Sentences with phrase «on spatial control»

For example, Dafflon et al. [2017] demonstrated in a polygonal tundra how soil electrical resistivity tomography and vegetation activity cameras can be merged with in situ measurements in a way to corroborate the role of active layer thickness and polygon geometry on spatial control on productivity, and demonstrate how changes in solute concentration and unfrozen water content in winter contributes to acceleration of permafrost thaw.

This special issue addresses modern developments in controlling and manipulating light: how light - based technologies are shrinking and becoming faster (Koenderink et al., p. 516); how recent theoretical developments in the manipulation of light are being implemented to provide materials with properties not available in nature (Pendry et al., p. 521); how the quantum properties of light are being exploited in new technologies (Walmsley, p. 525); and how new light sources are coming online that can probe the structure of matter on spatial and time scales that provide an exquisitely detailed picture of our microscopic world (Miao et al., p. 530).

While most of biology and medicine focus on the key roles genes and chemicals play in the formation and control of living systems, the spatial arrangement of the components that make up those systems and the physical forces they experience are being increasingly recognized as equally important.

She and Northeastern psychologist David DeSteno found that people who were told they had excelled on a spatial rotation task subsequently took more control over a similar, team - based task, regardless of their mood or how competent they reported feeling.

In particular, Brillouin optical correlation - domain reflectometry (BOCDR), which operates based on the correlation control of continuous lightwaves, is known to be an intrinsically one - end - access distributed sensing technique with high spatial resolution (< 1 cm).

Through an analysis of the work of theorists (e.g. Cohn; Groensteen; Hatfield; Miodrag) and practitioner - theorists (e.g. Eisner; McCloud), a model of comics is developed based on seven key characteristics of the form: space as time; simultaneous juxtaposition of images; closure between images; spatial networks; reader control of pacing; tablodic images; word and image blending.

He begins to invest color with spatial properties, so he very much controls the properties of color to advance and recede so that there's a back and forth motion in all of his pictures, but they nevertheless stay very much on the surface, so that the paintings are perceived in a single glance, and he was very conscious that a single impression painting was what he wanted to create which, of course, is what advertising does.

DelSole et al. (28) also found 2.5 cycles by extracting the spatial pattern in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Fourth Assessment Report (IPCC AR4)(29) model control runs that best characterizes internal variability and by projecting the observed global data onto this pattern.

Key challenges, therefore, will be to increasingly: 1) interrogate extreme events in climate simulations; 2) use earth system models to disentangle the complex and multiple controls on proxies; 3) adopt multi-proxy approaches to constrain complex phenomena; and 4) increase the spatial coverage of such records, especially in arid regions, which are currently under - represented.

Children who had witnessed domestic violence had significantly poorer verbal abilities than nonwitnesses after controlling for SES and child abuse, but there were no group differences on visual — spatial abilities.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a paper Educational Interventions for Children Affected by Lead (April 2015) which identifies lead's «Neurobehavioral Signature,» and the negative impact that lead exposure has on children's cognitive abilities, speech and language, hearing, visual - spatial skills, attention, impulse control, social behavior, emotional regulation, and motor Control and Prevention (CDC) released a paper Educational Interventions for Children Affected by Lead (April 2015) which identifies lead's «Neurobehavioral Signature,» and the negative impact that lead exposure has on children's cognitive abilities, speech and language, hearing, visual - spatial skills, attention, impulse control, social behavior, emotional regulation, and motor control, social behavior, emotional regulation, and motor skills.

The table contains significant clusters of voxels (at least 10 significant voxels) within gyral or subcortical white - matter tracts on the Tract - Based Spatial Statistics - derived fractional anisotropy (FA), axial diffusivity (AD), radial diffusivity (RD) and mean diffusivity (MD) skeletons between groups (CD / CU +, CD / CU - and healthy controls).

However, relatively few studies have investigated whether there are differences in brain structure between these subgroups.We acquired diffusion tensor imaging data and used tract - based spatial statistics (TBSS) to compare adolescents with CD and high levels of CU traits (CD / CU +; n = 18, CD and low levels of CU traits (CD / CU -; n = 17) and healthy controls (HC; n = 32) on measures of fractional anisotropy (FA), axial (AD), radial (RD) and mean (MD) diffusivity.
