Mining activities are often severely disruptive to the landscape, and a major barrier reclamation after mining is lack of quality topsoil. This research addresses knowledge gaps in industry by exploring compositional nature topsoil stockpiles their ability facilitate post-mining revegetation long-term storage. To do this, we conducted an extensive profile characterization two at operations inte...

BACKGROUND In the case of a pandemic, individuals may alter their behaviour. A dynamic model incorporating social distancing can provide a mechanism to consider complex scenarios to support decisions regarding antiviral stockpile size while considering uncertainty around behavioural interventions. We have examined the impact of social distancing measures on the demand for limited healthcare res...

In 2009, public health agencies across the globe worked to mitigate the impact of the swine-origin influenza A (pH1N1) virus.

Eggs of Xenopus laevis contain exceptionally large amounts of materials involved in chromosome replication. This maternal stockpile allows an embryo to produce about 80 000 cells in less than 24 h. The adaptations which achieve this involve the mechanisms of both DNA replication and chromatin assembly.
