The role of ASM on the formation and properties of cirrus clouds over the Tibetan Plateau
Cirrus clouds play a significant role in the Earth’s energy balance and in the hydrological cycle of the atmosphere. Here, a high-performance Micro Pulse Lidar was continuously used to investigate cirrus cloud formation and characteristics at Ali (32.50 ...

Caveolin-3 differentially orchestrates cholinergic and serotonergic constriction of murine airways [PDF]
The mechanisms of controlling airway smooth muscle (ASM) tone are of utmost clinical importance as inappropriate constriction is a hallmark in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Holotranscobalamin Is a Useful Marker of Vitamin B12 Deficiency in Alcoholics
Background. Measurement of serum cobalamin (Cbl) levels is the standard investigation for assessing vitamin B12 deficiency. Falsely increased values of Cbl can be caused by alcoholic liver disease.

A model of the basic components in the seismic Vrancea zone
Seismic processes occur and develop temporally and spatially under the action of internal determinism of global tectonics. Uncertainties related to interlacement of internal physical fields of the Earth and gravity forces of celestial bodies and their ...

A probabilistic approach to Zhang's sandpile model [PDF]
The current literature on sandpile models mainly deals with the abelian sandpile model (ASM) and its variants. We treat a less known - but equally interesting - model, namely Zhang's sandpile. This model differs in two aspects from the ASM.

Influence of grain-refiner addition on the morphology of fe-bearing intermetallics in a semi-solid processed Al-Mg-Si alloy [PDF]
© The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society and ASM International 2013The three-dimensional morphologies of the Fe-bearing intermetallics in a semisolid-processed Al-Mg-Si alloy were examined after extracting the intermetallics. α -AlFeSi and β-AlFeSi are

Towards an ASM thesis for reflective sequential algorithms
Starting from Gurevich's thesis for sequential algorithms (the so-called "sequential ASM thesis"), we propose a characterization of the behaviour of sequential algorithms enriched with reflection.

Evaluating two concepts for the modelling of intermediates accumulation during biological denitrification in wastewater treatment [PDF]
The accumulation of the denitrification intermediates in wastewater treatment systems is highly undesirable, since both nitrite and nitric oxide (NO) are known to be toxic to bacteria, and nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas and an ozone ...

Outbursts, State Transitions, and Periodicities Observed with the RXTE All-Sky Monitor
Results from the All-Sky Monitor (ASM) on the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer are reviewed. A number of recurrent transient sources have been detected, while only a few previously unreported sources have been discovered.
