Heavy chronic alcohol consumption has been linked to a myriad of
detrimental skeletal effects. Many studies have been conducted to examine
the effects of alcohol abuse upon cancellous bone. However, little is known
about its effect upon cortical bone. The skeleton is comprised of
approximately 80% cortical bone and thus...
Microbial communities mediate the biogeochemical cycles that drive ecosystems, and it is important to understand how these communities are affected by changing environmental conditions, especially in complex coastal zones. As fresh and marine waters mix in estuaries and river plumes, the salinity, temperature, and nutrient gradients that are generated strongly...
Bud dormancy in grapevine is an adaptive strategy for the survival of drought, high and low temperatures and freeze dehydration stress that limit the range of cultivar adaptation. Therefore, development of a comprehensive understanding of the biological mechanisms involved in bud dormancy is needed to promote advances in selection and...
Digital printing techniques offer several advantages in manufacturing electronics such as direct writing of materials, reduction of chemical waste, and scalability. In particular, printing can significantly simplify manufacturing processes by directly defining the channel area, the gate, and the source and drain contacts, allowing for lower costs and higher throughput...
This dataset supports a research project and paper where we define criteria for assessing the effectiveness of data sharing, under the assumption that the goal of data sharing is to make the data usable, with minimal effort, to the new user. We take the position that the bar should be...
