A new method for locating Roman transport infrastructure
(Elsevier Masson SAS, 2020-05)
Roman cities and roads, once correctly identified, can be appropriately conserved. Moreover, the correct identification of Roman transport routes will vindicate the accuracy of recent studies on the network of Roman transport ...
Basque ethnic identity and collective empowerment: Two key factors in well-being and community participation
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
Social identity is a factor that is associated with well-being and community participation. Some studies have shown that ethnic identity goes along with empowerment, and that interaction between the two leads to greater ...
Association between prenatal exposure to air pollutants and newborn thyroxine (T4) levels
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
Background: Thyroid hormones play a key role in fetal and child development. Recent studies have linked prenatal exposure to atmospheric contaminants with changes in thyroid hormone levels in newborns, but the data from ...
A skid resistance prediction model for an entire road network
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020-11-30)
[EN]This article predicts the available minimum skid resistance in the road network of Biscay (Spain) with data collected in the summer season when friction values are at a minimum. Firstly, it was observed that pavement ...
Fermion-like behavior of elements/agents in their spatial distribution around points of interest
(Elsevier, 2020-07-06)
In this paper we analyze the spatial distribution of elements around points of interest. Based on a spatial exclusion principle we model the system by means of a Fermi–Dirac distribution defined by two easily interpretable ...
Caenorhabditis elegans as a Model System To Assess Candida glabrata, Candida nivariensis, and Candida bracarensis Virulence and Antifungal Efficacy
(American Society for Microbiology (ASM), 2020-09-21)
Although Candida albicans remains the major etiological agent of invasive
candidiasis, Candida glabrata and other emerging species of Candida are
increasingly isolated. This species is the second most prevalent cause of ...
Climate reverses directionality in the richness–abundance relationship across the World’s main forest biomes
(Nature, 2020-11-06)
More tree species can increase the carbon storage capacity of forests (here referred to as the more species hypothesis) through increased tree productivity and tree abundance resulting from complementarity, but they can ...
A long term study of Mars mesospheric clouds seen at twilight based on Mars Express VMC images
(Wiley, 2021)
We present the first systematic study of clouds observed during twilight on Mars. We analyze images obtained by the Visual Monitoring Camera (VMC) on Mars Express between 2007 and 2020. Using an automated retrieval algorithm ...
A cross-linguistic study of emphatic negative coordination
(John Benjamins, 2021-12-09)
The purpose of this paper is to provide a detailed cross-linguistic analysis of so-called emphatic negative coordination (enc). This kind of clause linkage is illustrated by neither and nor in She neither could nor would ...
Influence of the Geometrical Design on Ball and Crossed Roller Wire Race Bearing Behavior under Axial Load
(Elsevier, 2020-12-05)
Wire bearings are becoming popular these days in applications such as defence, robotics, medical devices or shipping industry. They provide weight and inertia reductions, good shock load and vibration absorbing capacity, ...
