Abstract Although natural habitats are being lost globally, the extent and fate of on private lands in United States have not been quantified at resolution relevant for conservation planning. Here we provide information locations risk loss areas vegetation cover (NVC) across northwestern to motivate discussion needs opportunities slow their loss. Specific questions were as follows: (1) Where re...

Medial movements of the lateral pharyngeal wall at the level of the velopharyngeal port were examined by using a computerized ultrasound system. Subjects produced CVNVC sequences involving all combinations of the vowels /a/ and /u/ and the nasal consonants /n/ and /m/. The effects of both vowels on the CVN and NVC gestures (opening and closing of the velopharyngeal port, respectively) were asse...

Assimilation nasality patterns for high, mid and low vowels were studied in two dialects of North American English (Canadian & southeastern American). Native speakers (n=24) produced CVC, NVC, CVN and NVN tokens. The vowel portion of each oral and nasal acoustical signal was transduced by a Nasometer, digitized, and the degree of nasalance established as: % nasalance = nasal rms/(nasal + oral r...

Th is study employed pretestposttest experimental group design to study the impact of vipassana at Nepal Vipassana center(NVC) on anxiety and depression of students taking the course for the first time. Th irty one subjects (students) were studied. Vipassana is found to be effective to reduce the severity of depressive symptoms significantly (p=0.001). Vipassana could be the option for treating...

Communication between players in networked computer games is often inadequately implemented. The games do not exploit the full potential of using different forms of communication possibilities between players, and therefore result in problems in sending and receiving messages. This paper introduces a model that describes how visual aspects of non-verbal communication (NVC) in avatars could be s...

There is an increasing trend in construction for using recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) concrete, which a more sustainable approach reducing natural resource consumption. One typical method developing environmentally friendly structures to partially substitute aggregate. limited studies investigated the use of in-situ tests assess compressive strength concrete made with RCAs. In this study, ultr...
