Heavy metals found in urban air with its toxic effects have a direct impact on human health. Selection of appropriate tree species and shrub refining capacity of heavy metals in urban areas can greatly reduce the toxic effects of these materials. This study aimed to identify the most suitable tree and shrub species of broadleaf evergreen, deciduous and coniferous refinement of heavy metals lead...

Cypress (Cupressus funebris Endl.) is a major tree species planted for forestland restoration in low-fertility soil and areas where rocky desertification has occurred. Calcium (Ca) fertilizer can adjust the pH of an important effect on growth cypress. Soil water losses are serious Southern China, acidification increasing, which results high calcium loss. However, adaptability cypress clones to ...

Platycladus is a distinct genus of evergreen coniferous tree in the cypress family Cupressaceae, containing only one species, Platycladus orientalis, also known as Chinese Arborvitae or Biota. It is a small, slowgrowing tree, to 15-20 m tall and 0.5 m trunk diameterThe different parts of the plant are traditionally used as a diuretic, anticancer, anticonvulsant, stomachic, antipyretic, analgesi...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Pollens from the Cupressaceae family are considered important allergens in the Mediterranean area, though reports of the prevalence of allergic symptoms have ranged from 1.04% to 35.4%. Our aim was to detect the prevalence of cypress pollen sensitization and determine its clinical importance in patients with seasonal respiratory allergy. METHODS We used skin prick tes...

Agents situated in dynamic and unpredictable environments require several capabilities, including synthesizing and executing plans while continuing to be responsive to the world. The Cypress system is a domain-independent framework for defining persistent agents with this full range of behavior. Cypress has been used for several applications, including military operations and fault diagnosis on...

Cypress Semiconductor makes a variety of PLL-based clock generators. This application note provides a set of recommendations to optimize usage of Cypress clock devices in a system. The application note begins with recommended termination techniques for clock generators. Subsequently, power supply filtering and bypassing is discussed. Finally, the application note provides some recommendations o...

Tree species diversity is a key parameter to describe forest ecosystems. It is, for example, important for issues such as wildlife habitat modeling and close-to-nature forest management. We examined the suitability of 8-band WorldView-2 satellite data for the identification of 10 tree species in a temperate forest in Austria. We performed a Random Forest (RF) classification (object-based and pi...

This paper describes a partial reimplementation of Doug Smith's CYPRESS algorithm design system within the Soar problem-solving architecture. The system, CYPRESS-SOAR, reproduces most of CYPRESS' behavior in the synthesis of three divide-and-conquer sorting algorithms from formal specifications. CYPRESS-Soar is based on heuristic search of problem spaces, and uses search to compensate for missi...
