Despite substantial knowledge on thermoregulation in reptiles, the mechanisms involved in heat exchange of sea turtles have not been investigated in detail. We studied blood flow in the front flippers of two green turtles, Chelonia mydas, and four loggerhead turtles, Caretta caretta, using Doppler ultrasound to assess the importance of regional blood flow in temperature regulation. Mean blood f...

BACKGROUND The catch of marine whitefish is typically seasonal, whereas the land-based processing industry has a need for all-year stable supply of raw materials. This challenge can be met by applying fish frozen at sea. When using frozen fish, the methods employed for thawing may influence the safety and quality of the final product. This study aimed to investigate the applicability of novel t...

Two unusual circulation patterns were measured in the Ria of Pontevedra (NW Spain). The first one showed a positive two layered tidal pattern with water leaving the estuary through surface layers and entering it through the bottom ones. This unusual pattern is observed to depend on the particular summer stratification conditions, caused by upwelling events and solar radiation, and on the presen...

Many studies have examined the physical changes expected in the environment as a result of anthropogenic forcing. These physical changes will have an effect on ecosystems as well. In this study, a nitrogenphytoplankton-zooplankton (NPZ) model is used to examine the effects of environmental changes on primary productivity in the North Pacific ocean. The physical variables considered are mixed la...

variations of global-mean surface temperature. A constant linear increase in SWV based on the satellite-observed rate of SWV change yields a global mean surface warming of 0.03 ± 0.01 °C/decade over a 50-year period, which accounts for about 19 % of the observed surface temperature increase prior to the warming hiatus. In the same experiment, trend analyses during different periods reveal a mul...

Many general circulation models (GCMs) share similar biases in the representation of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) in the Atlantic, even when they are forced with the time series of the observed sea surface temperature (SST). Specifically, they overestimate precipitation in the Southern Hemisphere in boreal spring and in the Caribbean region in boreal summer. The majority of the mod...

In the present paper a state-of-the-art large eddy simulation model (LES-COAST), suited for the analysis of water circulation and mixing in closed or semi-closed areas, is presented and applied to the study of the hydrodynamic characteristics of the Muggia bay, the industrial harbor of the city of Trieste, Italy. The model solves the non-hydrostatic, unsteady Navier–Stokes equations, under the ...

Recycling metal scrap is an effort to save The earth from pollution, meanwhile in the process of recycling usually it took a lot water cooling such high temperature. purpose this study was identified quality reservoir and river that indicated receiving overflow when rainy season. conducted October November 2020 at Melting Scrap Factory around industrial zone. by taking sample for analysis spot ...
