In order to understand the possible role of globin genes in fish salinity adaptation, we report the molecular characterization and expression of all four subunits of haemoglobin, and their response to salinity challenge in flounder. The entire open reading frames of α1‐globin and α2‐globin genes were 432 and 435 bp long, respectively, whereas the β1 ...

Using an automated decision support tool to improve HIV prescribing: A feasibility study
Abstract Objectives The selection of antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens for people living with HIV is complex and dependent on individual and clinician‐perceived risk factors and preferences. The British HIV Association (BHIVA) advocates cost‐effective prescribing and shared decision‐making between patients and clinicians.

Abstract Using data from about 25 million hotel room postings in four countries, we document that rather than decreasing to zero as the likelihood of cancellation declines, the difference between the prices for refundable and nonrefundable reservations remains positive at roughly 10%–15% of the full price.

Short Abstract This paper provides an empirically grounded intervention to argue for the necessity of future scholarship and interventions in UK energy and social policy to pay closer attention to seaside towns and develop broader geographical conceptualisations of energy peripheries, beyond rurality.

Design and Control of a Flight-Style AUV with Hovering Capability [PDF]
The small flight-style Delphin AUV is designed to evaluate the performance of a long range survey AUV with the additional capability to hover and manoeuvre at slow speed. Delphin’s hull form is based on a scaled version of Autosub6000, and in addition to

Abstract Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba Dana) is a keystone species in the Southern Ocean ecosystem, with ecological and commercial significance. However, its vulnerability to climate change requires an urgent investigation of its adaptive potential to future environmental conditions.

In this study, powering and manoeuvring performance of a twin-screw surface combatant, ONR tumblehome (ONRT), are estimated through towing tank captive model tests, and influences of appendage dimensions on its course-stabilities and manoeuvres are ...
