Abstract: limate change is increasingly recognized as having national security implications, which has prompted dialogue between the climate change and national security communities?with resultant advantages and differences. Climate ...

Abstract: During the winters of 1997 and 1998, a total of 24 Lagrangian floats were deployed in the Labrador Sea. These floats were designed to match the buoyancy and compressibility of seawater. They measured temperature and ...

Abstract: Intensive data collection in the region of the Labrador Sea northwest of former Ocean Weather Station Bravo during the winter of 1998 allowed examination of the meso- and submesoscale structure during active convection. ...

Abstract: Measurements of deep convection from fully Lagrangian floats deployed in the Labrador Sea during February and March 1997 are compared with results from model drifters embedded in a large eddy simulation (LES) of the rapidly ...

Abstract: The use of biplanar videoradiography technology has become increasingly popular for evaluating joint function in vivo. Two fundamentally different methods are currently employed to reconstruct 3D ...

Abstract: Prior to the 2013 Interim Revisions of the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications [AASHTO (2013). Interim Revisions to AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, 6th Ed., Washington, DC], the value of reinforcing steel ...

Abstract: High-strength steel reinforcement provides various benefits to the concrete construction industry, including a more efficient use of high-performance concrete, reduction of reinforcing bar congestion, and materials savings. ...

Abstract: Flow limitation in liquid-filled lungs is examined in intact rabbit experiments and a theoretical model. Flow limitation (“choked” flow) occurs when the expiratory flow reaches a maximum value ...
