Surface storage (pools, pockets, and stagnant areas caused by woody debris, bars etc) is very important to solute transport in streams as it attenuates the peak of a spill but releases the solute back to the stream over a long time. The latter results in long exposure time of biota. Pools as fundamental stream morphology unit are commonly found in streams with mixed bed materials in pool-riffle...

Cortico-cortical projections for visual processing that originate from the striate cortex are organized into two streams. The dorsal stream projects to the parietal region and the ventral stream to the inferior temporal region. One hypothesis is that the dorsal stream processes visual spatial information, and the ventral stream processes visual object information. Although recognition of human ...

We investigate how the choice of either no-slip or stress-free boundary conditions affects numerical models of rapidly rotating flow in Earth's core by computing solutions of the weakly-viscous magnetostrophic equations within a spherical shell, driven by a prescribed body force. For non-axisymmetric solutions, we show that models with either choice of boundary condition have thin boundary laye...

In this article, stream flow effectivness is based on hydraulic network studied in the shell-side of a shell and tube heat exchange as a case study. For an appropriate heat exchangers rating design to meet a specified duty, it's better to consider each stream flow separately. Using the hydraulic network principals, a set of the correlations for calculating different stream flow rates in the cro...

We study the global well-posedness of the Lagrangian averaged Euler equations in three dimensions. We show that a necessary and sufficient condition for the global existence is that the BMO norm of the stream function is integrable in time. We also derive a sufficient condition in terms of the total variation of certain level set functions, which guarantees the global existence. Furthermore, we...

We present a combined experimental and computational study of the dual-stream exhaust of a supersonic turbofan engine with noise-suppressing deflectors installed in the fan stream. The focus is on validating the computational code, extracting turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) trends, and connecting those trends to the measured noise reduction. We consider two operating conditions, a “cold” conditi...

INTRODUCTION Patients with schizophrenia show high susceptibility to distraction but the neural mechanisms underlying sensitivity to distraction are not clearly established. We designed a paradigm to assess whether sensitivity to distraction and dorsal stream dysfunction are related in schizophrenia. METHOD 60 patients, 37 schizotypals, and 58 healthy controls were asked to locate a target sq...

1. Due to the hierarchical organization of stream networks, land use changes occurring at larger spatial scales (i.e. the catchment) can affect physical, chemical and biological characteristics at lower spatial scales, ultimately altering stream structure and function. Anthropogenic effects on streams have primarily been documented using structural metrics such as water chemistry, channel alter...

Zoos and aquariums are cultural institutions that rely on a steady stream of paying visitors, whose patronage comes in the form admission fees or product sales, for their financial health, condition is vital to continued delivery modern zoological mission, one includes not only recreation but also conservation, education, research [...]

This study evaluates the role of item predictability in auditory temporal coherence. Thirteen normal-hearing subjects were required to hold together long tonal sequences as single strings of notes. Temporal and spectral predictability of successive notes in a sequence varied as a function of experimental condition. As the frequency separation of the notes in the sequence increased, the subjects...
