Abstract During fieldwork, anthropologists engage in emotional, social and economic exchanges with interlocutors, through which to better understand one's own positionality and that of others. When such exchanges occur with an interlocutor who becomes a romantic lover, these exchanges are filtered through desire, amplifying their psychological ...

ABSTRACT Extreme rainfall events frequently trigger flash floods, which cause widespread damage to ecosystems, infrastructure, and livelihoods. Accurate rainfall estimation is therefore essential for flood modeling and early warning systems. This study assessed the performance of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and the Global ...

Image Encoding With Blipped Gradients in an Echo Train
ABSTRACT Purpose An MRI scanner was designed and built to encode k‐space points in the spin echoes occurring between 180∘ pulses in an echo train by using blipped B0 gradient pulses applied just prior to those spin echoes. Methods The proposed MRI scanner is a modification of an original design that used TRansmit Array Spatial Encoding (TRASE), a built‐

ABSTRACT The use of saline water for irrigation is increasing as the quantity and quality of irrigation water resources are declining. Saline irrigation also provides a means to investigate crop responses to heterogenous salinity, which is a common occurrence in agricultural fields. Crop responses to salinity are dose‐ and genotype dependent, providing

Micro/Nanoscale Acoustic Manipulation: From Particle Control to Autonomous Microswimmers
This conceptual framework illustrates acoustic technology as a multifunctional platform enabling passive particle manipulation across scales and autonomous propulsion of microswimmers. ABSTRACT Acoustic manipulation and propulsion technologies have emerged as powerful platforms for micro/nanoscale control, enabled by their non‐contact operation, label ...

Utterance evolution: the road to generative, combinatorial communicators
ABSTRACT Language has long been considered uniquely complex in the animal kingdom; however, animal research over the last decade has begun to challenge some long‐standing premises about exactly which language capacities are uniquely human. The task of resolving why and how complex communication systems evolve, particularly human language, has ...
