The contribution of urban green spaces to the improvement of environment in cities: Case study of Chania, Greece
No full textModelling framework for evaluation environmental strategy and water management efficency at airports
No full textThe growing concern about climate change and environmental protection
represent significant barriers towards growth in the aviation sector. Currently,
airport operators need to consider not only noise control and local air, soil and
water pollution management, but also to control the consumption of nonrenewable
natural resources and to minimise their impact on climate change.
A detailed analysis of current applied practices pointed out that the main issues
that airports need to manage, have to do principally with control of natural
resources consumption, control of noise and management of emissions, water
quality, waste and ecosystems. Although these issues in most of cases have been
identified, airports’ priorities regarding their management were not easily
acknowledged.
The key findings of this research suggest that in the case of environmental
management strategies, different patterns exist; thus, some airports seem to seek
balance mostly between mitigating global and local environmental issues or
resource consumption control and pollution management, while others obviously
take measures aimed at managing one or the other impact. In the case of water
management efficiency, while many airports seem to have applied measures to
sustain water quality, only a few of them have applied sufficient consumption
control measures

Limit theorems in l-groups with respect to D-convergence
No full textSome Schur, Vitali-Hahn-Saks and Nikodym convergence theorems for l-group-valued measures are given in the context of (D)-convergence. We consider both the sigma-additive and the finitely additive case. The pointwise convergence of the measures involved is assumed to be with respect to a common regulator, while the concepts of sigma-additivity and strong boundedness are formulated similarly as the corresponding classical ones (and not with respect to a same regulator)

Convergence Theorems for Lattice Group-Valued Measures
No full text"Convergence Theorems for Lattice Group-valued Measures" explains limit and boundedness theorems for measures taking values in abstract structures. The book begins with a historical survey about these topics since the beginning of the last century, moving on to basic notions and preliminaries on filters/ideals, lattice groups, measures and tools which are featured in the rest of this text. Readers will also find a survey on recent classical results about limit, boundedness and extension theorems for lattice group-valued measures followed by information about recent developments on these kinds of theorems and several results in the setting of filter/ideal convergence. In addition, each chapter has a general description of the topics and an appendix on random variables, concepts and lattices is also provided. Thus readers will benefit from this book through an easy-to-read historical survey about all the problems on convergence and boundedness theorems, and the techniques and tools which are used to prove the main results. The book serves as a primer for undergraduate, postgraduate and Ph. D. students on mathematical lattice and topological groups and filters, and a treatise for expert researchers whose aim to extend their knowledge base
MeSH term explosion and author rank improve expert recommendations
No full textInformation overload is an often-cited phenomenon that reduces the productivity, efficiency and efficacy of scientists. One challenge for scientists is to find appropriate collaborators in their research. The literature describes various solutions to the problem of expertise location, but most current approaches do not appear to be very suitable for expert recommendations in biomedical research. In this study, we present the development and initial evaluation of a vector space model-based algorithm to calculate researcher similarity using four inputs: 1) MeSH terms of publications; 2) MeSH terms and author rank; 3) exploded MeSH terms; and 4) exploded MeSH terms and author rank. We developed and evaluated the algorithm using a data set of 17,525 authors and their 22,542 papers. On average, our algorithms correctly predicted 2.5 of the top 5/10 coauthors of individual scientists. Exploded MeSH and author rank outperformed all other algorithms in accuracy, followed closely by MeSH and author rank. Our results show that the accuracy of MeSH term-based matching can be enhanced with other metadata such as author rank
First human culture-proven Australian case of entomophthoromycosis caused by Basidiobolus ranarum
No full textAccepted 19 November 1993The first human case of entomophthoromycosis caused by Basidiobolus ranarum in Australia is described. Upon first presentation this rare disease was not recognized, but microscopy of biopsy sections and identification of the fungal isolate allowed this condition to be identified. Treatment with fluconazole was successful.S. R. Davis, D. H. Ellis, P. Goldwater L, S. Dimitriou and R. Byar
Surface organization of a perfluorocarbon-functionalized polystyrene homopolymer
No full textWe use the perfl uorocarbon-functionalized polymer, poly(4-((1H ,1H ,2H ,2H -perfl uorodecyl)-oxycarbonyl)styrene) [PPFOCS], as a model system with both surface molecular segregation and molecular orientation to test the capabilities of a near-edge X-ray absorption fi ne structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy analysis scheme for polymer surfaces. Both NEXAFS spectroscopy and angleresolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) show segregation of the − (CF2 )7 CF3 chain to the air/polymer interface with the styrenic portion underneath. Postedge analysis of the NEXAFS spectra indicates a low carbon atom density surface layer, of thickness 1.0− 1.4 nm, due to the overlayer of perfl uorocarbon chains. An analysis of the NEXAFS C 1s→ π*CC and C 1s → σ*C−F transitions accounting for the diff erent depth distributions of the phenyl rings and fl uorocarbon helices reveals strong orientational ordering with the orientational order parameter SCC for the phenyl ring equal to − 0.27 and for the C− F bonds in the fl uorocarbon helix SC−F equal to − 0.13. The SCC and SC−F determined for the polymer with the esterlinked side chain are considerably higher than those reported previously (− 0.039 and 0, respectively) for a polymer [poly(4- (1H ,1H ,2H ,2H -perfl uorodecyl)oxymethylstyrene)] with an identical side chain that was ether linked to the styrene phenyl ring. We tentatively attribute the high orientation in the PPFOCS to the partial conjugation between the ester group and the phenyl ring providing a relatively stiff linkage between the perfl uorocarbon helix and the phenyl ring
