A global tectonic regionalization, GTR1, has been constructed for use in seismological studies of aspherical heterogeneity. Three oceanic regions are defined by equal increments in the square root of crustal age (25and lO0-m.y. isochrons), and three continental regions are distinguished according to their generalized tectonic behavior during the Phanerozoic (Precambrian shields and platforms, P...

the secondary spindle afferents. It has been shown (Binder et al. 1976; Binder & Stuart 1980a) that not only group Iaafferents but also spindle group 11 derents are responsive to a distinctive set of motor units in a muscle. Windhorst and Meyer-Lohmann (1977) suggest that synchrony in neighboring spindles is caused not only by activity in specific motor units, but perhaps also by shared gamma i...

This brief commentary examines why regionalization can improve the extent to which resources are allocated in line with need; highlights the challenges associated with the two stages of resource allocation within regionalized systems (allocation from the ministry to the regions and allocation within a region); and assesses the experience with needs-based funding in Canada under regionalized gov...

Regionalization of agricultural research across countries has received considerable attention in recent years, with the establishment of regional and sub-regional organizations in most regions. Recently, the CGIAR System has called for a regional approach to research involving bottom-up priority-setting and implementation, and integrating this with global priority-setting. This paper explores t...

PURPOSE To describe the public health systems and their projected futures in six provinces in the context of two developments: 1) the emerging discourse on population health and 2) the trend toward regionalization of the health care system. METHODS Telephone interviews with key informants and key document review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Communicable disease control and health protection are...

We analyze pattern formation in doubly resonant intracavity second-harmonic generation in the presence of competing nondegenerate parametric downconversion. We show that for positive cavity detuning of the fundamental frequency the threshold for parametric oscillation is lower than that of transverse, pattern forming instabilities. The parametric oscillation strongly modifies the pattern dynami...
