Environmental Flows Determination and Monitoring with Hydraulic Habitat Models-Pushing the Boundaries of Habitat Models Application

Mikolaj Stanislaw Adamczyk, Piotr Parasiewicz

Hydraulic habitat simulation models were designed for the quantitative determination of environmental flows that consider the needs of aquatic fauna in rivers and streams. In the past 50 years, the modeling techniques were significantly developed, but expe ...

Segmentation of Developing Human Embryo in Time-lapse Microscopy

Mathieu Salzmann

Being able to efficiently segment a developing embryo from background clutter constitutes an important step in automated monitoring of human embryonic cells. State-of-the-art automatic segmentation methods remain ill-suited to handle the complex behavior a ...

Ultrascale and Microscale Growth Dynamics of the Cidaroid Spine of Phyllacanthus imperialis Revealed by Mg-26 Labeling and NanoSIMS Isotopic Imaging

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Stéphane Laurent Escrig

Growth dynamics of the primary spine of the cidaroid sea urchin Phyllacanthus imperialis was assessed for the first time using pulsed Mg-26-labeling and NanoSIMS isotopic imaging. The sea urchin was incubated twice (for 48 h) in artificial seawater with el ...

Micro- to nanostructure and geochemistry of extant crinoidal echinoderm skeletons

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

This paper reports the results of micro- to nanostructural and geochemical analyses of calcitic skeletons from extant deep-sea stalked crinoids. Fine-scale (SEM, FESEM, AFM) observations show that the crinoid skeleton is composed of carbonate nanograins, a ...

Stable carbon and oxygen isotope compositions of extant crinoidal echinoderm skeletons

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

The variability of delta C-13 and delta O-18 was determined within the columnal facet of individual ossicles, within different regions of skeletons and within bulk skeletons of extant stalked crinoids. Isotopic compositions of individual ossicles may vary ...

26Mg labeling of the sea urchin regenerating spine: Insights into echinoderm biomineralization process

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Christophe Kopp

This paper reports the results of the first dynamic labeling experiment with regenerating spines of sea urchins Paracentrotus lividus using the stable isotope Mg-26 and NanoSIMS high-resolution isotopic imaging, which provide a direct information about the ...

Delayed coupling theory of vertebrate segmentation

Andrew Charles Oates

Rhythmic and sequential subdivision of the elongating vertebrate embryonic body axis into morphological somites is controlled by an oscillating multicellular genetic network termed the segmentation clock. This clock operates in the presomitic mesoderm (PSM ...

Symmetry, XPD, and port isolation in an ACMPA array with dual linear polarization

Roberto Torres Sánchez

Aperture coupled microstrip patch antennas (ACMPA) are very convenient array elements for designing high directivity planar antennas. Dual polarization ACMPA arrays for Direct Broadcasting Services (DBS) have the problems of low cross-polar discrimination ...

High-Yield Synthesis of Multi-Branched Urchin-Like Gold Nanoparticles

Francesco Stellacci

Here, we report on an aqueous room temperature synthesis method for the production of gold nanoparticles that have a number (> 4) of branches ultimately resembling the shape of sea urchins. The particles are synthesized in the presence of water soluble thi ...

Rotational and torsional analysis of the OH-stretch third overtone in (CH3OH)-C-13

Thomas Rizzo

We record double resonance spectra of the 4nu(1) band of jet-cooled C-13-methanol using single rotational state selection in the nu(1) fundamental and subsequent promotion of the selected molecules to the fourth vibrational level. We then detect transition ...
