Source parameters of the great Sumatran megathrust earthquakes of 1797 and 1833 inferred from coral microatolls [PDF]

, 2006
Large uplifts and tilts occurred on the Sumatran outer arc islands between 0.5° and 3.3°S during great historical earthquakes in 1797 and 1833, as judged from relative sea level changes recorded by annually banded coral heads.

Evidence for different seeding activities of misfolded tau in classical and rapidly progressive Alzheimer's disease

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
The study analyzed the seeding activity of misfolded tau protein in Alzheimer's disease and rapidly progressive Alzheimer's disease patients and provides evidence for the existence of different tau assemblies supported by differences in cellular toxicity and morphology of thioflavin T‐positive real‐time quaking‐induced conversion products.

Performance of Two 18-Story Steel Moment-Frame Buildings in Southern California During Two Large Simulated San Andreas Earthquakes [PDF]

, 2006
Using state-of-the-art computational tools in seismology and structural engineering, validated using data from the Mw=6.7 January 1994 Northridge earthquake, we determine the damage to two 18-story steel moment-frame buildings, one existing and one new ...

Two Regimes of Waste and Value: ‘Post‐Disaster’ Landscapes in a New India

Development and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this age of ‘disaster capitalism’, catastrophes are neither ‘natural’ nor ‘external’. They are political events mediating and vitally shaping the unequal and exploitative use of environmental resources. India's ‘post‐disaster’ landscapes at the turn of the new millennium powerfully demonstrate how visions of the new‐normal can be imposed in

Rationale and design of a parallel randomised trial of a plant‐based intensive lifestyle intervention for diabetes remission: The REmission of diabetes using a PlAnt‐based weight loss InteRvention (REPAIR) trial

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims As type 2 diabetes (T2D) continues to rise globally and remains a major driver of cardiovascular disease, its remission has emerged as a therapeutic target. Current evidence supports bariatric surgery and low‐calorie diets with meal replacements.
