Abstract Global Navigation Satellite Systems radio occultation (RO) is a valuable and relevant source of information from the atmosphere. Many efforts have been made to provide methods of validation of RO profiles, however, no clear methodology for filtering the profiles from RO can be easily found.

Molecular variation of Trypanosoma brucei subspecies as revealed by AFLP fingerprinting [PDF]
Genetic analysis of Trypanosoma spp. depends on the detection of variation between strains. We have used the amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique to develop a convenient and reliable method for genetic characterization of Trypanosome ...

Abstract Drag affecting satellites in low Earth orbit varies significantly during geomagnetic storms due to changes in thermospheric density. While neutral density can be inferred from satellite measurements, such data sets are limited and restrict neutral density/orbit prediction capabilities.

Recombination dynamics of a human Y-chromosomal palindrome:rapid GC-biased gene conversion, multi-kilobase conversion tracts, and rare inversions [PDF]
The male-specific region of the human Y chromosome (MSY) includes eight large inverted repeats (palindromes) in which arm-to-arm similarity exceeds 99.9%, due to gene conversion activity.

The D1S8 hypervariable minisatellite MS32 has a heterozygosity of 97.5% based on detectable differences in allele length using standard Southern blot analysis. It has previously been shown that the basic repeat unit is in itself variable and that this may be used to map the internal structure of an allele. This method has already been used to establish

Thermospheric Density, Composition, and Temperature From GOES‐R/SUVI Solar Occultations
Abstract A new data set of atomic oxygen (O) and molecular nitrogen (N2 ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}$) number density profiles, along with thermospheric temperature profiles between 180 and 500 km, has been developed. These profiles are derived from solar occultation measurements made by the Solar Ultraviolet Imager (SUVI) on the GOES‐R satellites, using the 17.1,

A Gravity Study of the Crustal Structure Beneath the Young Amagmatic Rukwa‐Tanganyika Rift Zone
Abstract The Rukwa‐Tanganyika Rift Zone (RTRZ), experiencing multiphase rifting, forms the nonvolcanic southern part of the Western Branch of the East African Rift. We investigate the crustal structure beneath the RTRZ to understand how strain migrates beneath multiphase rifts.

Analysis of mitochondrial control region DNA variation in New Zealand's brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Ecology at Massey University [PDF]
Brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula) were first introduced from Australia to New Zealand in 1858 to establish a fur industry. Currently numbering more than 65 million, they are recognised as the most important mammalian pest in New Zealand, because ...

The highly variable mouse minisatellite Hm-2 is located on chromosome 9 and consists of GGCA tetranucleotide repeats with alleles containing up to 5000 repeat units. This locus is unstable with a germline mutation rate to new length alleles of at least 3.6% per gamete.

Abstract A subset of non‐migrating tides, including the diurnal eastward propagating tides with zonal wavenumbers 3 and 2, respectively, referred to as DE3 and DE2, are upward propagating waves that have been studied as phenomena that couple the lower atmosphere with the thermosphere. While the climatology of non‐migrating tides in the mesosphere/lower
