We describe our continuing work on implementing Open GIS Consortium (OGC) compatible Grid Services for the International Solid Earth Research Virtual Observatory. Our initial efforts focused on collecting Earthquake and GPS data from various sources, converting them to GML and enabling query capabilities using pure Web Services approach. We have extended this work by creating Web Services imple...

Dual polarized X-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data were obtained for a test site in South Carolina containing a variety of forest and agricultural cover types, as well as water and urban areas. The optically correlated images were digitized with a scanning microdensitometer using a 40 ~m aperture. Digi tal registration of the two polarizations was more difficult than anticipated due to g...

Antidepressant activities of the original compounds GSB-106 [bis(N-monosuccinyl-L-seryl-L-lysine) hexamethylenediamide], a mimetic fourth loop brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF); GML-3(N-butyl-N-methyl-1-phenylpyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-3-carboxamide), ligand 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO); and GZK-111 (N-phenylacetylglycyl-L-proline ethyl ester), substitute dipeptide that is biotransform...

A sensitive and selective extraction - spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace amounts of palladium is reported. The method is based on quantitative extraction of brownish tetrabutylammoium tetraiodopalladium (II) ion pair into a small valume of chloroform at pH 1.3-12.0, followed by spectrophotometric measurements. The Beer's law is obeyed over the range 0.02-1.09 <em...

The Gauss–Marquardt–Levenberg (GML)method of computer-based parameter estimation, in commonwith other gradient-based approaches, suffers from the drawback that it may become trapped in local objective functionminima, and thus report ‘‘optimized’’ parameter values that are not, in fact, optimized at all. This can seriously degrade its utility in the calibration of watershed models where local op...

The difficulty of balance between environment and energy consumption makes countries enterprises face a dilemma, improving efficiency has become one the ways to solve this dilemma. Based on data 158 from 1980 2018, dynamic TFP different is calculated by means Super-SBM-GML model. decomposed into indexes EC (Technical Efficiency Change), TC (Technological Change) been extended PEC (Pure SEC (Sca...

It has been postulated that the emergence of autoimmune gastritis in neonatal thymectomised (d3Tx) BALB/c mice may be a consequence of post-surgery deficit in Tregs. In this study, previously obtained samples from d3Tx mice were used in order to determine whether thymectomy creates a deficit in this T cell subset thereby allowing the emergence of autoimmune phenomena as a prerequisite for GML. ...
