Cultivares de trigo submetidas a déficit hídrico no início do florescimento, em casa de vegetação Wheat cultivars submitted to water deficit at the beginning of flowering in greenh... by Diego dos Santos, Vandeir F. Guimarães, Jeferson Klein, Samuel L. Fioreze, Eurides K. Macedo Júnior

“…Reduction was found in the gravimetric soil moisture, in the relative levels of water and in all biometric variables, in function of the water deficit. The grain production showed difference only among the water regimes, in which the cultivar CD 111 is more efficient in the maintenance of the productive potential in conditions of water deficit, through the quick recovery in the relative content of water in leaves.…”

Research on Constraint Processing Method of High-dimensional Optimization Operation Problem of Cascade Reservoirs by Zhongzheng HE, Shuliang LI, Wei HUANG, Feng YAN, Jisi FU, bin XIONG

“…The intelligent optimization algorithm is a multidimensional linkage random search, which boasts a vast optimization space but suffers from low optimization efficiency. Therefore, this study introduces a constraint processing approach that integrates a penalty function with nested DPSA–POA and intelligent algorithms and applies it to the optimal flood control operation problem of cascade reservoirs in the middle reaches of the Ganjiang River, with decision variables extending to 2196 dimensions. …”

An assessment of the likely impact of strain-related phenotypic plasticity on hominin fossil species identification by M. Collard, S.J. Lycett

“…We divided the measurements into three groups: measurements of features subject to high masticatory strain, measurements of features subject to low-to-moderate masticatory strain, and measurements of features that do not remodel and therefore are not prone to strain-related phenotypic plasticity. Next, we used the coefficient of variation and ANOVA to investigate whether masticatory strain is a cause of variability. …”
