Taking Lushan Hot Springs Recreational Area as an example, this research explores the relationship between hot springs hotels’ service quality, customer satisfaction, customer loyalty and lifestyle. Research outcomes indicate that hot springs hotel operators need to enhance customer satisfaction in order to improve customer loyalty directly or enhance service quality in order to improve custome...

The equations of planar motion of a mass attached to two anchored massless springs form a symmetric Hamiltonian system. The system has a single dimensionless parameter L, corresponding to the spacing between the anchors. For L > 1, there is a stable equilibrium at which the springs are in tension and lie on a line, but for L < 1, this equilibrium has both springs in compression, and is unstable...

Here, we report the annotated draft genome sequences of nine different cyanobacteria, which were originally collected from different habitats, including hot springs, terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments, and cover four of the five morphological subsections of cyanobacteria.

What is the diversity of cyanobacteria in iron-depositing hot springs? We are currently conducting preliminary studies on the diversity of iron-tolerant CB isolated from irondepositing hot springs in and around Yellowstone National Park (WY, USA). Molecular analysis has confirmed the prediction [1] that the diversity of iron-tolerant CB is ill-defined. Analysis of 16S rRNA sequences from 15 uni...

This study was performed to characterize hydrochemical properties of springs based on their geological origins in Taiwan. Stepwise discriminant analysis (DA) was used to establish a linear classification model of springs using hydrochemical parameters. Two hydrochemical datasets-ion concentrations and relative proportions of equivalents per liter of major ions-were included to perform predictio...

In the eastern Grand Canyon, secondary porosity created by north trending faults, folds, and breccia pipes, facilitates groundwater flow through the South Rim carbonate aquifer. Springs associated with the South Rim Aquifer have low H concentrations, [Ca']/[Mg '] ratios close to unity, and variable uranium concentrations. For a geochemical comparison, springs are subcategorized on the basis of ...

Introduction:  All of  the  people worldwide  are exposed  to  low levels  of  radiation. Cancer induction  and  genetic disorders are among the hazards of low level exposure. In some cases, radiation close to hot springs is  higher than normal areas due to a high concentration and the decay products of Ra-226. Given the use of hot  springs by the general public  because  of their therapeutic p...
