Tidal harmonic analysis simulations along with simulations spanning four specific historical time periods in 2003 and 2004 were conducted to test the performance of a northern Gulf of Mexico tidal model. A recently developed method for detecting inundated areas based on integrated remotely sensed data (i.e., Radarsat-1, aerial imagery, LiDAR, Landsat 7 ETM+) was applied to assess the performanc...

T he past year has been truly extraordinary. Not only has there been astonishing medical and public health interest in cholesterol, but the term cholesterol has been brought by the media into common culture and consciousness in quite surprising ways. How did this happen? And what are its implications for science, for medicine, and for public health and policy? This evening I will try to address...

In this study marine sponges of inter tidal zone from Hengam Island Persian Gulf were collected by wading at low tides in Eskeleh station at  locations 55˚ 53ʹ 40ʺ E & 26˚ 40ʹ 53ʺ N.For identifying identification of sponge samples, acid digestion method as a method of early detection and microtome section to identify the skeletal structure were used.All the identified sponges were from class De...

Oleoresin samples collected from Pinus sylvestris L. trees from Acıpayam, Çal and Çamlıbel, three different locations in Denizli-Turkey. The constituents of the turpentine oil, obtained by hydrodistillation of oleoresin of Pinus sylvestris L., were identified by GC-MS. Fifty four constituents were detected from the turpentine oil, which constituted about between 96.2% and 98.2% of the total amo...

Chemical composition of the essential oils extracted from the leaves, stems, flowers and seeds of  Heracleum rechingeri Manden. were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Twenty-four components were characterized for the leaf oil with Octyl acetate(47.2%), Octanol(15.2%) and E-caryophyllen (5.7%) as the main constituents. 25 compounds were identified in the stem oil with Elemicin (65.3%), Octyl acetate (13...

chinese jujube (ziziphus jujuba mill.) has long been widely used for human consumption and medicinal purposes in china. it has been reported to possess several vital biological activities. however, the systematic study on the chemical constituents absorbed into plasma and their metabolites is still insufficient. a high-performance liquid chromatography-photodiode array detector-electrospray ion...

Abstract A station of AErosol RObotic NETwork Ocean Color (AERONET-OC) has been set on the Ariake Observation Tower Saga University April, 2018, for verification Second generation Global Imager (SGLI)/Global Change Mission-Climate (GCOM-C). Remote sensing reflectance (Rrs) observed by AERONET-OC was used SGLI. SGLI Version 1 data underestimated shortwave Rrs and (380) Rrs(412) were mostly negat...

chemical composition of the essential oils extracted from the leaves, stems, flowers and seeds of  heracleum rechingeri manden. were analyzed by gc and gc/ms. twenty-four components were characterized for the leaf oil with octyl acetate(47.2%), octanol(15.2%) and e-caryophyllen (5.7%) as the main constituents. 25 compounds were identified in the stem oil with elemicin (65.3%), octyl acetate (13...

In this study, the effects of different bottom friction coefficient (BFC) parameterization schemes on modelling four principal tidal constituents (M 2 , S K 1 O tides) in macrotidal East China Seas were investigated by using a high-resolution model based FVCOM (Finite Volume Community Ocean Model). The applied BFC include: empirical constant (EC-BFC), sediment-dependent form (SD-BFC), and spati...
