Studying hydrothermal systems in basement environments requires knowledge of fault and fracture network distributions. This study addresses this through multi-scale structural analysis the Têt its surrounding (Eastern Pyrénées) using remote sensing field data. aims to achieve through: 1) precisely mapping describing brittle network, 2) analysing distribution lineaments outcrop-scale fractures r...

In this study, two new climofunctions based on major elements are proposed from the study of 28 modern alluvial soils with pedogenic carbonate NE Spain. The first climofunction relates a base ratio (CaO, K2O) to mean annual temperature (MAT), and second one clayeness (Al2O3/SiO2) precipitation (MAP). both climofunctions, use parent material as normalizer gave best results, taking into account n...

Spatangoids are probably the least resolved group within echinoids, with known topological incongruencies between phylogenies derived from molecular (very scarce) and morphological data. The present work, based on analysis of 270 specimens Spatangidae (Echinoidea, Spatangoida) trawled in Sardinian seas (Western Mediterranean), allowed us to verify constancy some characters that we consider be d...

The first unique genus of ringtail possums from the Riversleigh World Heritage Area in Australia is diagnosed and described. Gawinga aranaea is the type and only species of the new genus and is known from nine isolated lower molars. It has been recovered from three Riversleigh deposits: two are of early to mid-Miocene age, while the age of the other has yet to be determined. The new possum is l...

The relative capacities of oligodeoxynucleotides, covalently linked to cellulose, to bind estradiol receptor complexes (E2R) of mouse uterine cytosol have been shown to follow the order oligo(dG) > oligo(dT) greater than or equal to oligo(dC) > oligo(dA). The E2R . oligo(dT)-cellulose-binding reaction is more sensitive to Cibacron blue F3GA than is E2R . oligo(dG)-cellulose or oligo(dC)-cellulo...

Functionalizable synthetic molecules with nanometer sizes and defined shapes in water are useful as molecular scaffolds to mimic the functions of biomacromolecules develop chemical tools for manipulating biomacromolecules. Herein, we propose oligo(N-methylalanine) (oligo-NMA) a peptide-based scaffold minimal structure high density functionalizable sites. Oligo-NMA forms shape without hydrogen-b...

Abstract Despite the surface geology of Kuwait appears to be scarce and most country is covered with Quaternary deposits except for a few outcrops Oligo-Miocene Pleistocene age, subsurface quite unique astonishing. The discovery hydrocarbon in at beginning last century helped geologists better understand structural especially by utilizing geophysical methods such as potential field (e.g., gravi...
