Análise multicriterial para avaliação da susceptibilidade à ocorrência de quedas de blocos na vertente noroeste da serra da Meruoca, Ceará, Brasil

open access: yesConfins
Multicriterial analysis techniques assist in making decisions on natural events, using combining variable methods, assigning weights and importance values ​​which influence certain phenomena. Thus, this research aims to develop the susceptibility mapping

Combining Spatial Models for Shallow Landslides and Debris-Flows Prediction

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2013
Mass movements in Brazil are common phenomena, especially during strong rainfall events that occur frequently in the summer season. These phenomena cause losses of lives and serious damage to roads, bridges, and properties.

The skills required for transition to university and study in biological sciences: A student perspective

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bioscience students were asked for their opinions on the value and teaching of skills. 204 responded that teamwork, time management and study skills are necessary to reach University, that scientific writing, research, laboratory and presentation skills are taught effectively during their studies, while other skills are gained inherently through study ...

Intercompartmental communication in senescence

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Senescent cells experience structural changes in the plasma membrane, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, lysosomes, nucleus, and cytoskeleton. These alterations disrupt crosstalk among cellular compartments, impairing vesicular trafficking, contact sites, and molecular flow.

Geology and mass movements of the Licetto River catchment (Calabrian Coastal Range, Southern Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2017
The paper presents a detailed mass movement inventory map of the Licetto River basin, an intermountain catchment of 50 km2 formed during the Quaternary in response to extensional tectonics dissecting fold-and-thrust belts of the Calabrian Coastal Range ...

Mass movement in Tangoio conservation reserve northern Hawkes Bay [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
In a random sample of 52 valley-side profiles at Tangoio, mass movements are shown to occur preferentially on profiles with a northerly aspect, which are long, or steeply sloping.

Association of Corticospinal Tract Asymmetry With Ambulatory Ability After Intracerebral Hemorrhage

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ambulatory ability after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is important to patients. We tested whether asymmetry between ipsi‐ and contra‐lesional corticospinal tracts (CSTs) assessed by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is associated with post‐ICH ambulation.

Enhancing assessment of direct and indirect exposure of settlement-transportation systems to mass movements by intergraph representation learning

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
Amidst the intensifying extreme rainfall patterns due to climate change, global early warning systems for mass movements (e.g. landslides, avalanches) need to provide not only the coarsely aggregated danger reports, but also the necessary fine details to

Rock flows [PDF]

open access: yes
Rock flows are defined as forms of spontaneous mass movements, commonly found in mountainous countries, which have been studied very little. The article considers formations known as rock rivers, rock flows, boulder flows, boulder stria, gravel flows ...
