonly by Bald Eagles (Haliaeetus Zeucocephalus) in 19851990. Eagle predation on Cackling Geese was minimal in other wintering locations in California. In the Klamath Basin, eagles killed Cackling Geese most frequently soon (<IO days) after the geese arrive...

Southwest Plains (JSDA Forest Service Research Note RM-RN-535 May 1995 Rocky Mountain Forest and Range Experiment Station Constructing Bald Eagle Nests With Natural Materials Teryl G. Grubb1 A technique for using natural materials to build artificial nests for bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) and other raptors is detailed. Properly constructed nests are as permanently secured to the nest ...

—Maternal defensive behavior against predators may appear risky but is common in many species. Herein we describe maternal defensive behavior of mountain goats (Oreamnos americanus) against Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) predatory attempts. We found that Golden Eagles attacked goats in 1.9% of sightings (n = 311 sightings of active Golden Eagles over 12 years) but were never successful. Mothe...

Wissensmanagement (WM) und IT-gestütztes Lernen sind gerade in kleinen Behörden der Öffentlichen Verwaltung (ÖV), wie z.B. in ländlichen Gemeinden, noch ausbaufähig. Am Beispiel des EU-Projekts EAGLE werden Projektergebnisse als Verbesserungsansätze für ein arbeitsprozessorientiertes, IT-gestütztes Lernen vorgestellt. Neuartige Plattform-Features und ihr ÖVspezifischer Nutzen werden erläutert. ...

Now, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in Washington, D.C., is poised to declare victory for the majestic avian by removing the bald eagle from its list of threatened species by a court-ordered deadline of 29 June. Bald-eagle experts agree with the move, although some argue that a small population in the Southwest isn't ready for delisting. Many remain worried, however, about how well ne...

We give an overview of the science case for spectroscopy of resolved stellar populations beyond the Local Group with the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT). In particular, we present science simulations undertaken as part of the EAGLE Phase A design study for a multi–integral-field-unit, near-infrared spectrograph. EAGLE will exploit the unprecedented primary aperture of the E-ELT to de...
