Serine racemases from barley, Hordeum vulgare L., and other plant species represent a distinct eukaryotic group: gene cloning and recombinant protein characterization [PDF]

, 2007
Several D-amino acids have been identified in plants. However, the biosynthetic pathway to them is unclear. In this study, we cloned and sequenced a cDNA encoding a serine racemase from barley which contained an open reading frame encoding 337 amino ...

Subsurface Expression of the Lambton Fault and Potential for the Basin Edge Effect in the Wellington Central Business District

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
This study focuses on the subsurface structure of the Wellington basin and an assessment of the shaking potential due to the basin edge‐effect at its western margin. Seismic reflection surveys combined with gravity modelling provide data for a structural model from which to base our shaking analysis.

Shallow S-wave Velocity Profile Estimation using Surface Velocity and Microtremor HVSR with a Linear Velocity Increase Approach

Journal of Mathematical and Fundamental Sciences, 2023
We propose a simple method for 1D S-wave velocity (Vs) profile estimation using a measured surface S-wave velocity (V1) and peak frequency of the observed microtremor horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR).

Soil Dynamics Characteristics to Earthquake Using HVSR Method in Palu City

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science
Abstract On September 28, 2018, a 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck the west coast of Sulawesi Island, resulting in significant loss of life and destruction of infrastructure in Palu City. This disaster highlighted the urgent need for focused attention on the city and measures to mitigate earthquake damage as a crucial step in victim ...

Application of a characteristic periods-based (CPB) approach to estimate earthquake-induced displacements of landslides through dynamic numerical modelling [PDF]

, 2016
The interaction between seismic waves and slopes is an important topic to provide reliable scenarios for earthquake-(re)triggered landslides. The physical properties of seismic waves as well as slope topography and geology can significantly modify the ...

Utilization of Spatially Distributed mHVSR to Assess the Effectiveness of Ground Response Analysis

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
One‐dimensional ground response analyses (GRAs) can introduce model error to site response estimates when wave propagation is not dominated by vertically propagating shear waves. We investigate whether the variability of spatially distributed microtremor‐based horizontal‐to‐vertical spectral ratios (mHVSR) is related to GRA effectiveness using data ...
