HEAVY METAL PRE-CONDITIONING HISTORY MODULATES SPARTINA PATENS PHYSIOLOGICAL TOLERANCE ALONG A SALINITY GRADIENT

Heavy Metal Pre-Conditioning History Modulates Spartina patens Physiological Tolerance along a Salinity Gradient

Land salinization, resulting from the ongoing climate change phenomena, is having an increasing impact on coastal ecosystems like salt marshes.Although halophyte species can live and thrive in high salinities, they experience differences in their salt tolerance range, being this a determining factor in the plant distribution and frequency throughou

Inflammatory Pseudotumor of the Sinonasal Tract

Inflammatory pseudotumors (IPTs) are a clinically and histologically diverse group of lesions characterized by a tumor mass of acute and chronic inflammatory cells with a variable fibrous response.IPTs most commonly involve the Polish lung and orbit, but rarely the sinonasal tract.We report a 68-year-old male with an IPT of the sinonasal tract pres

A Control Approach and Supplementary Controllers for a Stand-Alone System with Predominance of Wind Generation

This paper proposes a control approach and supplementary controllers for the operation of a hybrid stand-alone system composed of a wind generation unit and a conventional generation unit based on synchronous generator (CGU).The proposed controllers allow the islanded or isolated operation of small power systems with predominance of wind generation
