We reply to the commentaries on the lead papers by Neale et al. [1994a] and Duffy and Martin [1994]. Topics covered include power calculations, cross-sectional measurement vs. lifetime reports, the appropriateness of the direction of causation (DOC) model, extensions to study causation between the latent variables, sampling of subjects, and heterogeneity. We consider the potential of combining ...

This bulletin is based on research conducted by Professor Terry Burke and Ms Liss Ralston at the AHURI UNSWUWS Research Centre, and Professor Michael Stone from the University of Massachusetts, USA. The project considered the policy implications of using a different measure for housing affordability— using the residual income rather than the income ratio method. What does the residual income me...

Abstract—A methodology is proposed for estimating the optical attenuation and proportional depth variation of shallow inland water. The process is demonstrated with EO-1 Hyperion hyperspectral and IRS-P6 LISS-3 multispectral images of Kolkata city nearby area centered around 22o33′ N 88o26′ E. The attenuation coefficient of water was found to change with fine resolution of wavebands and in pres...

Mechanical forces are crucial to muscle development and function, but the mechanisms by which forces are sensed and transduced remain elusive. Evidence implicates the sarcolemmal lattice of integrin adhesion and the Z-disk components of the contractile machinery in such processes. These mechanosensory devices report changes in force to other cellular compartments by self-remodeling. Here we exp...

This article is an introduction to the special issue of the journal Proteins, dedicated to the sixth CASP experiment to assess the state of the art in protein structure prediction. The article describes the conduct of the experiment and the categories of prediction included, and outlines the evaluation and assessment procedures. A brief summary of progress over the decade of CASP experiments is...
