Analysis of balance in adults with chronic axial spinal pain receiving medial branch block or radiofrequency ablation procedures

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Medial branch blocks (MBB) and radiofrequency ablations (RFA) are common diagnostic, prognostic, and interventional procedures performed for the management of cervical and lumbar spine facetogenic pain. Although these procedures have established utility as pain management strategies, it is unclear if the disruption in function of ...

Effect of video‐based game therapy on activation of scapular muscles in children with thoracic hyperkyphosis

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Game‐based rehabilitation has been shown to support motor control and muscle activation in children; therefore, video‐based gaming may represent a promising rehabilitation approach for targeting scapular muscles. Objective To examine the effects of video‐based game therapy on scapular muscle activation, strength, and upper extremity

Disposition Model for Permafrost Degradation in Mountainous Regions

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost is a widespread thermal phenomenon in Arctic and high mountain regions that, in combination with steep terrain, exerts a key control on slope stability. Its degradation in response to climatic warming can modify the likelihood and timing of rockfall, debris flow and related mass movements. Robust information on the current state and

Depositional and Hydrological Relationships Between Buried Dead Ice and the Active Layer in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica: A Study of Sediment Geochemistry and Cation Concentrations

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.

Epistemic diversity and the politics of knowledge in plant disease management: Insights from the Xylella fastidiosa epidemic in southern Italy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Xylella fastidiosa is a major plant pathogen affecting crops such as grapes, citrus, almonds, and olives, with potentially severe consequences for agricultural production and rural livelihoods worldwide. This paper examines the conflict around the management of the X. fastidiosa outbreak affecting olive trees in southern Italy.

Evaluating anisotropy‐based Monin–Obukhov similarity theory over canopies and complex terrain

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study shows that an anisotropy‐based generalization of Monin–Obukhov surface‐layer scaling (SC23) applies readily across a wide range of atmospheric conditions with variable terrain, canopies, and land‐cover complexity. This work focuses on the scaling of velocity variances for 7 years at the 47 sites in the National Ecological Observation Network

Forecast‐Error Diagnostics in Neural Weather Models

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Deep learning weather prediction models enable efficient forecast‐error diagnostics through auto‐differentiation and low computational cost. We apply grid‐point relaxation and gradient‐based error sensitivity to identify key forecast‐error sources. Results show that medium‐range forecasts in the midlatitudes benefit most from relaxing the stratosphere ...

On the resolution of gravity anomalies

Геофизический журнал, 2011
The transformation error of anomalies of the MGGP as a harmonic functions depends on the field’s equipotential surface curvature, anomaly amplitude and the measure of transformation area, reaching according to the kind of trans formation unreasonable values.
