Accurate monitoring of daily precipitation is essential for many applications, such as simulation and prediction of watershed water-related disasters. However, precipitation data from satellite and gauge-based precipitation products face challenges in capturing true observations because of their large uncertainties. To improve daily precipitation estimates, this study proposed a new merging framew
Cosmogenic radionuclides (e.g., 10Be) from ice cores are a powerful tool for solar reconstructions back in time. However, superimposed on the solar signal, other factors like weather/climate and volcanic influences on 10Be can complicate the interpretation of 10Be data. A comprehensive study of 10Be records over the recent period, when atmospheric 10Be production and meteorological conditions are
A measurement of the mass of the Higgs boson combining the Formula Presented and Formula Presented decay channels is presented. The result is based on Formula Presented of proton-proton collision data collected by the ATLAS detector during LHC run 2 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV combined with the run 1 ATLAS mass measurement, performed at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, yielding a H
BACKGROUND: Mechanisms regulating the ABO gene are unclear, especially in the hematopoietic compartment. The number of 43-bp repeats in the CBF/NF-Y-binding enhancer region is considered to have a major influence on transcription. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Transcript levels in peripheral blood and in erythropoietic culture of CD34+ cells from marrow donors were measured with TaqMan assays. The 5'-
Despite their tiny eyes and brains, nocturnal insects have remarkable visual abilities. Recent work-particularly on fast-flying moths and bees and on ball-rolling dung beetles-has shown that nocturnal insects are able to distinguish colors, to detect faint movements, to learn visual landmarks, to orient to the faint pattern of polarized light produced by the moon, and to navigate using the stars.
Spatial ecology focuses on the role of space and time in ecological processes and events from a local to a global scale and is particularly relevant in developing environmental policy and (mandated) monitoring goals. In other words, spatial ecology is where geography and ecology intersect, and high-quality geospatial data and analysis tools are required to address emerging issues in spatial ecolog
Coffee and tea contain numerous antimutagenic and antioxidant components and high levels of caffeine that may protect against colorectal cancer (CRC). We investigated the association between coffee and tea consumption and CRC risk and studied potential effect modification by CYP1A2 and NAT2 genotypes, enzymes involved in the metabolization of caffeine. Data from 477,071 participants (70.2% female)
This study explores musicians' ways of taking and giving meaning to notation in Western tonal music. From a socio-cultural theoretical perspective relations between traditions and individuals were especially accounted for. Linked to this perspective the method for the study was developed. Experienced pianists commented on well-prepared performances of one freely chosen work, and prescribed pieces
This paper presents for the first time a precise measurement of the production properties of the Z boson in the full phase space of the decay leptons. This is in contrast to the many previous precise unfolded measurements performed in the fiducial phase space of the decay leptons. The measurement is obtained from proton–proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2012 at s=8 TeV at
Surface water pollution consists of various pollutants like heavy metals (Cu, Cr, Pb, and Ni), metalloids (Se, As, and Ag), and organic pollutants (dyes, antibiotics, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and phenolic compounds). The escalating issue of water pollution requires innovative solutions for mitigation and climate resilience. Although various advanced techniques are being developed for removing
Qualitative methods are well established in music education research. This has led to an interesting body of research, each project investigating in depth a specific situation or phenomenon. One way of combining the advantages of qualitative studies with the aim of acquiring general theories Of music education might be to develop methods of re-analyzing primary studies on a secondary, meta level.
The goal of the GHG-CCI project (http://www.esa-ghg-cci.org/) of ESA's Climate Change Initiative (CCI) is to generate global atmospheric satellite-derived carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) data sets as needed to improve our understanding of the regional sources and sinks of these important greenhouse gases (GHG). Here we present an overview about the latest data set called Climate Research Da
