pedomodels have become a popular topic in soil science and environmentalresearch. they are predictive functions of certain soil properties based on other easily orcheaply measured properties. the common method for fitting pedomodels is to use classicalregression analysis, based on the assumptions of data crispness and deterministic relationsamong variables. in modeling natural systems such as s...

oxide nanoparticles can exhibit unique physical and chemical properties due to their limited size and a high density of corner or edge surface sites. in this study, mgo nanoparticle was synthesized using mg(ch3coo)2 and hexamethylenetetramine as starting materials. the structure and optical properties of these particles are investigated by using x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron micros...
