1. Analysis of Wet Antenna Losses on 11.843 GHz Slant Path in Nigeria and Comparison with Some Tropical Climates
Abstract The amount of water deposits on the receiving dish antenna can cause additional losses and consequently contaminate the actual slant-path attenuation. Only a few research works have been reported in the literature on the measurement of wet antenna attenuation (WAA) and the technique(s) of extracting the losses from the total attenuation in tropical

2. Different scales determine the occurrence of aquatic macrophyte species in a tropical stream
ABSTRACT Distributions of aquatic macrophyte species are commonly associated with water chemistry characteristics. However, other environmental factors that can lead to the occurrence of aquatic plants in lotic ecosystems, such as dynamic habitats linked to the surrounding landscape, have been underestimated. This study aims to evaluate landscape features th

3. CHLORDECONE ADSORPTION ON FUNCTIONALIZED ACTIVATED CARBONS: COMPUTATIONAL CHEMISTRY AS A TOOL FOR UNDERSTANDING THE ADSORPTION PROCESS
Chlordecone (CLD) has been used as a pesticide for a long time to control the proliferation of various insects in tropical countries like the French West Indies. CLD was included in 2009 in the list of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) by the Stockholm Convention, prohibiting its production and use worldwide. Thus, its removal from water and soils is a sa

4. Hypoglycemic effect of okra aqueous extract on streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
Abstract Okra (AbelmoschusesculentusL.Moench) is widely planted in subtropical and tropical areas, with good palatability and a variety of biological activities. However, the hypoglycemic activity of okra aqueous extract and its mechanism were still unclear. In this paper, the hypoglycemic effect of okra aqueous extract on type 1 diabetic rats induced by str

5. APLICAÇÃO DE NANOPARTÍCULAS DE FERRO ZERO-VALENTE (nFeZ) NA REMEDIAÇÃO DE SOLOS E ÁGUAS SUBTERRÂNEAS CONTAMINADAS: UMA REVISÃO
The remediation of contaminated soil and water is a relevant topic, being the focus of intense research. The use of nanoparticles to degrade contaminants has been consolidated as a sustainable remediation technology, with promising results worldwide. In this scenario, the zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI) which, due to their properties, prove to be an im

6. Root parasitism by Scybalium fungiforme Schott & Endl. is not random among host species in seasonal tropical forest
ABSTRACT Though they comprise 1 % of plant species on the planet, plant parasites are poorly known. They have been considered a threat to cultivated plants and to the conservation of host species in natural areas. Due to the complex interactions they have with their hosts, understanding their biology is fundamental to the development of conservation strategi

7. Development of a dehydrated product with edible film characteristics from mammee apple (Mammea americana L.) using Refractance Window drying
Abstract The Mammee apple (Mammea americana L.) is a widely grown fruit, popular in tropical areas, which is mainly consumed fresh. Refractance Window (RW) drying is used to produce food films, flakes, and powders, and may be an alternative to commercially used dry food production methods. The aim of this study was to obtain a dehydrated product from the pul

8. Influence of treatment with water-soluble CCB preservative on the physical-mechanical properties of brazilian tropical timber
This aim of this work is to present an analysis of the influence of impregnation against biological demand, realized with saline solution of CCB (Chromated Copper Borate preservative) by vacuum-pressure process, on physical-mechanical properties of tropical wood species Simarouba sp., Cedrelinga catenaeformis and Erisma uncinatum Warm. In theory, such proces

9. Permanent wilt point from two methods for different combinations of citrus rootstock
RESUMO: Considerando que a água é extremamente importante na produção agrícola, mas com restrita disponibilidade em algumas regiões brasileiras, é que esse trabalho buscou identificar o limite hídrico inferior para os porta-enxertos: tangerina Cleóptra (Citrus reshni hort. Ex Tan), limão Volkameriano (Citrus Volkameriano Pasquale), citrandarin ‘I

10. EFFECTS OF SEASONAL AIR TEMPERATURES AND LIGHT ON LEAF TRAITS AT ATLANTIC MONTANE FOREST, BRAZILIAN SOUTHEAST
ABSTRACT Seasonal variation of temperature could place physiological constraints on the distribution and performance of tropical forest plants, associated with light and water availability. A simple way to assess the relationship between temperature and plant physiology is through the characterization of leaf traits. The main aim of this study was to evaluat

11. Efeito de dois sistemas de resfriamento sobre os hormônios tireoidianos e as variáveis termofisiológicas de matrizes suínas em lactação
RESUMO Avaliaram-se os efeitos do sistema de resfriamento evaporativo com pressão negativa (SRE) e aspersão de água sobre o telhado (AAT), as variáveis termofisiológicas, os hormônios tireoidianos e a relação neutrófilo:linfócito (N:L) em porcas. Utilizaram-se 61 fêmeas em lactação, que foram divididas nos dois ambientes térmicos, sendo 30 em S
