This paper is concerned with the guaranteed cost control problem for a class of Markov jump discrete-time neural networks (NNs) with event-triggered mechanism, asynchronous jumping, and fading channels. The Markov jump NNs are introduced to be close to reality, where the modes of the NNs and guaranteed cost controller are determined by two mutually independent Markov chains. The asynchronous phenomenon is considered, which increases the difficulty of designing required mode-dependent controller. The event-triggered mechanism is designed by comparing the relative measurement error with the last triggered state at the process of data transmission, which is used to eliminate dispensable transmission and reduce the networked energy consumption. In addition, the signal fading is considered for the effect of signal reflection and shadow in wireless networks, which is modeled by the novel Rice fading models. Some novel sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee that the closed-loop system reaches a specified cost value under the designed jumping state feedback control law in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, some simulation results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

To better understand the toxicity of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), its effects on the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans were investigated. Following a step and repeated chronic exposure from L4-larvae to day-10 adult, physiology endpoints (growth and locomotion behaviors including head thrashes, body bends and pumping rate), biochemical endpoints (reactive oxygen species, superoxide dismutase activity, catalase activity), and molecular stress-related gene expression were tested at environmentally relevant concentrations of TBBPA (0.01-100 mu g/L). The results showed that concentrations of TBBPA greater than 10 mu g/L, clearly influenced the physiology behaviors (growth and locomotion endpoints). Under repeated exposure, C. elegans exhibited adaptive responses in head thrashes and pumping rate. Compared to toxicity evaluation following repeated chronic exposure, a significantly greater response was induced at the same concentration following a step chronic exposure. Reactive oxygen species production was significantly enhanced following a step and repeated TBBPA exposure at the concentrations of 1 and 10 mu g/L, respectively. qRT-PCR showed that ctl-1, ctl-2, ctl-3 and sod-3 expression significantly increased, which was obviously correlated with physiological and biochemical behaviors under both treatment conditions according to Pearson correlation test analysis. sod-3 and ctl-2 mutations were more sensitive than the wild-type N2 under a step chronic TBBPA exposure at a level of 10 mu g/L. Thus, chronic exposure to TBBPA induces an oxidative stress response in C. elegans, with ctl-2 and sod-3 playing a vital role in TBBPA-induced toxicity in nematodes.

Small features in ecological systems are often underrepresented in conservation monitoring, management and policy. Tree cavities and other forms of refuge play disproportionately large ecological roles due to their importance for shelter and rearing vulnerable offspring. Giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) cubs are highly altricial, and dependent on dens. In Fengtongzai-a reserve with cavity-containing old growth forest-we measured 19 structural and microhabitat variables in potential tree dens. We also established data loggers in rock cavities in Foping Nature Reserve (which due to logging does not contain old growth) and tree cavities in Fengtongzai to monitor temperature and humidity inside and outside dens to evaluate microclimatic buffering. Fengtongzai pandas selected tree dens that were better concealed, with large interiors and entrances but smaller entrance to interior ratios. Microclimate inside dens differed dramatically from ambient conditions outside: in cold weather dens were warmer, in hot weather dens were cooler, dens were less humid and dens had more stable microclimates. Dens used by maternal pandas were warmer, drier and less variable than tree and rock cavities that were not used. Tree dens showed better capacity to buffer against extremes of temperature and humidity than did cave dens. Our findings have important conservation implications, including the value of den sites and the need for better monitoring and management. Specifically, management practices that preserve large old trees may increase carrying capacity and any experimentation with artificial dens as a conservation intervention should reference our findings on structural and microclimatic characteristics of preferred den sites.
