Mechanical compression and distraction forces are known to modulate growth in vertebral growth plates, and are implicated in the progression of scoliosis. The amount of cellular enlargement is thought to be a key variable correlating with differing growth at different anatomical sites. This work tested the hypothesis that growth differences produced by mechanical loading are associated with alt...

two dimensional slope profile morphometric investigation in a part of the land failure prone garhwal region of the lesser himalaya, tehri district, u. p., india, indicates that the landslip morphology is closely related to the dominant movement processes active in this terrain. technique developed for the morphometric analysis of landslips involves the use of five morphometric indices. each ind...

Many slope filtrations occur in algebraic geometry, asymptotic analysis, ramification theory, p-adic theories, geometry of numbers... These functorial filtrations, which are indexed by rational (or sometimes real) numbers, have a lot of common properties. We propose a unified abstract treatment of slope filtrations, and survey how new ties between different domains have been woven by dint of de...

a growth chamber study was carried out to evaluate the allelopahtic effects of shoot and root water extract of hoary cress (cardaria draba) on seed germination and seedling characteristic of sorghum (sorghum bicolor). the study was conducted based on completely randomized design with four replications in research laboratory of faculty of agriculture, university of birjand in 2008. treatments we...
