Circadian Control of Global Isoprene Emissions
(Nature Publishing Group, 2012)Circadian rhythms govern many aspects of our lives, and it is thought that earth-atmosphere interactions are similarly affected. In this correspondence, we show that reported circadian rhythms can be explained by a variety ... -
Circling the Spheres: A Dialogue
(Duke University Press, 1998)Presents a dialogue focusing on the notion of separate spheres in American literary history. Identification of women writers in the antebellum period; Examination of literary ethnography traditions; View on the development ... -
Circuit Lower Bounds for Low-Energy States of Quantum Code Hamiltonians
(2021-09-10)The No Low-energy Trivial States (NLTS) conjecture of Freedman and Hastings, 2014 -- which posits the existence of a local Hamiltonian with a super-constant quantum circuit lower bound on the complexity of all low-energy ... -
Circuit-to-Hamiltonian from tensor networks and fault tolerance
(2023-09-28)We define a map from an arbitrary quantum circuit to a local Hamiltonian whose ground state encodes the quantum computation. All previous maps relied on the Feynman-Kitaev construction, which introduces an ancillary `clock ... -
The Circular Polarization of Saggitarius A* at Submillimeter Wavelengths
(American Astronomical Society, 2012)We report the first detections of circularly polarized emission at submillimeter wavelengths from the compact radio source and supermassive black hole candidate Sgr A* at a level of 1.2\pm0.3% at 1.3 mm wavelength (230 ... -
The circular polarization of Sagittarius A* at submillimeter wavelengths
(IOP Publishing, 2012)We report the first detections of circularly polarized emission at submillimeter wavelengths from the compact radio source and supermassive black hole candidate Sgr A* at a level of 1.2% ± 0.3% at 1.3 mm wavelength (230 ... -
Circularly permuted and PAM-modified Cas9 variants broaden the targeting scope of base editors
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-05-20)Base editing requires that the target sequence satisfy the protospacer adjacent motif requirement of the Cas9 domain and that the target nucleotide be located within the editing window of the base editor. To increase the ... -
Circulating C3 is Necessary and Sufficient for Induction of Autoantibody-Mediated Arthritis in a Mouse Model
(John Wiley & Sons, 2007)Objective. For the inflammation characteristic of rheumatoid arthritis, the relative contribution of mediators produced locally in the synovium versus those circulating systemically is unknown. Complement factor C3 is made ... -
Circulation in the Eastern Levantine Basin Determined by Inverse Methods
(American Meteorological Society, 1988)A finite difference linear inverse model is applied to hydrographic data from six summer and fall cruises in a small area (250 × 200 km) of the eastern Mediterranean sea. The temperature and salinity equations are used to ... -
Cis-regulatory sequence variation and association with Mycoplasma load in natural populations of the house finch (Carpodacus mexicanus)
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2013)Characterization of the genetic basis of fitness traits in natural populations is important for understanding how organisms adapt to the changing environment and to novel events, such as epizootics. However, candidate ... -
Cited2 Regulates Neocortical Layer II/III Generation and Somatosensory Callosal Projection Neuron Development and Connectivity
(Society for Neuroscience, 2016)The neocortex contains hundreds to thousands of distinct subtypes of precisely connected neurons, allowing it to perform remarkably complex tasks of high-level cognition. Callosal projection neurons (CPN) connect the ... -
Citizen Contention and Campus Calm: The Paradox of Chinese Civil Society
(Events Pub. Co, 2014)Contrary to conventional predictions, the growth of protest and civil society in contemporary China seems more conducive to the resilience of authoritarianism than to imminent democratization. -
Citizen Science as a New Tool in Dog Cognition Research
(Public Library of Science, 2015)Family dogs and dog owners offer a potentially powerful way to conduct citizen science to answer questions about animal behavior that are difficult to answer with more conventional approaches. Here we evaluate the quality ... -
Citizenship; Freedom; Status
(University of Chicago Press, 1991) -
CitySense: A Vision for an Urban-Scale Wireless Networking Testbed
(2007)In this paper, we present the vision for an open, urban-scale wireless networking testbed, called CitySense, with the goal of supporting the development and evaluation of novel wireless systems that span an entire city. ... -
Civic Knighthood in the Early Renaissance: Leonardo Bruni's De militia (ca. 1420)
(2011-12-20)Leonardo Bruni's aim in the De militia (ca. 1420) was to co-opt the most glamorous of medieval ideals, the ideal of chivalry, and to reinterpret it in terms of Greco-Roman ideals of military service. In so doing he aimed ... -
Civil Rights in International Law: Compliance with Aspects of the "International Bill of Rights"
(Indiana University Press, 2009)International law has developed what many might consider a constitutional understanding of individual civil rights that individuals can claim vis-a-vis their own governments. This paper discusses the development of aspects ... -
Civil Rights Law at Work: Sex Discrimination and the Rise of Maternity Leave Policies
(University of Chicago Press, 1999)By the time Congress passed the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, many employers had created maternity leave programs. Analysts argue that they did so in response to the feminization of the workforce. This study charts ...
