But the Taliban and al-Qaeda can never be defeated in Afghanistan alone because they have "strategic depth"—places to lick their wounds and train to fight another day.
The deployment of the instruments at those exact geographical coordinates was based on ease of access to the sites, human activity level near these regions and sensitivity of the apparatuses in the water depths placed.
In Depth: Places With The Fewest Newcomers.
For molecular analysis, 1 L of water was collected in triplicate (three van Dorn casts for each sub-surface and bottom depth sampling), placed in autoclaved polypropylene bottles and stored at 4°C on wet ice.
In October 2002 four measurement sites were established in each of the 15 plots; collars made of PVC pipe of 108 mm inner diameter and 44 mm depth were placed 12.5 m into the plot, measured from the centres of each of the fours sides of the plot.
To further address the concern of differences in processing depth, we placed ourselves under 'blindsight' conditions by asking subjects to perform a forced-choice location task in which performance was excellent even on subjectively invisible trials.
Sandy sediment from Kaichu-Doro Beach (26° 19′ 56.1′′ N, 127° 54′ 0′′ E; October, 2013) Okinawa Japan, was sampled to 25 cm depth and placed into 500 mL bottles to approximately half capacity, filling the remainder of the bottle with seawater.
Histological analysis confirmed that cells from 9 of the rats were recorded from hippocampal subfield CA1; the electrode track could not be identified in the remaining rat but the calculated depth putatively placed this in CA1 also.
In a subset of D/+ mice, however, we used both surface and depth electrodes placed in the amygdala and hippocampus to explore whether seizures originated focally in either of these regions.
The back of the weir should match the gravel depth being placed in the stream channel.
