Soil fauna communities and microbial activities response to litter and soil properties under degraded and restored forests of Hyrcania

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2021
Reforestation has long been the best practice to restore degraded forests due to human interventions. In this paper we investigated the effect of forest degradation (DNF) along with reforestation using 4 endemic species (Alnus subcordata, ASP; Acer ...

On Converting CNF to DNF

BRICS Report Series, 2003
We study how big the blow-up in size can be when one switches between the CNF and DNF representations of boolean functions. For a function f : {0,1}^n -> {0,1}, cnfsize(f) denotes the minimum number of clauses in a CNF for f; similarly, dnfsize(f) denotes the minimum number of terms in a DNF for f.

Enhanced BDNF Actions Following Acute Hypoxia Facilitate HIF-1α-Dependent Upregulation of Cav3-T-Type Ca²⁺ Channels in Rat Cardiomyocytes

Membranes, 2021
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has recently been recognized as a cardiovascular regulator particularly in the diseased condition, including coronary artery disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, and hypertension.

Ocean dinitrogen fixation and its potential effects on ocean primary production in Earth system model simulations of anthropogenic warming

Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2018
Dinitrogen fixation (DNF) provides a large fraction of the ‘new’ nitrogen supporting upper ocean productivity, and is associated with environmental conditions likely to show substantial change under anthropogenic warming.

Intra‐Operative Neurophysiological Monitoring in Patients with Thoracic Spinal Stenosis: Its Feasibility and High‐Risk Factors for New Neurological Deficit

Orthopaedic Surgery, 2023
Objective Considering the high risk of postoperative neurological complications for patients with thoracic spinal stenosis (TSS), intra‐operative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) has been used for detecting possible iatrogenic injury timely. However,

Dissimilatory nitrate reduction processes in surface sediments of shrimp ponds during the culture period

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Intensive aquaculture in estuaries and coasts has resulted in several ecological and environmental problems. Among various nitrogen transformation pathway, dissimilatory nitrate (NO3-) reduction is considered to be highly important in regulating reactive

Transcription factor NF-Y is involved in differentiation of R7 photoreceptor cell in Drosophila

Biology Open, 2011
Summary The CCAAT motif-binding factor NF-Y consists of three different subunits, NF-YA, NF-YB and NF-YC. Knockdown of Drosophila NF-YA (dNF-YA) in eye discs with GMR-GAL4 and UAS-dNF-YAIR resulted in a rough eye phenotype and monitoring of ...

Learning Random Monotone DNF

Discrete Applied Mathematics, 2008
Learning polynomial-time disjunctive normal formulas from random samples is an open problem in learning theory, even with the uniform distribution. A special case is to learn monotone disjunctive normal formulas under the uniform distribution, which is the topic considered in this paper. By studying Fourier properties of monotone functions, the authors
