Paleomagnetic analysis and radiocarbon dating of an expanded Holocene deep-sea sediment sequence
recovered by Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 303 from Labrador Sea Site U1305
(Lat.: 57°28.5 N, Long.: 48°31.8 W, water depth 3459 m) provides insights into mechanisms that drive
both paleomagnetic secular variation (PSV) and magnetization acquisition...

The paper adopts the double-bootstrap data envelopment analysis developed by Simar and Wilson in 2007 to estimate and explain technical efficiency of white-leg shrimp farming in Ninh Thuan, Vietnam. This procedure not only enables consistent inference within models explaining efficiency scores but also produces confidence intervals for these efficiency scores....

It is well known that in mice the extension in lifespan by rapamycin is sexually dimorphic, in that it has a larger effect in females than males. In a previous study we showed that in male C57BL6 mice, rapamycin had less profound effects in both gene expression and liver metabolites...

Nonlinear optical processes can be described as multiphoton scattering events in terms of high order perturbation theory. The standard procedure for quantitative calculation of high order terms is to impose a steady state condition on the perturbative radiation fields. In the present work, this condition will be lifted, and explicit...
The Last Interglacial (LIG) represents an invaluable case study to investigate the response of components of the Earth system to global warming. However, the scarcity of absolute age constraints in most archives leads to extensive use of various stratigraphic alignments to different reference chronologies. This feature sets limitations to the...
Accessions of common wheat (Triticum aestivum
L. subsp. aestivum) from the USDA–ARS
National Small Grains Collection (NSGC) are a
resource for wheat scientists worldwide. The
genetic diversity of the wheat core subset, representing
approximately 10% of the collection’s
42,138 T. aestivum accessions, was examined
using 390 diversity arrays technology (DArT)...
The Oregon Wave Energy Trust (OWET) commissioned this study to develop protocols and
methods to achieve affordable, reliable, and repeatable electromagnetic (EM) measurements in
the near-shore environment. The study was conducted in several stages, with a number of
technical reports provided at each stage to document and describe findings. The...
