This paper presents a roadmap performed in 2010 as part of European project for the modelling carbon capture and storage technology, various scenarios with different taxations permit prices CO2 emissions considering Greek national plans, then gradual decommissioning lignite or other units electricity power plants. In addition, this study first check, 10 years after its writing, current situatio...

Background: There is a worldwide trend of change in Medical Education from subject-based towards system-based approach. Several reports from various medical universities all over the world indicate that system based integrated curriculum may be considered as one of the major reforms to prepare better physicians for the next century. The objective of this study was to design and implement a hori...

We present the results of a restriction site survey of variation at five loci in Drosophila athabasca, complimenting a previous study of the period locus. There is considerably greater differentiation between the three semispecies of D. athabasca at the period locus and two other X-linked genes (no-on-transient-A and E74A) than at three autosomal genes (Xdh, Adh and RC98). Using a modification ...

Growing technological challenges and soaring costs are gradually bringing the MOSFET scaling to an end. This intensifies the search of alternative technologies and computational principles. The electron spin attracts attention as a possible candidate to be used in future electron devices for complimenting or even replacing the charge degree of freedom employed in MOSFETs. The spin state is char...

Environmental DNA (eDNA) is an emerging sampling method that has been used successfully for detection of rare aquatic species. The Identification of sampling tools that are less stressful for target organisms has become increasingly important for rare and endangered species. A decline in abundance of the Southern Distinct Population Segment (DPS) of North American Green Sturgeon located in Cali...

The degree of consistency with which groups of animals use the landscape is determined by a variety of ecological processes that influence their movements and patterns of habitat use. We developed a technique termed Distributional Consistency that uses survey data of unmarked individuals to quantify temporal consistency in their spatial distribution, while accounting for changes in population s...

Cases of child abuse and homicide are amongst the biggest challenges investigators face, with complex evidence bases often strongly contested reliant on specialist interpretation medical evidence. In many cases, this includes examination deceased’s skeleton using different macroscopic microscopic imaging methods. Rib fractures a common concern when examining suspicious cases much research has b...

This study aims to examine nominal vocatives in Twitter through the analysis of 1500 posts extracted from accounts five well-known female and male rappers. From this total, a sample 550 were analysed. Attention is paid their frequency, class, position, type clause polarity which they occur, pragmatic functions express. The factor gender also investigated. reveals that those posting these make u...
