A twofold development and demise of pine stands in the Netherlands during the Allerød interstadial: two hypotheses to explain a link to climate change recorded in Greenland ice

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The second half of the Allerød interstadial in the Netherlands is characterised by pine forest. Excavated trunks of 165 pine trees at Leusden‐Den Treek in the central Netherlands (LETR16) were dated by dendrochronology and radiocarbon. Two chronologically separated pine forest phases occurred during relatively warm periods as recorded in ...

Phase-resolved Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 Spectroscopy of the Weakly Irradiated Brown Dwarf GD 1400 and Energy Redistribution–Irradiation Trends in Six White Dwarf–Brown Dwarf Binaries

The Astrophysical Journal
Irradiated brown dwarfs offer a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between stellar and planetary atmospheres. We present high-quality Hubble Space Telescope/Wide Field Camera 3/G141 phase-resolved spectra of the white dwarf–brown dwarf binary GD 1400 ...

Origins of Brown Dwarfs

, 2005
The formation of objects below or close to the hydrogen burning limit is currently vividly discussed and is one of the main open issues in the field of the origins of stars and planets. Applying various observational techniques, we explored a sample of brown dwarfs and very low-mass stars in the ChaI star forming cloud at an age of only a few million ...

Can trigeminal sensations impact saltiness perception? A mini‐review

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Many food companies have begun to reduce the salt content in their products due to health concerns; however, this reduction in salt content can affect the food's sensory appeal and flavour complexity. Flavour is defined as a combination of odour (i.e., smell), taste (i.e., gustation) and trigeminal sensations (i.e., chemesthesis).

37 NEW T-TYPE BROWN DWARFS IN THE CANADA-FRANCE BROWN DWARFS SURVEY

The Astronomical Journal, 2011
The Canada-France Brown Dwarfs Survey is an i'- and z'-band survey realized with MegaCam at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope that covers a surface area of 780 deg2. Image analysis is now completed while J-band follow-up campaigns are ~90% done. The survey identified about 70 T dwarf candidates, of which 43 now have near-infrared spectra obtained with

On the Transformative Nature of Luxury Consumption and Consumer Well‐Being: A Systematic Literature Review and Research Agenda

Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Consuming luxury products and services has received little systematic attention as a potential pathway to consumer well‐being, despite sporadic evidence suggesting that luxury experiences may catalyse self‐transformational processes and happiness‐related outcomes.

Convergence Deficits in Myoclonus‐Dystonia Point to Cerebellar Impairment

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Myoclonus‐dystonia (M‐D) is a monogenic movement disorder, with proposed cerebellar dysfunction. Vergence eye movement deficits, characteristics of degenerative cerebellar disease, have not been studied in M‐D. Cerebellar transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is considered a potential therapeutic approach.
