BLACK CARBON EMISSIONS, TRANSPORT AND EFFECT ON RADIATION FORCING MODELLING DURING THE SUMMER 2019–2020 WILDFIRES IN SOUTHEAST AUSTRALIA

Black Carbon Emissions, Transport and Effect on Radiation Forcing Modelling during the Summer 2019–2020 Wildfires in Southeast Australia

The emission of black carbon (BC) particles, which cause atmospheric Sticker warming by affecting radiation budget in the atmosphere, is the result of an incomplete combustion process of organic materials.The recent wildfire event during the summer 2019–2020 in south-eastern Australia was unprecedented in scale.The wildfires lasted for nearly 3 m

Modified nodal stage of esophageal cancer based on the evaluation of the hazard rate of the negative and positive lymph node

Abstract Background The study aimed to propose a modified N stage of esophageal cancer (EC) on the basis of the number of positive lymph node (PLN) and the number of negative lymph node (NLN) simultaneously.Method Data from 13,491 patients with EC registered in the SEER database were reviewed.The parameters related to prognosis were investigated us

Evaluation of seismic resistance capacity on pipe braced supporting frame of spherical tank by shaking experiment

Significant fire and explosion accident on spherical tanks for Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) storage was induced by the strong ground motion of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake.Steel pipe braces were broken due to the strong seismic inertia force, and then buckling of support legs occurred.To prevent recurrence, reinforcing the intersection of

Neisseria gonorrhoeae Exposed to Sublethal Levels of Hydrogen Peroxide Mounts a Complex Transcriptional Response

ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae mounts a substantial transcriptional program in response to hydrogen peroxide (HP), a prominent reactive oxygen species (ROS) encountered during infection.We tested which strain FA1090 genes show differential transcript abundance in response to sublethal amounts of HP to differentiate HP-responsive signaling from wide
