Optimizing ship energy efficiency is a crucial measure for reducing fuel use and emissions in the shipping industry.Accurate prediction models of ship energy consumption are essential for achieving this optimization.However, external factors affecting ship fuel consumption have not been comprehensively investigated, and many existing studies still
Cancer is still a major barrier to life expectancy increase worldwide, and hematologic neoplasms represent a relevant percentage of cancer incidence rates.Tumor dependence of continuous proliferative signals mediated through protein kinases overexpression instigated Skate Profile increased strategies of kinase inhibition in the oncologic practice o
The biodiversity of coral reef habitats is rapidly declining due to the effects of anthropogenic climate change, prompting the use of active restoration as a mitigation strategy.Sexual propagation can maintain or enhance genetic diversity in restoration of these ecosystems, but these approaches suffer from a range of inefficiencies in beeswax wrap
