Ecohydrological optimization of pattern and processes in water-limited ecosystems: A trade-off-based hypothesis
[1] The complex interactions between plants, soils, and climates in semiarid ecosystems make it difficult to define specific ecohydrological optimization mechanisms that underlie observed spatiotemporal patterns of vegetation structure. There remains a clear need to develop conceptual models that are capable of interpreting and predicting spatial pattern formation in savannas (and similar dry w...
متن کاملChanges in Water Quality Parameters in Different Processes of Surface Water Treatment Plant (Case study: Tehranpars Water Treatment Plant)
Background and purpose: Water treatment is of great importance in human life, due to the contamination of water resources. Therefore, continuous evaluation of the performance of water treatment plants is necessary to minimize contamination within the treatment plant in order to create optimal conditions. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive analytic study was performed in Te...
متن کاملRole of water in some biological processes.
The state of intracellular water has been a matter of controversy for a long time for two reasons. First, experiments have often given conflicting results. Second, hitherto, there have been no plausible grounds for assuming that intracellular water should be significantly different from bulk water. A collective behavior of water molecules is suggested here as a thermodynamically inevitable mech...
متن کاملRole of water mediated interactions in protein-protein recognition landscapes.
The energy landscape picture of protein folding and binding is employed to optimize a number of pair potentials for direct and water-mediated interactions in protein complex interfaces. We find that water-mediated interactions greatly complement direct interactions in discriminating against various types of trap interactions that model those present in the cell. We highlight the context depende...
