This research concerns the identification of a pattern between occurrence extreme weather conditions, such as cold waves and heat waves, hospitalization for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), in University Hospital Santa Maria (HUSM) southern Brazil 2012 2017. The employed field experiment method to measure biometeorological parameters associated with hospital admissions different seasons, during ...

Abstract A fundamental understanding of droplet dynamics is important for the prediction and optimization technical systems involving drops sprays. The Collaborative Research Center (CRC) SFB-TRR 75 was established in January 2010 to focus on basic drop processes, particular processes extreme ambient conditions, example near thermodynamic critical at very low temperatures, under influence stron...

Introduction: Biodegradation of azo dyes under harsh environmental conditions has been of great interest for the treatment of colored effluents. The present study aims to evaluate Klebsiella quasipneumoniae GT7 for degrading azo dye Carmoisine under extreme pH conditions and high salinity. Materials and Methods: The growth profiles of bacteria were compared under different conditions of salini...

Single Point Mooring (SPM) is a type of offshore facility that is used for the loading and unloading of oil and gas tankers in the sea. In Iran, it is briefly called “floating buoy”. The present study discussed floating type, fixed to the seabed with mooring chain. The mooring chain of SPM, which is considered one of the important parameters of its design, will be evaluated with reg...

Abstract It is well-known that the morphology of urban areas modifies variations climate variables at microscale; known as microclimate conditions. The complexity can lead to undesired wind conditions or excessive air temperature; particularly in extreme weather This study attempts quantify impacts on evolution speed and temperature canopy layer using Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulatio...

In the present study, the potential of a bacterial consortium of Enterobacter cloacae and Pseudomonas sp. (ERCPPI-2) for microbial enhanced oil recovery was investigated. Various mechanisms of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) as a result of using ERCPPI-2 and its metabolic products were studied in detail. The obtained results showed that under simulated reservoir ...

Attractive candidates for compartmentalizing prebiotic cells are membranes comprised of single-chain fatty acids. It is generally believed that life may have originated in the depth of the protoocean, that is, under high hydrostatic pressure conditions, but the structure and physical-chemical properties of prebiotic membranes under such conditions have not yet been explored. We report the tempe...
