For two watersheds in the northern Midwest United States, we show that landscape depressions have a significant impact on watershed hydrology and sediment yields and that the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) has appropriate features to simulate these depressions. In our SWAT models of the Willow River in Wisconsin and the Sunrise River in Minnesota, we used Pond and Wetland features to cap...

RAPOPORT, STANLEY I., AND WADE H. MARSHALL. Measurement of cortical pH in spreading cortical depression. Am. J. Physiol. 206(5) : I 177-1180. 1g64.-The pH of the rabbit cortex was measured during the course of spreading cortical depression. Spreading cortical depression was elicited by chemical (group I) and by electrical (group II) means. Cortical d-c potential changes were recorded separately...

The brain is a complex organ with active components composed largely of neurons, glial cells, and blood vessels. There exists an enormous experimental and theoretical literature on the mechanisms involved in the functioning of the brain, but we still do not have a good understanding of how it works on a gross mechanistic level. In general, the brain maintains a homeostatic state with relatively...

A single pulse of transcranial magnetic stimulation has been shown to be effective for the acute treatment of migraine with and without aura. Here we aimed to investigate the potential mechanisms of action of transcranial magnetic stimulation, using a transcortical approach, in preclinical migraine models. We tested the susceptibility of cortical spreading depression, the experimental correlate...
