Not exact matches

Using functional magnetic resonance imaging to measure changes in blood flow, she found that as people received more information, their brain activity increased in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, a region behind the forehead that is responsible for making decisions and controlling emotions.

More praise for the yummy stuff resulted from brain researcher Todd Parrish of Northwestern University in 2009, when he examined functional magnetic resonance images of gum chewers and found increased activity in areas of the brain associated with memory and emotional responses.

A set of functional magnetic resonance imaging recordings of the temporal lobes during both tasks backed up the researchers» hypothesis: brain activity was similar each time a volunteer consciously looked at the same face or house, but invisible stimuli evoked a more variable response (Science, DOI: 10.1126 / science.1180029).

The sun's magnetic activity waxes and wanes roughly every 11 years, generating more dark sunspots at the peak of the cycle and fewer at the trough.

Individuals whose brains exhibit the at - risk signatures may be more likely to benefit from strategies that boost the brain's dorsolateral prefrontal activity, including cognitive behavioral therapy, working memory training, or transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

Using a combination of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, researchers discovered that individuals who showed more brain activity per unit of dopamine showed better facial recognition.

About once every 11 years, the sun goes ballistic, throwing out more bursts of magnetic activity than normal.

Researchers at the Lifelong Brain and Cognition Lab at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology at the University of Illinois have utilized the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) facilities available in Beckman's Biomedical Imaging Center to measure the moment - to - moment variability in brain activity, more specifically in the blood oxygenation level - dependent (BOLD) signal.

The big problem is to explain a lag of more than 30 years when direct measurements of quantities (galactic cosmic rays, 10.7 cm solar radio, magnetic index, level of sunspot numbers, solar cycle lengths) do not indicate any trend in the solar activity since the 1950s.

The sun's behavior, its activity and its magnetic rotation are always changing, which makes the instruments invented at NSO and the data painstakingly compiled over decades a valuable resource and a check on future, more advanced instruments.

So more solar activity means a stronger solar magnetic field, which means fewer GCRs reaching Earth, which hypothetically means fewer clouds and more warming.

Surprisingly, based on discoveries since 2001, it now appears that radio - emitting magnetic activity may actually become more common in these very low - mass objects.

Possible activities on Magnetic Island range from active pursuits such as hiking, fishing, diving, and snorkeling, to more leisurely choices of lounging on perfect beaches, swimming in crystal clear waters, and the monthly all night «Full Moon» party hosted by top DJ's.

Note that in the last piece, Tamino points out the coincidence of two very large volcanic eruptions early in the «dalton minimum,» which as many have noted, may account for the oddities of the weather more than the solar magnetic activity.

Muon densities increase more in higher latitudes at times of weak solar magnetic activity, which is why volcanic activity in the higher latitudes will be affected more by this process.

Weaker magnetic activity on the Sun means less ozone which means a weaker jet stream which means it meanders more, bringing cold air south in some places.

High solar activity means a stronger heliospheric magnetic field and thus a more efficient screen against GCR, then under the hypothesis underlined above, the reduced GCR flux would promote less clouds amplifying the warming effect expected from high solar activity.

The strength of the magnetosphere is regulated by the sun (whose activity changes in synchrony with the planets), but perhaps the strength of the Earth's magnetosphere is also regulated directly by the gravitational / magnetic forces of Jupiter and Saturn and the other planets whose gravitational / magnetic tides may stretch or compress the Earth's magnetosphere in some way making it easier or more difficult for the Earth's magnetosphere to deviate the cosmic ray.

In the almost sure knowledge that the earth never experienced a runaway greenhouse even with ancient CO2 levels 10 to 20 times greater than today, these anti-science scoundrels insist with a «high level of confidence» that this amplification is real and it's based on nothing more than faster than expected surface temperature rise in the past few decades which can be TOTALLY explained by multi-decadal cyclic behavior in ocean currents, trade winds, and / or solar magnetic activity causing small global average albedo changes.
