Underwater sensor networks are becoming an important field of re- search, because of its everyday increasing application scope. Examples of their application areas are environmental and pollution monitoring (mainly oil s...

In this work, we carried out the synthesis of lead(II) divanadate(V) by means of a soft chemistry reaction based on a sol–gel-derived route. The final organic precursor was heat treated (T = 400, 500, 600, 750 and 800 ...

The cactus moth, Cactoblastis cactorum mainly distributed throughout central and northeastern Argentina was intentionally introduced in the Caribbean region in 1957 as a biological control agent of cacti species of the g...

In this paper we present a denotational semantics for a lazy functional language. The semantics is intrinsic in the sense that it defines meaning for typing derivations instead of language expressions. We contrast our se...

The distribution of butyltins (BTs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were studied in surface sediments to assess how relevant is Mar del Plata port (Argentina) as a source of contamination to the surrounding e...

he JEM-EUSO telescope will be, after calibration, a very accurate instrument which yields the number of received photons from the number of measured photo-electrons. The project is in phase A (demonstration of the concep...

In many species daily rhythms are endogenously generated by groups of coupled neurons that play the role of a circadian pacemaker. The adaptation of the circadian clock to environmental and seasonal changes has been prop...

The present study provides the first complete examination of how different time scales contributed to generate the four largest observed floods of the Paraná River (1905, 1983, 1992 and 1998). This inspection is based o...

Copper bioavailability, specially to plants, is strongly dependent on its chemical form, as for most metals. Copper-contaminated soil can be treated in situ by the addition of minerals such as Na-bentonite, which mixed w...

Agroecosystems are usually polluted with a wide variety of contaminants with pesticides being very frequently detected. Endosulfan, an organochlorine pesticide, has been shown to cause both lethal and sublethal effects o...

We summarize current knowledge on the effects of the invasive Asian bivalve Limnoperna fortunei (introduced in South America around 1990) on local biota. Limnoperna modifies nutrient concentrations and decreases concentr...

The new Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announcement makes it even more necessary to find alternatives to trans fats. The effect of cooling rate and temperature cycles on crystallization behavior and polymorphism of t...

Dehydrated fruits are prone to discoloration during storage. Many natural pigments are unstable in dried fruits, and brown pigments can be formed. The rate of physical and chemical changes in dried vegetables and food mo...

Intestinal parasites suppose a cost to hosts as they compete directly for nutritional resources. Therefore, hosts must defend themselves against intestinal parasites by mounting an immune response. Many penguin species a...

Results of a search for H → ττ decays are presented, based on the full set of proton-proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC during 2011 and 2012. The data correspond to integrated luminosit...

In this paper we considered the theoretical treatment of a physical system of excitons and its behaviour under temperature by means of a new coherent state construction of bounded states in a quantum field theoretical co...

Extracellular α-Synuclein has been implicated in interneuronal propagation of disease pathology in Parkinson’s Disease. How α-Synuclein is released into the extracellular space is still unclear. Here, we show that α...

Peanut is an allotetraploid (2n = 2x = 40, AABB) of recent origin. Arachis duranensis and A. ipaënsis, the most probable diploid ancestors of the cultigen, and several other wild diploid species with different genom...

Beyond the unique sound of howler monkey vocalizations, their vigorous loud calling displays are perplexing given the otherwise sedentary lifestyle of these primates. Here we provide potential explanations for this energ...

This paper explores the feasibility of characterizing the mechanical response of the commercial aerospace grade epoxy resin RTM6 by nanoindentation tests at varying temperatures and strain rates. Since glassy polymers ex...

Hybridization, or the process by which individuals from genetically distinct populations (e.g., species, subspecies) mate and produce at least some offspring, is of great relevance to understanding the basis of reproduct...

A recent proposal was made for a large representation rank limit for which the expectation values of N=4 super Yang-Mills Wilson loops are given by the exponential of the 1-loop result. We verify the validity of this exp...

Ombrotrophic peat bogs from Tierra del Fuego are characteristically raised, dome-shaped, fed by precipitation, and nutrient-poor. Their landscape pattern consists of a Sphagnum magellanicum matrix encompassing pools with...

The Andes Cordillera plays a role in driving moisture and heat from tropical onto subtropical South America. It forces the development of a lee-side trough that covers most of western Argentina and a low-level jet that m...
