Background: A deeper understanding of how heat wave definition affects the relationship between heat exposure and health, especially as a function of rurality, will be useful in developing effective heat wave warning systems.
The oceanographers H.U. Sverdrup and Walter Heinrich Munk combined theory and empirical relationships in developing a method of forecasting "significant wave height"—the average height of the highest third of the waves in a wave train.
We recently published a security analysis of mobile money apps in developing countries, focusing on a new wave of branchless banking applications designed for smartphones.
In particular, the success in developing the chip of the plasma wave receiver is crucial to realize the small housing of the sensor probe.
This study investigates the suitability of surface waves in developing an innovative tomography technique for non-destructive evaluation of concrete structures.
Research focusing on vulnerability assessment to climate-related hazards has been widely conducted in developed countries across many academic disciplines (31, 32), but few studies have been done to assess the health vulnerability to heat waves in developing countries.
More particularly, programmed changes in the germ cell DNA methylation state serve as developmental triggers for gametogenesis, as illustrated by the two demethylation waves in developing PGCs (Hajkova et al., 2002).
The first occurs following the global demethylation event that precedes embryo implantation, and the second following a similar wave of demethylation in developing primordial germ cells (PGCs).
Ma, Q., Fode, C., Guillemot, F. & Anderson, D.J. Neurogenin1 and neurogenin2 control two distinct waves of neurogenesis in developing dorsal root ganglia.
