During El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events, atmospheric teleconnections associated with sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the equatorial Pacific can influence the ocean thousands of kilometers away. We use several data sets to delineate this “atmospheric bridge” between ocean basins, focusing on two emerging research areas: 1) the evolution of atmosphere-ocean interactions in th...

Mitochondria translate the RNAs for 13 core polypeptides of respiratory chain and ATP synthase complexes that are essential for the assembly and function of these complexes. This process occurs in close proximity to the mitochondrial inner membrane. However, the mechanisms and molecular machinery involved in mitochondrial translation are not fully understood, and defects in this process can res...

17 18 Regional patterns of tropical Indo-Pacific climate change are investigated over the last six 19 decades based on a synthesis of in situ observations and ocean model simulations, with a 20 focus on physical consistency among sea surface temperature (SST), cloud, sea level 21 pressure (SLP), surface wind, and subsurface ocean temperature. A newly-developed 22 bias-corrected surface wind dat...

This study examines the tropical linkages to interdecadal climate fluctuations over the North Pacific during boreal winter through a comprehensive and physically based analysis of a wide variety of observational datasets spanning the twentieth century. Simple difference maps between epochs of high sea level pressure over the North Pacific (1900–24 and 1947–76) and epochs of low pressure (1925–4...

[1] Over the past fifty years, December–February mean sea level pressure has decreased markedly over both poles, corresponding to a trend toward strengthened westerlies in both hemispheres. In this study we compare observed sea level pressure trends with those simulated in response to natural and anthropogenic influence in a suite of eight upto-date coupled general circulation models. A global ...

Surfactants like particles (SLP) are secreted by Intestinal epithelium. These particles have the ability to lower surface tension of intestinal epithelial cells and contain small amounts of surfactant specific proteins A, B, and D. In the intestinal lumen they are known to function as lubricants and/or as a vehicle to deliver digestive enzymes to the luminal fluid. These particles have been fou...

The paper analyzes the influence of atmospheric circulation on cloudiness and cloud types during July August 2016 in Petuniabukta Svalbard-Lufthavn. For meteorological parameters, basic statistical measures were calculated average diurnal patterns analyzed. Taking data from reanalysis (NCEP/NCAR-The National Centers for Atmospheric Prediction/The Center Research) regarding mean sea-level pressu...

1. To assess the effects of acute exposure to high altitude on baroreceptor function in man we evaluated the effects of baroreceptor activation on R-R interval and blood pressure control at high altitude. We measured the low-frequency (LF) and high-frequency (HF) components in R-R, non-invasive blood pressure and skin blood flow, and the effect of baroreceptor modulation by 0. 1-Hz sinusoidal n...

Dominant spatio-temporal patterns of joint sea surface temperature (SST) and sea level pressure (SLP) variability in the Atlantic Ocean are identified using a multivariate frequency domain analysis. Five significant frequency-bands a r e isolated ranging from the quasi-biennial to the quasi-decadal. Two quasi-biennial bands are centered around 2.2 and 2.7-year periods; two interannual bands a r...
