Soil moisture has been shown in many studies to be an important variable in numerical weather prediction (NWP) systems [1, 2, 3]. In many regions of the world, soil moisture exerts an important control on land surface evaporation, and is thus a determining factor in the partitioning of downwelling radiative energy incident at the surface. This energy partitioning into sensible and latent heat s...

We propose a new wireless protocol, called the Adaptive Graph Partitioning Wireless Protocol, that dynamically partitions nodes into the available logical channels in such a manner so as to improve performance by balancing the intra-logical channel traffic between the available logical channels, and minimising the inter-logical channel traffic. We have simulated the performance of a simplified ...

BACKGROUND Gastric partitioning is a surgical procedure for the treatment of morbid obesity that may engender neurological complications, such as Wernicke encephalopathy and polyneuropathy. SETTING A specialist hospital. PATIENT A 36-year-old woman developed Wernicke-Korsakoff encephalopathy and polyneuropathy 3 months after gastroplasty for morbid obesity. A magnetic resonance scan documen...

Effects of different levels of cadmium (0.1, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256 mg/l of culture medium) were evaluated using gas production technique. In the glass vials used to measure gas production 30 mg of buffered rumen fluid (2:1 ratio of rumen fluid: buffer) poured in glass and cultured at 38.6 temperature. Volume and pressure of produced gas were measured with syringes and digital pressur...

For objects in general metric spaces, the generalized hyperplane indexing is one of the most widely used indexing techniques In the paper, some methods are presented to improve the quality of the partitioning in generalized hyperplane tree structure from the viewpoint of balancing factor. The proposed method to represent the elements in the target domain metric space is the usage of a distance ...

Partitioning is a very important task in hardware/software co-design. Generally the size of the edge cut-set is used to evaluate the communication cost. When communication between components is through buffered channels, the size of the edge cut-set is not adequate to estimate the buffer size. A second important factor to measure the quality of partitioning is the system delay. Most partitionin...

Background: Drought is a leading abiotic factor limiting groundnut production globally. Therefore, the screening and development of moisture stress tolerant genotypes key issue towards sustainable agriculture. Methods: An experiment was laid in split plot design taking two conditions, control (T1) (T2) as main treatments 7 sub treatments. Several morpho-physiological traits like dry matter prod...
