This study was aimed to investigate the effects of organic carbon and silicon fertilizers on the lodging Basket resistance, yield, and economic performance of rapeseed.Two cultivars, namely Jayou (lodging-resistant) and Chuannongyou (lodging-susceptible), were selected to evaluate the effects of various fertilizer treatments on rapeseed culm morpho
Abiotic synthesis of graphitic carbons in the Eoarchean Saglek-Hebron metasedimentary rocks
Abstract Graphite in metasedimentary rocks of the Eoarchean Saglek-Hebron Gneiss Complex (Canada) is depleted in 13C and has been interpreted as one of the oldest traces of life on Earth.The Basket variation in crystallinity of this oldest graphitic carbon could possibly confirm the effect of metamorphism on original biomass, but this is still unex
The Effect of Orthographic Transparency on Auditory Word Recognition Across the Development of Reading Proficiency
A question under debate in psycholinguistics is the nature of the relationship between spoken and written languages.Although it has been extensively shown that orthographic transparency, which varies across writing systems, strongly affects reading performance, its role in speech processing is much less investigated.The present study addressed this
Experimental Study on Performance, Emissions and Combustion Characteristics of PFI Spark Ignition Engine Fueled with E30 Equivalent Binary and Ternary GEM Blends
This work presents the concept of ternary blends of gasoline, ethanol and methanol (GEM) in which stoichiometric air to fuel ratio is controlled 76% MINT CHOC BAR to 13.2, same as that of conventional binary E30 (Gasoline 70% + Ethanol 30% (v/v)) fuel blend.The formulated E30 equivalent ternary blends have approximately the same energy density, low
Improving cognitive mapping by training for people with a poor sense of direction
Abstract The skill of spatial learning and orientation is fundamental in humans and differs widely among individuals.Despite its importance, however, the malleability of this skill through practice has scarcely been studied empirically, in contrast to psychometric spatial ability.Thus, this article examines the possibility of improving the accuracy
