National mapping programs (e.g., INFOMAR and MAREANO) and global efforts (Seabed 2030) acquire large volumes of multibeam echosounder data to map large areas of the seafloor.Developing an objective, automated and repeatable approach to extract meaningful information from such vast quantities of data is now essential.Many automated or semi-automated
Understanding carbon footprint (CF) terminology and the science underlying its determination is important to minimizing the negative impacts of new product development and assessing positive or negative cradle-to-grave life-cycle impacts.Life cycle assessment has been used to characterize representative field-grown and container-grown landscape pla
Although many interventions for acute spinal cord injury (SCI) appear promising in experimental models, translation directly from experimental ultrastar dc hc550 animals to human patients is a large step that can be problematic.Acute SCI occurs frequently in companion dogs and may provide a model to ease translation.Recently, incision of the dura h
Reverse osmosis (RO) is one of the major technologies for seawater desalination, while pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) is a promising technology for power generation.The RO desalination plant has the problems of extensive energy consumption and brine discharge, which can be alleviated by hybridizing the RO process with the PRO process as an integra
Thymidine kinase 1 (TK1) phosphorylates thymidine nucleosides to generate thymidine monophosphate.This reaction belongs to the pyrimidine salvage route that is phylogenetically conserved.In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, TK activity contributes to maintain nuclear and organellar genome integrity by providing deoxythymidine-triphosphate (dTTP
