Abstract:
This study examined leaf area index (LAI) and relationships with corresponding tree growth, climate and soil characteristics across New Zealand forest plantations. The aim of this study was to determine if quick measures of projected leaf area across environmental gradients of New Zealand were an accurate indicator of site quality. Projected leaf areas of Pinus radiata D Don and Cupressus lusitanica Mills seedlings were measured using a Li-Cor LAI-2000 plant canopy analyser at 22 locations representing the soil and climatic diversity across New Zealand plantation forests.

Abstract:
The rapidly expanding power system grid infrastructure and the need to reduce the occurrence of major blackouts and prevention or hardening of systems against cyber-attacks, have led to increased interest in the improved resilience of the electrical grid. Distributed and decentralized control have been widely applied to computer science research. However, for power system applications, the real-time application of decentralized and distributed control algorithms introduce several challenges.

Quando do encerramento do recebimento de resíduos sólidos urbanos (RSU) em uma área de lixão, usualmente é demandado pelo órgão ambiental a adoção de medidas mínimas de controle, como recobrimento, drenagem de chorume e coleta de gases. O monitoramento é exigido por longos períodos de tempo, sem que seja possível o uso do imóvel. Esta estratégia pode gerar descontinuidades urbanas, falhas no acompanhamento e ocupações irregulares. Uma abordagem alternativa seria a reutilização de tais áreas, devolvendo-as ao tecido urbano, aplicando-se as normas que estimulam a eficiência no uso de tais espaço

Abstract:
We consider a real analytic family of area-preserving maps on C2, fµ, depending analytically on the parameter, such that f0 is a map at 1:3 resonance. Such maps can be formally embedded in an one degree of freedom Hamiltonian system, called the normal form of the map. We denote the third iterate of the map by Fµ = f3µ. We show that given a certain non degeneracy condition on the map F0, there exists a Stokes constant, θ, that when it does not vanish, it describes the splitting of the separatrices that the normal form predicts. We show that this constant can be approximated numerically for any

A healthy human would be expected to show periodic blinks, making a brief closure of the eyelids. Most blinks are spontaneous, occurring regularly with no external stimulus. However a reflex blink can occur in response to external stimuli such as a bright light, a sudden loud noise, or an object approaching toward the eyes. A voluntary or forced blink is another type of blink in which the person deliberately closes the eyes and the lower eyelid raises to meet the upper eyelid. A complete blink, in which the upper eyelid touches the lower eyelid, contributes to the health of ocular surface b

Abstract:
Fotossíntese é o processo biofísico pelo qual energia luminosa é transformada em energia química armazenada em compostos de carbono. A taxa fotossintética instantânea possui um forte padrão assintótico em resposta ao incremento da intensidade luminosa, porém quando integramos a fotossíntese em escalas espaciais e temporais maiores, observa-se um padrão linear de resposta entre radiação interceptada e produção. Esta abordagem permitiu o surgimento de modelos baseados nas taxas de conversão de energia radiante em biomassa seca, ou eficiência do uso da luz (&epsilon;). Valores publicados para o E

Abstract:
Sustainable development of telecommunication network is related to the provisioning of new architectures and services aware of current and future needs of people. This reaserch work wants to analyze aspects related to the sustainable development in general and their relation with the telecommunication networks and services in order to help designing the Internet of the future. The first step has been related to a deep analysis on the sustainable development and the work carried on by the United Nations in the last few years. This concept has been enriched thanks to the work done by the Interne

In fact, the quality of life in big cities is directly affected by the drainage problems. In case of special areas, such as a closed watershed, the problems are increasing because in this sort of watershed there is not an outlet. This peculia

Abstract:
L esplosione del fenomeno dell antibiotico resistenza (AR) si configura come un fenomeno globale. Sebbene i batteri AR sia stati per lungo tempo esclusivamente associati ad ambienti ospedalieri e/o sanitari, nell ultimo decennio sono stati isolati sempre più frequentemente, in numerosi altri ambienti e persino negli alimenti. La diffusione dell antibiotico resistenza tra gli enterococchi, noti come patogeni nosocomiali, ha contribuito a innalzarne il rischio di colonizzazione e infezione, incrementandone l importanza clinica.

Abstract:
"Our modern society is increasingly relying on the collection, processing, and sharing of digital information. There are two fundamental trends: (1) Enabled by the rapid developments in sensor, wireless, and networking technologies, communication and networking are becoming more and more pervasive and ad hoc. (2) Driven by the explosive growth of hardware and software capabilities, computation power is becoming a public utility and information is often stored in centralized servers which facilitate ubiquitous access and sharing. Many emerging platforms and systems hinge on both dimensions, suc

Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2000.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: A thesis undertaken to quantify genotype-by-environment interaction within Eucalyptus grandis clones growing in the eastern portion of South Africa. Thirty one sites were selected to represent the "traditional" E. grandis growing areas of South Africa. Eleven common macro- site variables and twelve common micro- site soil variables were recorded at each site. Twenty seven E. grandis clones and four E. grandis hybrid clones were then evaluated over these 31 sites. An incomplete latin square design was used to evaluate the
