Sentences with phrase «on radiation response»

Not exact matches

The method focuses the analysis on individual birds instead of species averages, making it a much more sensitive way to analyze biochemical responses to radiation.

Such electrons in Earth's outer radiation belt can exhibit pronounced increases in intensity, in response to activity on the sun, and changes in the solar wind — but the dominant physical mechanisms responsible for such radiation belt electron acceleration has remained unresolved for decades.

This EU - funded programme links groups working on the response of stem cells to low doses of ionising radiation, such as found in medical imaging or nuclear accidents.

Therapeutic decision - making is based on the type of tumor rather than its response to a trial of radiation.

At the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2017 Annual Meeting, we presented monotherapy data of nine patients who received G100 with radiation (no pembrolizumab) that showed 100 % DCR rate, with 44 % of the patients achieved a partial response (PR) based on WHO criteria, which requires at least a 50 % tumor reduction to qualify as a PR.

Alcohol can have a strong impact on the production of oxidative stress, because it is not metabolized in the liver — leading to alcoholic liver disease.6, 7 The development of oxidative stress is also related to smoking, which suppresses the immune response and damages lung function.8 What may seem like a surprising factor is the use of pharmaceutical drugs and radiation.

Inflammation is usually characterized by redness on the affected area, and can be triggered by many things, including overexertion, immune response to pathogens, injuries, and the effects of chemicals or radiation.

Reliable data on decadal variability of the Earth's radiation budget are hard to come by, but to provide some reality check I based my setting of the scaling factor between radiative forcing and the SOI / PDOI index on the tropical data of Wielecki et al 2002 (as corrected in response to Trenberth's criticism here.)

[Response: These feedbacks are indeed modelled because they depend not on the trace greenhouse gas amounts, but on the variation of seasonal incoming solar radiation and effects like snow cover, water vapour amounts, clouds and the diurnal cycle.

-- Upper - tropospheric moistening in response to anthropogenic warming — Increases in greenhouse forcing inferred from the outgoing longwave radiation spectra of the Earth in 1970 and 1997 — On the Atmospheric Residence Time of Anthropogenically Sourced Carbon Dioxide — Deep Carbon Emissions from Volcanoes «it is clear that these natural emissions were recently dwarfed by anthropogenic emissions»

CO2's effect on surface temperature is negligent where there is water free to evaporate in response to the increased downwelling mid-infrared radiation.

Section 1 contains five subsections with results on 27 - day response of low - latitude ionosphere to solar extreme - ultraviolet (EUV) radiation, response to the recurrent geomagnetic storms, long - term trends in the upper atmosphere, latitudinal dependence of total electron content on EUV changes, and statistical analysis of ionospheric behavior during prolonged period of solar activity.

While actual scientists are trying to piece together every little part of an otherwise almost un-piecable long term chaotic and variable system in response now to a massive increase in net lower atmospheric energy absorption and re radiation, Curry is busy — much like most of the comments on this site most of the time — trying to come up with or re-post every possible argument under the sun to all but argue against the basic concept that radically altering the atmosphere on a multi million year basis is going to affect the net energy balance of earth, which over time is going to translate into a very different climate (and ocean level) than the one we've comfortably come to rely on.

Thus the spectral composition of solar radiation is crucial in determining atmospheric structure, as well as surface temperature, and it follows that the response of the atmosphere to variations in solar irradiance depends on the spectrum2.

Papers on atmospheric radiation and atmospheric CO2 appeared in 1949; articles on glacial response to temperature variations, and temperature trends in both England and Canada appeared in the early 50s.
