In this study frequency and composition of plankton in Shadegan wetland was carried out in 5 stations during 2007-2008. Genus qualitative identification and their composition and quantitative frequency aspect were studied (for phytoplankton chlorophyll a). Frequency of total 42 genus phytoplankton in 4 classes Bacilariophyceae (Diatom), Cyanophyceae, Chlorophyceae and Dinophyceae are 69.4, 22.2...

this paper investigates the multi-band ofdm (mb-ofdm) based physical (phy) layer proposal for ieee 802.15.3a working group on short-range high data-rate ultra-wide-band (uwb) communications. an overview of the mb-ofdm phy layer architecture with its various parameters is presented and the optimal choice of critical parameters is discussed. next, we derive the theoretical un-coded bit error rate...

In this paper, we argue that the metaphor form of a comparison (i.e., a topic-vehicle pair) is preferred over, and more comprehensible than, the simile form when the interpretive diversity for that comparison is high. Interpretive diversity refers to the richness of the figurative meaning of a comparison; it is high to the extent that more features or properties are related to the figurative me...

to evaluate allelic diversity at loci encoding low molecular weight glutenin subunits (lmw-gs) among 62 genotypes of bread wheat, nine specific primer pairs for glu-a3, glu-b3, glu-d3 loci were employed. pcr products were separated on 2% agarose gels. two pairs of specific primers, at amplified glu-a3 locus, 8 alleles were detected the c allele of which was the most abundant with a frequency of...
