An analytical one-dimensional model for vertical transmission of barometric pressure in soil unsaturated zone has been developed to examine the effect of free boundary caused by water table. The model is applicable to a special case in which the water table moves in according to the pressure with high barometric efficiency. Ambient sinusoidal pressure fluctuation is assumed at the soil surface....

1. A method is described for measuring tissue oxidation under reduced barometric pressure. 2. The oxygen uptake of yeast is diminished by low barometric pressures to a greater extent than by a reduction of the partial pressure of oxygen, to a corresponding degree, at atmospheric pressure. 3. This effect of low pressure is not observed with certain in vitro oxidation systems. 4. The anaerobic re...

BACKGROUND Associations between human behaviour and psychiatric decompensation and weather variables have been inconsistent. OBJECTIVES We studied the association of certain weather variables (specifically, humidity, wind speed, and barometric pressure) with emergent psychiatric presentations, psychiatric admissions, incidence of violent crimes, and suicides in a metropolitan area. METHOD W...

Seasonal and diurnal flight patterns of the invasive walnut twig beetle, Pityophthorus juglandis, were assessed between 2011 and 2014 in northern California, USA in the context of the effects of ambient temperature, light intensity, wind speed, and barometric pressure. Pityophthorus juglandis generally initiated flight in late January and continued until late November. This seasonal flight coul...

AIM To evaluate whether objective data could be obtained regarding internal pressure conditions of a molar tooth with canals prepared but not filled exposed to reduced barometric pressures that could be experienced by aircrew. METHODOLOGY The root canals of five mandibular molars were prepared but not filled. Root apices were sealed with a resin-modified glass-ionomer liner and root surfaces ...
