WILDFIRE CAUSE ANALYSIS: FOUR CASE-STUDIES IN SOUTHERN ITALY

Wildfire cause analysis: four case-studies in southern Italy

Forest fires in Italy are mainly caused by humans, and directly depend on social behavior, whether voluntary (arson) or involuntary (negligence).Despite the progress in knowledge made with studying the physical facets of the phenomenon, causes and motives of human-related fire remain mostly unknown.This paper proposes the implementation of the Delp

Morphological and spectroscopic analysis of snow and glacier algae and their parasitic fungi on different glaciers of Svalbard

Abstract The results show the morphological analyses and spectroscopic studies of snow and glacier algae and their parasitic fungi in Svalbard (High Arctic).Fixed algal cells of two species, Sanguina nivaloides and Ancylonema nordenskioeldii, were faber-castell tamitio rollerball pen imaged using light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM)

Excitability constraints on voltage-gated sodium channels.

We study how functional constraints bound and shape evolution through an analysis of mammalian voltage-gated sodium channels.The primary function of sodium channels is to allow the propagation of action potentials.Since Hodgkin and Huxley, mathematical models have suggested that sodium channel properties need to be tightly constrained for an action

GoDetector: Detecting Concurrent Bug in Go

Go provides a new concurrency mechanism based on message-passing, which brings corgi pup knife a series of new concurrency bugs.The existing tools are highly dependent on model-checking methods in which they take the source program as the input of model-checking tools to detect the potential concurrent bugs.However, these methods can only qualitati
