Protected areas facilitate species’ range expansions [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012 The benefits of protected areas (PAs) for biodiversity have been questioned in the context of climate change because PAs are static, whereas the distributions of species are dynamic. Current PAs may, however, continue to be important if they provide suitable locations for species to colonize at their leading-edge range boundaries, thereby enabling ...

How to Quantify Isotropic Negative Thermal Expansion: Magnitude, Range or Both? [PDF]
, 2018 Negative thermal expansion (NTE) is the useful and counterintuitive material property of volume contraction on heating. Isotropic NTE is the rarest and most useful type, and is known to occur in a variety of different classes of materials.

Steady flow of power-law fluids in a 1:3 planar sudden expansion [PDF]
, 2013 The laminar flow of inelastic non-Newtonian fluids, obeying the power-law model, through a planar sudden expansion with a 1:3 expansion ratio was investigated numerically using a finite volume method. A broad range of power-law indices in the range 0.2 n

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with high‐risk cancer face complex developmental, psychosocial, and ethical challenges that extend beyond disease‐directed treatment. Although international recommendations exist for communication, psychosocial care, pediatric palliative care, survivorship, and shared decision‐making, these have largely evolved within ...

The Fate of Mutations Surfing on the Wave of a Range Expansion [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2005 Many species, including humans, have dramatically expanded their range in the past, and such range expansions had certainly an impact on their genetic diversity. For example, mutations arising in populations at the edge of a range expansion can sometimes surf on the wave of advance and thus reach a larger spatial distribution and a much higher ...

Document expansion for image retrieval [PDF]
, 2010 Successful information retrieval requires effective matching between the user's search request and the contents of relevant documents. Often the request entered by a user may not use the same topic relevant terms as the authors' of the documents.

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.
