Background: It has been hypothesized that COVID-19 is less prevalent in regions with warm climates. Contradictory results led us to investigate the correlation between temperature and the cumulative COVID-19 incidence rate. Method: We obtained COVID data from CRONALAB, COVID-DASHBOARD, and MCMC databases of Fars province, linked data, and finalized daily COVID-19 cases. Daily data on the temp...

7bis report presents a procedure for estimating the current condition and residual life of -safety-related cast stainless steel components in light wa racos (LWRs). The procedure accounts for loss of fractur toughness caused by hrmal embrittlement and includes the folloing: a review ofdesign and fabrication records, nserice inspection recods, and operating history a fracture mechanics evaluatio...

The Bush Administration has made the expansion of nuclear power generation a centerpiece of its domestic energy policy. However, the White House has not addressed the practical issue of how to overcome the nearly three-decade-long aversion among U.S. electric utilities to investing in new nuclear plants. In today's deregulating market, utilities will not build new nuclear power plants unless th...

The dwarf gourami, Trichogaster lalius, is a low-cost freshwater edible fish for the people of South Asian countries containing variety essential nutrients. first wide-ranging explanation on population parameters specifically; length-frequency distribution (LFD), length-weight relationships (LWRs), length-length relationship (LLR), form factor (a3.0), condition factors (allometric, KA; Fulton’s...

In this study 288 length-weight relationships of some fish species from the Turkish coasts Black Sea were gathered 138 studies, which conducted by several researchers between 1989 and 2021. For all species, “b” values ranged 2.49 for Trachurus trachurus to 3.75 Alosa caspia. The expected range 2.5<b<3.5 is confirmed fish. It thought that high b value (3.75) given A. caspia may be ...

This study was conducted to determine the relationship between length and weight (LWR) of 15 Oxynoemacheilus species i.e. bergianus, O. brandtii, chomanicus, euphraticus, elsae, frenatus, karunensis, kiabii, kurdistanicus, longipinnis, parvinae, persa, marunensis, zagrosensis, zarzianus from Iranian inland waters. LWRs with high coefficients determination were calculated for all species. The va...

a r t i c l e i n f o The US Department of Energy is actively seeking ways in which to delay or obviate the need for additional nuclear waste repositories beyond Yucca Mountain. All of the realistic approaches require the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel. However, the US currently lacks the infrastructure to do this and the costs of building and operating the required facilities are poorly es...
