Membrane technology can play a very influential role in the separation of the constituents of HFC refrigerant gas mixtures, which usually exhibit azeotropic or near-azeotropic behavior, with the goal of promoting the reuse of value-added compounds in the manufacture of new low-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant mixtures that abide by the cu
The role of experimental data and the use of IoT-based monitoring systems are gaining broader significance in research on bees across several aspects: bees as global pollinators, as biosensors, and as examples of swarm intelligence.This increases the demands on monitoring systems to obtain homogeneous, continuous, and standardized experimental data
Tropical small-scale fisheries are typical for providing complex multivariate data, due to their diversity in fishing techniques and highly diverse species composition.In this paper we used for the first time a supervised Self-Organizing Map (xyf-SOM), to recognize and understand the internal heterogeneity of a tropical marine small-scale fishery,
BackgroundIn cooperative breeders, subordinates generally help a dominant breeding pair to raise offspring.Parentage studies have shown that in several species subordinates can participate in reproduction.This suggests an important role of direct fitness benefits for cooperation, particularly where groups contain unrelated subordinates.In this situ
