'The effect of different genres of music on the stress levels of kennelled dogs' [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Classical music has been shown to reduce stress in kennelled dogs; however, rapid habituation of dogs to this form of auditory enrichment has also been demonstrated.

A persistent and dynamic East Greenland Ice Sheet over the past 7.5 million years [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Climate models show that ice-sheet melt will dominate sea-level rise over the coming centuries, but our understanding of ice-sheet variations before the last interglacial 125,000 years ago remains fragmentary.

Pore‐scale visualization and quantitative analysis of the spontaneous imbibition based on experiments and micro‐CT technology in low‐permeability mixed‐wettability rock

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2020
The pore‐scale imbibition mechanism in fractured water‐wetted reservoirs has been acknowledged as an efficient tool to enhance oil recovery. Most rock in a natural reservoir is mixed‐wetted, but most studies on the pore‐scale imbibition process only ...

Tumor-associated Endo180 requires stromal-derived LOX to promote metastatic prostate cancer cell migration on human ECM surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The diverse composition and structure of extracellular matrix (ECM) interfaces encountered by tumor cells at secondary tissue sites can influence metastatic progression. Extensive in vitro and in vivo data has confirmed that metastasizing tumor cells can
