Odontochondrodysplasia (ODCD, OMIM #184260) is a rare, non-lethal skeletal dysplasia characterized by involvement of the spine and metaphyseal regions of the long bones, pulmonary hypoplasia, short stature, joint hypermobility, and dentinogenesis ...

Lead-210 and Polonium-210 in Human Tissues [PDF]
IT has recently been shown1 that appreciable amounts of lead-210 and polonium-210 may occur in certain human foodstuffs as a result of deposition from the atmosphere of long-lived radon decay-products (Table 1). Absorption of these products may therefore occur by both inhalation and ingestion, but, although measurements of the activity of lead-210 in ...

Comparison of 210Pb Age Models of Peat Cores Derived from the Arkhangelsk Region
Dating young peatlands using the 210Pb dating procedure is a challenging task. The traditional 210Pb age models assume an exponential decline in radioactivity in line with depth in the peat profile. Lead exhibits considerable migratory capacity in Arctic

Intercomparisons of airborne measurements of aerosol ionic chemical composition during TRACE-P and ACE-Asia [PDF]
As part of the two field studies, Transport and Chemical Evolution over the Pacific (TRACE-P) and the Asian Aerosol Characterization Experiment (ACE-Asia), the inorganic chemical composition of tropospheric aerosols was measured over the western Pacific ...

Composition and distribution of aerosols over the North Atlantic during the Subsonic Assessment Ozone and Nitrogen Oxide Experiment (SONEX) [PDF]
We report the mixing ratios of aerosol-associated soluble ions (focusing on SO4= and NO3−) and HNO3 over the North Atlantic during NASA\u27s Subsonic Assessment Ozone and Nitrogen Oxide Experiment (SONEX).

Greenhouse gas balance over thaw-freeze cycles in discontinuous zone permafrost [PDF]
Peat in the discontinuous permafrost zone contains a globally significant reservoir of carbon that has undergone multiple permafrost-thaw cycles since the end of the mid-Holocene (~3700 years before present).

Chronologies for Recent Peat Deposits Using Wiggle-matched Radiocarbon Ages: Problems with Old Carbon Contamination [PDF]
Dating sediments which have accumulated over the last few hundred years is critical to the calibration of longer-term paleoclimate records with instrumental climate data.

Preeclampsia is associated with first trimester placental dysfunction. miR-210, a small non-coding RNA, is increased in the preeclamptic placenta. The effects of elevated miR-210 on placental function remain unclear.

Influence of Precipitation on the Spatial Distribution of 210Pb, 7Be, 40K and 137Cs in Moss
Mosses have been widely used as biomonitors of a variety of atmospheric pollutants, including radionuclides. Here we determine the radionuclide activity concentration of 210Pb, 137Cs, 7Be, and 40K in moss tissue (Hylocomium splendens) collected from 24 ...

Ascertaining the nature and timing of mire degradation : using palaeoecology to assist future conservation management in Northern England [PDF]
This study was initiated under contract VT0419 from English Nature (Natural England) to CECQR. In 2015, additional funding was provided by the Yorkshire Peat Partnership, for 210Pb dating, to refine age–depth estimates.
