Abstract:
A review of the ecology of amphipods belonging to the superfamily Talitroidea (Crustacea, Amphipoda) is presented. Species of Talitroidea are characteristically able to hop by rapid flicks of the urosome. They include land hoppers, which are true land-inhabiting forms excluded from detailed consideration in this review, as well as aquatic Talitroidea. Aquatic Talitroidea are found throughout much of the world in freshwater, estuarine, and marine conditions in littoral and infralittoral habitats, and an ecological habitat classification is presented. Subjects discussed include taxonomy, life hi

Abstract:
The problem of increasing the irrigated lands productivity and ensuring sufficient reserves of minerals and nutrients for plants is noted to be important in the Republic of Uzbekistan. In practice, when preparing land for sowing cotton, wheat, soybeans and other crops, the application of mineral fertilizers is provided with the help of a chisel cultivator that has two separate hoppers for mineral fertilizers with a capacity of 50 kilograms each. It was revealed that large lumps of caked fertilizers remain in the hoppers, which reduces the productivity and quality of the unit. It was recommende

Research on legged robots has been going on for over a century. The reason behind such sustained interest in legged robots is due to the fact that most of the earth’s land surface is inaccessible to wheeled or tracked systems. Legged animals can, however, be found everywhere. Thus, mankind has been fascinated with the idea of a mobile legged robot that can handle difficult terrain and be

In this thesis I study the construction of a merger and acquisition (M & A) process through emotional antenarratives. This builds on recent research in the M & A field, which has called for a more thorough understanding of emotions during M & A processes. After reviewing current literature on emotions as well as emotions in M & A processes I point to a gap in understanding how emotional experiences, as present in the organisation, shape the M & A process over time. I suggest that a narrative perspective is particularly well suited to study emotional experiences present in the organisation sinc

The interpretations of the war of 1835 and the identity of the Fingo that were presented by the English settlers, have remained the mainstays of all subsequent histories. They asserted that the war of 1835 was the fault purely of 'Kaffir' aggression, that it was controlled by Hintza, the paramount chief, and that the ensuing hostilities were justifiable colonial defence and punishment of the Africans. The arrival of the Fingo in the Colony, it was claimed, was unconnected with the war. It was alleged that the seventeen thousand Fingo brought into the Colony in May 1835 were all Natal refugees

Sand will settle from this mixture. The shape of the under water body is governed by the dynamic settling process from a (sometimes highly concentrated) density current.

Abstract:
Increased fuel costs have created a strong incentive for gas turbine operators to understand, minimize and control performance deterioration. The most prevalent deterioration problem faced by gas turbine operators is compressor fouling. Fouling causes a drop in airflow, pressure ratio and compressor efficiency, resulting in a “re-matching” of the gas turbine and compressor and a drop in power output and thermal efficiency. This paper addresses the causes and effects of fouling and provides a comprehensive treatment of the impact of salient gas turbine design parameters on the susceptibility an

Abstract:
The understanding of global climate change, agriculture resilience, and deforestation control rely on the timely observations of the Land Use and Land Cover Change (LULCC). Recently, some deep learning (DL) methods have been adapted to make an automatic classification of Land Cover (LC) for one season-homogeneous data. However, most of these DL models can not apply effectively to real-world data. i.e. a large number of classes, multi-seasonal data, diverse climate regions, high imbalance label dataset, and medium spatial resolution. In this work, we present a novel lightweight (only 89k parame

Abstract:
The gas turbine system GRAZ CYCLE has been thoroughly studied in terms of thermodynamics and turbomachinery layout. What is to be presented here is a prototype design for an industrial size plant, suited for NG-fuel and coal and heavy fuel oil gasification products, capable to retain the CO2 from combustion and at the same time able to achieve maximum thermal efficiency. The authors hope for an international cooperation to make such a plant available within a few years.

Abstract:
There are numerous power generation and mechanical drive gas turbine applications where the power drop caused by high ambient temperatures has a very detrimental effect on the production of power or process throughput. Media evaporative cooling and inlet fogging are common low cost power augmentation techniques applied to reduce these losses. Several misconceptions exist regarding the applicability of evaporative cooling to what are often called “high humidity” regions. There is a sizable evaporative cooling potential in most locations when climatic data is evaluated based on an analysis of co

Abstract:
The dynamic state of the land surface presents challenges and opportunities for military and civil operations in extreme cold environments. In particular, the effects of snow and frozen ground on Soldier and vehicle mobility are hard to overstate. Current authoritative weather and land models are run at global scales (i.e., dx &gt; 10 km) and are of limited use at the Soldier scale (dx &lt; 100 m). Here, we describe several snow physics upgrades made to the Noah-Multiparameterization (Noah-MP) community land surface model (LSM). These upgrades include a blowing snow overlay to simulate the lat

Abstract:
Restoring wildlife populations requires locating, protecting, and connecting areas where species can thrive under both ecological and anthropological conditions. Addressing these spatial needs may be difficult, as required habitats may have been lost, fragmented, or altered prior to restoration. Changes in land use may also lead to increased human-animal interactions that impact restoration outcomes. In this exercise, students consider these issues in a case study of Florida panthers (Puma concolor coryi), a currently federally protected carnivore that has a growing population in the state of

Forest ecologists have developed a more complete understanding of the ecological impacts of traditional forest management practices and the need to integrate knowledge of structure-biodiversity linkage into modern management techniques. This has led to the development of forest ecosystem management (FEM), which has been adapted by various public and private land managers, in hopes to improve the ecological conditions of the world’s forests. This module provides a review of the history of forest management and silviculture systems leading to the developing of FEM. In addition, the process of ad

Tide gauges can capture sea level variability on multiple timescales, from high frequency events like waves, tides and tsunamis, to seasonal and interannual changes and the longer-term trends associated with Climate Change. However, financial constraints dictate that they are often maintained to lower standards than the stringent accuracy requirements demanded by the IOC-UNESCO’s Global Sea Level Observing System (GLOSS) for monitoring sea level rise.

Abstract:
Faced with environmental degradation and strong land pressure, farmers in south-central Niger have intensified their agricultural production systems. Since the 1980s, farmers in the regions of Zinder, Maradi and Tahoua have increased the number of trees and shrubs on their fields, creating new agroforestry parklands over about 5 million hectares. This regreening is not based on tree planting, however, but on farmers protecting and managing natural regeneration of woody species on their crop lands. This has been well documented over the years, but until now, there has not been a thorough review

Through a frame analysis, we gained a clearer understanding of potential approaches for farmland protection in Idaho.

Abstract:
Chile's housing policy is widely regarded as a success. For almost a decade, new construction has been above the level required to provide houses for new families and replace obsolete structures. This raises hopes that within the next decade all families in Chile will occupy dwellings that comply with minimum quality and service standards. This is no small accomplishment for a country just entering the middle ground in the development scale. Moreover, the private sector is taking an increasingly active role in housing production and financing. This too is a significant achievement considering
