Minima Maxima
Architecture can provide unique, experiential spaces at varying sizes. In situations of housing scarcity or lack of affordability, design becomes imperative in crafting spaces that, while spartan and minimal, allows for variation and individuality to arise. In the context of an urban intervention, …

Substrate dependant survivorship of Ecklonia maxima, in southern African kelp communities
Several south-western Cape Ecklonia maxima communities were examined to determine their basic demography and the effects of substrate selection. Overall percentage substrate composition, stipe lengths and substrate attachment for all kelps were recorded at four sites off the Cape Peninsula. …

Maxima in strangeness observed in heavy ion collisions using statistical models
Nucleus-Nucleus collisions enable the heating and compression of nuclei in order to probe matter under extreme temperature and energy density. With a resonance gas mode, of hadronic matter, Hagedorn came to the conclusion that on increasing the energy density, hadronic matter could exist above a …

Multifractal analysis of heart rate variability using wavelet-transform modulus-maxima method
… is to use the wavelet-transform modulus-maxima method for the multifractal analysis of the heart rate time senes. The degree of the multifractality is defined by the singularities (a point in time series where a mathematical function is not differentiable). For monofractal signals, the …

Biosynthesis of Cucurbita maxima trypsin inhibitor I in the methylophic yeast Pichia pastoris
… study of protein-protein interactions. Curcrbita maxima trypsin inhibitor I (CMTI I) may be thought of as representative of the squash inhibitors, for which there is detailed structural and functional information available. It is a 29 amino acid protein, with the tri-disulphide bridging pattern …

Investigations into the harvesting ecology of the South African kelp Ecklonia maxima (Alariaceae, Laminariales)
… by previous studies of South African Ecklonia maxima beds. Firstly, this thesis examined the distribution of kelp biomass, at various sites around the Cape Peninsula and on the west coast, and at different depths within sites. An attempt was made to calculate a single figure that could be used …

The stratification maxima of the seasonally varying Surface layer in the Arctic Ocean’s Beaufort Gyre
The Beaufort Gyre region of the Arctic Ocean is strongly stratified at the base of the wintertime mixed layer, which impedes the vertical transport of heat, energy, and other tracers. Ice-Tethered Profiler observations during 2004-2018 were used to characterize and investigate the seasonal and …

The phylogeny, biology and biogeography of the Southern African kelps Ecklonia maxima and Laminaria pallida
… Southern Hemisphere species (E. radiata, E. maxima and a sample of a putative E. brevipes specimen), sequences for East Asiatic species (E. cava, E. kurome and E. stolonifera), as well as the closely related genera Eckloniopsis and Eisenia. Results confirmed E. radiata and E. maxima as two …

Weed Control in Cucumber Cucumis sativus, Pumpkin Cucurbita maxima, and Summer Squash Cucurbita pepo with Halosulfuron
Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.), pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima Duch. ex Lam.), and summer squash (Cucurbita pepo L.) are economically important crops in Virginia. Only a few herbicides are registered for weed control in these crops. Halosulfuron is a sulfonylurea herbicide which controls several …

MORPHO-PHYSIOLOGICAL FACTORS AFFECTING PLANT PRODUCTIVITY IN BUSH AND VINE FORMS OF WINTER SQUASH (CUCURBITA MAXIMA DUCH)
<p>The productivity of a new bush winter squash cultivar ('Autumn Pride') was compared to that of 'Blue Hubbard', a high-yielding vine cultivar. Yields of 'Autumn Pride' increased with increasing plant density and, at high plant densities, were greater than yields of 'Blue Hubbard' at its near …

Analysis of protein content of two kelps, Ecklonia maxima and Laminaria pallida for feed in abalone aquaculture
… the west and southwest coasts with Ecklonia maxima reported as having a better Food Conversion Ratio (FCR) than Laminaria pallida. Total protein content and other nutritional components (Carbon, Nitrogen and moisture content) of two kelp species, E. maxima and L. pallida were investigated. …

Nutrient uptake and exudation patterns of nitrogenous substances and polyphenols in the kelp Ecklonia Maxima (Osbeck) Papenfuss
… and phosphate were studied in the kelp Ecklonia maxima (Phaeophyceae) in ex-situ experiments. It was found that exudation of organic materials only rarely followed a straight accumulatory trend ; fluctuations of kelp-derived substances occurred as a net result of pulsating production patterns …

Effects Of Thermal Acclimation On The Critical Thermal Maxima Of The Tropical Cockroaches: Blaptica Dubia, Eublaberus Posticus And Blaberus Discoidalis (blaberidae)
<p>The Critical Thermal Maxima (CTMax) is a measure of upper thermal tolerance. The physiological response upon reaching CTMax is similar across taxa, making CTMax useful in comparative studies. The CTMax defines the ecological lethal temperature of an organism and has been used to predict the …

Investigating the physiological and metabolomic effects of Ecklonia maxima-derived biostimulant foliar application in ameliorating the effects of heat shock in tomato plants
… on the brown algae (Phaeophyta), Ecklonia maxima (Osbeck) which grows and is harvested along the southern Atlantic coast of Africa. In this study, the aim was to assess and determine whether the prior foliar application of Ecklonia maxima-derived biostimulant on tomato plants could assist …
