A case-based reasoning strategy of integrating case-level and covariate-level reasoning to automatically select covariates for spatial prediction

ABSTRACTSpatial prediction is essential for obtaining the spatial distribution of geographic variables and selecting appropriate covariates for this process can be challenging, especially for non-expert users.For easing the burden of selecting the appropriate covariates, two case-based reasoning strategies, namely the most-similar-case and covariat

Ubiquitous dissolved inorganic carbon assimilation by marine bacteria in the Pacific Northwest coastal ocean as determined by stable isotope probing.

In order to identify bacteria that assimilate dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) Butter in the northeast Pacific Ocean, stable isotope probing (SIP) experiments were conducted on water collected from 3 different sites off the Oregon and Washington coasts in May 2010, and one site off the Oregon Coast in September 2008 and March 2009.Samples were incu

Entropy generation under the influence of radial magnetic field and viscous dissipation of generalized Couette flow in an annulus

This paper investigates the combined effect of radial magnetic field and viscous dissipation on Molded Fiber / Container entropy generation in horizontal co-axial cylinders of generalized Couette flow.The analytical solutions for velocity and temperature profiles are obtained and utilized to compute the entropy generation, Bejan number as well as t
