ESTIMATING THE INFLUENTIAL IMPACT SHARE OF REDUCING HOUSEHOLD ENERGY CONSUMPTION ACROSS DIFFERENT SECTORS AIMED AT INCREASING CUMULATIVE PROFITS IN IRAN: A NON-LINEAR PROGRAMMING OPTIMIZATION APPROACH

Estimating the influential impact share of reducing household energy consumption across different sectors aimed at increasing cumulative profits in Iran: A non-linear programming optimization approach

Energy intensity is one of the most important energy feature that has a dramatic value in energy system of Iran.Indeed, Iran is one of the most energy intensive countries in the world and its main reason is related to high energy consumption in household section.In this article, we present a non-linear model that considers three scenarios in manage

Physiological characteristics of high yield under cluster planting: photosynthesis and canopy microclimate of cotton

Cotton produces more biomass and economic yield when cluster planting pattern (three plants per hole) than in a traditional planting pattern (one plant per hole), even at similar plant densities, indicating that individual plant growth is promoted by cluster planting.The causal factors for this improved growth induced by cluster planting pattern, t

Butterfly Density and Behaviour in Uncut Hay Meadow Strips: Behavioural Ecological Consequences of an Agri-Environmental Scheme.

Sparing zones from mowing has been proposed, and applied, to improve local conditions for survival and reproduction of insects in hay meadows.However, little is known about the efficiency of refuge zones and the consequences for local populations.We studied population densities of butterflies before and after mowing in the refuge zone of 15 meadows

Morphological and Transcriptome Analysis of the Near-Threatened Orchid Habenaria radiata with Petals Shaped Like a Flying White Bird

Orchids have evolved flowers with unique morphologies yocan cubex coils through coevolution with pollinators, such as insects.Among the floral organs, the lip (labellum), one of the three petals, exhibits a distinctive shape and plays a crucial role in attracting pollinators and facilitating pollination in many orchids.The lip of the terrestrial or
