Airborne observations of fluorescent aerosol were made aboard an airship during CloudLab, a series of flights that took place in September and October of 2013 and covered a wideband of longitude across the continental U.S. between Florida and California and between 28 and 37 N latitudes. Sampling occurred from near the surface to 1000m above the ground. A Wideband Integrated Bioaerosol Sensor (...

The NCEP/NCAR pentad mean reanalysis data from 1980 to 1994 are employed to examine the activities of the 100 hPa South Asia High (SAH) during the boreal summer. The results show that there exists bimodality in the longitude location of the SAH. According to the two preferred regions for the SAH, the SAH is classified into the Tibetan Mode (TM) and the Iranian Mode (IM), respectively. The studi...

We present the second portion of an unbiased survey of the Galactic plane for 6668MHz methanol masers. This section of the survey spans the longitude range 6◦ to 20◦. We report the detection of 119 maser sources, of which 42 are new discoveries. The masers are tightly constrained to the Galactic plane, with only four outside a latitude range of ±1◦. This longitude region includes the brightest ...

A thermophilic, anaerobic, piezophilic, chemo-organotrophic sulfur-reducing bacterium, designated as KA3T, was isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal chimney sample collected at a depth of 2630 m on the East-Pacific Rise (13 degrees N). When grown under elevated hydrostatic pressure, the cells are rod-shaped with a sheath-like outer structure, motile, have a mean length of 1-1.5 microm and stain...

When soybean Glycine max var Wayne seedlings are shifted from a normal growth temperature of 28 degrees C up to 40 degrees C (heat shock or HS), there is a dramatic change in protein synthesis. A new set of proteins known as heat shock proteins (HSPs) is produced and normal protein synthesis is greatly reduced. A brief 10-minute exposure to 45 degrees C followed by incubation at 28 degrees C al...

Abstract The striped hyena ( Hyaena hyaena ) is an understudied large carnivore with no known historic range map. Knowledge of the past and present extent its easternmost distribution beyond 85° east longitude dubious. Through a comprehensive review historical evidence contemporary records, we investigated presence in Bengal, i.e., Bangladesh Indian state West Bengal South Asia. We found 14 old...

Abstract The longitudinal extents of solar energetic ( E > 10 MeV) particle (SEP) events in the heliosphere are a characteristic important for understanding SEP acceleration and transport as well their space weather effects. detectors on STEREO A B spacecraft launched 2008, combined with those Earth-orbiting spacecraft, have enabled recent studies this many events. Each event distribution ha...

The 1.0 meter f/4 fast-slew Zadko telescope is located in Western Australia, approximately seventy kilometers north of Perth at Yeal the Shire Gingin a dedicated "low-luminosity" area. It only class optical research facility this southern latitude between east coast Australia and South Africa can rapidly image transients longitude not monitored by other similar facilities. We review here main r...

extended abstractintroductionsiberian high-pressure is one of the most important systems in climatology, which has been focused by all climatologists because of its influence area and expansion zone.unique features of this system including the expansion zone,the intensity of central pressure,which sometimes amounts to more than1075hp pressure at its core,its temperature and moisture characteris...
