We sought to determine the relationship between two recent additions to the murine leukemia virus (MLV) ecotropic subgroup: Mus cervicolor isolate M813 and Mus spicilegus endogenous retrovirus HEMV. Though divergent in sequence, the two viruses share an Env protein with similarly curtailed VRA and VRB regions, and infection by both is restricted to mouse cells. HEMV and M813 displayed reciproca...

Abstract Rainfall–runoff models are valuable tools for flood forecasting, management of water resources, and drought warning. With the advancement in space technology, a plethora satellite precipitation products (SPPs) available publicly. However, application data data-driven rainfall–runoff model is emerging requires careful investigation. In this work, two rainfall sets, namely Global Precipi...

Accurately characterizing the performance of an off-grid photovoltaic (PV) microgrid system can help ensure that the system is appropriately sized to reduce the reliance on supplemental power generation via diesel-fueled generators. However, deterministic models cannot account for the inherent variability of solar insolation, ambient temperature, initial battery charge, and electrical load. A M...

With the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources and energy storage devices in the power system, it is important to evaluate the cost of the system by using Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE). In this paper a new metric, Levelized Cost of Delivery (LCOD) is proposed to calculate the LCOE for the energy storage. The recent definitions in LCOE for renewable energy system has been reviewed...

Microgrids are one of the most useful and efficient ways to integrate the renewable energy technologies in order to improve security, quality, reliability and availability of electricity supply. In order to achieve these benefits when a microgrid with a substantial amount of stochastic generation operates in grid connected mode but also during islanding mode, the use of storage systems is essen...
