The objective of this study was to examine the variation among ammonia-oxidizing and denitrifying communities in soils of a natural Fennoscandian boreal forest and of a forest with a long history of fertilization with different levels of nitrogen (N), and to examine whether there are any changes in the microbial...
Cellular sets in the Hilbert cube are the intersection of nested sequences of normal
cubes. One way of getting cellular maps on the Hilbert cube is by decomposing the Hilbert
cube into cellular sets and using a quotient map. By using a cellular decomposition of the
Hilbert cube, an example...
Microfinance has been extolled by donor agencies, development practitioners and policy makers as a tool for alleviating poverty and empowering women. Yet little systematic research has been done to assess the conditions and extent to which microfinance programs accomplish these goals. This essay provides an assessment of that research. Based...
People like going on trips with friends and tend to plan their trips well in advance to have the best possible experience of a destination and get the most out of the places they visit and/or the activities they plan to partake in. Right now, the Internet provides a wealth...
High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) affects the pH of weak acids due to an increased degree of acid dissociation while under pressure. The temporary pH reduction by high pressure in such a case may influence the barotolerance of microorganisms. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of weak...
Branch-and-Bound algorithms are developed to optimally
schedule static single- and multi-stage job-shop productions. The 'corollary' of the study is to experimentally verify the effectiveness of
branch-and-bound algorithms to overcome the "curse of dimensionality" due to the combinatorial nature of job-shop scheduling problems.
The static scheduling problem contemplated in this dissertation...
Intensive cultivation of native grassland for dryland agriculture continuously depleted soil organic carbon (SOC) and nutrients. In 2010, we evaluated the influence of 80 yr of crop residue and nutrient management practices on SOC and N in 0- to 60-cm soil depth profiles in conventionally tilled winter wheat (Triticum aestivum...
