Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head in an 8-Year Old Boy: Appraisal of Evolution by DXA
Assessment of skeletal status and bone mineral density (BMD) in the pediatric population requires knowledge of the child’s overall health, clinical history of chronic illness and/or risk factors for osteoporosis, and atraumatic fractures.

Abstract A new single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panel for genetic stock identification in the Teno river Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., fishery was developed, with a view to improving on an existing microsatellite panel. Twenty‐two genetically differentiated reporting units were proposed based on population genetic analyses of 1212 individuals ...

Glacial Ice‐Front Calving: Internal Wave Generation and Melting
Small, frequent calving events dominate the behavior of most Arctic marine‐terminating glaciers, yet their oceanographic impacts remain largely unquantified.

On the Sediment Dynamics in a Tidally Energetic Channel: The Inner Sound, Northern Scotland
Sediment banks within a fast-flowing tidal channel, the Inner Sound in the Pentland Firth, were mapped using multi-frequency side-scan sonar. This novel technique provides a new tool for seabed sediment and benthic habitat mapping.

A climate‐sensitive tropical urbanism under extreme heat†
Tropical urban dwellers face twin climate challenges that impinge on their quality of life: climate overheating and the urban heat island (UHI). The latter superimposed on the former to lead to high levels of thermal discomfort, carbon and energy consequences.

Changes in External Developmental Assets Across Adolescence in Low‐Income Urban Youth
ABSTRACT This study investigated longitudinal changes in external developmental assets (EDA)—support, empowerment, boundaries & expectations across ecological and interpersonal contexts of family, peers, school, and neighborhood—among predominantly Black, low‐income urban adolescents. A birth cohort of 367 adolescents (47% male) was assessed at ages 12,

Analysis of the urban heat island in Łódź, Poland
Objectives The phenomenon of urban heat island (UHI) is based on the occurrence of elevated air temperature in urban areas, in relation to the surrounding urban, rural and forest areas.
