Consequently, the ability of thymol to decrease the production of SEA and SEB adds impetus to its potential as a novel food preservative.
We hypothesize this change is related to an increase in incipient ice sheet volume leading to passing threshold conditions for the high-altitude pollen appearance and Tarim Sea retreat, finally leading to decreased moisture availability in the Xining Basin.
However, due to decreasing sea surface temperatures, Xina almost immediately began to weaken.
By the afternoon hours of that same day, data from an Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft indicated that Rafael was on the verge of a weakening trend, attributed to decreasing sea surface temperatures and higher wind shear.
