[1] Infragravity waves can be observed at the 1000 m deep ocean bottom broadband seismic station MOBB on stormy as well as quiet days. When compared to the energy of the short-period ocean waves recorded at the local buoys, infragravity waves in the longer than 20 s period band are found to be mainly locally generated from shorter-period waves. Two types of modulation of the infragravity signal...

This study investigates the leaf anatomy of five Cupressaceae taxa in Kurdistan region-Iraq. Using light microscope for numerical and descriptive anatomical variations three species two varieties belonging to Cupressus, Platycladus, Juniperus genera were examined Taxonomic value. These include characters epiderm, hypoderm, mesophyll layer, resin canals, transfusion tracheids, pith, vascular bun...

male and female leaves and fruits of eleven different taxons of iranian conifers (cupressus sempervirens var. horizontalis, c. sempervirens var. sempervirens, c. sempervirens cv. cereifeormis, juniperus communis subsp. hemisphaerica, j. excelsa subsp. excelsa, j. excelsa subsp. polycarpos, j. foetidissima, j. oblonga, j. sabina, platycladus orientalis and taxus baccata) were collected from diff...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the various chemical components present in the volatile oil of the leaf of Cupressus torulosa and to find variation of essential oil components among the populations. Twenty-two, 17 and 20 compounds were identified with 95.45, 95.45 and 91.45% in Kalsi, Joshimath and Jeharikhal, respectively were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry ...

It has long been known that gastric mill network activity (cycle period 5-10 s) alters pyloric network output (cycle period approximately 1 s), but these effects have not been quantified. Many pyloric muscles extract gastric mill timed variations in pyloric motor neuron firing, and consequently produce gastric mill timed movements even though no gastric mill neurons innervate them. Determining ...

who by the time he had passed his final medical examination at the age of 40 had been a steel mill melter, a locomotive fireman, a barman, an insurance salesman, and a whisky pedlar, and also a medical student (off and on) for 18 years. After obtaining his qualification in 1948 he spent some time working at a general hospital, and this was followed by a highly successful period as a family doctor.

Simultaneous endoscopic and electrophysiological recordings were used to observe the behavior of the gastric mill complex while recording the motor output of the stomatogastric ganglion (STG) in intact crabs. In the crab STG, many pattern-generating neurons are able to fire in several distinct rhythmic motor patterns. Specifically, many neurons can switch between firing in time with the rapid p...
