Fever treatment in the absence of malaria transmission in an urban informal settlement in Nairobi, Kenya [PDF]

, 2009
Background: in sub-Saharan Africa, knowledge of malaria transmission across rapidly proliferating urban centres and recommendations for its prevention or management remain poorly defined. This paper presents the results of an investigation into infection

Advances in newly-fallen snow density research

暴雨灾害, 2020
The prediction of newly-fallen snow depth is a key and difficult task for winter meteorological service in Northern China. The es-timation of newly-fallen snow density is its essential technology. In this paper we review the important influencing factors

Microbial Odorant Detection Guides Drosophila Parasitoids Seeking Hosts in Fermenting Fruits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Yeast microbes in fermenting fruits attract both host flies and their parasitoid wasps. Female Leptopilina boulardi detect yeast‐emitted ethyl esters via two olfactory receptors, LbouOR167 and LbouOR136. A conserved residue, Leu159, is critical for binding these compounds, enabling female wasps to locate host‐rich habitats.

Density Variations in Alpine Snow [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 1967
AbstractStratigraphic studies of the annual snow layer in the Beartooth Mountains of south-western Montana and on Mount Logan in the St. Elias Range have disclosed a similiar distribution of at least one physical property of the snow pack in the two areas.

Chitosan‐Carbon Dot Composite Materials Form a Leaf Surface Barrier to Mitigate the Enrichment and Invasion of Nanoplastics: From Leaf Interface to Systemic Response

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Foliar spraying of CS‐CDs can form a film on the leaves of Brassica rapa, effectively reducing the enrichment and absorption of PS in the leaves, while increasing the biomass and nutrient content of the plants. In addition, CS‐CDs can also enrich the interfoliar microbial community and activate the plant's own defense metabolic pathways.

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Equivalent snow density to estimate snow load in extremely heavy snow areas

Journal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 2004
約10年にわたる山地積雪観測ネットワークによる積雪深および積雪重量の連続観測結果に基づき,最大積雪深から最大積雪重量を算定するための等価積雪密度の新たな実用式を提案した.これは,本州に限定されるが,最大積雪深が3mを超えると,従来のすべての設計指針に示された値より大きくなる.今後,多雪地の雪荷重を推定する場合は,用いる等価積雪密度に注意を払う必要がある.
