Debris flows on forested cones – reconstruction and comparison of frequencies in two catchments in Val Ferret, Switzerland

Debris flows represent a major threat to infrastructure in many regions of the Alps. Since systematic acquisition of data on debris-flow events in Switzerland only started after the events of 1987, there is a lack of historical knowledge on earlier debris-flow events for most torrents. It is therefore the aim of this study to reconstruct the debrisflow activity for the Reuse de Saleinaz and the...

BDNF Val 66

33 Recent data suggest that the Val66Met polymorphism of the BDNF gene can alter cortical 34 plasticity within the motor cortex of carriers, which exhibits abnormally low rates of cortical 35 reorganization following repetitive motor tasks. To verify if long-term retention of a motor skill 36 is also modulated by the presence of the polymorphism, 20 participants (10 Val66Val; 10 37 Val66Met) we...

Computer Aided Ferret Design

In this paper, we explore several extensions to surface pasting. In particular, using the task of modelling a ferret as a driving force, we improved the user interface for cylindrical pasting; we looked at methods for reducing the distortion of pasted features; and we created a method for pasting trimmed features to allow for features that do not have the rectilinear shape of standard pasting.

Isolated Ferret Heart

Recovery of postischemic function may be limited by energy synthesis by mitochondria, energy transfer via the creatine kinase reaction, or energy utilization at myofibrils. To identify the limiting step, we defined the relations among oxygen consumption, creatine kinase reaction velocity and cardiac performance in myocardium reperfused following mild, moderate, and severe ischemia. Isolated iso...
