The literature on human turning preferences is inconsistent. While the few studies with children below 14 years of age uniformly describe an overall left-turning (counterclockwise) tendency, a recent Internet study with more than 1500 adults found a right-sided (clockwise) bias. We set out to investigate spontaneous turning behaviour in children age 5-3 years and, based on neuropsychiatric work...

Caenorhabditis elegans exhibits spontaneous motility in isotropic environments, characterized by periods of forward movements punctuated at random by turning movements. Here, we study the statistics of turning movements-deep Omega-shaped bends-exhibited by swimming worms. We show that the durations of intervals between successive Omega-turns are uncorrelated with one another and are effectively...

in this paper, a parameter uniform numerical method based on shishkin mesh is suggested to solve a system of second order singularly perturbed differential equations with a turning point exhibiting boundary layers. it is assumed that both equations have a turning point at the same point. an appropriate piecewise uniform mesh is considered and a classical finite difference scheme is applied on t...

Over the CMIP6 historical period (1850–2014), aerosols provided largest negative forcing compared to all other climate forcings via their ability absorb or scatter solar radiation and alter clouds. Aerosols played an important role in counterbalancing warming by greenhouse gases (GHGs). Here we study aerosol trends simulations of NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) ocean-atmosphere ...
