Marine temperature extremes are anomalous ocean events, often persisting over several weeks or longer, with potential impacts on physical and ecological processes that encompass socio-economic implications. In recent years, a considerable effort has been directed at the development of metrics allowing an objective characterization both marine heatwaves (MHWs) cold spells (MCSs). However, majori...

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to analyze the influence design management control systems (MCSs) on interorganizational cooperation and moderating role companies’ identification with their technology park. conditions that promote emergence are indicated in literature as an important research gap, well little evidence about how MCS influences cooperation, especially relationships based innov...

Abstract A climatology of large, long-lived mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) over eastern South Africa for the extended austral summer (September-April) from 1985-2008 is presented. On average, 63 MCSs occur here in summer, but with considerable interannual variability frequency. The mainly between November and March, a December peak. This seasonal cycle MCS activity shown to coincide favora...

Abstract. Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are especially visible in the summertime when there is an advection of warm maritime air from west. Advection masses enriched by water vapour, source which can be found over Mediterranean Sea. In propitious atmospheric conditions, and thus significant convection, instability or strong vertical thermal gradient leads to development thunderstorm syste...

BACKGROUND Fatty acids synthesized in chloroplast are transported to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for triacylglycerols (TAGs) resembling. The development of chloroplast also requires lipids trafficking from ER to chloroplast. The membrane contact sites (MCSs) between ER and chloroplast has been demonstrated to be involved for the trafficking of lipids and proteins. Lipids trafficking between ER a...

Rational ligand design is a complex problem that can be divided into three parts: the search for optimal positions and orientations of functional groups in the binding site, the connection of such positions to form candidate ligands, and the estimation of their binding constants. Approaches for addressing the first two parts of the problem are described in the present work. They are applied to ...

ABSTRACT With companies increasingly expected to undertake potentially costly climate-response strategies, we explore the roles of management control systems (MCSs) in how simultaneously manage their decarbonization objectives and financial commitments. Based on research at 19 European chemical, steel, utility corporations, extend concept “proactive/reactive” response strategies by proposing th...

Eastern China is perennially hit by mesoscale convective systems (MCSs), yet it remains an open question as to whether and how their general properties change throughout the annual cycle. By leveraging high-resolution satellite observations a hybrid tracking algorithm, we present 20-year (2001–2020) climatology of MCSs over eastern during eight subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) monsoon stages. cont...

While extended infusions of piperacillin-tazobactam (TZP) are increasingly used in practice, the effect of infusion on the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of TZP has not been widely assessed. To assess its effect on the pharmacokinetic profile of TZP, seven serum samples were collected from 11 hospitalized patients who received 3.375 g TZP intravenously for 4 h every 8 h. Population pharmacokineti...

[1] Dual-Doppler and polarimetric radar observations are used to analyze two mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) that occurred during the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Large-Scale Biosphere-Atmosphere field campaign. The MCSs formed in different meteorological regimes, based on profiles of atmospheric wind and thermodynamic data. The first MCS event (26 January 1999) was a squall line tha...
