Forgiver Triumphs in Alternating Prisoner's Dilemma
(Public Library of Science, 2013)Cooperative behavior, where one individual incurs a cost to help another, is a wide spread phenomenon. Here we study direct reciprocity in the context of the alternating Prisoner's Dilemma. We consider all strategies that ... -
Form and function of the human and chimpanzee forefoot: implications for early hominin bipedalism
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016)During bipedal walking, modern humans dorsiflex their forefoot at the metatarsophalangeal joints (MTPJs) prior to push off, which tightens the plantar soft tissues to convert the foot into a stiff propulsive lever. Particular ... -
Form and Transformation in Modern Chinese Poetry and Poetics
(2013-10-18)Hu Shi began the modern Chinese New Poetry movement by calling for the liberation of poetic forms, but what constitutes "form" and how best to approach its liberation have remained difficult issues, as the apparent material, ... -
Form Der Inspiration Klopstocks Antikerezeption
(2020)Literaturgeschichtlich ist es unbestritten, dass Klopstocks Werk von der klassizistischen Regelpoetik entschieden abweicht. Hatte der Rationalismus noch durch präzise Vorschriften und Kriterien die Kultivierung des guten ... -
Form's Function
(2015)In this essay, I consider the intersection of literary studies and design thinking through an engagement with Caroline Levine's book, Forms: Whole, Rhythm, Hierarchy, Network (Princeton, 2015). -
Formal Analyticity
(2017-05-12)This dissertation consists of three papers that together serve to defend a notion of analyticity for formal languages: A sentence (or rule of inference) of a formal language is formally analytic if understanding the sentence ... -
Formal and Real Authority in Organizations
(University of Chicago Press, 1997)This paper develops a theory of the allocation of formal authority (the right to decide) and real authority (the effective control over decisions) within organizations, and it illustrates how a formally integrated structure ... -
Formal constraints on metarules
(Association for Computational Linguistics, 1983)Metagrammatical formalisms that combine context-free phrase structure rules and metarules (MPS grammars) allow concise statement of generalizations about the syntax of natural languages. Unconstrained MPS grammars, ... -
Formal Semantics and the Grammar of Predication

Formaldehyde (HCHO) As a Hazardous Air Pollutant: Mapping Surface Air Concentrations from Satellite and Inferring Cancer Risks in the United States
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2017-05-05)Formaldehyde (HCHO) is the most important carcinogen in outdoor air among the 187 hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) identified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), not including ozone and particulate matter. ... -
Formaldehyde (HCHO) Budget in a Pristine Forest in Northern Michigan
(2022-01-14)Broadly speaking, the oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the atmosphere aids in the formation of (1) ozone and (2) secondary organic aerosol. Both of these products have air quality as well as health and ... -
Formaldehyde columns from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument: Urban versus background levels and evaluation using aircraft data and a global model
(American Geophysical Union, 2011)We combine aircraft measurements (Second Texas Air Quality Study, Megacity Initiative: Local and Global Research Observations, Intercontinental Chemical Transport Experiment: Phase B) over the United States, Mexico, and ... -
Formaldehyde Distribution over North America: Implications for Satellite Retrievals of Formaldehyde Columns and Isoprene Emission
(American Geophysical Union, 2006)Formaldehyde (HCHO) columns measured from space provide constraints on emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Quantitative interpretation requires characterization of errors in HCHO column retrievals and relating ... -
Formaldehyde, glyoxal, and methylglyoxal in air and cloudwater at a rural mountain site in central Virginia
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1995)As part of the Shenandoah Cloud and Photochemistry Experiment (SCAPE), we measured formaldehyde (HCHO), glyoxal (CHOCHO), and methylglyoxal (CH3C(O)CHO) concentrations in air and cloudwater at Pinnacles (elevation 1037 m) ... -

Formalism and the Appearance of Nature
(Routledge, 2018-01-29)The various relations between formalism and the anti-theatrical begin to emerge from these passages. The critique of the "theatrical" artist takes a number of different forms: moral, psychological, political, and aesthetic. ... -
Formation and Destruction of Pastoral and Irrigation Landscapes on the Mughan Steppe, North-Western Iran
(Antiquity Publications, 2007)CORONA satellite photography taken in the 1960s continues to reveal buried ancient landscapes and sequences of landscapes – some of them no longer visible. In this new survey of the Mughan Steppe in north-western Iran, the ... -
Formation and Destruction of Silicon Monoxide in SN 1987A
(American Astronomical Society, 1996)We present a new chemistry model for the silicon monoxide molecules in SN 1987A. It incorporates an enhanced rate of formation by radiative association and an enhanced rate of destruction through charge transfer between ... -
Formation and dynamics of van der Waals molecules in buffer-gas traps
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2011)We show that weakly bound He-containing van der Waals molecules can be produced and magnetically trapped in buffer-gas cooling experiments, and provide a general model for the formation and dynamics of these molecules. Our ... -
