This paper investigates the benefits of integrating coarse resolution satellite-derived precipitation estimates with quasi-point rain gauge data for generating a fine spatial resolution precipitation map product. To integrate the two precipitation data sources, a geostatistical downscaling and integration approach is presented that can account for the differences in spatial resolution between d...

but W. E. Snawdon: This patient was first seen by me on the 18th August 1959, quite k I should mention that he had been a patient at the Dental Hospital for their a/ew.yearsI have his record card here from which I see he first came under Patie Wln? *n I953> so we know that for several years he was an apparently normal iwje and had routine conservative dentistry. I think in 1953 he came with a r...

The photodissociation of methyl iodide at different wavelengths in the red edge of the A-band (286-333 nm) has been studied using a combination of slice imaging and resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization detection of the methyl fragment in the vibrational ground state (nu=0). The kinetic energy distributions (KED) of the produced CH(3)(nu=0) fragments show a vibrational structure, both in th...

nloaded ough Wnt1 downstream signaling components as well as cytoplasmic level of metastatic tumor antishort form (MTA1s) are elevated in human breast cancer, it remains unknown whether a regulatory talk exists between these two pathways. Here, we provide evidence of a remarkable correlation bethe levels of MTA1s and stimulation of the Wnt1 signaling components, leading to increased stabin of β...

This study was conducted to determine the presence of Acinetobacter and Rickettsia species DNA in lice and Melophagus ovinus (sheep ked) of animals from Oromia Regional State in Ethiopia. From September through November 2011, a total of 207 cattle, 85 sheep, 47 dogs and 16 cats were examined for ectoparasites. Results of morphological identification revealed several species of ectoparasites: Li...

introduction the knowledge about spatial variability of precipitation is a key issue for regionalization in hydro-climatic studies. measurements of meteorological parameters by the traditional methods require a dense rain gauge network. but, due to the topography and cost problems, it is not possible to create such a network in practice. in these cases the spatial distribution pattern of precip...
