Ecosystem degradation leads to loss of interactions between animals and plants, and changes in frequency of pollination systems, dispersal modes and sexual systems of plants.The objective of the present work was to compare the reproductive ecological groups of tree species among semideciduous seasonal forests remnants in the Triangulo Mineiro, Braz
Since 1945 British governments, as a matter of official policy, have undertaken a number of military interventions against another sovereign state.Some interventions were justified on the grounds that they delivered United Nations Security Council Resolutions (UNSCR) whether through another international organization such as the North atlantic Trea
One of the most frequent accident scenario following a loss of containment during HazMat transportation or processing is represented by the dispersion of a dense gas release.Several dispersion models are available to this purpose, more or less rigorously accounting for gravity slumping, air entrainment and possible heat transfer.Under confined geom
Malignant gliomas, particularly glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) tumors, are very difficult to treat by conventional approaches.Although most of the tumor mass can be removed by surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, it eventually recurs.There is growing evidence that cancer stem cells (CSCs) play an important role in tumor Sport Jug recu
Research on the music-language interface has extensively investigated similarities and differences of poetic and musical meter, but largely disregarded melody.Using a measure of melodic structure in music--autocorrelations of sound sequences consisting of discrete pitch and duration values--, we show that individual poems feature distinct and text-
