Photorealistic 3D models, representing an object’s surface geometry textured with conventional photography, are used for visualization, interpretation and spatial measurement in many disparate fields, such as cultural heritage, archaeology and throughout the earth sciences, including geology. Virtual models of geological outcrops allow for large quantities of geometric data, such as sizes of fe...

Doxapram is a respiratory stimulant thought to act by stimulating medullary neurones and carotid oxygen receptors (Kato and Buckley 1964). It changes neither oxygen uptake nor CO2 production, but produces substantial hyperventilation (Calvedey et al 1983). Hyperventilation occurs during naturally occurring or pharmacologically induced panic attacks, and perhaps also in panic patients between at...

We converted the Teacher Behaviors Checklist (TBC; Buskist, Sikorski, Buckley, & Saville, 2002) to an evaluative instrument to assess teaching by adding specific instructions and a Likert-type scale. Factor analysis of the modified TBC produced 2 subscales: caring and supportive and professional competency and communication skills. Further psychometric analysis suggested the instrument possesse...
