Mobility of dissolved organic matter (DOM) strongly affects the export of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) from soils to surface waters. To study the sorption and mobility of dissolved organic C and P (DOC, DOP) in soil, the pH-dependent sorption of DOM to samples from Ap, EB, and Bt horizons from a Danish agricultural Humic Hapludult was investigated and a kinetic model applicable in field-scal...

Aim. The incidence of diabetic osteoporosis (DOP) is increasing due to lack of effective management over the past few decades. This review aims to summarize traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) suitability in the pathogenesis and clinical and preclinical management of DOP. Methods. Literature sources used were from Medline (Pubmed), CNKI (China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database), and CSTJ (C...

We present an investigation into parsing the Penn Chinese Treebank using a DataOriented Parsing (DOP) approach. DOP comprises an experience-based approach to natural language parsing. Most published research in the DOP framework uses PStrees as its representation schema. Drawbacks of the DOP approach centre around issues of efficiency. We incorporate recent advances in DOP parsing techniques in...

DOP: delusions of parasitosis ER: emergency room INTRODUCTION Delusions of parasitosis (DOP), a disorder in which patients have a fixed belief that they are infested without evidence, is often a very difficult condition to manage. There are many organic causes of DOP that are potentially reversible. We present a case of DOP secondary to severe anemia. The authors could not find any other case i...

This paper describes the use of a multiple codebook SCHMM speaker verification system, which uses a novel technique for discriminative hidden Markov modelling known as discriminative observation probabilities (DOP). DOP can easily be added to a multiple codebook HMM system and require minimal additional computation and no additional training. The DOP technique can be applied to both speech and ...

A spontaneous neurological mutation, dilute-opisthotonus (dop), was discovered in our breeding colony of Wistar rats. We found that the mutation affected the gene encoding Myosin Va (MyoVA), an actin-based molecular motor. Analysis of the myosin Va (Myo5a) gene of the dop genome showed the presence of a complex rearrangement consisting of a 306-bp inversion associated with 217-bp and 17-bp dele...

The constructionist approach to language has long proven its merits as a theoretical framework guiding linguistic observations. However, relatively little work has been dedicated to providing a precise, formalized definition of constructions and the mechanisms by means of which they are acquired. In giving an overview of recent work in Data-Oriented Parsing (DOP), we show how the theoretical de...

Tannic acid-templated mesoporous silica (TAMS) was synthesized using a simple nonsurfactant template method and dopamine-functionalized TAMS (Dop-TAMS), which was prepared via a biomimetic coating, was developed as a new support for immobilization of NHase (NHase@Dop-TAMS). The Dop-TAMS was thoroughly characterized by the transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM...

Forty female Angora goats were selected at random from the experimental nucleus of the National Institute of Agricultural Technology (Pilcaniyeu, Argentina), with the aim of analyzing the variability of main fleece characteristics of the Angora goats and establishing an optimum sampling site. Samples were taken at the first and second shearings (12 and 18 months of age) from the following parts...
