To breathe or not to breathe.
WHY KIDS DON’T BREATHE What beginners discover is that they really don’t need to take any extra breath to make a sound on their instrument. They can make a sound and get by with whatever breath they have on hand at the moment. Besides, they are inundated with so many other things to think about – holding the instrument, embouchure, different pitches, counting, fingerings, articulation – why bot...
متن کاملRespiratory gut peristalsis by sea spiders.
The fundamental constraint shaping animal systems for internal gas transport is the slow pace of diffusion [1]. In response, most macroscopic animals have evolved systems for driving internal flows using muscular pumps or cilia. In arthropods, aside from terrestrial lineages that exchange gases via tracheal systems, most taxa have a dorsal heart that drives O2-carrying hemolymph through periphe...
متن کاملSnow on Antarctic Sea Ice
Snow on Antarctic sea ice plays a complex and highly variable role in air-sea-ice interaction processes and the Earth’s climate system. Using data collected mostly during the past 10 years, this paper reviews the following topics: snow thickness and snow type and their geographical and seasonal variations; snow grain size, density, and salinity; frequency of occurrence of slush; thermal conduct...
متن کاملSeasonal to interannual variability in Antarctic sea-ice surface melt
Satellite remote sensing time-series images are used to illustrate the spatial and temporal variability in Antarctic-wide seaice surface melting during the austral summer. Combinations of collocated data from the Active Microwave Instrument on board the ERS-1/2 spacecraft, RadarSat Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and SSM/I passive microwave radiometer are used in characterization of the effects ...
متن کاملResilience of the Present Climate to Antarctic Sea-Ice Loss
The role played by Southern Hemisphere sea-ice in global climate is explored using an Earth system climate model of intermediate complexity. An ensemble of experiments is analysed where freshwater forcing equivalent to a complete 100 year meltback of Southern Hemisphere sea-ice is applied to a model run that simulates the present climate. This freshwater forcing acts to mildy subdue Southern Oc...
