Audit Rotation And Earnings Quality: An Analysis Using Discretionary Accruals by Adalene Olivia Silvestre, Cristiano Machado Costa, Clóvis Antônio Kronbauer

“…This article aims to measure the effect of the audit firm rotation on the earnings quality of Brazilian public companies listed on BM&FBOVESPA in the period from 2008 to 2015. We use discretionary accruals as a measure of earnings quality, using two approaches: earnings management and the estimation errors. …”

Simultaneous control for the heat equation with Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions by Burq, Nicolas, Moyano, Ivan

“…It is well known that both the heat equation with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions are null controlable as soon as the control acts in a non trivial domain (i.e. a set of positive measure). In this article, we show that for any couple of initial data $(u_0, v_0)$ we can achieve the null control for both equations (Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions respectively) simultaneously with the same control function for both equations.…”

Identification and Isolation of Mollisols in Savadkooh region by N Khakipour, A Akhgar, A Bapiri, A Alipour, AA Miarkolaie

“…The results showed, because of high organic matter and presence of other conditions in forest area, Mollisols were dominant soils in Savadkooh region. Although, we detected 40% Inceptisols, but the similarity of these soils to each other, we guess landuse change, is the main cause to lack of mollic epipedon and decrease in organic matter. …”

Mary Colter au Grand Canyon ou l’invention d’un paysage by Patrick Pérez

“…Yet it took four centuries to form the vision of this landscape as we know and share it today. Discovered in 1540, the Canyon was immediately forgotten before becoming in the middle of the 19th century the focus of minutely detailed scientific exploration and in the beginning of the 20th century an American monument. …”
