Antibiotic resistance has been considered a major human health threat that may endanger the success of medicine. Recent studies have unveiled worldwide asymmetries antibiotic occurrence, being factors as diverse climate, socioeconomic, or use possible drivers such asymmetric distribution. In Europe, where clinical is surveyed for more than 20 years, European Center Disease Prevention and Contro...

Adults of the tomato stink bug, Arvelius albopunctatus (De Geer), from pasture lands at Londrina, Paraná state (latitude 23º 18' S; longitude 51º 09' W) and of Dichelops furcatus (F.) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) from field crops at Cruz Alta, Rio Grande do Sul state (latitude 28º 38' S; longitude) southern Brazil were parasitized by Hexacladia smithii Ashmead , which are set as new host records...

We present a technique for creating a longitude-resolved image of Jupiter’s thermal radio emission. The technique has been applied to VLA data taken on 25 January 1996 at a wavelength of 2 cm. A comparison with infrared data shows a good correlation between radio hot spots and the 5 μm hot spots seen on IRTF images. The brightest spot on the radio image is most likely the hot spot through which...

Alignment of latitude and longitude for all pixels is important for geo-stationary meteorological satellite (GSMS) images. To align landmarks and non-landmarks in the GSMS images, we propose a geometry-based global alignment method. Firstly, the Global Self-consistent, Hierarchical, High-resolution Geography (GSHHG) database and GSMS images are expressed as feature maps by geometric coding. Acc...

OSSE has measured the galactic longitude distribution of both the 511 keV annihilation line radiation and the three-photon positronium continuum within 40 of the center. They have similar shapes, with a composite longitude distribution well represented by an 11 FWHM Gaussian central bulge together with a possible broad disk component comprising as much as 15% of the integral ux between 40 and 3...

On 9 th of March 1500, Portuguese expeditionary team of thirteen ships, after departing Lisbon, discovered Brazil soon on 22 nd of April 1500. Brazil was then called “Terra de Santa Cruz” and was announced a Portuguese colony. As the Portuguese colonists began plundering with the cutting Brazilwood, the word “Brazil” gradually replaced “Terra de Santa Cruz” and became the name of the nation up ...

Currently, most operational forecasting models use latitude–longitude grids, whose convergence of meridians toward the poles limits parallel scaling. Quasi-uniform grids might avoid this limitation. Thuburn et al. and Ringler et al. have developed a method for arbitrarily structured, orthogonal C grids called TRiSK, which has many of the desirable properties of the C grid on latitude–longitude ...

An improved measurement of the composite 0.05 to 10 MeV gamma-ray spectra as a function of longitude from the inner galactic ridge has been made using the Oriented Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment (OSSE) on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. The continuum appears to be a composite of 3 independent components. A strong positron annihilation contribution is observed toward the center with an...
