Demographic and socio–economic factors affecting contraceptive use in Malawi
(KRE Publishers, 2014)Malawi has one of the highest Contraceptive Prevalence Rates (CPR) in sub-Saharan Africa. However, fertility remains high and fertility decline is slow. This paper uses data from the 2000 and ... -
Demographic structure and genetic diversity of Mauremys leprosa in its northern range reveal new populations and a mixed origin
(Deutsche Gesellschaft für Herpetologie und Terrarienkunde, 2015)Freshwater turtle species are still poorly understood, and many species are in decline due to unsustainable trade as well as human alteration and degradation of freshwater ecosystems. Mauremys leprosa is a freshwater ... -
Demokratisering en standaardisering – Teenstrydige doelwitte vir inheemse tale?
(Suid-Afrikaanse Akademie vir Wetenskap en Kuns, 2011)At fi rst blush, the two concepts, democratisation and standardisation, seem to be in confl ict if the objectives underlying the processes they describe are compared, in particular if they are applied to the fi eld of ... -
Demonstrating an interpretive data collection and analysis process for a DSR project
(Czech institute of academic education z.s, 2014)Design science research has two essential processes, design and evaluation, supported by various approaches. Two of these activities, namely problem identification and evaluation, require qualitative data to be gathered ... -
Demonstrating the benefits of impact assessment for proponents
(Taylor & Francis, 2015)This paper is a call for more studies that explicitly demonstrate the benefits of impact assessment to proponents. While the community of impact assessment practitioners generally believe that impact assessment is beneficial ... -
Demonstrating the value and importance of combining DNA barcodes and discriminant morphological characters for polystome taxonomy (Platyhelminthes, Monogenea)
(Elsevier, 2018)Polystomes are monogenean parasites that infest mainly semi aquatic vertebrates, such as amphibians and chelonians. Owing to the lack of discriminative morphological characters and because polystomes are considered to be ... -
Den frühchristlichen Wundergeschichten Sinn für die Gegenwart entlocken
(University of Catholique Louvain, 2015)Rudolf Bultmann setzte sein Gegenwartsverständnis dem Glauben an Wunder radikal entgegen. Ein Weltbild, das Raum für Wunder hatte, war in seiner Diktion 'erledigt'. So näherte er sich den frühchristlichen Wundergeschichten ... -

Density and speed of sound measurements of imidazolium-based ionic liquids with acetonitrile at various temperatures
(2014)In the present study, the interactions between acetonitrile and imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ILs) were discussed in terms of density (ρ) and speed of sound (u) measurements. The ILs used in this study were 1-ethyl-3- ... -
Density and speed of sound of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulphate with acetic or propionic acid at different temperatures
