Tree Water Status Affects Tree Branch Position

Optimized Tree-Type Cylindrical-Shaped Nanoporous Filtering Membranes with 6 or 7 Branch Pores in each Pore Tree

The performances of the optimized tree-type cylindrical-shaped nanoporous fltering membranes with six or seven branch pores in each pore tree are analytically studied. The radius Rb,1 of the branch pore for fltration is normally on the 1 or 10 nm scales. The larger trunk pore is for ...

Simplified tree water status measurements can aid almond irrigation

Thoracoabdominal impalement by a tree branch.

A 27-year-old male suffered an accidental fall onto the branch of a tree, resulting in thoracoabdominal impalement with entry site below the left clavicle. A chest-abdominal computed tomography (Fig. 1A and B) revealed subcutaneous emphysema in the chest wall, large left pneumothorax with collapsed lung, parenchymal lesions in both lung lobes and the presence of a foreign body with air density,...

Tree split probabilities determine the branch lengths

The evolution of aligned DNA sequence sites is generally modeled by a Markov process operating along the edges of a phylogenetic tree. It is well known that the probability distribution on the site patterns at the tips of the tree determines the tree and its branch lengths. However, the number of patterns is typically much larger than the number of edges, suggesting considerable redundancy in t...

A Context-Tree Branch-Weighting Algorithm

The context-tree weighting algorithm [4] is a universal source coding algorithm for binary tree sources. In [2] the algorithm is modified for byte-oriented tree sources. This paper describes the context-tree branch-weighting algorithm, which can reduce the number of parameters for such sources, without increasing the complexity significantly.
