"P. gowardii" is a tripartite lichen, consisting of fungus, alga, and "Nostoc" cyanobacteria. It has a gelatinous consistency due to living in aquatic or semi-aquatic locations, most often mountain streams or springs above elevation. It grows in small rosettes attached to rock. It has a dark blue-green to black colour when above water, but becomes olive-green when submerged. It can be distinguished from algae or plants by the distinctive veins along the backside of the thallus, as well as round, brown apothecia present. These apothecia are the sexually reproductive parts of the lichen, and no vegetatively reproductive parts are seen.

In 1988, Burckle received a commission as a 2nd Lieutenant through the Reserve Officer Training Corps at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Burckle intended to become a fighter pilot. However, her vision disqualified her. In lieu, she chose navigation and requested bombers. At the time, the US Army did not allow women to serve on combat bomber aircraft. In 1990, she graduated first in her navigator training class at Mather Air Force Base.

Chapter three concerns graphic matroids, the matroids of spanning trees in graphs, and the greedy algorithm for minimum spanning trees. Chapter four includes material on transversal matroids, which can be described in terms of matchings of bipartite graphs, and includes additional material on matching theory and related topics including Hall's marriage theorem, Menger's theorem (an equivalence between minimum cuts and maximum sets disjoint paths in graphs), Latin squares, and gammoids. The final chapter concerns matroid representations using linear independence in vector spaces, labeled as an appendix and presented with fewer proofs.

Harris's research into earthquakes involves a combination of computer simulations and field and laboratory investigations. She is particularly interested in creeping faults, faults that creep for long periods of time while producing multiple small earthquakes. In California, Harris quantified stress within the Parkland segment of the San Andreas Fault, estimated changes in stress during the 1992 Landers earthquake, and tracked the impact of the 1857 Fort Tejon earthquake on subsequent earthquakes in the region. She has simulated the movement of fractures across multiple segments of fault plans, and considered the role of earthquake depth and soil type in determining the strength of earthquakes such as the 2017 Puebla earthquake. Harris led the community effort to validate computer models of earthquakes with field-based verification efforts.

The club became inactive in the 1970s. Activity resumed a few years later when the club founder Robert Blake returned to the area as a temporary replacement for the Pensacola Junior College astronomy instructor. He got together such of the old membership as were still in the area in late 1977 and planned a reactivation of the club with the facilities of the community college—such as their Owens Planetarium. With this backing, the club became more and more active. When the astronomy instructor returned, he donated the first large portable telescope to the club—permitting public viewing. Since the 1980s the club hosted a summer viewing program for the National Park Service at the Fort Pickens campground—taken over from a Pensacola Junior College professor Dr. Frank Palma who had previously given the programs. When an annular eclipse took place nearby in May 1984, the club raised the money for safe Mylar solar filter material and then gave programs to schools on how to safely watch the event—with filters handed out at no cost to the students. In 1982, Merry Edenton-Wooten became club president, and her astronomy-related business Draco Productions became the club's sponsor in 1992. She obtained permission from Thomas Baader to purchase and use the new solar filter material, and sell it in a variety of sizes. Draco Productions began making affordable, safe, and superior quality solar filters (endorsed by NASA and the Astronomical League) for naked-eye viewing as well as scope or binocular use with the new Baader solar filter film from the Baader Planetarium in Germany in 1990. Edenton-Wooten has also given many filters to school teachers and students. She believes that making these fine filters, telescopes, and astronomy educational materials available to everyone is her most important contribution to astronomy. For the August 2017 eclipse, Draco and the EAAA provided more than 5000 free safe solar filters to students and the public.

The ESBN is experiencing a surge in the demand for soil information in Europe, for addressing a number of environmental problems and questions. These include: leaching of agrochemicals, deposition of heavy metals, disposal of waste (agricultural, domestic and industrial), degradation of soil structure (through loss of soil organic matter, salinisation and subsoil compaction), risk of erosion (by water and wind), immobilisation of radionuclides, supply of water at catchment level, assessing the suitability (and sustainability) for traditional and alternative crops, and estimation of soil stability.

The design of such coatings generally starts with an approximate analytical solution and then uses the simplex method of multi-variable optimisation to solve for optimal thicknesses of the layers. Typically the thin layers (to reflect high-energy X-rays) are on the inside since low-energy X-rays are absorbed more readily. One model used is a power law distribution of thicknesses, with the thickness of the ith bilayer as a/(b+i)^c for some optimised a, b, c.

The B domain of SpA (SpAB) consists of three a-helices which are retained upon interaction with the Fc fragment of IgG. Protein A contains five highly homologous immunoglobulin (Ig)-binding domains in tandem (designated domains E, D, A, B and C), which share a common structure consisting of three helices in a closed left-handed twist. Protein A can exist in both secreted and membrane-bound forms, and has two distinct Ig-binding activities: each domain can bind Fc-gamma (the constant region of IgG involved in effector functions) and Fab (the Ig fragment responsible for antigen recognition).

The laboratory maintains an extensive numerical modeling and measurement capability for the design and development of thin, broadband antennas with tailored performance and controlled impedance surfaces for management/control of signature characteristics of systems and components; they cover electromagnetic phenomena from quasi-static to ultraviolet wavelengths. Numerical modeling has recently been extended to nano- and micro-magnetics phenomena with emphasis placed on modeling of nano particle nonlinear magnetics (NPNM). Novel techniques for correlating optical and infrared scattering properties with material composition have been developed and modeled for application to paint and photographic film characterization, optical signature control, and the evaluation of sensors and image based tracking algorithms.

Tucker’s geologic research focuses on volcanic rocks in the Mount Baker region in the northwestern portion of the North Cascades. Tucker obtained a masters degree in geology at Western Washington University in 2004. His thesis mapped and described the previously little known and undefined Hannegan caldera, including geochemistry of related rocks. The 3.72-million-year-old Hannegan caldera is in the North Cascades National Park a few miles northeast of Mount Shuksan. The caldera is 8x3.5 km in area. Tucker estimated the erupted volume at around 140 km of rhyolite magma. The caldera is traversed by trails to Hannegan Pass, Copper Ridge, and the Chilliwack River. Ruth Mountain, Icy Peak and Hannegan Peak are the dominant geographic features in the caldera.

SB203580 specifically inhibits the catalytic activity of p38 MAPK by competitively binding to the active site where ATP is supposed to bind and is used to probe the role of p38 MAPK in cells. SB203580 amplified the lipopolysaccharide-induced increase in the G-CSF mRNA levels in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages and in THP-1 human macrophages. By displaying that the decay of G-CSF mRNA, in the presence of actinomycin D, was slower in SB203580-treated cells. SB203580 increased the stability of G-CSF mRNA. SLDE is essential for the SB203580-induced increase in the stability of mRNA.

The shell is often found broken and the two layers separated. P. attenuata's unusual shape and the fragmentary nature of many of its fossils are both causes of its frequent misclassification as a brachiopod.

Termites, in the order Blattodea, also have an advanced social network. The termite social network evolved separately from the Hymenoptera, and has some key differences. Instead of just a reproductive queen, termites have a reproductive royal pair, the king and queen, that stay in the colony to produce offspring. The other colony members are divided into workers and soldiers. Workers and soldiers can be male or female, and lack wings, eyes, and developed sex organs unlike the reproductive members. Workers perform all of the colony's maintenance, such as caring for young, cleaning, building tunnels, and feeding the other members. The soldiers primary goal is to defend and guard the entrance to the colony.

Because BIK1 is a possible regulator of the FLS2-BAK1 complex, it is speculated that "in vitro", BAK1 phosphorylates BIK1, which then phosphorylates both FLS2 and BAK1. However, "in vivo", BIK1 is not phosphorylated until about 5-10 minutes after the addition of FS2, and the peak phosphorylation occurs just after the phosphorylation of the FS2-BAK1 complex. It is speculated that BIK1 activation might be enhanced through transphosphorylation by BAK1 rather than by FLS2 because FLS2 more likely serves as a scaffold protein for the arrangement of the BAK1-FLS2 complex. This hypothesis will require more testing "in vivo". Research has shown that BIK1 and BAK1 are signaling partners for the flagellin receptor FLS2 and that the three together initiate defense response. However, BIK1 and BAK1 phosphorylate different residues of the FLS2 receptor with the exception of only a select few. This suggests that both BAK1 and BIK1 play unique roles in defense response by a series of phosphorylation reactions with one another and the flagellin receptor FLS2.

The Columbia River basin is a major watershed and the largest river in the Pacific Northwest region of North America. Extending from southern British Columbia to northern Nevada, the watershed includes seven American states and two Canadian provinces and drains an area of about 260,000 square miles. The Columbia River stretches 1,620 miles in length until its discharge into the Pacific Ocean near Astoria, Oregon. The average annual discharge rate of the Columbia River changes due to climate and land-use variability, but generally ranges from 120,000 to 260,000 cubic feet per second. Finally, the population of the Columbia River Basin within the United States is about 4.6 million people (per the 2000 census).

In order to assess whether the ability to degrade yeast mannan is a general feature of the microbiota or it is a specific adaptation of "B. thetaiotaomicron", the authors analysed the growth profiles of 29 species of Bacteroidota on the human bowel. The analysis revealed that only nine are able to metabolize "S. cerevisiae" alfa-mannan while 33 of 34 strains of "B. thetaiotaomicron" are able to grow on this glycan. These results show that "B. thetaiotaomicron" along with some phylogenetically related species dominate the yeast metabolism of α-mannan in the phylum Bacteroidota of the microbial flora.

The three-gap theorem says: take arbitrarily finitely many integer multiples of an irrational number between zero and one and plot them as points around a circle of unit circumference; then at most three different distances will occur between consecutive points. This answered a question of Hugo Steinhaus. The theorem belongs to the field of Diophantine approximation since the smallest of the three distances observed may be used to give a rational approximation to the chosen irrational number. It has been extended and generalised in many ways.

Even with that recent history the Pioneers had skewed an already home-favored schedule for 1961 with 20 games at home and only 8 on the road. They were able to do this in part because they now belonged to the WCHA rather than being an Independent program and as a result they would only have to be one of the two best squads in the 7-team conference to have home-ice in the playoffs.

The integration of biological data, including protein structures, interactions etc. can be generated through automated technology. The importance of such data can often be lost without proper visualisation of the data. The Systems Biology Initiative is currently working on an adaptation of the Skyrails Visualisation System. This system, called the interactonium uses a virtual cell for the visualisation of the interaction network, protein complexes and protein 3-D structures of "Saccharomyces cerevisiae". The tool can display complex networks of up to 40 000 proteins or 6000 multiprotein complexes. The Interactorium permits multi-level viewing of the molecular biology of the cell. The Interactorium is available for download.

Greater investment in agricultural research could make a significant contribution to increasing agricultural production to the levels required to feed the world’s growing population. Furthermore, additional investments in agricultural research are required to address emerging challenges, such as increasing weather variability, adaptation to climate change, water scarcity, and increased price volatility in global markets. Despite this growing attention to the agricultural sector and the role of agricultural research, many low- and middle-income countries continue to struggle with serious and deepening capacity and funding constraints in their agricultural research and higher education systems.

Reviewing the world premiere, Bernard Holland of "The New York Times" wrote, "What Ms. Zwilich does she does with great skill and sincerity. The contrapuntal interplay is sure and effective, although at the end I don't think that altitude, pressure and repetition are quite enough to create the substance and weight she is after." Reviewing a later performance by the Philadelphia Orchestra, Judith White of "The Saratogian" wrote, "The music makes the audience sit up and listen, as the instruments from various sections achieve difficult unisons and staggered harmonies." Lawrence A. Johnson of the "Sun-Sentinel" opined, "It's outrageous that music of the Miami-born Ellen Taaffe Zwilich continues to be so neglected, not least in her home state. The Pulitzer Prize winner's Third Symphony is among her finest works, concise and deeply felt, with a powerful Largo finale."

Anammox processes are used in wastewater treatment applications and can help with the removal of ammonium in wastewater. "Ca." A. propionicus has a competitive advantage in ammonium-limited natural ecosystems since they can reduce nitrate and/or nitrite to ammonium. Although anammox bacteria are found in a wide variety of environments, it is not common that multiple anammox bacteria co-exist.

It has been shown that the genes involved in allergy and asthma, are implicated in both immune and inflammatory processes . These genes belong to the family of Toll receptors ( LTRs ) type, a family of proteins that form part of the innate immune system . These receptors are transmembrane and recognize molecular patterns expressed by a wide spectrum of infectious agents, thereby stimulating inflammatory responses, as well as being a link between innate and adaptive immunity . Apart from these receptors, associated with allergy genes encoding cytokines, chemokines and other transcription factors occur.

However, Tawara postulated that ventricular contraction occurs in the opposite manner, with the apex contracting earlier than the base. He also believed that the heart's electrical conduction was not slow but rapid. Working under the guidance of his mentor, Ludwig Aschoff, Tawara performed a histological examination of 150 hearts with myocarditis (which led to the discovery of Aschoff bodies), and he began examining the atrioventricular bundle before embarking on a comprehensive study of the anatomy and histology of the heart's conduction system.

In 2005, the Chilean government alongside the private IT sector started a program called "Mi Primer PC", with the idea of bringing low-cost PC to the general population. The program was heavily criticized at the time, mainly due to the fact that the computers offered were severely limited due to the usage of Windows XP Starter Edition. This program is not related to the similarly called "Yo Elijo Mi PC" program, put in place during the presidency of Michelle Bachelet which aims to bring computers to primary school students in lower socio-economical classes.

CD1 proteins are structurally similar to MHC class 1 proteins, containing 3 domains and non-covalently bound β2 microglobulin. They lack the genetic diversity typical of MHC genes and have a very limited number of polymorphisms, most of which produce silent mutations. Their variability reflects the limited scale of the lipid repertoire found in organisms compared to the large variety of proteins. Proteins can also easily acquire mutations, whereas the multi-step process of lipid synthesis is much less likely to change.

An early example of usability engineering in an agile software development environment can be found in the work of Larry Constantine and Lucy Lockwood who designed a browser-resident classroom information management system. During this process, the design team worked directly with an education team, which served as both subject-matter experts and representative end users to develop initial user role models and an inventory of task cases. This process mimics participatory design. With this material, mock-ups were iteratively designed to achieve the desired goal of “the stringent design objective of enabling immediate, productive use of the system based on a single-page tutorial.”

By the end of the regular season Providence was considered a 'bubble team' for the NCAA Tournament and would need a very good performance in the Hockey East Tournament to improve their standing if they couldn't get an automatic bid. The first impediment for the team was Hockey East using a power index to decide conference placement rather than win percentage. This meant that Providence finished below Connecticut despite possessing a better record and would have to play a road game in the quarterfinals. The team was easily able to overcome that difficulty and defeated the Huskies 6–1. Their next opponent, Massachusetts, was not as easily beaten. After a good start, Providence was shut out over the final 50 minutes of play and lost 2–5.

He contributed to the ‘Proceedings’ of that body, was its treasurer from 1854 to 1856, and was elected its secretary in 1858, a post which he resigned in 1871, when he was appointed agent of the branch of the City of Glasgow Bank in St. Vincent Street, Glasgow. On 8 April 1856 he had married Elizabeth Anderson, daughter of Thomas Anderson of Girvan. She formed extensive geological collections illustrative of the fossils of the silurian rocks of the south of Scotland during the family's annual holidays at Girwen.

The Wadeichthys species was the second smallest of the five extinct fish found at Koonwarra. [11] These five families of extinct fish known from the Koonwarra fossil bed include Ceratodontidae (Dipnoi), Leptolepididae (Clupeiformes), Archaeomaenidae (Pholidophoriformes), Coccolepididae (Palaeonisciformes) and Koonnwarriidae.[12] Palaeontologist Stephen Poropat identifies this site as "one of the great fossil localities of the Mesozoic era", earning it the name of Koonwarra "Lagerstätte." [13] " "The term Lagerstätte translates to 'storeroom place' and was coined by German palaeontologist Dolf Seilacher in 1970 to describe a site of where fossil are both abundant and exceptionally preserved.

Reinforcing fillers such as carbon nanotubes that have high mechanical moduli have been used commonly to create polymer composites with high strength and toughness. Since the modulus and filler amount are linked, by varying the amount of filler across the polymer the modulus will similarly change. Additionally, since long nanofillers create anisotropic moduli, if the direction of the nanofiller could be modified along the length of the polymer, the modulus gradient could also be tuned in this manner.

MOF-177 is another example of a MOF material containing the tetrahedral ZnO cluster but with a more complex and extended tricarboxylate linker. The carboxylate molecule in this case in the large BTB molecule (BTB = benzene-1,3,5-tribenzoic acid). This large yet rigid tri-carboxylate unit connects to the cluster in the same manner as in the MOF-5 structure but as there are three carboxylate units and a triangular geometry, this produces a more spherical porous cage structure rather than the cubic pore geometry in MOF-5. MOF-177 has been shown to have the one of the largest surface areas of known materials to date. Literature states a Langmuir surface area value of 4500 mg with N adsorption giving a type I isotherm with adsorption of 1350 mg g-1 between 0.4 and 1 P/P0.50 These values show that MOF-177 is a highly porous open framework MOF material with a 3-dimensionally connected array of porous cages.

Let formula_16 be represented spaces and let formula_17 be partial multi-valued functions. We say that formula_6 is "Weihrauch reducible" to formula_19, and write formula_20, if there are computable partial functions formula_21 such thatformula_22where formula_23 and formula_24 denotes the join in the Baire space. Very often, in the literature we find formula_25 written as a binary function, so to avoid the use of the join. In other words, formula_26 if there are two computable maps formula_27 such that the function formula_28 is a realizer for formula_6 whenever formula_30 is a solution for formula_31. The maps formula_27 are often called "forward" and "backward" functional respectively.
