Do seasonal changes in Svalbard reindeer fur have relevance for heat transfer?

open access: yesRangifer, 2002
Physical characteristics of Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus) fur samples were examined with respect to season. A total of 33 dorsal fur sections including adults and calves were investigated.

Stomatal conductance increases with rising temperature

open access: yesPlant Signalling & Behavior, 2017
Stomatal conductance directly modifies plant water relations and photosynthesis. Many environmental factors affecting the stomatal conductance have been intensively studied but temperature has been largely neglected, even though it is one of the fastest ...

The Appraisal of Conductions

open access: yesInformal Logic, 2019
I argue that conductions are a special type of inference indeed, but that this does not mean that we need to develop novel standards of inference goodness or specific argument schemes for properly assessing them. Following LNMA’s theoretical framework, I provide a semantic account of conductions and explain the interesting pragmatic properties of a ...

The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

Rain more important than windchill for insulation loss in Svalbard reindeer fur

open access: yesRangifer, 2004
Heat transfer through dry and wet Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus) summer and winter midback fur samples was studied in a wind tunnel.

Specular Reflection Leads to Maximum Reduction in Thermal Conductivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In contrast to established work that use diffuse surface scattering as the mechanism to lower the thermal conductivities, we show that the largest reduction of heat conduction in thin films is achieved via specular scattering. Our results create a new paradigm for heat conduction manipulation since smooth surfaces , in contrast to rough surfaces , are ...

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

On the influence of molecular structure on the conductivity of electrolyte solutions - sodium nitrate in water

open access: yesCondensed Matter Physics, 2013
Theoretical calculations of the conductivity of sodium nitrate in water are presented and compared with experimental measurements. The method of direct correlation force in the framework of the interionic theory is used for the calculation of transport ...

pH Sensitivity of Novel PANI/PVB/PS3 Composite Films

open access: yesSensors, 2007
This paper reports on the results from the investigation into the pH sensitivity ofnovel PANI/PVB/PS3 composite films. The conductimetric sensing mode was chosen as itis one of the most promising alternatives to the mainstream pH-sensing methods and it ...

Leaf anatomy mediates coordination of leaf hydraulic conductance and mesophyll conductance to CO2 in Oryza.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2017
Leaf hydraulic conductance (Kleaf ) and mesophyll conductance (gm ) both represent major constraints to photosynthetic rate (A), and previous studies have suggested that Kleaf and gm is correlated in leaves. However, there is scarce empirical information
