Six slags from Volubilis archaeological site roman period (II-III centuries AC) and Jabal Awam ancient mine have been examined for their mineral and chemical compositions by a multi-technique approach (Optical and metallographical microscopies, XRD, ICP-AES and XRF).Mineralogical analyses have emphasised the occurrence of iron Serveware oxi-hydroxi
Moose (Alces alces) are generalist herbivores, but are important aquatic-terrestrial ecotone specialists.Aquatic macrophytes are a high-quality food source for moose during summer, but the importance of aquatic food sources to the moose diet is difficult to study.We used stable isotope analysis of carbon and nitrogen lower board from moose hooves a
The energy performance of a variable refrigerant flow (VRF) system was evaluated using an occupancy-emulated research building in the southeastern region of the United States.Full- and part-load performance of the VRF system in heating and cooling seasons was compared with a conventional rooftop unit (RTU) variable-air-volume system with electric r
Abstract Background Behavioural syndromes, i.e.consistent individual differences in behaviours that are correlated across different functional contexts, are a challenge to evolutionary reasoning because individuals should adapt their behaviour to the requirements of each situation.Behavioural syndromes are often interpreted as a result of constrain
The objective of this study lower board was to estimate and evaluate the economic indicators of lettuce production, cultivated using different soil cover and plant spacing.The experiment was conducted in subdivided parcels, with four replications.The treatments were composed by a combination of three soil cover (uncovered soil, straw and plastic co
