Evaluating the quality of riparian forest vegetation: the Riparian Forest Evaluation (RFV) index

open access: yesForest Systems, 2014
Aim of study: This paper presents a novel index, the Riparian Forest Evaluation (RFV) index, for assessing the ecological condition of riparian forests. The status of riparian ecosystems has global importance due to the ecological and social benefits and

EXPERIMENTAL THYROIDISM [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 1898
From the results of the various experiments already detailed I feel justified in drawing the following conclusions: (1) Absolutely fresh thyroid gland is not poisonous, in the usual sense of the term, when absorbed through the alimentary canal.

Weather-Routing System Based on METOC Navigation Risk Assessment

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
This paper presents a novel weather-routing system based on a multi-criteria setup. The set of 3 conflicting criteria is: travel time, ship navigation added resistance (caused by wind and waves), and navigation risk/safety. To this aim, the International

experimental tectonophysics

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1981
Because virtually all tectonophysical processes are masked by the overburden, or occur too slowly for adequate observation in anthropocentric time, or both, they must be studied in carefully controlled laboratory experiments that simulate the natural environment as realistically as is practicable. Extrapolations of laboratory data in space and time are
