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

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]
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]
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.

Numerical modeling of the dynamics of the Mer de Glace glacier, French Alps: comparison with past observations and forecasting of near-future evolution [PDF]
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]
We used simultaneous EEG and functional MRI (EEG–fMRI) to study generalized spike wave activity (GSW) in idiopathic and secondary generalized epilepsy (SGE).

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 ...
