Oceanographers are Talented—Eventually

Bayesian Analysis for Oceanographers

Bayesian statistics provides a general framework for the treatment of problems involving uncertainty. A brief introduction to the principles of Bayesian analysis is presented. Special attention is given to the application of the Bayesian viewpoint in deterministic settings. Short reviews of the roles the Bayesian approach plays in areas of interpolation or \objective analysis" and data assimila...

Oceanographers' contribution to climate modelling and prediction: progress to date and a future perspective.

The ocean plays an essential role in determining aspects of the climate through its influence on coupled processes involving the atmosphere, cyrosphere and biogeochemistry, including budgets of heat and carbon dioxide and sea-level rise. Here, the key developments in ocean modelling over the past 20 years are reviewed and the prospects for the next 20 years are outlined, considering a hierarchy...

What are Stem Cells?

  Stem cells are undifferentiated self regenerating multi potential cells. There are three types of stem cells categories by the ability to form after cells and correlated with the body’s development process. Totipotent: these stem cells can form an entire organism such as fertilized egg. Ploripotent: ploripotent cells are those that can form any cell in the body but cannot form an entire organ...

P30: Are There Anxious Genes?

Anxiety comprises many clinical descriptions and phenotypes. A genetic predisposition to anxiety is undoubted; however, the nature and extent of that contribution is still unclear. Extensive genetic studies of the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) transporter (5-HTT) gene have revealed how variation in gene expression can be correlated with anxiety phenotypes. Complete genome-wide linkage s...
