Electrical imaging of tracer tests can provide valuable information on the spatial variability of solute transport processes. This concept was investigated by cross-borehole electrical imaging of a controlled release in an experimental tank. A saline Ž 3 . Ž . tracer conductivity 8=10 msrm volume 270 l was injected into a tank facility dimensions 10=10=3 m consisting of alternating sand and cla...

Continuous cultures of Skeletonema costatum, Chaetoceros muelleri, Rhinomonas reticulata and PaÕloÕa lutheri were subjected to phosphorus or nitrogen limitation at two light intensities in order to manipulate their biochemical composition. They were then fed to Mytilus edulis larvae over a 2-week period, and the larval growth and mortality were assessed. All monospecific diets supported growth,...

  The main purpose of this study is to estimate the maritime transportation elasticities of the environmental pollution and economic growth in Iran within the short-run and long-run to find out the relationships among maritime transportation, environmental pollution and economic growth. The lagged endogenous model (a dynamic log-linear model that we used) is estimated using two distinctive ...

The effect of temperature, pH and electrolytes on the stability of two Mediterranean sea bass Ž . neuropathy nodavirus isolates SBNN and the inactivation of SBNN by heating, exposure to ultraviolet radiation and chemical disinfectants was investigated in vitro using a striped snakehead Ž . fish cell line SSN-1 for virus propagation and assay. The two nodavirus isolates showed no significant dif...

We recently reported the translocation of the immunoglobulin (Ig) light chain κ locus gene with a possible tumor suppressor gene, TFL, in transformed follicular lymphoma. However, the functional significance in cell transformation remains to be elucidated. Here, we first identified two gene products, P58 and P36, derived by alternative splicing. The expressionwasprominent in normal human lympho...

Statistical literacy is a new goal for statistical educators. A core element of statistical literacy for consumers is the ability to read and interpret data in the tables and graphs published by national statistical offices. A core element for producers is the ability to create tables, graphs and reports that are unambiguous and comprehensible. It appears that comprehensibility is not considere...
