Maintenance and capital dredging represents a potential risk to tropical environments, especially in turbidity-sensitive environments such as coral reefs. There is little detailed, published observational time-series data that quantifies how dredging affects seawater quality conditions temporally and spatially. This information is needed to test realistic exposure scenarios to better understand...

The pulsar light curves and energy spectra are explored in dissipative magnetospheres with the Aristotelian electrodynamics (AE), where particle acceleration is fully balanced radiation reaction. AE non-zero pair multiplicity computed by a pseudo-spectral method co-moving frame. region near current sheet outside LC accurately captured high-resolution simulation. test trajectory including influe...

Physical activity monitoring algorithms are often developed using conditions that do not represent real-life activities, not developed using the target population, or not labelled to a high enough resolution to capture the true detail of human movement. We have designed a semi-structured supervised laboratory-based activity protocol and an unsupervised free-living activity protocol and recorded...

Circulating human B cells that coexpress V-preB and conventional L chains (V-preB+L+ B cells) are a recently described subset of B cells that express Abs with features of self-reactivity. Initial analysis of V-preB+L+ B cells was limited to Ig-kappa and to the small, underused VH5 family. To determine whether Abs commonly expressed by V-preB+L+ B cells show similar features, we analyzed Ig H ch...

BACKGROUND Rapid ultrasound in shock (RUSH) is the most recent emergency ultrasound protocol, designed to help clinicians better recognize distinctive shock etiologies in a shorter time frame. OBJECTIVES In this study, we evaluated the accuracy of the RUSH protocol, performed by an emergency physician or radiologist, in predicting the type of shock in critical patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS...

OBJECTIVE To verify the concordance between data routinely collected by the Sinasc (Information System on Live Births) and data obtained by a cross-sectional survey (gold standard). METHODS The survey was performed in a sample of 2,831 hospital deliveries in ten maternity hospitals of the municipality of São Luís, Brazil. The sample frame represented about 98% of hospital births. Sinasc's dat...

in this paper we get some results and applications for duals and approximate duals of g-frames in hilbert spaces. in particular, we consider the stability of duals and approximate duals under bounded operators and we study duals and approximate duals of g-frames in the direct sum of hilbert spaces. we also obtain some results for perturbations of approximate duals.

in this paper, g-dual function-valued frames in l2(0;1) are in-troduced. we can achieve more reconstruction formulas to ob-tain signals in l2(0;1) by applying g-dual function-valued framesin l2(0;1).
