A Boundary Forcing Sensitivity Analysis of the West African Monsoon Simulated by the Modèle Atmosphérique Régional

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
The rainfall regime of West Africa is highly variable over a large range of space and time scales. With rainfall agriculture being predominent in the region, the local population is extremely vulnerable to intraseasonal dry spells and multi-year droughts

Solid Concentration as a Main Proxy for Basal Force Fluctuations Generated by Highly Concentrated Sediment Flows

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Sediment flows generate ground vibrations by exerting force fluctuations on the riverbed. Linking force fluctuations to properties of highly concentrated sediment flows, however, remains particularly challenging due to complexities arising from grain‐to ...

An autonomous low-power instrument platform for monitoring water and solid discharges in mesoscale rivers [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data Systems, 2020
We present the development of the River Platform for Monitoring Erosion (RIPLE) designed for monitoring at high temporal frequency (∼10 min) of water discharge, solid fluxes (bedload and suspended load) and properties of fine particles (settling ...

γδ T cells affect IL-4 production and B-cell tolerance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
γδ T cells can influence specific antibody responses. Here, we report that mice deficient in individual γδ T-cell subsets have altered levels of serum antibodies, including all major subclasses, sometimes regardless of the presence of αβ T cells.

The polymorphism rs6918289 located in the downstream region of the TREM2 gene is associated with TNF-α levels and IMT-F

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) is known for its anti-inflammatory properties during the immune response, and influences negatively on TNF-α expression levels. Genetic epidemiology studies have identified polymorphisms located in

Numerical modeling of the dynamics of the Mer de Glace glacier, French Alps: comparison with past observations and forecasting of near-future evolution [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
Alpine glaciers are shrinking and rapidly loosing mass in a warming climate. Glacier modeling is required to assess the future consequences of these retreats on water resources, the hydropower industry and risk management.

EEG–fMRI of idiopathic and secondarily generalized epilepsies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We used simultaneous EEG and functional MRI (EEG–fMRI) to study generalized spike wave activity (GSW) in idiopathic and secondary generalized epilepsy (SGE).

Inferring the Basal Friction Law From Long Term Changes of Glacier Length, Thickness and Velocity on an Alpine Glacier

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Basal sliding of glaciers and ice sheets remains a source of uncertainty in simulating the long‐term evolution of ice masses. In particular, the response of ice flow to changes in driving stress depends strongly on the value of the exponent m in ...

The Impact of Low-Resource Periods on the Reliability of Wind Power Systems for Rural Electrification in Africa

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Decentralized electricity systems based on variable renewable energy (VRE) sources such as wind power can provide affordable, dependable, and modern energy in a manner consistent with the Paris Agreement.

Genetic variation among lambs in peripheral IgE activity against the larval stages of Teladorsagia circumcincta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
IgA and IgE activity against Teladorsagia circumcincta was investigated in a flock of Texel lambs following natural, mixed nematode infection among lambs.
