This study presents a year-long (January 2019–April 2020) analysis of the Z–R relationship and drop size distribution (DSD) scaling parameters for size, concentration, shape rain events over Santa Clara Valley, CA. External influences were analyzed based on synoptic variability seasons. For former, 850 hPa winds separated into groups direction magnitude. Results show that greater lower larger s...

This study examines the shear-relative rainfall spatial distribution of tropical cyclones (TCs) during landfall based on 19-year (1998–2016) TRMM satellite 3B42 estimate dataset and investigates role upper-tropospheric troughs intensity after TCs make a over six basins Atlantic (ATL), eastern central Pacific (EPA), northwestern (NWP), northern Indian Ocean (NIO), southern (SIO), South (SPA). Th...

[1] The cloud pressures determined by three different algorithms, operating on reflectances measured by two spaceborne instruments in the ‘‘A’’ train, are compared with each other. The retrieval algorithms are based on absorption in the oxygen A-band near 765 nm, absorption by a collision induced absorption in oxygen near 477 nm, and the filling in of Fraunhofer lines by rotational Raman scatte...

Background: Knowing the human platelet angens (HPA) and genes frequency in different populaons is important not only for populaon studies but also for clinical transfusion pracce. HPA genes frequency in Iran is not evaluated, so we invesgated the HPA-2, HPA-3, and HPA-5 frequency and their polymorphism. Materials and Methods: DNA from 120 Iranians (99 Iranian blood donors and 21 paents wi...

Background: Thrombocytopenia occurs in 1-5 % of newborns (platelet count < 150 × 109/L). Low platelet 50 109/L leads to the hemorrhagic syndrome, with one its causes being neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia resulting from incompatibility between mother and fetus human antigens (HPA) inherited father absent mother, which formation maternal antibodies. Anti-HPA-1a, anti-HPA-5b, anti-HPA-3a, ...

BACKGROUND The essential objectives for thyroidectomy are: avoidance of injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerves, conservation of the parathyroid glands, an accurate haemostasis and an excellent cosmesis. In the last 10 years major improvements and new technologies have been proposed and applied in thyroid surgery; among these mini-invasive thyroidectomy, regional anaesthesia and intraoperative...

Abstract To get insights into the effects of sea ice change on Arctic climate, a polar atmospheric regional climate model was used to perform two groups numerical experiments with prescribed cover typical mild and severe ice. In within same group, lateral boundary conditions initial values were kept same. The concentration (SIC) other fields for lower changed every six hours. 10-year integratio...
