uniform—rather, each hurricane is a collection of individual storms. Hurricane season runs from June to November, but most occur between August and October (“Hurricanes,” 2013). Each hurricane is ranked on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane damage Potential scale, from a Category 1 to a Category 5; those Category 3 and larger are called major hurricanes (Abbott,…
Animal deaths, especially from anthropogenic causes, are valuable indicators of ecological and conservation problems that span a particular population (Collins 2011). Deer mortalities are no exception to this rule of thumb, as deer-vehicle collisions (DVCs) are a growing problem in the US and reflect the displacement of deer populations. Over 1 million DVCs occur in the US annually and result in the loss of human life, human injury, and considerable financial costs resulting from the vehicle…
Should digits on a weight scale determine a modeling career? Models are the society’s way of expressing today’s most current fashion statements. However, to present good fashion one must meet society’s beauty standards right? That is wrong. We should be promoting beauty on all sizes, colors and races. Models should not have a minimum weight limit because it puts a border line on beauty, lowers self-esteem and even though it helps prevent eating disorders it also supports society’s negative body…
Methods Field Methods This study was carried out on a rocky scar below Ravenscar, North Yorkshire (54°24'27.82"N, 0°29'31.45"W). This scar stretches out into the sea and acts as a wind break from prevailing winds. Most of the scar is covered by water during high tide, but during low tide a different percentage of the scar is uncovered depending on whether it is a neap (~40% uncovered) or spring tide (~90% uncovered). This survey, to determine the haul out behaviour of the Ravenscar seal colony,…
contact you to share some research ideas I propose in the context of my application to the Yerby postdoctoral fellowship program for which I suggested you as faculty mentors. The proposal I presented consists on developing theory-based and data-driven models of health complexity for contributing to the health theoretical development, providing coherence and context to fragmented evidence of health practice, and bringing closer health theory and facts. I briefly described this proposal in my…
section “Improving the modelling of HIV transmission” where Johnson is finishing the section with a reference to Garnett and Bowden paper for further information. The main work that Johnson is building his conclusions on is The ASSA 2000 Suite of models. He mentions it at the beginning of section 4, “Improving the modelling of HIV transmission”. On top of the publications made by others, Johnson is using statistical distributions and mathematical formulae in the paper, and he does that without…

Type of research: Correlational Study Level of research: Level IV, Melnyk Purpose of the authors The purpose of the authors was to investigate whether Facebook social comparison differs when examining close friends versus distant friends. They also examined self-esteem as a potential additional moderator of the Facebook social comparison process. Information that supports a problem Facebook has become the most popular social media platform worldwide. Multiple evidences demonstrated that…
experimental room with a blood pressure cuff to view a video of tropical fish and soft music for 10 minutes. Following the video researchers gave participants the betrayal interview. After the interview participants complete the Act of Forgiveness Scale and the TRIM Inventory. Once completed researchers permit participants a 7 minute recovery time period before given the brief structured interview. Data Analysis Methods (specify statistical analyses used) Data is collected, hand-scored, and…
nightingale mentioned in the poem of the song, and in song no. 7 (fig. 5). Fig. 3: Motive x embedded in the pastoral melody of song no. 1. Fig. 4: The extended version of motive x is played by the English horn in song no. 6. The first and the fifth scale degrees extend the basic motive x in song no. 7 as shown in fig. 5. In addition, the basic motive x also appears throughout song no. 7 with many different alterations while maintaining the ascending five pitches. The diminution of the…
