Chlorophyll a concentrations were steady or decreased slightly in darkness after one day or one week incubation. Chlorophyll a concentrations showed an initial decline when exposed to natural light after one week incubation in darkness, and then increased significantly. In a salinity experiment, the maximal growth rate was observed at a dilution ratio of 10%, however, higher dilution ratios (≥0%) had an obvious negative effect on phytoplankton growth. We suggest that the phytoplankton communities in fjords in late summer are dark- ness adapted, and the inflow of glacial melt water is favorable for phytoplankton growth in the outer fiords where the influence of freshwater is limited.展开更多

Quantization is the source of information loss in JPEG compression process. Therefore, information hidden in images is probably destroyed by JPEG compression. This paper presents an algorithm to reliably embed information into the JPEG bit streams in the process of JPEG encoding. Information extraction is performed in the process of JPEG decoding. The basic idea of our algorithm is to modify the quantized direct current (DC) coefficients and non zero alternating currenl (AC) coefficients to represent one bit information (0 or 1 ). Experimental results on gray images using baseline sequential JPEG encoding show that the cover images (images without scoret information) and the stego-images (images with secret information) are perceptually indiscernible.展开更多
