Cross-culturally, most music is tonal in the sense that one particular tone, called the tonic, provides a focus around which the other tones are organized. The specific organizational structures around the tonic show considerable diversity. Previous studies of the perceptual response to Western tonal music have shown that listeners familiar with this musical tradition have internalized a great ...

We evaluated the diagnostic value of antibody to Blastomyces dermatitidis A precipitin arcs for identifying B. dermatitidis cultures by the exoantigen technique with 88 isolates from the United States and Canada, 12 from Africa, and 1 each from India and Israel. In addition, we studied 190 mycelial-form isolates of other fungi which could be confused antigenically or morphologically with B. der...

[1] Paleoclimate records from glacial Indian and Pacific oceans sediments document millennial-scale fluctuations of subsurface dissolved oxygen levels and denitrification coherent with North Atlantic temperature oscillations. Yet the mechanism of this teleconnection between the remote ocean basins remains elusive. Here we present model simulations of the oxygen and nitrogen cycles that explain ...

Fresh water hosing simulations, in which a fresh water flux is imposed in the North Atlantic to force fluctuations of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, have been routinely performed, first to study the climatic signature of different states of this circulation, then, under present or future conditions, to investigate the potential impact of a partial melting of the Greenland ice ...

Samples of albacore Thunnus alalunga from 6 locations worldwide were used for blood group analysis according to the binding patterns of 8 different lectins. Conventional tag recapture data was reviewed and a spatially structured tag attrition model was fitted to data from the North Atlantic and the Mediterranean. Blood group analyses suggest that: (1) the Pacific population is the most distant ...

Indian women have had to fight for their property rights a long time, just like in other countries. women's are not fair or equal, but they come way the last 100 years. still less than men, both terms of amount and quality those rights.
 When it involves rights, lot different ideas. India is home various religions, each one has its own rules about how live. The right something these aspect...
