A geo-statistics method combined with GIS was applied to study the soil special variation characteristics of a typical basin on the Northwestern Plateau of Hebei Province. It indicates that the rational crop layout is determined by the soil texture. And the crop layout optimization schemes were put forward for different production objectives based on the GIS platform with the soilcrops special ...

In this work, the effects of operative parameters on CH4, CO2, O2, and N2 membrane gas separation for poly (4-methyl-1-pentane) (PMP) membrane modified by adding nanoparticles of TiO2, ZnO, and Al2O3 are assessed and investigated. The operative parameters were type and percentage of nanoparticles, and cross membrane pr...

introduction :   co 2 (carbon dioxide) laser application in circumcision, for cutting and coagulation, has been reported to have excellent results. also, tissue glue has been reported to have advantages over sutures for approximation of wound edges. most previous studies focused on comparisons between co 2 laser and scalpel, or between tissue glue and sutures. this study prospectively compared ...
