Unveiling New Perspectives on the Hirota–Maccari System With Multiplicative White Noise
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this study, we delve into the stochastic Hirota–Maccari system, which is subjected to multiplicative noise according to the Itô sense. The stochastic Hirota–Maccari system is significant for its ability to accurately model how stochastic affects nonlinear wave propagation, providing valuable insights into complex systems like fluid dynamics

Pulses and likelihood of Fúquene Lagoon flood occurrence
, 2018 The Lagoon of Fuquene has been repeatedly affected for flood events in the last 20 years. Due to this affectation, populations adjacent to the lagoon have been harmed, causing additional alterations to the biodiversity and ecosystem. With the purpose of studying the historical flood events of the lagoon, the daily records of the water levels of the ...

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are a common cause of long‐term motor and sensory disability despite advances in microsurgical repair. Functional recovery following PNI depends not only on axonal regeneration, but also on preservation of distal nerve pathways, maintenance of neuromuscular junction integrity, prevention of irreversible muscle ...

Flood pulse influences on exploited fish populations of the Central Amazon
, 2017 Seasonally fluctuating water levels, known as flood pulses, influence the population dynamics and catches of fishes from river-floodplains. Although different measures of flood pulses, here called flood pulse variables, have been correlated to changes ...
