Differential Sensitivity of Photosynthetic Electron Transport to Dark-Induced Senescence in Wheat Flag Leaves by Cheng Yang, Simeng Du, Yanhua Shi, Deqi Zhang, Junqin Yue, Xiangdong Li, Haiyang Jin, Baoting Fang, Fang Wei, Zishan Zhang, Ge Yan

“…The extent of the observed decrease in activity of the different components of the photosynthetic electron transport chain during senescence, was consistent with the chlorophyll degradation rate of the wheat cultivars, while the priority of inhibition for different photosynthetic electron transport processes in each cultivar group was different. The results from the three separate signals align well with each other. …”

Reflexive Methods of Knowledge in Educational Activities: Phenomenological Hermeneutics by T. N. Korneenko

“…It is obvious that structural formation and improvement of ways of students’ thinking is one of the most important tasks of the educational system; reflection is of particular importance. However, the results of training are still defined by the level of development of easily measured operational skills and cognitive qualities (memory, attention, logic), in which the reflection is presented only partially. …”

Model and long-term coherent accumulation basic algorithm for the reflected signal with non-zero higher derivative range to radar target by S. V. Kozlov, Le Van Cuong

“…The purpose of the work was to substantiate a mathematical model of the signal reflected from moving radar target at the time of its observation, which determines the need to take into account the range migration and its derivatives up to the third order, inclusive, and the Doppler frequency migration, and the basic algorithm of long-term coherent accumulation for the reflected signal. …”
