Foi realizado um inqu rito para a recolha de Oedogoniais durante o per odo de Abril de 2003 a Dezembro de 2006 e foram feitas recolhas a partir de diferentes habitats (l nticos/l ticos) dos Himalaias Shivalik de Jammu, particularmente das reas que poderiam ser facilmente abordadas para a exist ncia de diferentes esp cies de Oedogonium e Bulbochaete. No total, foram recolhidas 74 esp cies de Oedogonium e 9 esp cies de Bulbochaete. As esp cies destes dois g neros foram identificadas com base na morfologia e nas dimens es dos rg os vegetativos e reprodutivos. Dependendo da posi o das c lulas anteridiais no ciclo de vida dos taxa, o grupo foi amplamente dividido em duas categorias, ou seja, macrandro e nannandrous. Al m disso, com base na posi o das c lulas anteridiais e das c lulas androsporangianas em rela o ao oog nio, o grupo foi subdividido em formas macrandro-heterot licas, macrandro-heterot licas e nannandrous idioandrosporous / gynandrosporous.
Un'indagine stata condotta per la raccolta di Edogoniales durante l'aprile 2003 al dicembre 2006 e sono state effettuate raccolte da diversi habitat (lentici/lotici) dello Shivalik Himalaya del Jammu, in particolare da quelle aree che potrebbero essere facilmente avvicinate per l'esistenza di diverse specie di Edogonio e di Bulbochaete.in totale sono state raccolte 74 specie di Edogonio e 9 specie di Bulbochaete. Le specie di questi due generi sono state identificate sulla base della morfologia e delle dimensioni degli organi vegetativi e riproduttivi. A seconda della posizione delle cellule ateridiali nel ciclo di vita dei taxa, il gruppo stato ampiamente suddiviso in due categorie, cio macrande e nannandrous. Inoltre, sulla base della posizione delle cellule anteridiali e delle cellule androsporangiali in relazione all'oogonio, il gruppo stato suddiviso in forme macrandose omotalliche, macrandose eterotalliche e nannandrous idioandrosporose / ginandrosporose.

This book devises an innovative new way of explaining how socioeconomic orders shape capitalism in Asia. Hundt and Uttam go beyond both the ‘varieties of capitalism’ approach, which is mainly used to analyse Western capitalism, and the 'developmental state' thesis, which is the primary framework for analysing capitalism in Asia, and propose a new and innovative approach to the emergence of capitalist systems. Rather than focusing solely or predominantly on the state, they argue, it is necessary to bring society back in to an analysis of capitalism. The authors apply this approach to case studies from across the region: Japan; South Korea and Taiwan; Hong Kong and Singapore; Malaysia and Thailand; and India and China. This volume will appeal to historians, political scientists and economists, as well as policymakers, who are interested in the transformation of the Asian region since World War II.
Deep Learning for Chest Radiographs enumerates different strategies implemented by the authors for designing an efficient convolution neural network-based computer-aided classification (CAC) system for binary classification of chest radiographs into "Normal" and "Pneumonia." Pneumonia is an infectious disease mostly caused by a bacteria or a virus. The prime targets of this infectious disease are children below the age of 5 and adults above the age of 65, mostly due to their poor immunity and lower rates of recovery. Globally, pneumonia has prevalent footprints and kills more children as compared to any other immunity-based disease, causing up to 15% of child deaths per year, especially in developing countries. Out of all the available imaging modalities, such as computed tomography, radiography or X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and so on, chest radiographs are most widely used for differential diagnosis between Normal and Pneumonia. In the CAC system designs implemented in this book, a total of 200 chest radiograph images consisting of 100 Normal images and 100 Pneumonia images have been used. These chest radiographs are augmented using geometric transformations, such as rotation, translation, and flipping, to increase the size of the dataset for efficient training of the Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). A total of 12 experiments were conducted for the binary classification of chest radiographs into Normal and Pneumonia. It also includes in-depth implementation strategies of exhaustive experimentation carried out using transfer learning-based approaches with decision fusion, deep feature extraction, feature selection, feature dimensionality reduction, and machine learning-based classifiers for implementation of end-to-end CNN-based CAC system designs, lightweight CNN-based CAC system designs, and hybrid CAC system designs for chest radiographs. This book is a valuable resource for academicians, researchers, clinicians, postgraduate and graduate students in medical imaging, CAC, computer-aided diagnosis, computer science and engineering, electrical and electronics engineering, biomedical engineering, bioinformatics, bioengineering, and professionals from the IT industry.

Eco-Restoration of Mine Land An authoritative introduction to the ecosystem-based approach for restoring land after coal and mineral mining operations. Mining activities, in particular where metal ores have been mined, often leave behind vast areas of dumps and disused mine lands that have become environmental hazards. Soil degradation and poisoning are major environmental concerns in these areas, requiring comprehensive and long-term interventions in order to restore those lands to an ecologically productive state. Eco-Restoration of Mine Land provides a comprehensive overview of ecosystem-based solutions for remediating polluted soil and re-establishing vegetation in disused mine lands, synthesizing cutting-edge research, experiential knowledge, and longstanding best practices to offer a holistic introduction to the science of mine land restoration. Eco-Restoration of Mine Land readers will also find: A basic introduction to soil contamination, risk assessment, and phytoremediation of mine land Discussion of carbon sequestration potential of restored mine soils and other environmental benefits of remediated mine land The use of biological soil quality indicators to assess progress in ecosystem restoration Eco-Restoration of Mine Land is a valuable guide for researchers and advanced students in the environmental and ecological sciences, as well as professionals working in environmental remediation, providing a much-needed survey of this increasingly critical subject.

This book provides an overview of the applications of ion beam techniques in oxide materials. Oxide materials exhibit defect-induced physical properties relevant to applications in sensing, optoelectronics and spintronics. Defects in these oxide materials also lead to magnetism in non-magnetic materials or to a change of magnetic ordering in magnetic materials. Thus, an understanding of defects is of immense importance. To date, ion beam tools are considered the most effective techniques for producing controlled defects in these oxides. This book will detail the ion beam tools utilized for creating defects in oxides.
