Characterizations of fatty acids composition in % of total methylester of fatty acids (FAMEs) of fourteen vegetable oils--safflower, grape, silybum marianum, hemp, sunflower, wheat germ, pumpkin seed, sesame, rice bran, almond, rapeseed, peanut, olive, and coconut oil--were obtained by using gas chromatography (GC). Saturated (SFA), monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA),...

The objective of this study is to analyze drought patterns in the Tano River Basin (TRB) Ghana using Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Reconnaissance Drought (RDI). data from 1981 2019 for TRB was accessed Climate Hazards Group InfraRed with Station (CHIRPS), extracted into time Series Python four locations within basin used analysis together National Aeronautics Space Administration (...

PURPOSE To evaluate the impact on survival of the relative dose intensity (RDI) achieved in patients with early breast cancer receiving anthracycline plus taxane-based chemotherapy in the adjuvant setting. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with early breast cancer diagnosed from January 1999 through December 2006 were included. Dose intensity was evaluated according to the number of delayed cycle...

In this study, drought analysis was carried out in the region, which includes Eastern Mediterranean, Seyhan, Ceyhan and Asi Basins located south of Turkey. total, data from 35 meteorological stations has been analyzed. As a index, Reconnaissance Drought Index (RDI) utilised. The Thornthwaite method selected calculation Potential Evapotranspiration (PET). According to results, PET values all hav...

Data from historical observatories and future simulations were analyzed using the representative concentration pathway (RCP) 8.5 scenario, which covered period 1951 to 2100. In order characterize drought, three widely used drought indicators used: standardized precipitation index (SPI), reconnaissance (RDI), evapotranspiration (SPEI). The ensemble of seven (7) GCMs that RCA-4 was able capture s...

Droughts have become more powerful and frequent, affecting people for longer periods than any other natural disaster, particularly in eastern Africa. The unprecedented climate change has increased the severity, duration, frequency of droughts. objectives this study were to evaluate performances different drought indices spatiotemporal characterization Bilate river watershed that represents part...
