Urban stormwater may contain pollutants from different traffic vehicular sources including brake and tire wear, exhaust emissions, and atmospheric deposition.In this research, we took advantage of COVID-19 restrictions to evaluate the effects of historically low vehicular circulation on stormwater quality (metal concentrations and mass loads) gener
Sulfate is the predominant electron acceptor for anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) in marine sediments.This process is carried out by a syntrophic consortium of anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) and sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) through an energy conservation mechanism that is still poorly understood.It was previously hypothesized that A
Abstract As the amount of data on farms grows, it is important to evaluate the potential of artificial intelligence for making farming predictions.Considering all this, this study was undertaken to evaluate various machine learning (ML) algorithms using 52-year data for sheep.Data preparation was done before analysis.Breeding values were estimated
This article presents the results of a study on the acceptability of emergency contraception (EC) in Brazil, Chile, and Mexico.Opinions of potential users and possible providers were obtained through discussion groups and those of authorities and policy-makers through semi-structured interviews.Most participants had a positive opinion of EC, based
