Comparisons of satellite temperature profile products from GPS radio occultation (RO) and hyperspectral infrared (IR)/microwave (MW) sounders are made using a previously developed matchup technique. The profile matchup technique matches GPS RO and IR/MW sounder profiles temporally, within 1 h, and spatially, taking into account the unique RO profile geometry and theoretical spatial resolution b...

BACKGROUND Acute symmetric deep cerebellar lesions suggest toxic exposure. OBJECTIVE To describe a patient with striking neurologic and magnetic resonance image features. DESIGN Case report. SETTING Emergency department and office. METHODS Personal observation. RESULTS A middle-aged man had a day of unsteadiness, followed by acute and pronounced cerebellar signs. The degree of disabil...

The magnetic resonance sounding (MRS) technique is a non-invasive geophysical method that can provide unique insights into the hydrological properties of groundwater. The Cu coil sensor is the preferred choice for detecting the weak MRS signal because of its high sensitivity, low fabrication complexity and low cost. The tuned configuration was traditionally used for the MRS coil sensor design b...

Probing the structure and rotation of the solar core is one of the greatest challenges to helioseismology. We show that the seismic information in the observed low degree solar oscillations which probe the core is severely contaminated. This contamination arises from theSun’s near surfacemagnetic activity. The effect on the oscillation frequencies varies with the solar cycle–vanishing at solar ...

Taxonomy of philosophical theories of Sound: proximal theories; medial theories; distal theories. A distal theory: The Located Event Theory (LET) of sound – Understanding sound and the cognition of sounding objects; ontology of sound according to the LET; epistemology of the perception of sound and sounding objects; auditory images according to the LET; conceptual revisions entailed by distal t...

Magnetic resonance sounding (MRS) is a novel geophysical method to detect groundwater directly. By applying this method to underground projects in mines and tunnels, warning information can be provided on water bodies that are hidden in front prior to excavation and thus reduce the risk of casualties and accidents. However, unlike its application to ground surfaces, the application of MRS to un...

However, the MRS measurements suffer from a low signal to noise ratio due to the signal being inherently weak and the susceptibility to electromagnetic interference. The low signal to noise ratio currently impedes the applicability of the technique, particularly in urban areas. In recent years the development of multichannel MRS has opened up new possibilities for advanced noise cancellation me...
