SUMMARYThe patterns of N uptake and dry matter synthesis by sugarcane (Saccharum hybrid spp.) were studied at four locations in Mauritius with 15N–labelled ammonium sulphate (100 kg N/ha) applied either in a single dressing in September or in two split applications in September and the following February. More than 80% of the total N recovered at harvest (100–120 kgN/ha) was absorbed by the sugarcane during an active uptake period from October to January. Split application prolonged this active N uptake until April only and had no effect on dry matter accumulation. While total Nabsorbed by abo

Abstract:
Measurements of indoor radon concentrations and environmental parameters were collected continuously on an hourly basis over a three-month period (April 2012 to June 2012). These were performed both in a well-ventilated ground floor laboratory and in the unventilated basement directly below it in a two-storey building at the University of Michigan, USA. The diurnal variations of indoor radon concentration were investigated along with their correlations to the environmental parameters. The results showed that in the laboratory with typical air exchange, the highest radon values appeared in the

Abstract:
Background Kettlebell lifting has gained increased popularity as both a form of resistance training and as a sport, despite the paucity of literature validating its use as a training tool. Kettlebell sport requires participants to complete the kettlebell snatch continuously over prolonged periods of time. Kettlebell sport and weightlifting involve similar exercises, however, their traditional uses suggest they are better suited to training different fitness qualities.

Abstract:
This study aims to address the problem that loose damage of the pavement base course cannot currently be quantitatively identified, and thus the classification and recognition of the extent of looseness mainly rely on empirical judgments. Based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method, a backpropagation (BP) neural network identification method for loose damage of a semirigid base is presented. The FDTD method is used to simulate a semirigid base road model numerically with different degrees of looseness, and the eigenvalue parameters for recognition of the presence and extent of the

Here we asked whether we can induce adaptation of a specific walking pattern when one limb does not “walk” but instead marches in place (i.e., marching-walking hybrid).

Abstract:
Abstract Orthopedic walking boots (OWB) are an alternative to casting and immobilizing an injured ankle. Unfortunately, OWB causes a change in leg-length and pelvis angle which alters gait and postural stability and can lead to chronic back pain. Immobilizing the ankle without changing leg-length would be beneficial, especially for individuals with impaired gait and postural stability. The purpose of this study was to assess level-ground walking and stair negotiation in healthy older adults across three ankle support conditions (1) OWB, (2) TayCo ankle brace (TAB) and (3) athletic footwear (SH

Abstract Landslides are major natural hazards occurring in opencast mining. The problem of slope stability failure in the existing open pit mines as well as in those which are at a stage of technical closure is current issue in Poland and all over the world. This problem requires conducting in-depth and meaningful analysis which will identify the causes of processes characterized by a very rapid course and large extent.

In order to understand the factors influencing the isotopic composition of air above and within plant canopies, equations quantifying the effects of photosynthesis, respiration and turbulent transport on the isotopic composition of the surrounding CO2 are developed. These equations are then extended to the regional scale, allowing the average isotopic composition of CO2 within the convective boundary layer to be related to the isotopic composition of tropospheric CO2, and to isotopic fractionations during ecosystem carbon exchange. Equations presented have the potential to be inverted, allowin

In many languages, fundamental frequency shows a marked decrease utterance-finally or phrase-finally. Ladefoged (1982) generalises that ‘in nearly all languages the completion of a grammatical unit such as a normal sentence is signaled by a falling pitch’. Bolinger (1978) also writes that ‘the most widely diffused intonational phenomenon seems to be the tendency to “go down at the end”’. These sorts of abrupt decreases which affect only the end of the utterance (known as FINAL LOWERING) are distinct from gradual decreases in fundamental frequency over the course of the entire utterance (known

Instagram infographics are a digital activism tool that have redefined action frames for technology-facilitated social movements. From the 1960s through the 1980s, United States ethnic movements practiced collective action: ideologically unified, resource-intensive activism. Researchers have argued that modern technologically mediated movements, in contrast, practice connective action: individualized, low-resource online activism. We argue that Instagram infographics are both connective and collective. We conducted a qualitative interview study juxtaposing the insights of past and present U.S.
