The empirical relationship found between column-integrated Arctic ozone loss and the potential volume of polar stratospheric clouds inferred from meteorological analyses is recalculated in a self-consistent manner using the ERA Interim reanalyses.The relationship is found to hold at different altitudes as well as in the column.The use of a PSC form
Kiwifruit (Actinidia spp.) is susceptible to waterlogging stress.Although abundant wild germplasm resources exist among Actinidia plants for improving the waterlogging tolerance of kiwifruit cultivars, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown.Here, a comparative study was undertaken using one wild germplasm, Maorenshen (A.valvata Dunn, MRS)
Human actions such as electricity generation are contributory causes of climate change.In a quest to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases associated with electricity generation from fossil fuels, the world is turning to renewables.Renewable sources, however, also do have an impact on the environment.Likewise, renewable electricity generation is
Cells are the most basic structural and functional unit of living organisms.In recent years, people have paid more attention to cell heterogeneity.In order to characterize the heterogeneity of cells and prevent the life information in an individual cell from being overwhelmed by the average level of the population gained from traditional cell biolo
Over the last 10 years, the use of zirconium dioxide ceramics as a framework material for the manufacture of microprostheses, single crowns and small bridges has increased.Their use in dental practice became possible with the help of CAD/CAM technologies.Clinical studies of ceramic restorations based on zirconium dioxide showed promising clinical r
