Sampling and Sampling Distributions

The sediment quality assessment showed that trace element concentrations were lower than the limited values in the sediment quality guideline (QCVN 43:2017/BTNMT). According to the Igeo index, the sediments were not polluted by Cu, Pb, Zn, Cr, Fe, and As but were likely polluted by Hg and Mn in some sampling sites. Therefore, it is necessary to invest the future studies to assess the Hg and Mn concentration levels in these sites to protect the marine environment.

The objective of this study was to investigate the distribution and prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in wild free ranging peafowls living in Virudhunagar and Tirunelveli districts of Southern Tamilnadu, through cross-sectional survey. A total of 72 freshly voided faecal samples were collected randomly from wild free ranging peafowls of either sex and of different age groups and were examined by direct faecal smear; flotation and sedimentation techniques to detect parasitic oocysts and/or eggs.

At a temperature of 300 K, both Ni and Cu atoms are crystallized into the face-centered cubic (FCC) and the hexagonal close-packed (HCP) phases, respectively. The mechanical characteristics of the sample at 300 K were also analyzed in detail through the determination of elastic modulus, number of atoms, and void distribution during the tensile process.

In this paper we study the development of handwriting ability of primary school students by investigating the number of errors appearing in their transcription. More precisely, 1557 primary school students were asked to copy a paragraph in a period of time and then the errors in their samples were collected and statistically analyzed.

A study on species composition and density of polychaete (Polychaeta) was investigated in mangrove eco-system, Da Loc commune, Hau Loc District, Thanh Hoa province. Samples were collected in April, July, and November, 2010, from cross-sections of Len estuary and mangrove forests. A total of 15 polychaete species, belonging to 11 genera, 9 families and two groups of settlers (Sedentaria) and mobile (Errantia), were recorded in the study areas.

In order to distribute earnings to shareholders, besides cash dividend, the firms can also buy back shares. However, compared to cash dividends, share repurchases are less common. Therefore, the thesis only focuses on cash dividend policy of the firms. Specifically, the thesis studies the dividend payment policy of 460 firms listed on HSX and HNX between 2010 and 2016. The data is collected from 2009 to 2017. The data needed for research is extracted from the Datastream database. The final sample includes 2,653 firmyear observations.

The objective of this article is to determine if companies located in Cameroon manipulate their earnings to avoid publishing low losses. Based on a sample of 1,525 companies observed over a three-year period and using statistical tools such as normality histograms and statistical tests, we arrive at the results below. First, we note that there is indeed a discontinuity in the distribution of corporate earnings at the threshold of zero.

For hundreds of years, business people have been transmitting their wisdom generation to generation. In the middle 1990’s companies started to create units focused in managing their knowledge. Nowadays, Knowledge Management is still a relatively new discipline focused in developing the main competitive advantage that organizations have: the intellectual assets. Organizations recognise that Social Media can be enormously used to influence their customers. However, they exactly do not know how to confront this new tool.

The sepiolite support possesses fibrous structure. X-ray diffraction analysis pointed out that the TiO2 particles are firmly distributed on fibrous sepiolite matrix. All TiO2/sepiolite samples were tested for the degradation of rhodamine B and showed a high catalytic activity. The experimental data showed that the degradation efficiency of rhodamine B is correlated with the amount of TiO2 loadings and oxidant behavior. At room temperature, the conversion of rhodamine B reaches to 99-100 % over 6.0 wt% TiO2/sepiolite catalyst.

In the Pt/
-Al2O3 catalysts, the distribution of uniform, small particle-size Pt metal on the carrier with high surface area of metal will result in high catalytic activities and will economize noble metals. The distribution of metal depends on the technology of preparation and postpreparation. The influences of the impregnating, drying, calcining and reducing on the distribution of metal have been studied using by physic methods, scan electronic microscope (SEM), transmission electronic microscope (TEM), and the hydrogen distribution has been measured by the method of hydrogen absorption.

Al-MSU mesoporous materials were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal treatment using water glass as a Si-sources. The obtained samples were characterized by different techniques such as x-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared resonance (IR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The specific surface area (SBET) and mesopore volume, pore size distribution were determined by BET method. The results showed that the Al-MSU mesoporous materials were hexagonal p6mm structure.

This thesis has been done in an effort to investigate how euphemism is translated from English into Vietnamese in translated works as well as to find out what are the main approaches taken by translators in translating euphemism from English into Vietnamese. A collection of samples taken from literary works written in English and their Vietnamese versions have been analyzed to explore ways in which euphemisms are transferred. Besides, quantitative analyses have also been carried out to show distribution of ways of translating, on the basis of which to identify preferences....
