Resilience, plasticity and dynamics of Aleppo pine forests
Post-fire natural regeneration of Aleppo pine forest in the Gargano promontory (Southern Italy) is documented by means of photographs taken soon after fire and some years later.

Vibration direction sensitivity of the cochlea with bone conduction stimulation in guinea pigs
Sound and vibrations that cause the skull bone to vibrate can be heard as ordinary sounds and this is termed hearing by bone conduction (BC). Not all mechanisms that causes a skull vibration to result in BC hearing are known, and one such unknown is how ...

Hydrodynamic modeling of outlet stability case study Rosetta promontory in Nile delta
The hydrodynamic features of Rosetta promontory are simulated numerically to minimize the outlet siltation problems. Many coastal structures (i.e. revetments, groins) are used to solve the erosion of the shoreline and siltation in the outlet.

A multivariate spatial interpolation of airborne γ-ray data using the geological constraints [PDF]
In this paper we present maps of K, eU, and eTh abundances of Elba Island (Italy) obtained with a multivariate spatial interpolation of airborne {\gamma}-ray data using the constraints of the geologic map. The radiometric measurements were performed by a module of four NaI(Tl) crystals of 16 L mounted on an autogyro. We applied the collocated cokriging

Natural and Cultural Lost Landscape during the Holocene along the Central Tyrrhenian Coast (Italy)
Landscape evolution over the last 8000 years in three areas located along Tuscany, Latium, and Campania coasts (central Tyrrhenian) has been deduced through a morphological, stratigraphical, and historical approach considering the physical evolution and ...

Abstract Aim Kelp forests throughout temperate regions of the world serve as foundation species that play a critical role in sustaining the health and function of marine ecosystems but are experiencing declines in abundance due to a loss in resilience as the ocean climate changes.

Laparoscopic Pectopexy Using a Cervical Cerclage Tape and Native Tissue Repair to Correct Vaginal Vault Prolapse. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Laparoscopic pectopexy, facilitated by a cervical cerclage tape for the suspension of the vaginal vault, presents a feasible alternative to mesh sacrocolpopexy for the management of POP.

Abstract The concept of a ‘vertical ambush corridor’ is herein introduced to marine ecosystem science. In the open ocean, adequate physical cover from which to launch an unanticipated ambush attack is generally lacking. An available alternative is for a predator to channel its attack vertically upward from below, rendering an unlighted approaching ...

Multiple Osteomas in Middle Ear
Since the first description of middle ear osteomas by Thomas in 1964, only few reports were published within the English literatures (Greinwalid et al., 1998; Shimizu et al., 2003; Cho et al., 2005; and Jang et al., 2009), and only one case of the ...
