Some studies have suggested that this deficit is due to dissociation (repression), or an inability to perceive emotions, whereas others argued that the deficit is due to suppression of emotional information after it...
Over 70% of the Antarctic krill population exists along the Antarctic Peninsula, a region undergoing rapid climate change. Recent studies have shown a clear correlation between krill recruitment each spring and the timing and coverage of sea ice the winter before, with less sea ice and a shorter duration being...

Autism and Alexithymia are two disorders characterized by deficiencies in interpersonal and emotional processing. For example, both of these disorders are associated with deficits in the ability to identify and judge the emotions of others. For diagnosis, patients are typically assessed for such deficiencies using published tests of emotion perception...

This work prepared YInMnO3, YCuTiO3, and YInFeO3 solid state pigments via microwave synthesis. The microwave-prepared pigments contain optical and structural properties similar to their furnace homologues. Overall synthesis times for each pigment have been significantly reduced via microwave synthesis, while keeping the same relative phase purity as solid-state.

Vibrio cholerae is a gram-negative gammaproteobacteria, well
known for causing the watery-diarrheal disease Cholera. V. cholerae is
endemic to the marine and freshwater ecosystems of India and
surrounding aquatic environments within that region. Primary
reservoirs include brackish water and estuaries. The primary symptom
is rapid dehydration due to watery diarrhea....
The Mount Thompson 7.5 Minute Quadrangle is located in the central Boulder Batholith, between the cities of Butte and Helena. The Boulder batholith is host to numerous metalliferous vein deposits, including those in the Butte District. Recent USGS (EDMAP)-funded geologic mapping at 1:24,000 scale in the Mount Thompson Quadrangle during...
As juvenile salmon migrate from freshwater into saltwater, physiological changes must occur to allow fish to osmoregulate in the marine environment. Juvenile spring Chinook salmon migrate to the ocean at different time periods, most notably in the fall (August – November; i.e. fall smolts) and spring (February – May; i.e....
