Effects of island geometry in postdeposition island growth
Physical Review B, 2000The results of kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of a realistic model of postdeposition island growth that takes into account the spatial extent of islands are presented. Simulations were carried out on oneand twodimensional substrates for different values of the critical island size i and were compared with previous results for a point-island model. The

The Effect of Island-Island Interaction on Coarsening of Strained Islands
Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, 2003We review recent studies on the effect of stress/strain-induced island-island interaction on coarsening of strained islands. For coarsening of strained 2D islands, there always exists a stable island size against coarsening. When coarsening proceeds via only mass transport between islands, the interaction broadens the island size distribution, leading ...

Experimental Zoogeography of Islands: Effects of Island Size
Ecology, 1976A controlled experiment performed on 8 small mangrove islands constituted an exact test of several biogeographic hypotheses which had rested largely on unsatisfying statistical treatments. The islands were censused for arboreal arthropods; each contained a different subset of a species pool of °500.

Heat Island Effect Aggravates Mortality
Volume 4: Energy Systems Analysis, Thermodynamics and Sustainability; Combustion Science and Engineering; Nanoengineering for Energy, Parts A and B, 2011Cases of death during heat waves are most commonly due to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, with the main contribution from the negative effect of heat on the cardiovascular system. In an attempt to control the body temperature, the body’s natural instinct is to circulate large quantities of blood to the skin.

Frequency effects in Subject Islands
Journal of Linguistics, 2018This work provides evidence that Subject Island violation effects vanish if subject-embedded gaps are made as frequent and pragmatically felicitous as non-island counterpart controls. We argue that Subject Island effects are caused by the fact that subject-embedded gaps are pragmatically unusual – as the informational focus does not usually correspond ...

Island Stirring Effects on Phytoplankton Growth
1986It has long been suspected that the disturbance of the flow caused by the presence of an oceanic island may be responsible for increased biomass and production near the island. Doty and Oguri (1956), reporting observations near Oahu, Hawaii, coined the phrase “island mass effect” to describe such enhancement, which they explained with the suggestion ...

Effects of island disaggregation in growth models
Physical Review E, 2006We introduced two point island models with island disaggregation. In the first one, particles can detach from islands with an odd number of particles and from those with two particles. In the second model, particles can detach from all islands with more than two particles.

Journal of East Asian Linguistics, 2000
In this paper I develop an argument for a pied-piping approach to the apparent absence of island effects in Japanese, along the lines of Nishigauchi (1986, 1990). The argument (first mentioned in Watanabe (1992b), crediting Mamoru Saito) has to do with the behavior of multiple wh-phrases in situ which are in an island; such wh-phrases must all take the

Gravity effects of volcanic islands
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, 1967Abstract Gravity surveys of six volcanic islands in the Southern Cook Group (South-West Pacific Ocean) show that the radial anomaly gradient near the reef is much larger than the calculated effect for an island of uniform density. The gravity surveys also show that the difference between the modified Bouguer anomalies at the centre of each island and ...
