Teaching Japanese bi-mora and quadric-mora timing rhythms to Vietnamese learners

Speech rhythm in Japanese is based around a unit of timing known as the mora. In this study, the Haiku, a Japanese poetic form, is used to help Vietnamese learners of Japanese improve their speech rhythm or, more specifically, their mora-timing, by using bior quadric-mora-timing as a pedagogic strategy. Following instruction, participants in the study showed improvement in the uniformity of the...

Protein expression monitoring can be a good tool to determine disease onset and progression, and is also used in drug discovery and investigational science (1–4). However, commonly used assays lack the sensitivity and specificity required for the detection of low-abundance proteins (5,6). Several signal amplification technologies have been designed and applied to protein detection assays, inclu...

Lincoln Sea and Nares Strait

A winter phenomenon of ice break-up takes place in Lincoln Sea every year. A previous study based on ERS-1 SAR data has been resumed based on Radarsat data that is briefly reported here. The study of two winters, 1996-1997 and 1997-1998, is supported by wind data. It is found that the ice motion in the area often is driven by wind but also that it is seriously influenced by blocking at the entr...
