Field Observations During the Eighth Microwave Water and Energy Balance Experiment (MicroWEX-8): from June 16 through August 24, 2009 by Tara Bongiovanni, Heather Enos, Alejandro Monsivais-Huertero, Blaire Colvin, Karthik Nagarajan, Jasmeet Judge, Pang-Wei Liu, Juan Fernandez-Diaz, Roger De Roo, Yuriy Goykhman, Xueyang Duan, Daniel Preston, Ramesh Shrestha, Clint Slatton, Mahta Moghaddam, Anthony England

“… In order to really accurately predict weather and near-term climate, it is necessary to take into consideration soil moisture in the top meter of soil: it governs moisture and energy fluxes at the land-atmosphere interface, and it plays a significant role in partitioning of the precipitation into runoff and infiltration. This 68-page report presents the observations of an experiment using remotely sensed microwave observations with a view towards incorporating the findings into the models used to estimate energy and moisture fluxes and improve root zone soil moisture estimates. …”

Predicting oxytocin binding dynamics in receptor genetic variants through computational modeling by Preeti Dubey, Yingye Fang, K. Lionel Tukei, Shobhan Kuila, Xinming Liu, Annika Sahota, Antonina I. Frolova, Erin L. Reinl, Manasi Malik, Sarah K. England, Princess I. Imoukhuede

“…The model was parameterized using experimentally derived, cell-specific OXTR surface localization measurements and literature-reported OXT-OXTR-binding kinetics. The model revealed differences in time to equilibrium between HEK293T and myometrial cells, distinct dynamics among genetic variants, and that early increases in OXT could partially rescue diminished responses in V281M and E339K variants. …”

Laser-induced coherent spin change due to spin-orbit coupling by In Cheol Yu, Jung Hyun Oh, Je-Ho Shim, Kab-Jin Kim, Byong-Guk Park, Dong-Hyun Kim, Kyoung-Whan Kim, Hyun-Woo Lee, Kyung-Jin Lee, Fabian Rotermund

“…Abstract Direct light-spin interactions, induced by spin-orbit coupling (SOC), enable ultrafast spin manipulation through coherent spin excitation, which is universal in magnetic materials due to the ubiquity of SOC. Despite earlier reports, coherent spin excitation has been overlooked, because of the challenges of interpreting magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) signals and the assumption of optical dipole transitions. …”
