Background. Abdominal fat accumulation, also known as central obesity, is a major risk factor for many degenerative diseases, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Isotonic and isometric workouts can be used to avoid the buildup of fat in the belly, and young ladies should measure their waist circumference regularly. Objectives. This study showed how isotonic and isometric exercise af...

the periwinkle with the scientific name of catharanthus roseus is one of the most important ornamental plants of the apocynaceae family. in order to evaluate the effect of different waters on the amount of the nutrient elements in soil and aerial parts of catharanthus roseus, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted in 3 replications. experimental treatments we...

The present pot experiment was undertaken to investigate the phytoremediation potential of corn and oat in soil. Treatments consisted of four cadmium (Cd) levels (0, 5, 10 and 20 mg l 1) and three irrigation intervals (1, 3 and 7 days), arranged in the form of a complete randomized design with three replications. Corn and oat were harvested after 75 and 90 days, respectively. Transpiration rate...

in order to investigate the effect of irrigation intervals and harvesting time on yield and yield components of anise (pimpinella anisum l.) a field experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, university of zanjan in 2010. for this purpose a spilt-plot experiment based on complete randomized block design with three replications was used. three irrigation intervals (every 7, 1...

Abstract The drip irrigation method offers the potential of higher application efficiency water and allows precise placement fertilizer directly in root zone. use also facilitates frequent via injection system, which conjunction between nutrient time crop needs. effect nitrogen (N) rate fertigation scheduling were evaluated on yield, N uptake, recovery potato grown sandy soil. was applied at tw...

to determine effects of phenyl-phethalamate acid on yield and yield components of tomato, cucumber, eggplant and cabbage, this experiment was investigated in a randomized complete block design with three replications in the spring and summer of 2010. treatments included the time and number of foliar spraying with phenyl-phethalamate acid (1000 ppm). control plants were not sprayed. the first st...

A variety of methods is available to estimate a portfolio’s Value-at-Risk. Aside from the overall VaR there is an apparent need for information about marginal VaR, component VaR and incremental VaR. Expressions for these VaR metrics have been derived under the restrictive normality assumption. In this paper we investigate these VaR concepts in an elliptical world and in a general distribution-f...
