Species delimitation of corals is one of the most challenging issues in coral reef ecology and conservation.Morphology can obscure evolutionary relationships, and molecular datasets are consistently revealing greater within-species diversity than currently understood.Most phylogenetic studies, however, have examined narrow geographic areas and phyl
Interim obturators are indicated during the postsurgical phases.It promotes Downstems surgical healing and serves as a temporary prosthesis to rehabilitate a patient with intra-oral surgical defect.Retention is gained by wiring, surgical suturing, and other noninvasive methods to enable functional rehabilitation and easy replacement with a permanen
Abstract Background Lower-than-expected incidence of HIV undermines sample size calculations and compromises the power of a HIV prevention trial.We evaluated the effectiveness of interim monitoring of HIV infection rates and on-going modification of recruitment strategies to enroll women at higher risk of HIV in the Cellulose Sulfate Phase III stud
We propose here a multiplex network approach to investigate simultaneously different types of dependency in complex datasets.In particular, Coat we consider multiplex networks made of four layers corresponding, respectively, to linear, nonlinear, tail, and partial correlations among a set of financial time series.We construct the sparse graph on ea
The prediction of rapid intensification (RI) T-Shirts in tropical cyclones (TCs) is a challenging problem.In this study, the RI process and factors contributing to it are compared for two TCs: an axis-symmetric case (Hurricane Irma, 2017) and an asymmetric case (Hurricane Michael, 2018).Both Irma and Michael became major hurricanes that made signif
