Using a corpus approach, this article investigates the translation styles of the first chapter of Fu Sheng Liu Ji at three levels: the statistical parameters, the translation of culture-specific lexis, and readability...
Selective opposition-like control of large-scale structures in wall-bounded turbulence
Abstract We investigate the effect of controlling large-scale, logarithmic-layer turbulent structures, which have a characteristic size and aspect ratio that scale with the...

Younger supervisors, older subordinates
F Kunze, JI Menges
Aug 15, 2017
Younger employees are often promoted into supervisory positions in which they then manage older subordinates. Do companies benefit or suffer when supervisors and subordinates have inverse age differences? In this study, we...

Pivotal Roles for pH, Lactate, and Lactate-Utilizing Bacteria in the Stability of a Human Colonic Microbial Ecosystem.
Lactate can be produced by many gut bacteria, but in adults its accumulation in the colon is often an indicator of microbiota perturbation. Using continuous culture anaerobic fermentor systems, we found that lactate...
