Coastal salt marsh is one of the important composition of coastal land type. However, our knowledge about greenhouse gas (GHG) turnover between the atmosphere and the saline soils is very limited. In order to evaluate the potential of CO2 and CH4 consumption in salt marsh, the characteristics of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes and the environmental factors from the coastal salt marsh in the Yellow River Delta across four vegetation types (bare flat, Suaeda glauca, Phragmites australis and Tamarix chinensis) were observed in situ with static-chamber and GC methods from April to December in 2012, and the seasonal variation and the key factors affecting CH4 and CO2 fluxes were discussed. We found that these coastal salt marshes were the source of CO2 all the years round, specifically, the CO2 emissions varied from 2.287 mg/(m2•h)to 331.371 mg/(m2•h), and the mean CO2 flux was 77.107 mg/(m2•h), which indicated that the coastal salt marsh was the source of CO2 all the years round. The order of CO2 fluxes of different vegetation types was bare flat

Verifying the results’ rationality in assessing Cultivated Land Fertility (CLF) often has a great significance on promoting the level of cultivated land protection and construction, but there is little or insufficiently available information documenting it. In this paper, the CLF in Xiuwu County, Henan Province, China, was evaluated by means of the Gray Relational Analysis (GRA) method, and the traditional AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) one, respectively. Then, the consistency of two results was analyzed. Furthermore, one method testing the evaluation rationality of CLF, based on the distribution of crop yield levels, was proposed and employed in the research area. The results show that the consistency rate of area and evaluation unit number with the same level evaluated by two methods is 84.68% and 87.29%, respectively, and the space distribution is basically the same. The concordance rates with the same level between the crop yield levels and the CLF evaluation ones by GRA, and that by AHP are 78.15% and 74.29%, respectively. Therefore, the verifying effects of GRA and AHP are near, good and acceptable, and the CLF results by both of them could reflect the distribution of crop production levels. As a whole the result of GCA is slightly better than that of AHP.

The morphological and growth properties for their seedlings under different relative irradiances were explored by the pot experiments. The objective was to compare their adaptability mode and degree of shade tolerance. The results showed the optimum light intensity for relative growth rate (RGR) of the three species was 100% for Bischofia javanica, 50% for Heritiera parvifolia and 30% for Vatica mangachapoi, respectively, indicating the shade tolerance was B. javanica < H. parvifolia < V. mangachapoi. RGR under each light level was positively correlated with unit leaf ratio (ULR), root mass ratio (RMR) and leaf number (LN), and negatively correlated with leaf mass ratio (LMR). B. javanica had the highest stem mass ratio (SMR) and RMR, with more investment in non-photosynthetic tissues. However, V. mangachapoi had the highest LMR and leaf area ratio (LAR), with more investment in photosynthetic tissues, which was due to its lowest specific leaf area (SLA). H. parvifolia was intermediate between them in biomass allocation. The order of phenotypic plasticity for the three species was B. javanica > H. parvifolia > V. mangachapoi, which was contrary to the order of shade tolerance. Our results suggest that when light intensity decreased gradually (as the case in a secondary succession), the dominance of the communities in the tropical lowland rain forest region should be changed from B. javanica through H. parvifolia and finally to V. mangachapoi.

Abstract\nIntroduction: Maternal outcomes and prenatal outcomes depend on the mutual reactions between maternal and fetal and environmental factors.One of the influential cases in thisfield is the funis length.\n\nMethod: A descriptive analytic study was conducted on 300 pregnant women, who had been admitted in labor section. After placenta expulsion, the length of the funis, placental and birth weight were measured. Gestational age was determined according to maternal LMP and sonography of pregnancy. Meconial amniotic fluid was determined through labor examination in the amniotomy. \nResults: The result revealed meaningful differences between neonatal height, placental and neonatal weight. No relationship was revealed between the length of funis and the sex of neonate, the situation of Amniotic fluid, and the first minute Apgar score. \nConclusion: Considering the deficient that may be available in this study, it is recommended that a study be done in this fiend in other regions of the country and in other countries, in employed women, and in larger samples so that we can achieve comparative or new results in this regard.

Postmodernity as the trait of general social transformations, especially in the sphere of reproduction of capital and lifestyle changes, is basically related to transition from reproduction of the production to the reproduction of consumption. This global phenomenon is characteristic for the transition period of Serbian society as well, and it is evident in all spheres of activity, particularly in cities. In this context, series of important studies and projects harmonised with contemporary theoretical doctrine and the best European practices, were initiated in Serbia. From the standpoint of planning practice this represents a major step forward, especially in the field of landscape planning and in the context of adaptation of the cities to global climate change. However, implementation of the adopted projects and documents is facing significant problems in practice. \n The goal of this paper is to explain the phenomenon of mass production of projects in urban practices, usually not implemented regardless their importance and role in life quality improvement and principled support from officials at all decision making levels. The starting point of this paper is to establish a correlation between this phenomenon of large production of projects and the phenomenon of postmodernity, which explains the evident quantitative and qualitative discrepancy between the number of developed and implemented projects. \n The discursive analysis of the disparity between production and realization of the projects led to the conclusion that its roots are in the change of character of capitalism in terms of periodical increase of consumption in the short period of time. This excludes almost all possibilities for implementation of the projects whose time interval exceeds the imperative of capital increase, and thus become the purpose for itself.

The mapping of land use/land cover patterns are done with their changes with time with the help of satellite remote sensing data. Remote sensing is a technique of collecting informations of the objects of investigation without having physical contact with them. The remotely sensed data for land use and land cover is a key to many diverse applications like forestry, agriculture and environment to monitor the accurate land cover information of a particular region. The contribution of the satellite image data will be on the Coimbatore district[2] change-related applications for vegetation, geology, land surface climatology and land cover change. \n\nThe remote sensing data have been analyzed to fix the land cover classification of our district, and to know how the use of land changes according to time. To perform the temporal analysis to study [3] forestry, agriculture and the climatic investigation, the unsupervised classification method is used. This is very fast and useful analysis method. It is widely used for the crops [10] classification in the world and this classification method is used for land cover and land use because vegetation components are important in the images[9].The basic axis is also to preserve the greenery of the entire district for the healthy environment.

The majority of lipomas are slow-growing painless soft tissue benign tumors of adipose tissue and one of the most common benign neoplasms of the body. Their location in the oral cavity is very rare, accounting for 1-5% of all neoplasms. The purpose of this study is to present the diagnosis and operative treatment of a giant buccopalatinal lipoma in a 23-years old girl. The tumor was completely removed under general anaesthesia with surgical extirpation (via intraoral approach) and preservation of the nearby structures.

Control of blood glucose concentration for patients in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) has been demonstrated to be beneficial in reducing mortality and the incidence of serious complications for type 1 diabetic patients. However, the high degree of variability and uncertainty characterizing the physiological conditions of critically ill patients make automated glucose control quite difficult.Consequently, traditional protocols are usually employed.These procedures are based on infrequent glucose measurements lookup tables to determine the appropriate insulin infusion rates and bedside insulin administration. In this article, a novel automatic adaptive control strategy based on frequent blood glucose concentration measurements and a blood glucose dose automatic control technique is validated based on a simulation study for type-1 diabetic patients.The blood glucose injection automatic control is shown to be highly effective in controlling blood glucose concentration despite the large degree of variability in the blood glucose response exhibited by the type-1 diabetic patients. These models represent typical ingesta in the diet of patient. Also note that insulin rate is adjusted by the controller depending upon the blood glucose concentration. In addition, the blood glucose concentration at interstitial exhibits short time hyperglycemia before each meal. Although the hyperglycemia is handled by the controller leading the blood glucose concentration to glycemic level, hyperglycemia scenario is found along each and every hour. The longer time duration of hyperglycemia scenario is during the sleeping period. Researchers used various control circuits, regulators and monitors to track the biological features dynamically. The proposed systems have more impact on society for the better control of diabetics.This article is to inject insulin for type 1 diabetes patients by pumping the insulin. The blood glucose level has to be monitored with the help of glucose tolerance test. For efficient method to control type1 diabetes, researcher will use embedded linear parameter varying controller.The researcher has compared the six day practical data of type 1 diabetic patient (graph) to the proposed stimulation graph, results in this article.
