New Measurements of Venus Winds with Ground-Based Doppler Velocimetry at CFHT [PDF]
operations with observations from the ground using various techniques and spectral domains (Lellouch and Witasse, 2008). We present an analysis of Venus Doppler winds at cloud tops based on observations made at the Canada France Hawaii 3.6-m telescope ...

Using single-sensor hot-wire anemometry for velocity measurements in confined swirling flows [PDF]
This short communication presents a novel technique for measuring the velocity of a confined swirling flow using a single-sensor hot-wire probe. Unlike conventional hot-wire techniques, directional calibration of the hot-wire probe is not required.

Thermally induced convective circulation and precipitation over an isolated volcano [PDF]
Intense rainfall over active volcanoes is known to trigger dangerous volcanic hazards, from remobilizing loose volcanic surface material into lahars or mudflows to initiating explosive activity including pyroclastic flows at certain dome-forming ...

miR-16-5p, miR-103-3p, and miR-27b-3p as Early Peripheral Biomarkers of Fetal Growth Restriction [PDF]
none9noCurrent tests available to diagnose fetal hypoxia in-utero lack sensitivity thus failing to identify many fetuses at risk. Emerging evidence suggests that microRNAs derived from the placenta circulate in the maternal blood during pregnancy and may

Volumetric Measurements by Tomographic PIV of an Open Channel Flow Behind a Turbulent Grid [PDF]
National audienceThis paper investigates the energy dissipation rate behind two combinations of trash racks (or meshes) in an open channel flow from tomo-PIV measurements. Five trash rack assemblies divided the flume into four identical pools. Each trash

Fulvic acids concentration and pH influence on the stability of hematite nanoparticles in aquatic systems [PDF]
In aquatic systems, fulvic acids (FAs) are expected to play key roles on the stability and aggregation behavior of manufactured nanoparticles (NPs). The exact conditions under which aggregation or dispersion occurs will depend on the nanoparticle surface

Antenatal telephone support intervention with and without uterine artery Doppler screening for low risk nulliparous women: a randomised controlled trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The number of routine antenatal visits provided to low risk nulliparous women has been reduced in the UK, acknowledging this change in care may result in women being less satisfied with their care and having poorer psychosocial outcomes.
