Recognizing the crop and region-specific irreversible effects of climate change on agriculture is unavoidable. The Southeastern United States region (SE-US) contributes significantly to (US) economy through its diverse agricultural productivity. Climatically, this more vulnerable than rest country. This study was designed quantify effect changing climate, i.e., daily maximum temperature (Tmax),...

Abstract The Nasia catchment is the reservoir with significant surface water resources in Northern Ghana and home to numerous subsistence farmers engaged rainfed dry season irrigation farming. Yet, there little understanding of hydro-climatic land use/cover conditions this basin. This study investigated trends, relationships changes variables addition implications observable over a period 50 ye...

Abstract. The daily highest air temperature (Tmax) is a key parameter for global and regional high analysis which very difficult to obtain in areas where there are no meteorological observation stations. This study proposes an estimation framework obtaining high-precision Tmax. Firstly, we build near-surface diurnal variation model estimate Tmax with spatial resolution of 0.1? China from 1979 2...

BACKGROUND Isoflavones from soybeans may provide some beneficial impacts on postmenopausal health. The purpose of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of plasma isoflavones (daidzein and genistein) after a single dose of orally administered soy beverage and soy extract capsules in postmenopausal Thai women. METHODS We conducted a randomized two-phase crossover ph...

The pharmacokinetics of ceftriaxone were investigated in six healthy mainland Chinese adults (four males and two females). A single 1.0-g dose was administered intravenously or intramuscularly in a two-way crossover design. Plasma and saliva samples were collected on 11 occasions between 0 and 36 h after dosing. Ceftriaxone was not detected in any saliva samples. The mean volume of distribution...

Air-cooled battery thermal management system (BTMS) technology is commonly used to control the temperature distribution of pack in an electric vehicle. In this study, parallel plates are introduced improve cooling efficiency BTMS, which can change airflow pack. Firstly, effect number on performance BTMS investigated; within acceptable range power consumption loss, model with two shows best effi...

Air-cooled battery thermal management system (BTMS) is a widely adopted temperature control strategy for lithium-ion batteries. However, pack with this type of BTMS typically suffers from high temperatures and large differences (∆T). To address issue, study conducted an electro-thermal coupled model to optimize the flow channel structure reducing maximum (Tmax) ∆T in “J-type” air-cooled BTMS. T...

Co-administration of piperine, an alkaloid isolated from Piper nigrum L. enhanced bioavailability of beta lactam antibiotics, amoxycillin trihydrate and cefotaxime sodium significantly in rats. The improved bioavailability is reflected in various pharmacokinetic parameters viz. tmax, Cmax, t(1/2) and AUC, of these antibiotics. The increased bioavailability could be attributed to the effect of p...

Temperature extremes can cause disastrous impacts on ecological and social economic systems. China is very sensitive to climate change, as its warming rate exceeds that of the global mean level. This paper focused on the spatial and temporal changes of the temperature extremes characterized by the 95th percentile of maximum temperature (TX95), the 5th percentile of the minimum temperature (TN5)...
