A Comprehensive Study of Vesicular and Non-Vesicular miRNAs from a Volume of Cerebrospinal Fluid Compatible with Clinical Practice
(Ivyspring International Publisher, 2019)
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as potential biomarkers for minimally invasive diagnosis of central nervous system malignancies. However, despite significant advances in recent years, this field ...
Combining random forests and physics-based models to forecast the electricity generated by ocean waves: A case study of the Mutriku wave farm
(Pergamon-Elsevier, 2019-10-01)
This paper combines random forests with physics-based models to forecast the electricity output of the Mutriku wave farm on the Bay of Biscay. The period analysed was 2014-2016, and the forecast horizon was 24 h in 4-h ...
Global estimations of wind energy potential considering seasonal air density changes
(Pergamon-Elsevier, 2019-11-15)
The literature typically considers constant annual average air density when computing the wind energy potential of a given location. In this work, the recent reanalysis ERA5 is used to obtain global seasonal estimates of ...
Cohomology of p-groups of nilpotency class smaller than p
(De Gruyter, 2018-01-17)
Let p be a prime number, let d be an integer and let G be a d-generated finite p-group of nilpotency class smaller than p. Then the number of possible isomorphism types for the mod p cohomology algebra H^∗(G;F_p) is bounded ...
Genetic turnovers and northern survival during the last glacial maximum in European brown bears
(John Wiley & Sons, 2019-05-29)
The current phylogeographic pattern of European brown bears (Ursus arctos) has
commonly been explained by postglacial recolonization out of geographically distinct
refugia in southern Europe, a pattern well in accordance ...
Middle Pleistocene protein sequences from the rhinoceros genus Stephanorhinus and the phylogeny of extant and extinct Middle/Late Pleistocene Rhinocerotidae
(PeerJ Inc., 2017-03-14)
Ancient protein sequences are increasingly used to elucidate the
phylogenetic relationships between extinct and extant mammalian taxa. Here, we
apply these recent developments to Middle Pleistocene bone specimens of ...
Shell midden people in northern Iberia. New data from the mesolithic rock shelter of J3 (Basque Country, Spain)
(Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca, 2010)
[EN]In the course of a sondage dug in the rock shelter of J3, in the Jaizkibel mountains (at the north-western tip of Guipúzcoa), the body of a adult man was located buried inside a shell midden. This shell midden had not ...
The southwesternmost record of Sicista (Mammalia; Dipodidae) in Eurasia, with a review of the palaeogeography and palaeoecology of the genus in Europe
(Elsevier, 2012-07-27)
We describe the southwesternmost specimen of Sicista betulina (Mammalia; Dipodidae) and of the genus Sicista found to date in Eurasia, which comes from the early Late Pleistocene (MIS 5) site of Lezetxiki II (Arrasate, ...
Infrared emissivity of copper-alloyed spinel black coatings for concentrated solar power systems
(Elsevier, 2019-05-24)
The directional spectral emissivities of four new copper-alloyed spinel coatings for concentrated solar power applications were measured up to 800 °C and compared Pyromark 2500®, deposited in the same conditions on Inconel ...
Political Determinants of Privatisation Reforms: A Comparative Analysis in Europe
(Sage, 2019-08-18)
This paper analyses the effect of political factors on privatisation reforms and considers the practical implications of such policy from a comparative point of view in Europe. According to a sample of 25 countries in ...
