This study aimed to differentiate the effects of repeated antecedent hypoglycemia, antecedent marked hyperinsulinemia, and antecedent increases in corticosterone on counterregulation to subsequent hypoglycemia in normal rats. Specifically, we examined whether exposure to hyperinsulinemia or elevated corticosterone per se could impair subsequent counterregulation. Four groups of male Sprague-Daw...

This study evaluates a range of scenarios to reduce soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) losses using the surface runoff transport model (Surphos) simulate application liquid manure (slurry) grassland catchments. Surphos was applied data from two contrasting sites in Republic Ireland and Northern Ireland. It explored that investigated changes timing slurry applications, based both on policy (i.e. ...

language is a system and every system has rules that govern the structure of its vocabulary. the rules of the arabic language are based on the vowels that consistent with the meanings used in the context represent the words' position. there are some basic rules in addition to vowels which are mostly seen in the written texts. one of these rules is the matching rule that refers to the condi...

The NRCS-CN method, integrated with GIS and remote sensing, can be used for estimating curve numbers (CN) surface runoff in geohydrological systems. study area is divided into 63 sub-basins, the land use cover (LULC)-hydrologic soil group (HSG) complex identified each sub-basin. CN values three antecedent moisture (AMC) conditions are calculated corrected slope variations. depth determined usin...

This paper presents a constraint-based multiagent strategy to coreference resolution of general noun phrases in unrestricted English text. For a given anaphor and all the preceding referring expressions as the antecedent candidates, a common constraint agent is first presented to filter out invalid antecedent candidates using various kinds of general knowledge. Then, according to the type of th...

Throughfall makes up the major portion of understory rainfall, and thereby plays a vital role in regulating hydrological biogeochemical processes forest ecosystems. The aim this study was to explore alterations throughfall associated chemical composition (Ca2+, Na2+, K+, Mg2+, H+, SO42−, NO3−, Cl−, F−) under Quercus acutissima Carruth. Broussonetia papyrifera (L.) L’Her. ex Vent. trees, relatio...

bone chisel. Intriguing in the latter context is the mention of "instrumentists" (organikoi) (e.g. pp. 60ff, 158), whose activities as technicians were sometimes the subject of criticism by medical writers, since, on occasion, their quest to perfect surgical tools seems to have taken precedence over the best interest of the patient. Their inventiveness may, perhaps, be seen, too, in certain par...

Ellipsis Interpreting a verb-phrase ellipsis (VP ellipsis) requires accessing an antecedent in memory, and then integrating a representation of this antecedent into the local context. This problem was investigated in 4 speed-accuracy trade-off and 2 eye-tracking experiments. To investigate whether the antecedent for a VP ellipsis is accessed with a search or direct-access retrieval process, Exp...
