It has been suggested that we do not know within an order of magnitude the number of all species on Earth [May RM (1988) Science 241(4872):1441-1449]. Roughly 1.5 million valid species of all organisms have been named and described [Costello MJ, Wilson S, Houlding B (2012) Syst Biol 61(5):871-883]. Given Kingdom Animalia numerically dominates this list and virtually all terrestrial vertebrates ...

Stormwater management infrastructure is utilized in urban areas to alleviate flooding caused by decreased landscape permeability from increased impervious surface cover (ISC) construction. In this study, we examined two types of stormwater detention basins, SDB-BMPs (stormwater detention basin-best management practice), and SDB-FCs (stormwater detention basin-flood control). Both are constructe...

We present an efficient endomorphism for the Jacobian of a curve C of genus 2 for divisors having a Non disjoint support. This extends the work of Costello in [12] who calculated explicit formulæ for divisor doubling and addition of divisors with disjoint support in JF(C) using only base field operations. Explicit formulæ is presented for this third case and a different approach for divisor dou...

Cenderitide (CD-NP), a novel peptide designed to activate both guanylyl cyclase B and A, activates the second messenger cGMP, suppresses aldosterone, and preserves GFR without reducing blood pressure in a proof-of-concept study in patients with chronic heart failure Lisa C Costello-Boerrigter, John A Schirger, Wayne L Miller, Guido Boerrigter, Horng H Chen, Ruth Kempf, Candace Y Lee, John C Bur...

sedimentation in reservoirs reduces dams storage and makes many problems in their operation. therefore accurate computation of sediment volume is essential for appropriate design and optimum reservoir management during its operation. in this research long term field data of sefid-rood dam were used to check the sediment volume computed for ghezelozan basin. the computed volume of sediment by ra...
