the aim of this paper is to present a modified version of gam (m-gam) which should showthat the results gained by using this version are more accurate and realistic. the modification is based on theinclusion of tourists and their opinion regarding the importance of indicators in the assessment process. theassessment was done by using both versions of gam and the results were compared and analyz...

The dynamics of finite-amplitude, undamped geodesic-acoustic-mode (GAM) packets is shown to be well described by a nonlinear Schrödinger equation. GAM supposed generated through an appropriate initial perturbation, and its coupling with other possible modes in the plasma disregarded. However, modifications dispersion properties due itself are retained. A theoretical approach based on variationa...

The two-field equations governing fully nonlinear dynamics of the drift wave (DW) and geodesic acoustic mode (GAM) in toroidal geometry are derived gyrokinetic framework. Two stages with distinctive features identified analyzed. In linear growth stage, set can be reduced to intensively studied parametric decay instability (PDI), accounting for spontaneous resonant excitation GAM by DW. main res...

Research on human aggression has progressed to a point at which a unifying framework is needed. Major domain-limited theories of aggression include cognitive neoassociation, social learning, social interaction, script, and excitation transfer theories. Using the general aggression model (GAM), this review posits cognition, affect, and arousal to mediate the effects of situational and personolog...

Variance partitioning methods, which are built upon multivariate statistics, have been widely applied in different taxa and habitats in community ecology. Here, I performed a literature review on the development and application of the methods, and then discussed the limitation of available methods and the difficulties involved in sampling schemes. The central goal of the work is then to propose...
