whereas there is an exact linear relation between the wiener indices of kenograms and plerograms of isomeric alkanes, the respective terminal wiener indices exhibit a completely different behavior: correlation between terminal wiener indices of kenograms and plerograms is absent, but other regularities can be envisaged. in this article, we analyze the basic properties of terminal wiener indices...

Diversity estimates play a key role in ecological assessments. Species richness and abundance are commonly used to generate complex diversity indices that are dependent on the quality of these estimates. As such, there is a long-standing interest in the development of monitoring techniques, their ability to adequately assess species diversity, and the implications for generated indices. To dete...

Rangeland ploughing and cultivation using dry land farming crops may be amajor reason for the destruction of natural resources in the semiarid and sub-humid regionswhich may significantly change the composition and reduce the stability of the affectedcommunities. In present research, an abandoned ploughed site was compared with a nearbyreference site in the semiarid rangelands of Baharkish, Quc...

gradual decrease of biodiversity related to the rapid industrialization and urbanization is stimulating the fundamental research towards a better understanding of the relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. present study emphasizes the nature and status of floral diversity in the vicinity of integrated industrial estate-pantnagar, uttarakhand, india (iie-pantnagar).three m...

the padmakar-ivan (pi) index is a first-generation topological index (ti) based on sums overall edges between numbers of edges closer to one endpoint and numbers of edges closer to theother endpoint. edges at equal distances from the two endpoints are ignored. an analogousdefinition is valid for the wiener index w, with the difference that sums are replaced byproducts. a few other tis are discu...
