One of the most successful applications of satellite-borne radar altimeter data over the oceans in recent years has been the extraction of information about long-wavelength baroclinic Rossby (or planetary) waves, which play a significant role in ocean circulation and climate dynamics. These waves cross ocean basins from east to west at speeds of few centimetres per second at mid-latitudes. The ...

Halifax is situated 44? 40' north latitude, and 63? 31' west longitude. It is built on a promontory and nearly surrounded by water, and lies on a slope opposite one of the noblest harbours in the world. Its position is admirably adapted for sanitary purposes. There is a well arranged system of sewerage; the houses are not overcrowded, and actual want is unknown amongst the population. The tempe...

on the topmost central plateau of the district in the midst of a group of conical hills," which with the gentle undulation of the soil adds to the picturesqueness of the scene. It has an elevation of abcut 2,000ft. above the sea-level, and is situated in 23? 59 min. north latitude and 85 ?27 min. east longitude. Originally a military cantonment station, the town is well-laid-out with broad road...

We investigate the beaming of 11 Io-Jupiter decametric (Io-DAM) emissions observed by Juno/Waves, Nançay Decameter Array, and NenuFAR. Using an up-to-date magnetic field model three methods to position active Io Flux Tube (IFT), we accurately locate radiosources determine their emission angle θ from local vector. These use (a) updated models IFT equatorial lead angle, (b) ultraviolet (UV) image...

Pelagic clay of the east-central Pacific province is shown to be a mixture of three primary detrital components, reflecting continental source areas in Asia, North America, and Central and South America. Relative contributions from each source area are a function of geography, and this distribution appears to have remained constant over the past five million years, despite changing flux rates. ...

The aim of the present study was to examine whether changes in temperature alter the effects of halothane and isoflurane on isolated left atria. Concentration-response curves for inotropic effects at different temperatures (30 degrees C, 37 degrees C, 40 degrees C) on electrically stimulated left atria of the rat were obtained. The change of temperature modified the maximal negative inotropic r...

The apparent position of the Sun in relation to any surface is defined by solar incident angle. angle forms vector and normal observed surface. spatial aforementioned vectors determined coordinates, which include: declination, latitude, hour angle, longitude, elevation azimuth surface, inclination north-south direction east-west direction. This article describes detail theoretical model for det...

Orbitomeatal basal line-anthropological basal line (OML-ABL), and the acanthiomeatal line (AML)-ABL crossing angles were measured using profile pictures. There were 219 volunteers in total: 42 people four years old, 44 people nine years old, 45 people 14 years old, 43 people 19 years old, and 45 people 40 years or older (48±7.4 years). The average OML-ABL crossing angle was 14.3 degrees in the ...

The transforming ability in 10% serum medium of the temperature-sensitive mutants of simian virus 40 in the complementation group III (ts640 type mutants) was greatly reduced when the infected rat 3Y1 cells were incubated at the restrictive temperature of 40 degrees or incubated first at 40 degrees for 3 days and then shifted to the permissive temperature of 33 degrees. Transformation did occur...

Increased participation in outdoor activities and an epidemic of homelessness have caused the incidence of cold injuries in the civilian population of Turkey to rise dramatically during the past 20 years. Knowledge of treatment is crucial for emergency physicians in rural and urban areas. Recent developments have significantly advanced the understanding of the pathophysiology of hypothermic and...
