AIMS The aim of this research was to explore and capture complementary therapists' experiences of and preparation for working with patients in an acute cancer care setting. METHOD Semi structured interviews with therapists (n = 18) in an acute cancer hospital in the North West of England. The interviews were transcribed and analysed using thematic coding. RESULTS Key themes identified inclu...

We provide the in-depth characterization of light-polymer nanowire interactions in the context of an effective Mie scattering regime associated with low refractive index materials. Properties of this regime sharply contrast with these of resonant Mie scattering, and involve the formation of strictly forward-scattered and coupling-free optical fields in the vicinity of core-shell polymer nanowir...

Solar radiation is a fundamental driver of ecosystem productivity, but widespread estimates light available for primary producers in rivers are lacking. We developed model to predict river and used it estimate production across the contiguous United States (CONUS). Successively accounting riparian water column processes improved predictions as function light. calculated ratio width tree height ...
