High-altitude wetlands (above 4200 m) in the northwest of Argentina are considered pristine and extreme environments. Micrococcus sp. A1, H5, and V7, isolated from such environments, were shown to contain linear megaplasmids, ...

We analyze the influence of time-, firm-, industry- and country-level determinants of capital structure. First, we apply hierarchical linear modeling in order to assess the relative importance of those levels. We find that ...

We characterize the hermitian levels of quaternion and octonion algebras and of an 8-dimensional algebra D over the ground field F, constructed using a weak version of the Cayley-Dickson double process. It is shown that ...

Considering the importance of topographic surveys to determine soil volumes and study efficient and accessible alternatives for this operation, this study aimed to analyze methods and respective equipment for planialtimetric ...

The world crisis generated by COVID-19 has had various repercussions at the global level. This situation invites us to reflect on our institutionality and the importance of the school within the processes of instability. ...

This paper presents the Latent Class Level-PCM as a method for identifying and interpretinglatent classes of respondents according to empirically estimated performance levels. The model,which combines elements from latent ...
