Temporal and spatial variation of limnological variables and biomass of different macrophyte species in a Neotropical reservoir (São Paulo - Brazil) [PDF]
Aim: This study reports an investigation of limnological characteristics and aquatic macrophyte occurrence in a neotropical reservoir in order to assess the spatio-temporal variation of water and sediment variables and their influence on plant ...

Configurational temperature control for atomic and molecular systems [PDF]
A new configurational temperature thermostat suitable for molecules with holonomic constraints is derived. This thermostat has a simple set of motion equations, can generate the canonical ensemble in both position and momentum space, acts homogeneously ...

Regional averaging and scaling in relativistic cosmology [PDF]
Averaged inhomogeneous cosmologies lie at the forefront of interest, since cosmological parameters like the rate of expansion or the mass density are to be considered as volume-averaged quantities and only these can be compared with observations.

Diatoms are generally regarded as inhabitants of water bodies. However, numerous taxa are able to survive and reproduce in a variety of non-aquatic ecosystems. Although terrestrial diatoms are discussed extensively in the literature, most of those studies covered floristic aspects and few information exists on their ecology.

On robust stability of switched homogeneous systems
This paper analyses the robust stability of a class of homogeneous systems where a relation among the high‐order term, the decay rate and the domain of attraction of the system is explicitly established.

Factors Controlling the Spatial Variability of Mercury Distribution in Spanish Topsoil
This study characterized the sources and scales of mercury variability in agricultural soils of the river Ebro (9.5 million ha) using geostatistical methods and data from 624 samples. The Ebro basin (20% of Spanish land mass) is an important agricultural area that is industrialized.

Optimal Control of Molecular Motion Expressed Through Quantum Fluid Dynamics [PDF]
A quantum fluid dynamic control formulation is presented for optimally manipulating atomic and molecular systems. In quantum fluid dynamic the control quantum system is expressed in terms of the probability density and the quantum current. This choice of

Gravity compensation and optimal control of actuated multibody system dynamics
This work investigates the gravity compensation topic, from a control perspective. The gravity could be levelled by a compensating mechanical system or in the control law, such as proportional derivative (PD) plus gravity, sliding mode control, or ...

Water Flow Controls the Spatial Variability of Methane Emissions in a Northern Valley Fen Ecosystem [PDF]
Abstract. Northern peatlands are projected to be crucial in future atmospheric methane (CH4) budgets and have a positive feedback on global warming. Fens receive nutrients from catchments via inflowing water and are more sensitive than bogs to climate change-caused variations in their ecohydrology.

Spatial and temporal variability in cyanobacterial populations controlled by physical processes [PDF]
The Fitzroy impoundment is a long slender water body (10 m deep) formed by the regulation of the Fitzroy River in tropical Australia. Large, monsoonally driven discharges in late summer flush the impoundment repeatedly leaving, after 2 months, a longitudinally uniform, well-mixed water column, rich in dissolved nutrients and with high turbidity.
