The Cape Viper [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1901
TO-DAY the Cape viper (Causus rhombeatus) laid several eggs. The keeper says this has happened before. As Causus is one of the Viperidae, and as the Viperidae (except Atractaspis) are, as their name implies, viviparous, or, to be accurate, ovo-viviparous, it would be interesting to know whether this is a freak, or whether the Causidae are oviparous in ...

CAPE in Tropical Cyclones [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2012
Abstract Convective available potential energy (CAPE) and the vertical distribution of buoyancy were calculated for more than 2000 dropsonde soundings collected by the NOAA Gulfstream-IV aircraft. Calculations were done with and without the effects of condensate loading, entrainment, and the latent heat of fusion.

Changes in epicuticular wax of Pinus sylvestris exposed to polluted air.

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 1981
Scanning Electron Microscopy was used to study structural changes in epicuticular vax of L. with time. Changes in the contact angle of water droplets and in cuticular transpiration were also measured.

Measurements of sulphur dioxide in rural air: data quality issues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Discrepancies between long-term average SO2 concentrations measured by UV-Fluorescence monitors in the AURN and DELTA denuders from AGA-Net are caused by inadequate performance of UV-F monitors at low concentrations.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Ecosistemas marinos antárticos después del rompimiento de barreras de hielo

open access: yesCuadernos de investigación UNED, 2019
Los desprendimientos en las barreras de hielo antárticas proveen una oportunidad única para entender la evolución de ecosistemas costeros y las consecuencias de cambio global abrupto en altas latitudes.

Effects of Ground Level Ozone on Vegetation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
All the experiments conducted in this project use ozone exposures that either are already currently occurring or are expected to occur over UK uplands this century, if predictions of increasing „background‟ ozone exposure are correct.

4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase in malaria parasites and enhances atovaquone efficacy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...

Wilmington gray to blue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Wilmington is situated on the divide of two major watersheds, the Cape Fear River and the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. All surface waters in Wilmington drain to one of these two water bodies and are divided into two groups: tidal creeks and Cape Fear ...
