Botswana has the second highest population of cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) with most living outside protected areas. As a result, many cheetahs are found in farming areas which occasionally results in human-wildlife conflict. This study aimed to look at movement patterns of cheetahs in farming environments to determine whether cheetahs have adapted their movements in these human-dominated landsca...

the automatic assignment of protein secondary structure from three dimensional coordinates is an essentialstep in the characterization of protein structure.although, the recognition of secondary structures suchas alpha-helices and beta-sheets seem straightforward, but there are many different definitions, eachregarding different criteria. we have developed a newalgorithm for protein helix assig...

Afforestation of abandoned agricultural lands contributes significantly to carbon sequestration. The aim the research is study growth dynamics pine forests on farmlands. average biometric parameters model trees indicate that young stands in area are approaching 20th age. Significant relationships were revealed between morphological parameters, which shows sustainability dynamics. Carbon sequest...

Urban expansion often accompanies a loss of natural habitats and arable lands but an increase in urban population. In China, vegetable-dominant small farmlands are common urban/peri-urban areas. Some also associated with government policy that aims to enhance local farmers’ livelihoods as well food availability for city citizens. While create open greenery cover may provide birds resources such...

a vertex irregular total k-labeling of a graph g with vertex set v and edge set e is an assignment of positive integer labels {1, 2, ..., k} to both vertices and edges so that the weights calculated at vertices are distinct. the total vertex irregularity strength of g, denoted by tvs(g)is the minimum value of the largest label k over all such irregular assignment. in this paper, we study the to...
