The Far-INfrarEd Spectrometer for Surface Emissivity (FINESSE) – Part 2: First measurements of the emissivity of water in the far-infrared [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques
In this paper, we describe a method for retrieving the surface emissivity of specular surfaces across the wavenumber range of 400–1600 cm−1 using novel radiance measurements of the Far-INfrarEd Spectrometer for Surface Emissivity (FINESSE) instrument ...

Using the Incomplete Self-Similarity Method for Estimation of the Conjugate Depth Ratio of Density Jumps on Smooth and Rough Beds [PDF]

مهندسی منابع آب, 2016
Density current is produced because of a density contrast with the ambient fluid. This density difference can result from dissolved solids, suspended materials, temperature, etc.

Effect of elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration on growth and leaf litter decomposition of Quercus acutissima and Fraxinus rhynchophylla. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) level is expected to increase substantially, which may change the global climate and carbon dynamics in ecosystems. We examined the effects of an elevated atmospheric CO2 level on the growth of Quercus acutissima and ...

On the correlation between earthquake coda horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratios and amplification functions at the KiK-net network

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The Japanese KiK-net network comprises about 700 stations spread across the whole territory of Japan. For most of the stations, VP and VS profiles were measured down to the bottom borehole station.

The impact of leukocyte‐associated RNA retention on platelet RNA‐based cancer detection

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Platelets carry RNA signals that may help detect cancer, but platelet samples can also retain RNA from white blood cells. We found that this retained white blood cell signal did not significantly affect machine learning cancer classification, suggesting that the cancer‐related RNA signal in platelets is largely independent of leukocyte‐associated RNA ...

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Estimating Sheet Flow Velocities Using Quinine as a Fluorescent Tracer: Bare, Mulched, Vegetated and Paved Surfaces

Agronomy, 2022
When direct flow velocity measurements are not feasible, the use of tracers can be a valuable tool. In the present study, both laboratory and field experiments were conducted to evaluate the applicability of quinine as a fluorescent tracer for estimating

Generative Artificial Intelligence in Clinical Practice: How Should Rheumatologists Evaluate and Monitor Emerging Tools?

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being used in rheumatology practice, to assist with tasks such as documentation, record summarization, and clinical decision support. Rheumatologists need a practical approach to determining what evidence and oversight each application requires.
