A visual-world eye-tracking experiment investigated the influence of order of mention and grammatical role on resolution of ambiguous pronouns in Finnish. According to the first-mention account, general cognitive structure-building processes make the firstmentioned noun phrase the preferred antecedent of an ambiguous pronoun. According to the subject-preference account, the preferred antecedent...

Abstract The Penman-Monteith equation is recommended for the estimation of reference evapotranspiration (ETo). However, it requires meteorological data that are commonly unavailable. Thus, this study evaluates artificial neural network (ANN), multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS), and original calibrated Hargreaves-Samani (HS) temperature (PMT) equations daily ETo using temperature. T...

introduction saffron (crocus sativus l.) is a subtropical plant mostly cultivated in south khorasan and khorasan razavi provinces, iran. total saffron production is about 200 ton all over the world, and since it is native to iran, the country has an important role to produce saffron. in recent years, drought showed a significant effect on water resources in birjand, south khorasan. due to lack ...

This study extends the investigation of quasi-periodic ripples in F-region electron content reported by Birch and Hargreaves (2020a) to determine their flow velocity wavelength, using data from EISCAT Svalbard radars (the 42m antenna being field-aligned 32m scanning a circular pattern at fixed angle field). The were extracted between altitudes 213 389 km noon midnight sectors bandpass filter wh...

Algunas de las consecuencias del cambio climático se manifestarán en variaciones temporales y espaciales la precipitación un incremento demanda evaporativa atmósfera, lo que a su vez propiciará riego cultivos agrícolas. En este trabajo analizó variación temporal los requerimientos agroclimáticos (RRa) para maíz el DR001 Pabellón, Aguascalientes, así como periodo crecimiento térmico (PCT) con in...

Abstract The potential evapotranspiration is considered as an important element of the hydrological cycle, which plays role in agricultural studies, management plans irrigation and drainage networks, hydraulic structures. Estimating reference particular climatic regions at different time scales, one most atmospheric parameters, a importance optimal use resources. series analysis method, GARCH m...

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, school districts, and specifically, superintendents, are under increased pressure lead. Irregularity ambiguity now mantras of those tasked with leading in our schools. Many current research studies aim evaluate possible effects on system education (Azorín, 2020; Hargreaves & Fullan, 2020), advice how lead during a crisis (Harris Jones, Leithwood et al., 2020, Netol...

The combined impacts of woody plant encroachment and climate variability have the potential to alter water balance in many sagebrush steppe ecosystems Western USA, leading reduced availability these already water-scarce regions. This study compared water-balance characteristics two adjacent semiarid watersheds central Oregon, USA: one dominated by big western juniper. Precipitation, springflow,...

Mid-career teachers are often described as experienced and comfortable in their jobs with higher motivation self-efficacy (Hargreaves 2005); yet, at the same time, mid-career phase has also been portrayed a period marked by career plateau feelings of stagnation (Farrell 2014). Despite criticality this paradoxical research findings, teachers' lives have rarely examined in-depth (Day Gu 2010). Th...

Abstract. We present a new reconstruction of surface air temperature and sea for the Last Glacial Maximum. The method blends model fields sparse proxy-based point estimates through data assimilation approach. Our updates that Annan Hargreaves (2013), using full range general circulation (GCM) simulations which contributed to three generations PMIP database, major compilations gridded (SST) (SAT...
