On the temporal variability of the surface solar radiation by means of spectral representations [PDF]
Advances in Science and Research, 2016 This work deals with the temporal variability of daily means of the global broadband surface solar irradiance (SSI) impinging on a horizontal plane by studying a decennial time-series of high-quality measurements recorded at a BSRN ground station.

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...

On the intrinsic timescales of temporal variability in measurements of the surface solar radiation [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2018 This study is concerned with the intrinsic temporal scales of the variability in the surface solar irradiance (SSI). The data consist of decennial time series of daily means of the SSI obtained from high-quality measurements of the broadband solar ...

Impact beyond the impact factor [PDF]
Journal of Comparative Physiology A, 2013 The journal impact factor is an annually calculated number for each scientific journal, based on the average number of times its articles published in the two preceding years have been cited. It was originally devised as a tool for librarians and publishers to provide information about the citation performance of a journal as a whole, but over the last

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer in Mexico, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent subtype. Exposure to high concentrations of benzene has been associated with ALL incidence, particularly in urban areas. This study evaluated the relationship between distance to benzene emission sources and the number

Communications Earth & EnvironmentDisruptions in global food and energy trade can trigger cascading socio-economic losses. Financial markets can amplify such losses and generate systemic cross-sectoral effects, e.g. food insecurity.

Hypothesis, 2008 This spawned a debate in the lab; how important is a journal’s impact factor, anyway? In this age of on-line journals and internet publication searches, is a particular paper really more likely to be seen by others (ie. have more impact) by being published in one particular journal rather than another? Surely, an important result will be seen by anyone

Eliminating the impact of the Impact Factor [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2013 The Impact Factor is the most popular numerical measure of a scientist’s work. Despite many well-documented flaws, the Impact Factor is commonly used in recruitment, appointment, and funding decisions.
