Immersive virtual reality as a teaching tool in neuroanatomy: A scoping review

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Basic core courses in various undergraduate programs, such as neuroanatomy, pose a challenge for students due to the large volume and complexity of the content. In this context, educational technologies such as immersive virtual reality (IVR), which allow students to actively interact with learning materials, offer a complementary pedagogical ...

Determinants of dietary diversity among women of reproductive age in two different agro-ecological zones of Rongai Sub-County, Nakuru, Kenya

open access: yesFood & Nutrition Research, 2019
Background: Empirical evidence on the link between agrobiodiversity and dietary diversity appears to be inconclusive. Thus, there arises a need to determine other factors that could significantly influence dietary diversity in different agro-ecological ...

Permeability of granite from a shallow buried mountain pipe gallery tunnel under unloading confining pressure

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Triaxial compression tests under unloading confining pressure conditions were conducted to systematically analyze the permeability behavior of granite retrieved from the different classification surrounding rocks. Abstract The rock mass within mountain tunnels undergoes complex changes in permeability, strength, and deformation during tunneling ...

4D laboratory experiments of oblique extension and scissor tectonics, structural inheritance and sedimentation: implications for rift evolution, rift propagation and rift segment interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Extension of the continental lithosphere leads to the formation of continental rift basins. When extension persists, continental break-up and oceanic spreading ensue, creating conjugate passive margins on both sides of a new oceanic basin.

World's fastest 10 000‐m breakthrough: The XY‐22 well redefines deep‐earth access in the Tarim Basin

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The Tarim Basin in northwestern China hosts one of the world's deepest petroleum systems, exemplified by the XY‐22 ultra‐deep well (bottom depth: 11 116 m; ~220°C, ~145 MPa). This study integrates tectonic mapping, geological cross‐sections, ultraviolet fluorescence microscopy, and optical photothermal infrared (OPTIR) spectroscopy to characterize ...

Tectonic evolution of the Corinth Rift

open access: yes, 2008
The evolution of extensional processes at continental rift zones provides important constraints on the underlying lithospheric deformation mechanisms, level of seismic hazard and location of likely hydrocarbon traps. The Corinth rift in central Greece is

NEW INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND ITS CAPACITIES FOR MODELING OF GEOSYSTEMS

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
Numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations for free and forced convection in solid and porous media is challenging as an evolution equation for pressure is lacking. An information technology is proposed on the basis of a new system of hydrodynamic

Civil Society Advocacy and Climate Change in Kenya: The Question of “Local Voices” and Their “Amplification”

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of civil society organizations (CSOs) in addressing climate change is acknowledged, but engagement with questions of voice remains limited, especially in the Global South. Addressing this, this paper zooms in on (International) nongovernmental organizations ((I)NGOs) and their collaborations with domestic CSOs in the Global South on ...

Heterogeneous crust and upper mantle across southern Kenya and the relationship to surface deformation as inferred from magnetoteluric imaging. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We have used magnetotelluric data imaging to determine the resistivity structure across southern Kenya and our results suggest the presence of a buckled blocky or segmented lithosphere across the region.
