On the Dynamics of Two-Dimensional Capillary-Gravity Solitary Waves with a Linear Shear Current by Dali Guo, Bo Tao, Xiaohui Zeng

“…Both depression wave and large amplitude elevation wave are found to be stable, while small amplitude elevation wave is unstable to the small perturbation, and it finally evolves to be a depression wave with tails, which is similar to the irrotational capillary-gravity waves.…”

Our Interplanetary Bodies by Marie Siguier

“…While the sublime Burkean modernist was an illusionist and attempted to distance the observer from a terrifying nature to have him feel terror, elevation or rapture, the installation encompasses the individual and sends him back to his own physical and cognitive experience, as well as to an renewed experience of space and senses through immersion in a “cosmos programme” that nevertheless produces a feeling of elevation faced with what Lyotard called “the unpresentable”: the absolutely great, the absolutely powerful.…”

Effect of Experimental Warming on Forage Nutritive Value and Storage in Alpine Meadows at Three Different Altitudes of Nianqing Tanggula Mountain, Northern Tibet: A Long-Term Exper... by Fusong Han, Wei Sun, Shaowei Li, Chengqun Yu, Jun Xu, Tianyu Li, Yujie Deng, Dorblha, Chuhong Chen, Dawaqiongda, Luobu, Gang Fu

“…A long-term warming experiment (with open-top chambers used to elevate temperature) was conducted at three elevations (relatively low, mid-, and high elevations with 4313, 4513, and 4693 m) of Northern Tibet in 2010 to compare the differences in forage nutritional quality and storage response to warming among three elevations and to explore the relationships between forage nutritional quality and production. …”

Sepsis in Internal Medicine: blood culture-based subtypes, hospital outcomes, and predictive biomarkers by Gaetano Zizzo, Gabriele Guazzardi, Daniela Bompane, Francesco Di Terlizzi, Giorgio Rotola, Ilario Stefani, Michela Medugno, Mario Bucalo, Antonino Mazzone

“…Blood culture-negative sepses showed shorter stays and higher mortality (acute kidney injury and fast deterioration) compared to culture-positive ones; polymicrobial sepses showed higher ICU transfer rates (acute respiratory distress); while multidrug-resistant (MDR+) and/or polymicrobial sepses showed longer stays and higher mortality (complicated course) compared to drug-sensitive or monomicrobial ones. C-reactive protein elevation predicted rapidly evolving culture-negative sepsis, whereas lower leukocyte counts predicted prolonged hospitalization; higher fractions of inspired oxygen predicted polymicrobial sepsis, while lactate elevation predicted ICU transfer; ferritin elevation and increased leukocyte counts predicted MDR+ sepsis, while further ferritin elevation and decreased platelet counts predicted death. …”

An Efficient 2-D DOA Estimation for a Cylindrical Conformal Array with Unknown Mutual Coupling by Chao Liu, Shunian Yin

“…To avoid the time-consuming two-dimensional spectral peak searching, the 2-D DOA estimation is decoupled and divided into two 1-D DOA estimations. Elevation is first estimated based on a subarray estimation of signal parameters via rotation invariant technique (ESPRIT), and then azimuth is estimated based on the rank reduction (RARE) method by using the elevation estimation result. …”
