Movements on Water Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1914
MR. MARTIN'S second question is more easily answered than his first. The surface tension of clean water is about three times as great as that of water containing soap, so when the soap touches the wet surface the surrounding wet being no longer pulled towards the soap as strongly as it is pulled away, obeys the latter force as fast as it can.

Mass Movements in Wetlands: An Analysis of a Typical Amazon Delta-Estuary Environment

open access: yesGeoHazards
This study aims to investigate the processes associated with mass movements and their relationship with the behavior of the Amazon River delta-estuary (ADE) wetlands.

Transferring Water in the American West: 1987-2005 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Rising urban and environmental demand for water has created growing pressure to re-allocate water from traditional agricultural uses. Water markets are powerful institutions for facilitating this re-allocation, yet the evolution of water markets has been

Study of dielectric relaxations in cellulose by combined DDS and TSC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In this work, thermally stimulated currents (TSC) analyses combined with dynamic dielectric spectroscopy (DDS) have been applied to the investigation of molecular mobility of cellulose.

Infrared laser sampling of low volumes combined with shotgun lipidomics reveals lipid markers in palatine tonsil carcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Nanosecond infrared laser (NIRL) low‐volume sampling combined with shotgun lipidomics uncovers distinct lipidome alterations in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) of the palatine tonsil. Several lipid species consistently differentiate tumor from healthy tissue, highlighting their potential as diagnostic markers.

Multi-Source Glacial Lake Outburst Flood Hazard Assessment and Mapping for Huaraz, Cordillera Blanca, Peru

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2018
The Quillcay catchment in the Cordillera Blanca, Peru, contains several glacial lakes, including Lakes Palcacocha (with a volume of 17 × 106 m3), Tullparaju (12 × 106 m3), and Cuchillacocha (2 × 106 m3).

Intrinsic and extrinsic factors drive ontogeny of early-life at-sea behaviour in a marine top predator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Young animals must learn to forage effectively to survive the transition from parental provisioning to independent feeding. Rapid development of successful foraging strategies is particularly important for capital breeders that do not receive parental ...

Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of single circulating tumor cells in the follow‐up of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single circulating tumor cells (sCTCs) from high‐grade serous ovarian cancer patients were enriched, imaged, and genomically profiled using WGA and NGS at different time points during treatment. sCTCs revealed enrichment of alterations in Chromosomes 2, 7, and 12 as well as persistent or emerging oncogenic CNAs, supporting sCTC identity.

Water striders adjust leg movement speed to optimize takeoff velocity for their morphology

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
How water striders escape from danger by jumping vertically from the water surface without sinking is an open question in biomechanics. Yanget al. show that water strider species with varying leg lengths and body masses tune their leg movements to ...

Modelling rapid mass movements using the shallow water equations in Cartesian coordinates [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2015
We propose a new method to model rapid mass movements on complex topography using the shallow water equations in Cartesian coordinates. These equations are the widely used standard approximation for the flow of water in rivers and shallow lakes, but the ...
