Several studies carried out after the Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986 showed that lichens and mosses are suitable bioindicators of the fall-out, given their long life expectancy. Cs-137 activities were measured in different mosses, epigeic and epiphytic lichens, collected from three sampling sites from Koppl, in the Salzburg province and the effective and biological half-time of Cs-137 were ...

Theory predicts that tighter correlation between floral traits and weaker relationship between floral and vegetative traits more likely occur in specialized flowers than generalized flowers, favoring by precise fit with pollinators. However, traits and trait correlations frequently vary under different environments. Through detecting spatiotemporal variation in phenotypic traits (floral organ s...

Short Texts play a significant role in reviews, blogs, social networking sites etc. The replacement of featured text by short text can greatly reduce the text size, thereby allowing more information to be communicated. Emails apparently do not have large number of short texts. This paper proposes a novel idea for automatic construction of Short Text Dictionary (STD) that maps the large texts in...
