Forest productivity in southwestern Europe is controlled by coupled North Atlantic and Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillations.
(Springer Nature, 2017-12-20)
The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) depicts annual and decadal oscillatory modes of variability responsible for dry spells over the European continent. The NAO therefore holds a great potential to evaluate the role, as ...
Feasibility of the capnogram to monitor ventilation rate during cardiopulmonary resuscitation
(Elsevier, 2017-01)
Aim:The rates of chest compressions (CCs) and ventilations are both important metrics to monitor
the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Capnography permits monitoring
ventilation, but the CCs provided during ...
Comparison of Ni based and Rh based catalysts performance in the oxidative steam reforming of raw bio-oil
(ACS, 2017-06-17)
The effect of O2 content in the oxidative steam reforming (OSR) of raw bio-oil has been studied, and the kinetic behavior, particularly deactivation, has been compared between two catalyst (Ni/La2O3-αAl2O3 and Rh/CeO2-ZrO2). ...
Fast atom transport and launching in a nonrigid trap
(Springer Nature, 2017-07-18)
We study the shuttling of an atom in a trap with controllable position and frequency. Using invariant-based inverse engineering, protocols in which the trap is simultaneously displaced and expanded are proposed to speed ...
Deep-sea benthic response to rapid climatic oscillations of the last glacial cycle in the SE Bay of Biscay
(Elsevier, 2017-06-09)
Paleoclimatic evolution of the last 140 ka (Marine Isotopic Stages MIS 1 to MIS 5) in the South Bay of Biscay has been studied by considering microfossil changes in sediment samples of deep core PP10-17. This core was ...
Effect of a PBL teaching method on learning about nursing care for patients with depression
(Elsevier, 2017-02-21)
El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar el conocimiento declarativo y argumentativo adquirido en relación al tema de los cuidados de enfermería en la depresión en dos grupos de estudiantes de enfermería, comparando los ...
Analysis of the modal choice of transport at the case of university: Case of University of the Basque Country of San Sebastian
(Elsevier, 2017-04-11)
Transportation has significant and long lasting economical, social and environmental impacts, and so is an important dimension of urban sustainability.
Any effort that is made to achieve sustainability must take into ...
Computational Characterization Of The Vortex Generated By A Vortex Generator On A Flat Plate For Different Vane Angles
(Elsevier, 2017-06)
Vortex generators (VGs) are usually employed to improve the aerodynamic performance for both spatial or energy issues; such as aircrafts and wind turbine blades. These structures present poor aerodynamic performance in the ...
Communicative anxiety in the second and third language
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-01-05)
The present paper reports a study on communicative anxiety of two
groups of adult users. The paper aims at exploring the
communicative anxiety of multilingual speakers and at analysing
the communicative anxiety in second ...
Energy consumption for shortcuts to adiabaticity
(APS, 2017-08-25)
Shortcuts to adiabaticity let a system reach the results of a slow adiabatic process in a shorter time. We propose to quantify the “energy cost” of the shortcut by the energy consumption of the system enlarged by including ...
