Numerous Multi-Wave Solutions of the Time-Fractional Boussinesq-like System via a Variant of the Extended Simple Equations Method (SEsM) by Elena V. Nikolova, Mila Chilikova-Lubomirova

“…The key developments over the original SEsM in the proposed analytical framework include the following: (1) an extension of the original SEsM by constructing the solutions of the studied FNPDEs as complex composite functions which combine two single composite functions, comprising the power series of the solutions of two simple equations or two special functions with different independent variables (different wave coordinates); (2) an extension of the scope of fractional wave transformations used to reduce the studied FNPDEs to different types of ODEs, depending on the physical nature of the studied FNPDEs and the type of selected simple equations. …”

Production of macrozoobenthos in the estuaries of Primorye by Nickolay V. Kolpakov

“…Mean annual P/B -ratio is 3.4, 1.1 and 0.4 for the polyhaline, mesohaline and oligohaline estuaries, respectively, that is conditioned by species composition of dominant taxonomic groups. Species composition of bivalve mollusks is the main factor of macrobenthic production variability: brackish clam Corbicula japonica with high biomass (up to 5 kg/m2) and low P/B -ratio (0.4-0.7, mean value ≈ 0.5) dominates in the mesohaline and oligohaline estuaries, while euryhaline marine bivalves as Macoma spp., Potamocorbula amurensis, Laternula marilina , and others dominate in the polyhaline estuaries though their biomass is relatively low (no more than 0.36 kg/m2), their P/B -ratio is 0.8-4.5. …”
