The objective of this paper is to provide an analysis of particulate metal emissions in the USA. The analysis will identify natural and industrial sources, environmental standards, emission trends, and controls of particulate emissions. Since the majority of airborne metal emissions originate from metal industries and electric utility facilities, environmental and worker assessments of exposure...

There are two ways eukaryotes double number of chromosomes: (1) whole genome duplication (polyploidy), in which all nuclear DNA is replicated, and (2) karyotypic fission (pseudopolyploidy), in which all chromosomes are physically bifurcated. We contrast polyploidy with pseudopolyploidy, highlighting when it is crucial to look at genetic vs. genomic levels. We review history of pseudopolyploidy,...

Amenability is a geometric property of convex cones that stronger than facial exposedness and assists in the study error bounds for conic feasibility problems. In this paper we establish numerous properties amenable investigate relationships between amenability other cones, such as niceness projectional exposure. We show compact slice closed cone equivalent to cone, prove several results on pre...
