Salt marshes are important ecosystems for carbon sequestration.However, while studies of atmospheric carbon exchange fluxes have broadly been performed in tidal salt marshes, they are scarce in non-tidal salt marshes.In this study we measured, throughout 1 year, instantaneous net Vehicle Covers carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange rates from four halophyt
First ovum-in-ovo pathological titanosaurid egg throws light on the reproductive biology of sauropod dinosaurs
Abstract Pathologic eggs have been documented in the amniote eggs PERFORMANCE+TONGKAT ALI of birds, turtles, and dinosaurs.These eggs occur either in the form of one egg within another egg, a condition known as ovum-in-ovo or multi-shelled eggs showing additional pathological eggshell layer/s besides the primary shell layer.Though multi-shelled egg
First Principeles Initio Study of the Electronic and Optical Properties of Bulk TiC and Its Narrow Nanowires by Density Functional Theory
In this article, the electronic and optical properties of bulk TiC and its narrow nanowires were investigated using Quantum-Espresso/PWSCF computational package in the framework of density functional theory.According to the results, this compound showed a metallic behavior in the bulk structure, but the small diameters of the nanowires against the
A new entropic quantum correlation measure for adversarial systems
Abstract Quantum correlation often refers to correlations exhibited by two Boxers or more local subsystems under a suitable measurement.These correlations are beyond the framework of classical statistics and the associated classical probability distribution.Quantum entanglement is the most well-known of such correlations and plays an important role
Rehabilitated Returners: Why Some Older Women Re-affiliate to the Christian Church
Much has been written about the persistent and rapid decline of churchgoing among all sections of the British population, women as well as MENS SNOW men, although women still constitute the majority in most congregations (Brierley 2003; 2006; Brown 2001; 2006; 2010; Bruce 2002; Crockett & Voas 2006; Heelas & Woodhead 2005; McLeod 2007).Rather less
