Water-mediated ligand interactions are essential to biological processes, from product displacement in thymidylate synthase to DNA recognition by Trp repressor, yet the structural chemistry influencing whether bound water is displaced or participates in ligand binding is not well characterized. Consolv, employing a hybrid k-nearest-neighbors classifier/genetic algorithm, predicts bound water mo...

Geoecosystems of polar areas are particularly sensitive to climate change. The fluctuations of mean annual temperatures of Svalbard areas recorded for many years and progressing glacier recession indicate unequivocally that the Arctic areas strongly react to long-term weather and climate changes. Energy released in the form of proglacial waters contributes considerably to the transformation of ...

In many real world problems, data sometimes comes from n agents (n≥2), multipolar information exists. For issues that are associated with uncertainty, this information can not be showed with the values of crisp, fuzzy, intuitionistic or bipolar. Graph is one of the mathematical models widely used in different sciences. Ambiguity in a graph where data depends on the n parameter can not be showed...

UV radiation in the spectral region beyond ~320 nm is strongly absorbed by lithium niobate single crystals. The strong absorption and the consequent localized heating of the crystal triggers physical processes which can affect the state of the material not only by changing the refractive index, as shown in the past, but also by changing its ferroelectric disposition. UV laser irradiation of the...

Structural models are models for empirical work that have ‘deep’parameters that are invariant to changes in the economic environment. Structural modelling always involves theoretical modelling; my own feeling is that it is impossible to do good applied microeconometrics without also doing good theory. The polar extreme to structural modelling is quasi-experimental (or natural experiment) modell...

Multi baselinc rcpeat track interferometry (RTI) can potentially be uscd to measure both velocities and the micro topogra hy of glaciers. The Danish Center for Remote (DPC) has established a test cite for studies of glacier dynamics on the Storstreimmen glacier i n North East Greenland. DCRS has acquired RTI data over the glacier in 1994 and 1995 and ERS-112 tandem mode data are also available....
