The distribution of predators relative to specific abiotic and biotic factors within estuarine plume fronts is largely unexplored due to the lack of fine-scale temporal and spatial oceanographic data.Defining preferred foraging conditions of seabirds in these areas is critical to identifying important foraging habitats.Here, we use data obtained fr
Results of the development of biodegradable oils suitable for forest machines
The paper is a response to the problem of the environment pollution by oil product spills from mechanisms of forest and agricultural machines.The problem can be dealt with through the replacement of mineral oils by biodegradable oils.Information concerning the measurement of parameters of these oils was published by the author.It has been demonstra
Changes in the Antioxidant Properties of Extra Virgin Olive Oil after Cooking Typical Mediterranean Vegetables
Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), water, and a water/oil mixture (W/O) were used for frying, boiling and sautéeing Mediterranean vegetables (potato, pumpkin, tomato and eggplant).Differences in antioxidant capacity (AC) (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ferric iron (FRAP), 2,2-azinobis-(3-ethylbensothiazoline)-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS)), total
Entangled spins and ghost-spins
We study patterns of quantum entanglement in systems of spins and ghost-spins regarding them as simple quantum mechanical toy models for theories containing Power Lift Recliner negative norm states.We define a single ghost-spin as in [20] as a 2-state spin variable with an indefinite inner product in the state space.We find that whenever the spin s
