A comment is made on a recent letter published on Nature, in which different methodologies are applied to estimate the carbon balance of terrestrial ecosystems of China.A global carbon sink of 0.19-0.26 Pg Hanging Organiser per year is estimated during the 1980s and 1990s, and it is estimated that in 2006 terrestrial ecosystems have absorbed 28-37

The well-documented human bias toward agency as a cause and therefore an explanation of observed events is typically attributed to evolutionary selection for a social brain.Based on a review of developmental and adult behavioral and neurocognitive data, it is argued that the bias toward agency is a result of the default human solution, developed Ob

The paper proposes effective method of computer network protection from data exfiltration by the system of domain names.Data exfiltration by Domain Name System (DNS) is an approach to conceal the transfer of confidential data to remote adversary using data encapsulation into the requesting domain Stickers name.The DNS requests that transfer stolen

The analysis of dissolved gases in insulation oil is of great significance to transformer status evaluation.In this paper, a chromatographic detector based on the nano-tin oxide fiber as well as a chromatography system is developed.The mechanism of the sensor for detecting six component feature gases (i.e., H2, CO, CH4, C2H4, C2H6, and C2H2) in tra

Anthropogenic landscapes can be rich in resources, and may in some cases provide potential habitat for species whose natural habitat has declined.We used remote videography to assess whether reintroducing individuals of the threatened New Zealand falcon Falco novaeseelandiae into a highly modified agricultural habitat affected the feeding rates of
