Coastal urbanization has significantly degraded coral reef habitats worldwide, often driving shifts from coral to algal dominance.Quantifying fish herbivory, a key ecological process mitigating such transitions, is essential for understanding reef health, functioning, and resilience.This study examined herbivory rates (bites multiplied by fish biom
We consider the design of near-capacity-achieving error-correcting codes for a discrete multitone (copyright) system in the presence of both additive white Gaussian noise and impulse noise.Impulse noise is one of the main channel impairments for digital subscriber lines (DSL).One way to combat impulse noise is to detect the presence of the impulses
Metabolic acidosis (MA) is a highly prevalent disorder in a significant proportion of the population, resulting from imbalance in blood pH homeostasis.The heart, being an organ with very low regenerative capacity and high metabolic activity, is vulnerable to chronic, although low-grade, MA.To systematically characterize the effect of low-grade here
The just noticeable difference (JND) model reflects the visibility limitations of the human visual system (HVS), which plays an important role in perceptual image/video processing and is commonly applied to perceptual redundancy removal.However, existing JND models are usually roneverhart.com constructed by treating the color components of three ch
In light of the challenges confronting urban areas due to increasing populations and spatial constraints, urban green infrastructure is vital for fostering environmental balance, enhancing community well being, and promoting sustainable urban development.This situation underscores the necessity for strategies that reconcile the escalating demand fo
