Although early adversity has been linked to worse mental and physical health in adulthood, few studies have investigated the pathways through which positive and negative dimensions of early experiences can jointly influence psychological well-being in later life. This study examined: (a) profiles of early experiences across multiple domains, (b) the...
Computer system I/O has evolved with processor and memory technologies in terms of reducing latency, increasing bandwidth and other factors. As requirements increase for I/O, such as networking, storage, and video, descriptor-based DMA transactions have become more important in high performance systems to move data between I/O adapters and system...
This study investigates the response of the global mean and spatial variations of the δ¹⁸O value of atmospheric CO₂ (δCₐ) to changes in soil CO₂ hydration rates, relative humidity, the δ¹⁸O value of precipitation and water vapor, visible radiation, temperature, and ecosystem flux partitioning. A three-dimensional global transport model was...
We examine the relation between δ¹⁸O in rainwater collected in southwestern Oregon
and climate variables including temperature, parcel trajectory, precipitation amount, and
specific humidity. Local surface air temperature at the time of sample collection explains a
large proportion of δ¹⁸O variability, suggesting that paleoclimatic archives that are related
to rainfall...
Metal–insulator–metal diodes with Nb₂O₅ and Ta₂O₅ insulators deposited via atomic layer deposition are investigated. For both Nb₂O₅ and Ta₂O₅, the dominant conduction process is established as Schottky emission at small biases and Frenkel–Poole emission at large biases. Fowler–Nordheim tunneling is not found to play a role in determining current versus...

This study provides estimates of a complete demand elasticities matrix for meat, poultry, fishery fish,
aquaculture fish, as well as shrimp and shell fish in Taiwan, using the linear approximate almost ideal demand system.
Estimation is based on aggregate annual consumption data complied from Taiwan Food Balance Sheets during 1970-1998....
This manuscript describes the role of non-classical hydrogen bonds (NCHBs), specifically C–H···O interactions, in modern synthetic organic transformations. Our goal is to point out the seminal examples where C–H···O interactions have been invoked as a key stereocontrolling element and to provide predictive value in recognizing future and/or potential C–H···O interactions...
