coalbed methane (cbm) plays an important role in coal mining safety and natural gas production. in this work, the cbm potential of b2 seam in parvadeh iv coal deposit, in central iran, was evaluated using a combination of local regression and geostatistical methods. as there were 30 sparse methane sampling points in the parvadeh iv coal deposit, no valid variogram was achieved for the methane c...

The continental margin off northeast Australia, comprising the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) platform and Queensland Trough, is the largest tropical mixed siliciclastic /carbonate depositional system in existence. We describe a suite of 35 piston cores and two Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) sites from a 130 × 240 km rectangular area of the Queensland Trough, the slope and basin setting east of the cen...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Metal artifact reduction sequence (MARS) MRI and ultrasound scanning (USS) can both be used to detect pseudotumors, abductor muscle atrophy, and tendinous pathology in patients with painful metal-on-metal (MOM) hip arthroplasty. We wanted to determine the diagnostic test characteristics of USS using MARS MRI as a reference for detection of pseudotumors and muscle atrophy....

Although a gene's location can greatly influence its expression, genome sequencing has shown that orthologous genes may exist in very different environments in the genomes of closely related species. Four genes in the maize alcohol dehydrogenase (adh1) region represent solitary genes dispersed among large repetitive blocks, whereas the orthologous genes in sorghum are located in a different set...

Introduction The Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM) is a very high resolution near infrared spectrometer currently orbiting Mars on board the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO). Since each mineral has a unique spectral signature, it is possible to use the measurements from this instrument to identify minerals on the surface of Mars. This project describes a method[1] to...

BACKGROUND Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a life threatening acute decompensation of a pre-existing chronic liver disease. The artificial liver support system MARS is a new emerging therapeutic option possible to be implemented in routine care of these patients. The medical efficacy of MARS has been demonstrated in first clinical studies, but economic aspects have so far not been inve...
