Red cells, derived from 13 patients with iron-deficiency anaemia, were found to have a normal life span in the patients' own circulations and those of normal volunteers.

A three-dimensional Regional Ocean Modeling System is used to study the seasonal water circulations and transports of the Southern South China Sea. The simulated seasonal water circulations and estimated transports show consistency with observations, e.g., satellite altimeter data set and re-analysis data of the Simple Ocean Data Assimilation. It is found that the seasonal water circulations ar...
