Frost heave
The deformation of the ground surface that is produced by frost heave has motivated almost a century of concerted laboratory, field and theoretical studies. Well before the development of equipment capable of resolving the microscopic films that support liquid transport towards growing ice lenses, early investigators predicted their occurrence and noted their importance. Idealized experiments c...
متن کاملFossils and plant phylogeny.
Developing a detailed estimate of plant phylogeny is the key first step toward a more sophisticated and particularized understanding of plant evolution. At many levels in the hierarchy of plant life, it will be impossible to develop an adequate understanding of plant phylogeny without taking into account the additional diversity provided by fossil plants. This is especially the case for relativ...
متن کاملUremic frost
Full blown uremic syndrome of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is seldom seen these days due to early initiation of renal replacement therapies (RRT) [1, 2]. Uremic frost is a manifestation of advanced CKD but rarely seen due to effective RRT. We came across a 21-year-old male patient, brought to us with complaints of nausea, anorexia, oliguria and recent onset alteration in sensorium. On physical ...

متن کاملPerspectives from fossils and phylogenies
Over half of all described species are insects, but until recently our understanding of the reasons for this diversity was based on very little macroevolutionary evidence. Here I summarize the hypotheses that have been posed, tests of these hypotheses and their results, and hence identify gaps in knowledge for future researchers to pursue. I focus on inferences from the following sources: (i) t...
