BACKGROUND Suicide is an important world health issue, especially in territories inhabited by indigenous people. This investigated differences in suicide rates, suicide methods, and suicide occurrence by month and day of the week among the indigenous and non-indigenous populations of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug (NAO) and to compare the findings from the NAO with national Russian statistics. M...

Through calculating the scatter diagrams of the streamfunction ( P or T) versus potential vorticity (PV) (qP or qT), where P and T are the planetary-scale streamfunction and total streamfunction, respectively, and using a weakly nonlinear NAO model proposed in Part I of this paper, it is suggested that negativeand positive-phase NAO events may approximately correspond to free modes even though ...

The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), meteorological variables, air pollutants, and hospital admissions due to diseases of circulatory systems in Lisbon (Portugal) during winter months (2003-2012). This paper is one of the few studies analyzing the impact of NAO on health through its influence on thermal stress and air pollution and is th...

The simulated North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) teleconnection patterns and their interannual variability are evaluated from a suite of atmospheric models participating in the second phase of the Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project (AMIP-2). In general the models simulate the observed spatial pattern well, although there are important differences among models. The NAO response to interannu...

Abstract IUPAC Holds its First NAO Forum to Foster Internal Communication and Engagement within Stakeholders

26 Release of cytochrome c from mitochondria to the cytosol is a critical step for 27 downstream caspase-mediated apoptotic signal transduction in ischemia/reperfusion 28 (I/R)-induced myocardial tissue injury. 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO), a 29 cardiolipin-specific dye, has been shown to inhibit Bid-mediated cytochrome c release 30 from isolated mitochondria in vitro; however, the possible...

In this study we analyzed the influence of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) on the streamflow in 187 sub-basins of the Iberian Peninsula. Monthly and one-month lagged correlations were conducted to assess the spatiotemporal extent of the NAO influence on Iberian river discharges. Analysis of the persistence of the winter NAO throughout the year was also undertaken, together with analysis of...

Within the framework of a Tyndall Centre research project, sea level and wave changes around the UK and in the North Sea have been analysed. This paper integrates the results of this project. Many aspects of the contribution of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) to sea level and wave height have been resolved. The NAO is a major forcing parameter for sea-level variability. Strong positive res...
