It is noted, that the biomass of luminous organisms closely correlate with the biomass of plankton and other pelagic creatures, including commercial pelagic fish. The parameters of the basic biological rhythms of plankton communities are found using method of Fourier series. These rhythms leads to change of intensity of the bioluminescence field. It is shown, that the change of the intensity of bioluminescence field with a 14 hours period due to duration of photo- and dark- periods. Changes in the intensity of the bioluminescence fields with periods of 4.7 and 2.8 hours due to endogenous circadian rhythms of plankton community. An original method for evaluation of errors of periods found of biological rhythms was proposed. The correlation coefficient between measured and calculated values of the intensity of the bioluminescence fields was estimated, taking into account the influence of three main biological rhythms, was r = 0.906, that confirms the correctness of the assumptions made.","PeriodicalId":93382,"journal":{"name":"The international journal of evidence & proof","volume":"1 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72566882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gillespie","doi":"10.1350/ijep.9.1.29.64790","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1350/ijep.9.1.29.64790","url":null,"abstract":"The law relating to child pornography in the United Kingdom has, over recent years, changed dramatically. These changes have been brought about by both legislation and case law. This article critically analyses the consequences of these changes and, in particular, considers the probity of apparent reverse burdens of proof created by the legislation. When the right to a fair trial is being examined, it is usual to balance the rights of the individual defendant and the rights of society to expect a smooth-running criminal justice system. The balancing act in this field is more complicated because those who are the subject of abusive images are the most vulnerable members of society, and thus the balance struck must not unduly constrain law enforcement agencies, preventing them from tackling the exploitation and abuse of children.","PeriodicalId":93382,"journal":{"name":"The international journal of evidence & proof","volume":"26 1","pages":"29 - 49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82626414","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
