We report on a research effort aiming at the development of an acoustic bird activity detector (ABAD), which plays an important role for automating traditional biodiversity assessment studies – presently performed by human experts. The proposed on-line ABAD is considered an integral part of an automated system for acoustic identification of bird species, which is currently under development. In...

A topological duality for monadic n-valued Lukasiewicz algebras introduced by M. Abad (Abad, M.: Estructuras cíclica y monádica de un álgebra de Lukasiewicz nvalente. Notas de Lógica Matemática 36. Instituto de Matemática. Universidad Nacional del Sur, 1988) is determined. When restricted to the category of Q-distributive lattices and Q-homomorphims, it coincides with the duality obtained by R....

reproductive performance and life expectancy of the two-spotted spider mite (tssm), tetranychus urticae koch were determined on seven eggplant cultivars (isfahan, dezful, shend-abad, neishabour, bandar-abbas, jahrom and borazjan) at 25 ± 1°c, 60 ± 5% r.h. and a photoperiod of 16:8 (l:d) hours. the results revealed that the tssm gross hatch rate varied from 59% on bandar-abbas to 83% on dezful. ...

different types of soil erosion including gully erosion occur in many parts of iran. the west of iran is further threatened by gully erosion due to its specific physical and climatic conditions. however, few studies have been carried out to study the sediment production of gully erosion in iran. this research was therefore conducted to measure storm-wise sediment production of gully erosion in ...

It is well established that the intracellular accumulation of Aβ (amyloid β-peptide) is associated with AD (Alzheimer's disease) and that this accumulation is toxic to neurons. The precise mechanism by which this toxicity occurs is not well understood; however, identifying the causes of this toxicity is an essential step towards developing treatments for AD. One intracellular location where the...
