A. C. 2010. What are the mechanisms of regeneration post-disturbance in tropical dry forest? CEE review 07-013 (SR37). Environmental Evidence:

Elevated intraocular pressure is the main risk factor in primary open-angle glaucoma, involving an increased resistance to aqueous humor outflow in the juxtacanalicular region of the conventional outflow pathway which includes the trabecular meshwork (TM) and the inner wall of Schlemm's canal (SC). Previously, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) was shown to decrease outflow facility in porcine and h...

Agnotology is a term that has been used to describe the study of ignorance and its cultural production (Proctor in Agnotology: the making and unmaking of ignorance. Stanford University Press, Stanford, 2008). For issues that are contentious in the societal realm, though largely not in the scientific realm, such as human evolution or the broad basics of human-induced climate change, it has been ...

Introduction The immunopathogenesis of TRAPS is thought to centre on activation of the innate immune system resulting in episodic inflammation. The adaptive immune system, Tregs and Th17 T cells, has not been studied in TRAPS. Different anti-TNF agents have different clinical effects on TRAPS i.e. etanercept has benefits but adalimumab and infliximab may trigger flares of TRAPS. It has been sho...

Thirteen betelvine cultivars (PB 001 to PB 013) collected from different locations of Bangladesh showed remarkable variations in disease reaction foot and root rot caused by Sclerotium rolfsii. The lowest incubation period 8 days was required for the 005 (BARI line), 006 (Misti pan), 009 Pan-1) 010 (Bangla pan) highest 22 (Laldingi 013 (Gayasur appearance 1st symptoms. incidence ranged 8.33 100...

We have demonstrated the ability to perform a ductile material removal operation, via single-point diamond turning, on single-crystal silicon carbide (6H). To our knowledge, this is the first reported work on the ductile machining of single-crystal silicon carbide (SiC). SiC experiences a ductile-to-brittle transition similar to other nominally brittle materials such as silicon, germanium, and ...
