133 Golden, Kenneth M.; Zhu, Jing YiNetwork model for fluid transport through sea iceThe flow of liquid through porous sea ice is a fundamental process affecting problems in polar biology, oceanography and geophysics. The geometry and connectedness of the pore microstructure of sea ice determine its fluid permeability, which depends strongly on temperature. Here we analyze a simple ...Fluid transport; Pipe network; Brine2006
134 Coley, Phyllis D.New cytotoxic cinnamic acid derivatives from leaves of Bonamia trichanthaBioassay-guided fractionation of the methanolic extract of the young leaves of Bonamia trichantha led to the isolation of four new cinnamic acid derivatives trichanthins A-D (l-4).Their structures were established by spectroscopic methods. All compounds were tested in cytotoxic assays against the MC...Bonamia trichantha; Cinnamic acid; Caffeic acid ester; p-Coumaric acid ester: Farnesol; Z-(l l)-hexadecen-l-ol; Cytotoxicity2006
135 Bohs, Lynn A.New species of Solanum and Capsicum (Solanaceae) from Bolivia, with clarification of nomenclature in some Bolivian SolanumBolivian floristic diversity is high, reflecting its great topographic and habitat diversity. Habitats in Bolivia range from seasonally flooded savannas to arid Chaco and high elevation deserts to hyper-humid montane and lowland rainforests.Capsicum; Solanum; Bolivia; Biodiversity2006
136 Kestle, John R. W.; Walker, Marion L.Noncommunicating spinal extradural arachnoid cyst causing spinal cord compression in a childExtradural arachnoid cysts in the spine are relatively uncommon causes of spinal cord compression in the pediatric population that are thought to arise from congenital defects in the dura mater. Most reports describe such cysts communicating with the intrathecal subarachnoid space through a small de...2006
137 Furse, Cynthia M.Noncontact probes for wire fault location with reflectometryThis paper describes an approach to locate wire faults using reflectometry without physical contact with the wire conductor. This noncontact method is capable of locating faults on both dead and live powered wires with today's reflectometry technologies, and it does not require any modification or ...Wire fault location; Noncontact probes; Reflectometry; Capacitive coupling; Inductive coupling; Aging aircraft wire2006
138 Goller, FranzNonlinear model predicts diverse respiratory patterns of birdsongA central aspect of the motor control of birdsong production is the capacity to generate diverse respiratory rhythms, which determine the coarse temporal pattern of song. The neural mechanisms that underlie this diversity of respiratory gestures and the resulting acoustic syllables are largely unkn...Sound; Syllables; Song2006
139 Zhdanov, Michael S.Novel approach to the model appraisal and resolution analysis of regularized geophysical inversionThe existing techniques for appraisal of geophysical inverse images are based on calculating the model resolution and the model covariance matrices. In some applications, however, it becomes desirable to evaluate the upper bounds of the variations in the solution of the inverse problem. It is possib...Geophysical inversion; electromagnetic modeling; cauchy inequality; resolution analysis; lanczos decomposition method; SLDM; voisey's Bay; 3-D modeling2006
140 Yang, HaoriObservation of 238 U photofission productsAbstract-Sophisticated solutions are being developed by researchers to improve detection of clandestine fissile material. In this work, a simpler approach is investigated as an interim solution. Using the existing 9-MeV X-ray radiography units deployed for cargo inspection, delayed fission product g...2006
141 Mallat, ChibliOn the Specificity of Middle Eastern ConstitutionalismRen Maunier, a prolific French ethnologist and jurist (1887-1951), summed up in 1935 the radical transformation of Middle Eastern law since the nineteenth century.

142 Rajamani, RajOnline SAG mill pulse measurement and optimization semi-annual technical progress reportThe grinding efficiency of semi autogenous milling or ball milling depends on the tumbling motion of the total charge within the mill. Utilization of this tumbling motion for efficient breakage of particles depends on the conditions inside the mill. However, any kind of monitoring device to measure...2006
143 Beckerle, Mary C.Opposing roles of zyxin/LPP ACTA repeats and the LIM domain region in cell-cell adhesionCadherins mediate cell-cell adhesion by linking cell junctions to actin networks. Although several actin regulatory systems have been implicated in cell-cell adhesion, it remains unclear how such systems drive cadherin-actin network formation and how they are regulated to coincide with initiation o...Zyxin; Actin; Cadherin; LIM domains; VASP2006
