Implications of Site Specific Response Analysis
Definition of design earthquake characteristics, more specifically uniform hazard acceleration response spectrum, on the ground surface is the primary component for performance based design of structures and assessment of seismic vulnerabilities in urban environments.

Geo-Proxy-Based Site Classification for Regional Zonation of Seismic Site Effects in South Korea
Seismic site effects and topographic effects related to ground motion occur during an earthquake due to site-specific geotechnical or geological characteristics, including the geological or geographical structure and the characteristics of near-surface ...

Diffusion of responsibility on social networking sites [PDF]
Social networking presents opportunities for diffusion of responsibility and so research on prosocial behavior.Participants viewed a mock social networking site embedded with requests for help.We manipulated the number of other people online and the time since the request was made.Offers to help were influenced by the number of 'others' online as well ...

Linear site-response characteristics at central and eastern U.S. seismic stations
Earthquake S waves can become trapped, or resonate, between the free surface and high-impedance basal layers, strongly contributing to site response at specific frequencies.

Identifying fenofibrate responsive CpG sites [PDF]
As part of GAW20, we analyzed the familiality and variability of methylation to identify cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) sites responsive to treatment with fenofibrate. Methylation was measured at approximately 450,000 sites in pedigree members, prior to and after 3 weeks of treatment.
