In this study, morphometric features such as total length, standard length, and fork length obtained from a total of 321 Sparus aurata samples, including 164 females and 157 males, captured between 2012 and 2013 from İskenderun Bay were used as input value, while weight was used as an output value. The Artificial Neural Network (MLP-Multi-L Layer Perceptron) as well as the M5P algorithm and Lin...

In this article, is proposed to identify the methods for estimating aerodynamic roughness length (z0) best suited feasibility studies construction of wind farms. For that, a systematic review carried out filter latest works that apply different find z0 values. Identifying specific surface important simulate vertical profile and mechanical turbulent fluxes estimation in atmospheric layer. Must b...

This study was designed to characterize morphometric sperm subpopulations in normozoospermic men by using different statistical methods and examining their suitability to classify correctly different sperm nuclear morphologies present in human ejaculates. Ejaculates from 21 normozoospermic men were collected for the study. After semen collection and analysis, samples were prepared for morphomet...

The analysis of morphology is crucial to the study of phylogeny in many ancient and modern organismal groups. Recently a number of arguments have been made in favor of regarding certain kinds of morphometric variables as putatively homologous characters and allowing them to participate, along with other non-morphometric variables, in parsimony-based cladistic analyses. These arguments rest on t...

Although many of the goals and concepts of qualitative morphological analysis and morphometrics are similar, systematists have largely rejected the use of morphometric methods in phylogenetic analysis on a variety of grounds. This review finds that (1) the concepts of a cladistic character and a morphometric variable are essentially identical, (2) morphometric methods can be instrumental in dis...

Morphometric correlation networks of cortical thickness, surface area, and gray matter volume have statistically different structural topology. However, there is no report directly describing their correlation patterns in view of interregional covariance. Here, we examined the characteristics of the correlation patterns in three morphometric networks of cortical thickness, surface area, and gra...

BACKGROUND The pregnancy rate during in-vitro fertilization (IVF) following progesterone supplement still remains very low at around 20%. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of peanut oil itself on the endometrial receptivity, the pregnancy success rate and fertility during the peri-implantation time in hyper stimulated and normal rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-six adult Sprague Dawley...

watershed is regarded as a very complex system of natural, social, economic and ecological dimensions and like any similar systems, exploitation of its resources requires a comprehensive and coordinated planning and management. given the importance of watershed management projects for the development and management of natural resources, the enhancement of the efficiency of these activities is e...

this study was carried out in order to determine the leave characteristics of some chestnut genotypes in the central black sea region of turkey and also to determine whether the leaf morphometric characteristics could be used for differentiation of genotypes. in this study, seven chestnut (castanea sativa mill.) genotypes (sa5-1, se 3-12, se 21-2, se 21-9, 552-8, 556-7 and 556-8) and one cultiv...

The black-striped pipefish, Syngnathus abaster, is a species of the Syngnathidae family. This study provides data on the morphometric, meristic and genetic structuring of the Caspian Sea pipefish, Syngnathus abaster. Eight morphometric characteristics based on total length and five morphometric characteristics based on standard length were analyzed. A total of 50 specimens were collected in bra...
