Detection of Looping During Colonoscopy Using Embedded Sensors1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Interactive Feedback between the Tropical Pacific Decadal Oscillation and ENSO in a Coupled General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The output from a coupled general circulation model (CGCM) is used to develop evidence showing that the tropical Pacific decadal oscillation can be driven by an interaction between the El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) ...
Development of a Distal Tip Extension Mechanism for Endoscopes1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Novel Ex Vivo Testing Model for Monopolar Hot Biopsy Forceps
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Evaluation of Feedback Enabled Active Colonoscopy Training Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this research is to evaluate the efficacy of an active colonoscopy training model (ACTM). Colonoscopy is a widely utilized procedure for diagnosing diseases of the lower gastrointestinal tract. Since ...
Warm Pool and Cold Tongue El Niño Events as Simulated by the GFDL 2.1 Coupled GCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent studies report that two types of El Niño events have been observed. One is the cold tongue (CT) El Niño, which is characterized by relatively large sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the eastern Pacific, and ...
The Inverse Effect of Annual-Mean State and Annual-Cycle Changes on ENSO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The influence of the tropical Pacific annual-mean state on the annual-cycle amplitude and El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) variability is studied using the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology coupled general circulation ...
ENSO-Like and ENSO-Induced Tropical Pacific Decadal Variability in CGCMs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: utputs from coupled general circulation models (CGCMs) are used in examining tropical Pacific decadal variability (TPDV) and their relationships with El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Herein TPDV is classified as either ...
Lower-Tropospheric Enhancement of Gravity Wave Drag in a Global Spectral Atmospheric Forecast Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impacts of enhanced lower-tropospheric gravity wave drag induced by subgrid-scale orography on short- and medium-range forecasts as well as seasonal simulations are examined. This study reports on the enhanced performance ...
Medical Equipment to Make Colonoscopy Procedures Safer for Physicians: Control Head Holder and Splatter Shield1
