The oxidation of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) gives a range of products, from semi-volatile to extremely low-volatility compounds.To treat the interaction of these secondary organic vapours with the particle phase, global aerosol microphysics models generally use either a thermodynamic partitioning approach (assuming instant equilibr
2021 Handbook of Florida Water Regulation: Protection and Management of Endangered Species
This handbook is designed to provide a summary of the principal federal and state (Florida) laws that directly or indirectly relate to agriculture.Because these laws are subject to constant revision, portions of Collections the handbook could become outdated at any time.The reader should use it as a means to determine areas in which to seek more in
Photovoltaic mini-grid incorporation: The panacea for electricity crisis in sub-Saharan Africa
The electrification rate in sub-Saharan Africa, standing at 45% in 2018, is significantly lower when compared with global benchmarks.The 600 million individuals lacking access to electricity constitute over two-thirds of the worldwide aggregate of the population lacking electricity.Limitations of power grids have placed a disproportionate burden of
Minimizing Honey Bee Exposure to Pesticides
Protecting honey bees and other pollinators from pesticide impacts is important to the sustainability of agriculture.Consequently, pesticide applicators must determine if there is a clear hazard to managed or wild populations of bees.Potential exposure of bees to pesticides can vary greatly depending on the type of pesticide, formulation, applicati
Evaluating Clonal Expansion of HIV-Infected Cells: Optimization of PCR Strategies to Predict Clonality.
In HIV-infected individuals receiving suppressive antiretroviral therapy, the virus persists indefinitely in a reservoir of latently infected cells.The proliferation of these cells may contribute to the stability of the reservoir and thus to the lifelong persistence of HIV-1 in infected individuals.Because the HIV-1 replication process is highly er
