Network-on-Chips (NoCs) are the de facto choice for designing interconnect fabric in multicore chips due to their regularity, efficiency, simplicity, and scalability. However, NoC suffers from excessive static power dynamic energy transistor leakage current data movement between cores caches. Power consumption issues only exacerbated by ever decreasing technology sizes. Dynamic Voltage Frequency Scaling (DVFS) is one technique that seeks reduce energy; however this often occurs at expense of...
Core Ideas Soil organic matter chemical composition highlighted the inputs of varied vegetation communities in past. N is an indicator peat decomposition based on relationship functional group C and total N. Future surveys soil biogeochemical parameters should be pursued. Climate change subarctic region has increased rate inundation peatlands due to temperatures, precipitation, permafrost thaw. Increased may result community shifts, as documented a mire near Abisko, Sweden. The wet fen have...
Physician burnout has received considerable attention in the literature and impacts a large number of emergency medicine physicians, but there is no standardized curriculum for wellness resident education. A culture change needed to educate about wellness, adopt preventative proactive approach, focus on resiliency.We describe novel approach education by focusing resiliency rather than unintended endpoint physician burnout. One barrier adoption been establishing legitimacy among (EM)...
Oyster and shoreline restoration is occurring around the globe to recover lost ecosystem services. In state of Florida, USA, dozens estuarine habitat projects are underway. These have traditionally relied on both natural man-made materials, including plastics. As impacts plastics marine ecosystems better understood, practitioners increasingly focused plastic-free restoration. To understand this transition, we surveyed Florida in April 2021 capture current non-plastic project trends their...
Near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy is a demonstrated tool for quantitative analysis of numerous soil properties. Reported advantages include analytical precision, predictive accuracy, and reduced costs processing times. A library (N = 1933) representing all major orders in Florida was assembled from samples submitted to the University Extension Soil Testing Laboratory routine testing during 2004-2005. High-resolution diffuse spectra each sample visible/near infrared were used predict...
Denitrification bioreactors have served as effective artificial N sinks by stimulating denitrification and remediating excessive nitrate. Predictions on bioreactor performance will be improved quantifying the relationship between rates causal factors which vary geography (temperature), land-use intensity (NO3 concentration) media type (carbon quality, quantity, surface area). Experimental mesocosms filled with different wood types (oak, pine), particle sizes wood–sand volume ratios were...
Natural shorelines provide ecosystem services that are integral to maintaining healthy and resilient coastal ecosystems communities. However, anthropogenic environmental stressors reducing the extent of natural shorelines, thus, their capacity critical services. Unfortunately, most common shoreline management strategies involve hardened structures (e.g., bulkheads seawalls) known impair ecosystems. Living offer a more environmentally friendly alternative this hardening. To increase adoption...
Nutrient loading from the Everglades Agricultural Area and nearby urban communities plus water flow rate canal size have significantly influenced amount of sediment phosphorus (P) pools stored in Water Conservation (WCA) canals Everglades. A study was conducted to characterize potential impact that sediments might on overlying column by conducting an inventory total P (TP) major forms all WCAs. Sediment samples depth measurements were taken at transects every 1.6‐km along reaches. volume...
To better manage legacy phosphorus (P) in watersheds, reliable techniques to predict P storage and release from uplands, ditches, streams, wetlands must be developed. Techniques such as the saturation ratio (PSR) soil capacity (SPSC), originally developed for upland soils, are hypothesized applicable wetland soils well. Surface were collected eight beef ranches within Lake Okeechobee Watershed, FL, obtain a threshold PSR value evaluate use of SPSC identifying soils. Water-soluble (WSP) was...
<h2>Abstract</h2> Program directors (PDs) are faced with an increasing number of applicants to emergency medicine (EM) and a limited positions. This article will provide candidates insight what PDs look for in applicant. We elaborate on the performance clerkship, interview, clinical rotations (apart from EM), board scores, Alpha Omega membership, letters recommendation, Medical Student Performance Evaluation or dean's letter, extracurricular activities, Gold Humanism Society medical school...
Abstract Peatlands play a critical role in the global carbon (C) cycle, encompassing ∼30% of 1,500 Pg C stored soils worldwide. However, this is vulnerable to climate and land‐use change. Ecosystem models predict impact perturbation on fluxes based soil pools, yet responses could vary markedly depending organic matter (SOM) chemistry. Here, we show that one SOM functional group responds strongly environmental factors predicts risk dioxide (CO 2 ) release from peatlands. The molecular...
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency created the Clean Water Action Plan to develop nutrient criteria for four water body types: lakes and reservoirs, rivers streams, estuaries, wetlands. Significant progress has been made in open systems. However, only areas around Florida Everglades have had numeric set, due complexity, heterogeneity, limited information available Our objective was evaluate various soil tests predict significant P release potential of A total 630 surface samples (0-10...
