In addition, the native vegetation in these habitats may have a similar structure and water-use characteristics offsetting the gains from clearing and resulting in little or no net (incremental) change in water-use (Scott 1999; Doody et al. 2011).
The first characteristic of offset printing is that the printing and the nonprinting elements are parts of a single continuous surface.
The second characteristic of offset printing is that the ink is not transferred directly from the printing form to the paper but is first transferred to a rubber blanket.
The heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics in offset strip-fin microchannels heat sinks are analyzed and the heat transfer enhancement mechanism is discussed.
Its superior sonic characteristics were offset by its moderate power handling, and the need for a relatively large space in which to "breathe".
143), Mr. Queyras's deep, rich hues and Mr. Tharaud's extroverted pianism yielded a reading in which the composer's characteristic urbanity was offset by an almost Shostakovichian satirical spirit.
Among these material systems, GaSb/GaAs quantum dot [QD] is an outstanding representative since its giant valence band offset, characteristic to this system, may result in practical applications for light-emitting devices in the spectral range of 1 to approximately 1.5 μm, such as in ophthalmology, neurology, and endoscopy [18].
Conventional five-contact VHS (5CVHS) have shown strongly nonlinear offset characteristics due to the junction field effect combined with an inherent electrical asymmetry which have prevented efficient offset compensation by current spinning.
Based on the analysis on angular offset characteristics of the UMi scenario and the impact of eNB transmitter antenna pattern on the interference modeling, it is concluded that the existing GBSM model, e.g., IMT-Advanced UMi channel model, leads to underestimated intra-site interference.
Electricity grid infrastructures provides valuable flexibility in power systems with high shares of variable supply due to its ability to distribute low-cost supply to load centers (spatial), in addition to interlinking a variety of supply and demand characteristics that potentially offset each others negative impact on system balance (temporal).
Lipid emulsions were tried, but failed to produce an agent with suitable onset and offset characteristics.
