Tropical surface gold mining: A review of ecological impacts and restoration strategies

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 33, Issue 18, Page 3661-3674, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Surface gold mining severely degrades landscapes, causing deforestation, soil erosion and displacement, and toxic contamination. The prevalence of both large‐scale and artisanal, small‐scale surface gold mining in the tropics has risen over recent decades.

Monte-Carlo simulation for fragment mass and kinetic energy distributions from neutron induced fission of 235U [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
The mass and kinetic energy distribution of nuclear fragments from thermal neutron induced fission of 235U have been studied using a Monte-Carlo simulation. Besides reproducing the pronounced broadening on the standard deviation of the final fragment kinetic energy distribution $\sigma_{e}(m)$ around the mass number m = 109, our simulation also ...

Characterizing a CCD detector for astronomical purposes: OAUNI Project [PDF]

open access: yesRevista TECNIA Vol.26 No.2 Agosto-Diciembre 2016, 2017
This work verifies the instrumental characteristics of the CCD detector which is part of the UNI astronomical observatory. We measured the linearity of the CCD detector of the SBIG STXL6303E camera, along with the associated gain and readout noise. The linear response to the incident light of the detector is extremely linear (R2 =99.99%), its effective

ESR1 Variants and Subcontinental Genomic Ancestry: Insights from the 1000 Genomes Project and Native American Populations

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The ESR1 gene is relevant in breast cancer treatments in the pharmacogenetics context. However, Native, African, and mixed populations are known to be underrepresented in genomic studies. This is particularly important given that the difference in variants' frequencies among different populations can lead to population‐specific clinical implications ...

Dental education in Peru

open access: yesJournal of Oral Science, 2008
This paper provides information about Peru's dental history and dental school system, including the curriculum and dental licensure. With the increase in the number of dental schools in Peru, the number of dentists is also increasing. Until 1965, Peru had only three dental schools; currently, there are 14.
