Impact of Biomass Burning on Air Quality in Temuco City, Chile

Aerosol and Air Quality Research, 2021
Residential wood burning emits a complex mixture of particulate and gaseous compounds. In this article we show an in-depth chemical characterization of particulate matter evidencing the impact of biomass burning on the urban air quality in Greater Temuco,

Composition law for polarizers

, 2008
The polarization process when polarizers act on an optical field is studied. We give examples for two kinds of polarizers. The first kind presents an anisotropic absorption - as in a polaroid film - and the second one is based on total reflection at the ...

Outcomes of Live Virus Vaccination in Patients With Vascular Anomalies Being Treated With Sirolimus

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Live vaccination in patients with vascular anomalies (VA) receiving sirolimus remains controversial due to immunosuppressive effects and theoretical risks. Procedure This single‐center retrospective study included patients with VA less than 4 years old at the start of sirolimus therapy who were incompletely vaccinated.

Prediction of size-resolved number concentration of cloud condensation nuclei and long-term measurements of their activation characteristics

Scientific Reports, 2017
Atmospheric aerosol particles acting as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) are key elements in the hydrological cycle and climate. To improve our understanding of the activation characteristics of CCN and to obtain accurate predictions of their ...

Validation of TROPOMI and WRF-Chem NO₂ across seasons using SWING+ and surface observations over Bucharest [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are key pollutants involved in ozone and particulate matter formation, with strong spatial variability near urban sources. Accurate monitoring of tropospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is essential for air quality management and relies

Composition of Massive Giant Planets [PDF]

, 2010
The two current models for giant planet formation are core accretion and disk instability. We discuss the core masses and overall planetary enrichment in heavy elements predicted by the two formation models, and show that both models could lead to a ...

NRASQ61R Expression in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells Causes Enlarged Vessels, Hemorrhagic Chylous Effusions, and High Mortality in a Mouse Model of Kaposiform Lymphangiomatosis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Kaposiform lymphangiomatosis (KLA) is an aggressive complex lymphatic anomaly. Patients exhibit malformed lymphatic vessels and often develop hemorrhagic effusions and elevated angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2) levels. A somatic NRAS p.Q61R (NRASQ61R) mutation has been associated with KLA.

Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

An Analysis of Aspect Composition Problems [PDF]

, 2006
The composition of multiple software units does not always yield the desired results. In particular, aspect-oriented composition mechanisms introduce new kinds of composition problems.
