ABSTRACT Background: Nutrients meeting recommended dietary intakes take time to establish and once established are rarely maintained throughout hospital stay in preterm infants. Methods: Our purpose is to define the nutritional status and growth parameters of hospitalized patients at discharge in our hospital. Data were obtained concerning all 50 infants born weighing <1800 g and <34 weeks of ...

Riparian vegetation research has traditionally focused on channel-related processes because riparian areas are situated on the edge of aquatic ecosystems and are therefore greatly affected by the flow regime of streams and rivers. However, due to their low topographic position in the landscape, riparian areas receive significant inputs of water and nutrients from uplands. These inputs may be im...

Since firms in an emissions trading program are linked together through a permit market, so too are their compliance choices. Thus, enforcement strategies for trading programs must account for not only the direct effects of enforcement on compliance and emissions decisions, but also the indirect effects that occur because changes in enforcement can induce changes in permit prices. This paper us...

The Amazon River estuary is notable at the Amazon Continental Shelf, where the presence of the large amount of water originating from the Amazon during the river's falling discharge period was made evident by the low salinity values and high nutrient levels. Even so, the presence of oceanic waters in the shelf area was significant. Dissolved organic nitrogen was the predominant species of the n...

The fast development in computing and communication has strongly changed the dynamics of financial markets. More people are trading online through the Web instead of using full-service brokerages. Many online financial services have given investors new opportunities to trade stocks and access real-time market information efficient way. But, very few investors in UAE are familiar and use these s...

The Çaygören Reservoir was sampled monthly from February 2007 to January 2009 at three stations to determine the relationships between the chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) dynamics and soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP), nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N), ammonium-nitrogen (NH4-N), water discharge, water transparency, water temperature (T), specific conductance (SC) and pH. Thermal stratification occurred in the re...
