Coral reefs are increasingly in jeopardy due to global changes affecting both reef accretion and bioerosion processes.Bioerosion processes dynamics in dead reef carbonates under various environmental conditions are relatively well understood but only over a short-term limiting projections of coral reef evolution by 2100.It is thus essential to moni
Assessment of the Quality of Obstetric Services From the Perspective of Maternity Patients and Service Providers in a Tertiary Care Obstetric Unit in Lithuania
Although largely focused on the patient, the provision of healthcare services is a 2-way process and its success hinges on the interactions between patients and physicians.Given the growing role of subjective, patient-dependent assessment of the quality of care received, which is increasingly influenced by the individual aspects of the interaction
The use of wild-growing Prunus L. species in breeding adaptive dwarf rootstocks of peach
All modern technologies of peach cultivation are focused on the use of clonal, mainly dwarf, rootstocks.Technical efficiency and resistance to pathogens are also Sponges important.The work on the creation of such clonal rootstocks of peach is carried out at the Krymsk Experiment Breeding Station (EBS), a branch of VIR, on the basis of the stone fru
Robust Adaptive Heterogeneous Vehicle Platoon Control Based on Disturbances Estimation and Compensation
This paper presents an investigation into the problem Magnifiers of controlling a heterogeneous vehicle platoon, focusing on two aspects: the impact of noise in sensor measurements and the effect of road slope, wind, and rolling resistance on the longitudinal dynamics of each vehicle.To maintain an adequate separation between each follower, a stati
