Nutrient loss from three small-size watersheds in the southern Baltic Sea in relation to agricultural practices and policy
PublicationAgriculture is the major contributor of waterborne nutrient fluxes into the Baltic Sea, one of the world’s most eutrophication-sensitive areas. Poland, as a large, densely populated state ohf the Baltic Region, with dominating agricultural land use, largely contributes to riverborne loads of N and P. The aim of our study was to examine the input of nutrients from three small first-order agricultural watersheds (Bladzikowski Stream,...

A study on the interaction of rhodamine B with methylthioadenosine phosphorylase protein sourced from an Antarctic soil metagenomic library.
PublicationThe presented study examines the phenomenon of the fluorescence under UV light excitation (312 nm) of E. coli cells expressing a novel metagenomic-derived putative methylthioadenosine phosphorylase gene, called rsfp, grown on LB agar supplemented with a fluorescent dye rhodamine B. For this purpose, an rsfp gene was cloned and expressed in an LMG194 E. coli strain using an arabinose promoter. The resulting RSFP protein was purified...

Sawing frozen wood with narrow kerf saws: Energy and quality effects.
PublicationOpór skrawania zależy podczas przecinania nie tylko od wilgotności drewna lecz również od jego temperatury. W pracy przedstawiono wyniki badań eksperymentalnych przecinania drewna sosnowego zmrożonego na pilarce ramowej wielopiłowej. Dla porównania wykonano również testy dla drewna o temperaturze pokojowej. Czynnikami badanymi były: moc skrawania, dokładność przecinania w postaci grubości elementów, a także chropowatość powierzchni....

Quality of service games in an IEEE 802.11 ad hoc wireless LAN
PublicationW pracy wykazano, że gdy wymaganie na minimalną przepływnośc stacji przekracza wielkość wyznaczoną przez punkt optimum w sensie Pareto, okazjonalna egoistyczna konfiguracja MAC pozwala stacjom uczestniczyć w grze typu kolejkowego, w której wypłatą jest uzyskana przepływność. Zaprezentowano przykładowe scenariusze takiej gry oraz dokonano jej analizy przy pomocy modelu gry stochastycznej, wykazując istnienie punktu równowagi oraz...
