Micro-seismicity induced by fluid migration can be used to monitor the migration of fluids during reservoir production and hydro-fracturing operations. The seismicity is usually monitored with sparse networks of seismic sensors. The sparsity of the sensor networks degrades the accuracy of the estimated event locations. This inaccuracy often makes it impossible to infer the fluid pathways at the...

1. Immunoreactive angiotensin II was measured in cerebrospinal fluid of four normal dogs. 2. The migration of this immunoreactive angiotensin II on polyacrylamide-slab gel electrophoresis was identical with the migration of the heptapeptide, Des-Asp1-angiotensin II, in each case. 3. The biological activity of the material from canine cerebrospinal fluid in a pressor bioassay was similar to that...

The Farnsworth Unit in northern Texas is a field site for studying geologic carbon storage during enhanced oil recovery (EOR) using CO2. Microseismic monitoring essential risk assessment by detecting fluid leakage and fractures. We analyzed borehole microseismic data acquired CO2 injection migration, including denoising, event detection, location, magnitude estimation, moment tensor inversion, ...

When cells migrate through constricting pores, they incur DNA damage and develop genomic variation. Experiments show that this damage is not due to DNA breakage from mechanical stress on chromatin in the deformed nucleus. Here we propose a model for a mechanism by which nuclear deformation can lead to DNA damage. We treat the nucleus as an elastic-fluid system with an elastic component (chromat...

[1] Fluid distribution in convergent margins is by most accounts closely related to tectonics. This association has been widely studied at accretionary prisms, but at half of the Earth’s convergent margins, tectonic erosion grinds down overriding plates, and here fluid distribution and its relation to tectonics remain speculative. Here we present a new conceptual model for the hydrological syst...
