R.I.P. Resilience

open access: yesFennia: International Journal of Geography, 2019
Resilience was set to rest on 30 June 2016 in Trondheim, Norway. After a two-year quest for meaning, the concept now lies with its neoliberal supporters. Resilience and I first crossed paths at the beginning of my PhD journey in Geography.

Repeat-induced point mutation in Neurospora crassa causes the highest known mutation rate and mutational burden of any cellular life

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2020
Background Repeat-induced point (RIP) mutation in Neurospora crassa degrades transposable elements by targeting repeats with C→T mutations. Whether RIP affects core genomic sequence in important ways is unknown.

Study on the Formation Characteristics and Disaster Mitigation Mechanisms of Rip Currents on Arc-Shaped Beach

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Rip currents are fast offshore currents generated during the breaking process of waves propagating nearshore, posing a potential life safety threat to coastal bathers.

A note on the term 'lithic'

open access: yesJournal of Lithic Studies, 2014
The term ‘lithic’ is derived from the ancient Greek word for ‘rock’ (lithos), used in the late fourth century BCE by the scholar Theophrastus. The term ‘lithic’ in the way we use it today, meaning small rock artifact, most often chipped or ground stone ...

Flow Characteristics of the Rip Current System near a Shore-Normal Structure with Regular Waves

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Rip currents are the strong narrow seaward current produced by waves breaking on the coast. Of the many types of rip currents, the present study investigates, experimentally and numerically, the rip current system produced by the wave reflection on a ...

RIP - CURRENTS

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 1972
The generation and stabilization of rip - current circulation patterns is considered herein. An analytic model is developed to simulate the wave hydrodynamic processes in the nearshore zone, strongly influenced by the local bottom topography. The wave induced nearshore circulation pattern is computed and the results compared to prototype field data.

Flow-Based Rip Current Detection and Visualization

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Rip currents are like rivers of fast-moving water that can quickly carry the unwary out to sea. They are not easy to recognize, especially to the untrained observer.

Interpretable Deep Learning Applied to Rip Current Detection and Localization

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
A rip current is a strong, localized current of water which moves along and away from the shore. Recent studies have suggested that drownings due to rip currents are still a major threat to beach safety.

Ripped to death [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cell Biology, 2011
An old puzzle in the field of cell death was solved recently: the mysterious embryonic lethality of animals deficient in caspase-8 or Fas-associated death domain (FADD), proteins involved in a pathway of apoptosis. This lethality is caused by a failure to develop the yolk sac vasculature rather than a lack of apoptosis.
