Fasting is a common practice among people with diabetes (PWD). As healthcare providers we are in a position to assist those who choose to fast to manage their diabetes effectively. Diabetes self-management education for PWD is needed both prior and during the time of fasting to best metabolic control.  

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has been an active research topic in the last decade. In this paper we proposed an image retrieval method using global and local features. Firstly, for local features extraction, SURF algorithm produces a set of interest points for each image and a set of 64-dimensional descriptors for each interest points and then to use Bag of Visual Words model, a cluster...

Weak trophic interactions have been shown to promote the stability of ecological food webs characterized by perfect mixing. However, their importance at the landscape level and response to enrichment has not been extensively examined. In this paper we examine the food-web model explored by McCann et al. [1998. Weak trophic interactions and the balance of nature. Nature 395, 794-798]. The model ...

   Scientists are interested in find out “how to use living resources without damaging the ecosystem at the same time?” from nineteen century because the living resources are limited. Thus, the harvested rate is used as the control parameters. Moreover, the study of harvested population dynamics is more realistic.    In the present paper, some predator-prey models in which two ecologically inte...

during recent years, a series of climate projections provided for surface temperature increase and precipitation changes over the next century in various time slices. national institutes are using downscaling projections for more precise results. in this research study, various climate change projections in global, continental, regional and local scales have been examined in special forest ecos...
