Obese women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have more inflammation in their subcutaneous white adipose tissue (sWAT) than age-and-BMI similar obese women with normal glucose tolerance (NGT). We aimed to investigate whether WAT fatty acids and/or oxylipins are associated with the enhanced inflammatory state in WAT of the T2DM women. Fatty acid profiles were measured in both subcutaneous and...

Dieser Beitrag stellt das ” Security Workflow Analysis Toolkit“ (SWAT) vor, eine Plattform für die formal fundierte Analyse von Geschäftsprozessen. Ausgehend von als Muster formalisierten Sicherheitsanforderungen dient SWAT als Basis für die Analyse von Prozessmodellen und Prozesslogs. Der vorliegende Beitrag zeigt anhand von Beispielen, welche Arten von Analysen mit SWAT möglich sind und wie S...

Evaluating and Developing Parameter Optimization and Uncertainty Analysis Methods for a Computationally Intensive Distributed Hydrological Model. (August 2008) Xuesong Zhang, B.S, Qingdao University, China; M.S., Beijing Normal University, China Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Raghavan Srinivasan This study focuses on developing and evaluating efficient and effective parameter calibration and ...

SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) is a watershed model that has been incorporated into USEPA’s modeling framework called BASINS used for total maximum daily load (TMDL) analysis. It is thus important that SWAT realistically simulate tile flow and pothole landscapes that are common in much of the Corn Belt and Great Lakes states. In this study, SWAT was modified to simulate water table dynam...

Despite the significant role of precipitation in the hydrological cycle, few studies have been conducted to evaluate the impacts of the temporal resolution of rainfall inputs on the performance of SWAT (soil and water assessment tool) models in large-sized river basins. In this study, both daily and hourly rainfall observations at 28 rainfall stations were used as inputs to SWAT for daily strea...

The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model is a continuation of nearly 30 years of modeling efforts conducted by the USDA Agricultural Research Service (ARS). SWAT has gained international acceptance as a robust interdisciplinary watershed modeling tool as evidenced by international SWAT conferences, hundreds of SWAT‐related papers presented at numerous other scientific meetings, and dozen...

We developed a practical method to accelerate execution of Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) using open (free) computational resources. The SWAT source code (rev 622) was recompiled using a noncommercial Intel FORTRAN compiler in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Linux platform, and newly named iOMP-SWAT in this study. GNU utilities of make, gprof, and diff were used to develop the iOMP-SWAT package, profil...
