This paper deals with the indirect evaluation of the natural wet bulb temperature, t (nw), one of the two quantities forming the basis of the well-known wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) index, considered worldwide to be a suitable and user-friendly tool for the preliminary assessment of hot thermal environments. This quantity can be measured by a wet bulb thermometer (a temperature sensor cove...

We present a scheme for constructing various Conley indices for locally deened maps. In particular we extend the shape index of Robbin and Salamon to the case of a locally deened map in a locally compact Hausdorr space. We compare the shape index with the cohomological Conley index for maps. We also prove the commutativity property of the Conley index, which is analogous to the commutativity pr...

Diverse inhibitory pathways shape cortical information processing; however, the relevant interneurons recruited by sensory stimuli and how they impact principal cells are unclear. Here we show that two major interneuron circuits govern dynamic inhibition in space and time within the olfactory cortex. Dendritic-targeting layer 1 interneurons receive strong input from the olfactory bulb and gover...

An experiment was conducted at the Floriculture Research Field of Horticulture Research Centre (HRC), Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Gazipur, Bangladesh during April, 2015 to February, 2017 to find out the suitable planting materials for specific tuberose genotype for growth, flowering and bulb production of tuberose. Individually both genotypes showed better performances for some ...

Local inhibitory circuits are thought to shape neuronal information processing in the central nervous system, but it remains unclear how specific properties of inhibitory neuronal interactions translate into behavioral performance. In the olfactory bulb, inhibition of mitral/tufted cells via granule cells may contribute to odor discrimination behavior by refining neuronal representations of odo...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the recently constructed environmental stress index (ESI) for a large database comprising various climatic conditions. Data analysis of measurements from 19 locations revealed a high correlation between ESI and the wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) index for each database. Validity from statistical analysis, including optimization procedures, slightly c...

In this article, a Quantitative structure Toxicity Relationships (QSTR) of twenty five phenol derivatives is presented. The QSTR study is mainly based on topological parameter. The topological parameter has been evaluated by CAChe prosoftware. The calculations of topological parameters have been done by MOPAC 2007. The statistical parameter has been calculated by SSP software. Various QSTR mode...
