Convective Quasi-Equilibrium Reconsidered

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2011
The hypothesis of convective quasi-equilibrium states that moist convection reacts almost instantly to drive the atmospheric temperature profile throughout the troposphere to one of a special subset of possible profiles.

Tunable denture adhesives using biomimetic principles for enhanced tissue adhesion in moist environments [PDF]

open access: yesActa Biomaterialia, 2017
Nature provides many interesting examples of adhesive strategies. Of particular note, the protein glue secreted by marine mussels delivers high adhesion in wet and dynamic environments owing to existence of catechol moieties. As such, this study focuses on denture fixatives, where a non-zinc-containing commercial-based formulation has been judiciously ...

Seasonal variation in soil and plant water potentials in a Bolivian tropical moist and dry forest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We determined seasonal variation in soil matric potentials (¿soil) along a topographical gradient and with soil depth in a Bolivian tropical dry (1160 mm y-1 rain) and moist forest (1580 mm y-1).

Effects of concrete quality and natural Johannesburg environment on concrete carbonation rate

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
This study presents the results of a project undertaken to study the combined effects of concrete quality (binder type, w/b, and duration of initial moist curing) and natural Johannesburg environment on carbonation rate of concretes containing 100% PC ...

Dapagliflozin prevents methylglyoxal‐induced retinal cell death in ARPE‐19 cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Diabetic macular oedema is a diabetes complication of the eye, which may lead to permanent blindness. ARPE‐19 are human retinal cells used to study retinal diseases and potential therapeutics. Methylglyoxal is a compound increased in uncontrolled diabetes due to elevated blood glucose.

Correlative analysis of shoe insoles acting in moist and cold/warm environment

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Insoles represent a mean by which humans can improve postural comfort or existence and manifestation of posture static and dynamic. The variety of materials and sizes for different kinds of foot insoles are for manufacturers a challenge in terms of ...

Early‐life high‐fat diet exposure increases Achilles tendon stiffness and induces transcriptomic alterations

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.
