Ethical principles and a practical approach to support policy making through the next phases of the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.
There is an urgent need for an ethical framework to help us address the local and national challenges that we face as clinicians during the COVID-19 pandemic. We propose four key commitments from which a practical and consistent...

Does the Madden-Julian Oscillation modulate stratospheric gravity waves?
The circulation of the stratosphere is strongly influenced by the fluxes of gravity waves propagating from tropospheric sources. In the tropics, these gravity waves are primarily generated by convection. The Madden-Julian...

Restoration and Loss after Disaster

The article asks whether disasters that destroy life but leave the material infrastructure relatively intact tend to prompt communal coping focusing on loss, while disasters that destroy significant material infrastructure...

Isolating residents including wandering residents in care and group homes
This article investigates the lawfulness of isolating residents of care and group homes during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many residents are mobile, and their freedom to move is a central ethical tenet and human right. It is not...

The circadian fluctuation of melatonin in <em>Stenostomum virginianum<em>
Much is known about melatonin and its role in the circadian regulation of vertebrate organisms. However, melatonin has not been studied extensively in more primitive bilaterians. The aim of this study was to analyze the...

Stokes drift through corals
JJ Webber, HE Huppert
Oct 01, 2021
We investigate the all-penetrating drift velocities, due to surface wave motion in an effectively inviscid fluid that overlies a saturated porous bed of finite depth. Previous work in this area either neglects the large-scale...

A Computational Comparison of Three Nature-Inspired, Population-Based Metaheuristic Algorithms for Modelling-to-Generate Alternatives
Julian Yeomans
Jan 01, 2023
In “real life” decision-making situations, inevitably, there are numerous unmodelled components, not incorporated into the underlying mathematical programming models, that hold substantial influence on the overall acceptability...
Reversible optical tuning of GeSbTe phase-change metasurface spectral filters for mid-wave infrared imaging.
Tunable narrowband spectral filtering across arbitrary optical wavebands is highly desirable in a plethora of applications, from chemical sensing and hyperspectral imaging to infrared astronomy. Yet, the ability to reconfigure...

Shallow free-surface Stokes flow around a corner.
The steady lateral spreading of a free-surface viscous flow down an inclined plane around a vertex from which the channel width increases linearly with downstream distance is investigated analytically, numerically and...

Symmetric coalescence of two hydraulic fractures.
The formation of a fracture network is a key process for many geophysical and industrial practices from energy resource recovery to induced seismic management. We focus on the initial stage of a fracture network formation using...

The relaxation time for viscous and porous gravity currents following a change in flux
The equilibration time in response to a change in flux from Q to $\Lambda$Q after an injection period applied to either a low-Reynolds-number gravity current or one propagating through a porous medium, in both axisymmetric and...

Well-being is more than happiness and life satisfaction
Abstract: Background: Recent trends on measurement of well-being have elevated the scientific standards and rigor associated with approaches for national and international comparisons of well-being. One major theme in this has...

Nonlinear Representation of Auditory Stimuli Across the Auditory Cortex
Frank Tejera Leon
Jan 01, 0001
The neural evoke activity to pure tones in primary auditory cortex has been systematically studied for many years, as has the spatial organization of these responses. Unlike pure tones, natural sounds possess complex...
