AGILE TGFS AND GLOBAL LIGHTNING ACTIVITY

, 2011
[1] The AGILE satellite detects Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes (TGFs) in the 0.35–100 MeV energy range using its Mini-Calorimeter (MCAL) instrument with an average detection rate of 10 TGFs/month. Thanks to its Low Earth Orbit with only 2.5 degree of inclination, AGILE guarantees an unprecedented exposure above the equator, where both lightning activity

Dietary anthocyanidin pelargonidin activates G protein‐coupled receptor 35

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pelargonidin, a red‐fruit‐derived anthocyanidin, was newly identified as a dietary agonist of GPR35, a metabolite‐sensing GPCR implicated in anti‐inflammation. Through screening of dietary compounds, pelargonidin emerged as a potent GPR35 agonist, attenuating inflammation in human intestinal cells.

Offshore lightning more active and intense in U.S. East Coast wind areas than in North Sea

Environmental Research Communications
Fast winds over open areas off the U.S. East Coast resulted in many offshore areas being opened for wind power deployment. Yet lightning is active in this same general area.

Co‐localization of tau and TDP‐43 after extracellular vesicle delivery to cells

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from donor cells transfected with EGFP–2N4R‐tau or mCherry‐wtTDP‐43 were taken up by recipient cells, leading to cytosolic co‐localization of tau and TDP‐43. Molecular modeling revealed that tau and TDP‐43 directly interact through hydrogen bonding, suggesting a mechanistic link underlying their co‐pathology ...

Falling Trend of Winter Lightning Over Western India and Its Possible Relation With Western Disturbances

Earth and Space Science
During the Indian winter, the southerly propagation of cold air at middle and upper altitudes is caused by a trough in westerly jet streams due to the effect of Western Disturbances (WDs).

Rate statistics for radio noise from lightning [PDF]

Radio frequency noise from lightning was measured at several frequencies in the HF - VHF range at the Kennedy Space Center, Florida. The data were examined to determine flashing rate statistics during periods of strong activity from nearby storms. It was

Quality Regulation and Unexpected Gaming: Evidence From Mandating Flight Delay Compensation

Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policies that target a single aspect of agents' motivation may lead to their diminished efforts in other areas. This paper examines the effect of the European Union's flight delay compensation policy on flight on‐time performance by exploiting a unique policy variation in a difference‐in‐differences framework.
