Middle Bronze Age Settlement Patterns in the Western Galilee, Israel

Aharon Kempinski and Wolf-Dietrich Niemeier excavated Tel Kabri, in the western Galilee region of Israel (fig. 1), in the late 1980s and early 1990s (Kempinski, Scheftelowitz, and Oren 2002).

Land Use and Ceramic Distributions in Western Rough Cilicia, Turkey

Deforestation and land use changes in Western Ghats, India

We estimated changes in forest cover between 1973 and 1995 in the southern part of the Western Ghats using satellite data. The study area of approximately 40,000 km showed a loss of 25.6% in forest cover over 22 years. The dense forest was reduced by 19.5% and open forest decreased by 33.2%. As a consequence, degraded forest increased by 26.64%. There has been a great deal of spatial variabilit...

The Bronze Age of science in Spain.

in conjunction with our results, demonstrate that in certain H. pylori strains, CagA plays an essential role in the activation of NF-κB. We acknowledge in our article that CagA may not be the only component that H. pylori uses to activate inflammation. Compelling evidence exists that under some circumstances other H. pylori factors can induce an inflammatory response. For example, CagA clearly ...
