We extend PGD and its recovery guarantee [1] from one-dimensional spectrally sparse signal recovery to the multi-dimensional case. Assume the underlying multi-dimensional spectrally sparse signal is of model order r and total dimension N . We show that O(r log(N)) measurements are sufficient for PGD to achieve successful recovery with high probability provided the underlying signal satisfies so...

Removal of excess nitrogen (N) can best be achieved through denitrification processes that transform N in water and terrestrial ecosystems to di-nitrogen (N2) gas. The greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) is considered an intermediate or end-product in denitrification pathways. Both abiotic and biotic denitrification processes use a single N source to form N2O. However, N2 can be formed from two ...

G08CDF also returns the standardized statistic Z 1⁄4 ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi n1 þ n2 n1n2 r D, where D may be Dn1;n2 , D þ n1;n2 or D n1;n2 depending on the choice of the alternative hypothesis. The distribution of this statistic converges asymptotically to a distribution given by Smirnov as n1 and n2 increase; see Feller (1948), Kendall and Stuart (1973), Kim and Jenri...

UNLABELLED The ability to reduce atmospheric nitrogen (N2) to ammonia, known as N2 fixation, is a widely distributed trait among prokaryotes that accounts for an essential input of new N to a multitude of environments. Nitrogenase reductase gene (nifH) composition suggests that putative N2-fixing heterotrophic organisms are widespread in marine bacterioplankton, but their autecology and ecologi...

We study a discrete time model of the growth of two species of plankton with competitive and allelopathic effects on each other N1(k + 1) = N1(k)exp{r1(k)− a11(k)N1(k)− a12(k)N2(k) − b1(k)N1(k)N2(k)}, N2(k + 1) = N2(k)exp{r2(k) − a21(k)N1(k) − a22(k) N2(k)− b2(k)N1(k)N2(k)}. A set of sufficient conditions is obtained for the existence of multiple positive periodic solutions for this model. The ...

We measured N2 fixation rates from oceanic zones that have traditionally been ignored as sources of biological N2 fixation; the aphotic, fully oxygenated, nitrate (NO(-) 3)-rich, waters of the oligotrophic Levantine Basin (LB) and the Gulf of Aqaba (GA). N2 fixation rates measured from pelagic aphotic waters to depths up to 720 m, during the mixed and stratified periods, ranged from 0.01 nmol N...

Different modified atmosphere conditions with various CO2 concentrations on microbial load (psychrophile, mesophile aerobic and anaerobic bacteria) and physico-chemical properties of barramundi (Lates  calcarifer Bloch) fillets stored at 8°C were compared to determine the best packaging conditions. The gas conditions evaluated were 100% CO2 (M1), 75% CO2/25% N2 (M2), 50% CO2/50% N2 (M3), 25% CO...

In this paper we present the results of a study of the electron cooling rate, the production rates of vibrationally excited N2…v†, and the production frequency of the N2 vibrational quanta arising from the collisions of electrons with unexcited N2…0† and vibrationally excited N2…1† molecules as functions of the electron temperature. The electron energy transfer rates for vibrational excitation ...
