A mean residence time (MRT) is an important pharmacokinetic parameter. To the author's knowledge, however, a physiologically based structure of MRT (thereafter MRT structure) has not been published so far. Primarily this is because MRT structures cannot be identified by traditional pharmacokinetic methods used for the determination of MRT. Therefore, tools from the theory of linear dynamic syst...

Intercomparisons of hillslopes and catchments in different hydrogeomorphic settings are rare. Those comparison studies that have been completed have focused largely on bulk outflow and chemistry. Here, we present a new functional intercomparison of two well studied hillslopes: one in New Zealand at Maimai and one in Japan at Fudoji. Slope angle, slope length, soil depth, climate and vegetation ...

This research was performed to identify the incidence of deformity of lower extremity and to identify the relationship of the incidence between the deformities. Once the incidences and relationship are found, next purpose was to find the effects of physical characteristics and residence styles on the development of lower extremity deformities. One hundred fifteen males and 108 females participa...

the activation of carbon monoxide by oxygen on mg(100) surface has been investigated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (xps). carbon monoxide is only weakly adsorbed (dispersion-type forces) on a magnesium surface. the xps result has shown that the dissociation of carbon monoxide leading to the formation of a metastable surface carbonate species occurs through the participation of an oxygen s...
