Enumeration Degrees of the Bounded Sets by Boris Y. Solon

“…The term ``total enumeration degree'' is related to the fact that the e-degree is total if and only if it contains a graph of some total function. In a number of works by the author and a group of mathematicians from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the so-called ``graph-cototal enumeration degrees'' were considered, i.e. e-degrees containing the complement of the graph of some total function $f(x)$. …”

Marine ranching enhances ecosystem stability and biological carbon sequestration potential: insights from Ecopath with Ecosim model simulation of 30-year ecological path of a natio... by Jiale Yan, Jiale Yan, Yan Chen, Yingkun Cao, Yingkun Cao, Jiamin Sun, Bin Wen, Xiaowei Gao, Xiaowei Gao, Gang Wang, Gang Wang, Lixin Gong, Lixin Gong, Huixin Liu, Huixin Liu, Qian Li, Qian Li, Xiujin Liu, Xiujin Liu, Jiabo Zhang, Jiabo Zhang, Zepeng Li, Zepeng Li, Futang Ma, Futang Ma, Haien Zhang, Weidong Li, Zhe Pan, Zhe Pan

“…IntroductionMarine ranching is an effective marine ecosystem protection measure that not only helps protect marine resources, but also has an important carbon sink function.MethodsThis study took the Haizhidu marine ranching in the Bohai sea of China as the research object, constructed 20 functional groups in the area, and used the ecosystem model Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) and stable isotopes (δ13C and δ15N) to model the system, evaluate the biological structure, energy transfer efficiency, and ecological carrying capacity (ECC) of different functional groups in the system, and calculate the carbon sequestration potential when shellfish reach ECC and the impact of marine ranching construction on system stability and maturity.Results and DiscussionThe results of the study on the characteristic parameters of the marine ranching system show that in the Haizhidu marine ranching ecosystem, the functional group with the highest biomass is the sediment detritus functional group (37.75 t/km2), followed by phytoplankton (21.40 t/km2), and the lowest is the other pelagic fishes (0.26 t/km2); the highest trophic level is the Platycephalus indicus (3.70), followed by the 3.43 of Sebastes schlegelii and cephalopods; the energy transfer efficiency is mainly concentrated in the trophic levels I and II. …”
