  Fecal coliforms are important fecal indicator bacteria which are commonly monitored weekly especially in oyster harvest areas according to requirements of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).This study is intended to predict daily levels of fecal coliforms in oyster harvest waters by identifying environmental factors controlling the transport and fate of fecal coliforms and developing a predictive model.Our results,based on a stepwise regression analysis,indicate that fecal coliform levels are highly affected by wind,salinity,tide,water temperature,rainfall,and solar radiation.

随着医疗体制改革的不断深化,以及医疗服务水平的不断提高,患者对医院环境的需求也越来越高,加之很多医院面临等级复审或JCA评审及创建文明城市等方面的需要,很多大型医院的基础设施已经不能适应现代化医院管理的发展,必须加快建设与维修的步伐以适应医院快速发展的需要,因此,医院零星工程改造项目日益增多,主要集中在改扩建和零星维修工程,由于大多项目任务重、施工时间紧、增补或更新项目随机性大,使得零星基建工程全
