Coastal Lithofacies and Biofacies Associated with Syndepositional Dolomitization and Silicification (Draken Formation, Upper Riphean, Svalbard)
(Elsevier, 1991)The Draken Formation (120-250 m) of northeast Spitsbergen (Svalbard) forms part of a thick Upper Proterozoic carbonate platform succession. It consists predominantly of intraformational dolomitic conglomerates, with excellent ... -
Coastal paleogeography of the California–Oregon–Washington and Bering Sea continental shelves during the latest Pleistocene and Holocene: implications for the archaeological record
(Elsevier, 2014)Sea-level rise during the last deglaciation and through the Holocene was influenced by deformational, gravitational, and rotational effects (henceforth glacial isostatic adjustment, GIA) that led to regional departures ... -
Coat Color Variation in Rock Pocket Mice (Chaetodipus intermedins): from Genotype to Phenotype
(University of California Press, 2005) -
Coated and uncoated cellophane as materials for microplates and open-channel microfluidics devices
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2016)This communication describes the use of uncoated cellophane (regenerated cellulose films) for the fabrication of microplates, and the use of coated cellophane for the fabrication of open-channel microfluidic devices. The ... -
Coaxial atomic force microscope probes for imaging with dielectrophoresis
(AIP Publishing, 2011)We demonstrate atomic force microscope(AFM) imaging using dielectrophoresis(DEP) with coaxial probes. DEP provides force contrast allowing coaxial probes to image with enhanced spatial resolution. We model a coaxial probe ... -
Coaxial Atomic Force Microscope Tweezers
(American Institute of Physics, 2010)We demonstrate coaxial atomic force microscope (AFM) tweezers that can trap and place small objects using dielectrophoresis (DEP). An attractive force is generated at the tip of a coaxial AFM probe by applying a radio ... -
Coaxial multishell nanowires with high-quality electronic interfaces and tunable optical cavities for ultrathin photovoltaics
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012)Silicon nanowires (NWs) could enable low-cost and efficient photovoltaics, though their performance has been limited by nonideal electrical characteristics and an inability to tune absorption properties. We overcome these ... -
Cocaine Enhances DC to T-cell HIV-1 Transmission by Activating DC-SIGN/LARG/LSP1 Complex and Facilitating Infectious Synapse Formation
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)DC-SIGN is a dendritic cell surface structure which participates in binding and transmission of HIV-1. Here, for the first time we demonstrate that cocaine induces over expression of DC-SIGN and significantly enhances virus ... -
CodeBlue: An Ad Hoc Sensor Network Infrastructure for Emergency Medical Care
(2004)Sensor devices integrating embedded processors, low-power, low-bandwidth radios, and a modest amount of storage have the potential to enhance emergency medical care. Wearable vital sign sensors can track patient status and ... -
Codes for Deletion and Insertion Channels with Segmented Errors
(2006)We consider deletion channels and insertion channels under an additional segmentation assumption: the input consists of disjoint segments of b consecutive bits, with at most one error per segment. Under this assumption, ... -
Coding and Transformations in the Olfactory System
(Annual Reviews, 2014)How is sensory information represented in the brain? A long-standing debate in neural coding is whether and how timing of spikes conveys information to downstream neurons. Although we know that neurons in the olfactory ... -
Coding Approaches for End-to-End 3D TV Systems
(Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, 2004)We present a 3D TV prototype system with real-time acquisition, transmission and auto-stereoscopic display of dynamic scenes. Our system uses a distributed, scalable architecture to manage the high computation and bandwidth ... -
The coevolution of life and environments
(Springer Science + Business Media, 2009) -
Coexistence of Gapless Excitations and Commensurate Charge-Density Wave in the 2H Transition Metal Dichalcogenides
(American Physical Society (APS), 2006)An unexpected feature common to 2H transition metal dichalcogenides (2H TMDs) is revealed with a first-principles Wannier function analysis of the electronic structure of the prototype 2H TaSe2: The lowenergy Ta ‘‘5dz2 ’’ ... -
Coexistence of the Meissner and Vortex States on a Nanoscale Superconducting Spherical Shell
(American Physical Society, 2009)We show that on superconducting spherical nanoshells, the coexistence of the Meissner state with a variety of vortex patterns drives the phase transition to higher magnetic fields. The spherical geometry leads to a ... -
Coexisting conical bipolar and equatorial outflows from a high-mass protostar
(Springer Nature, 1998)The BN/KL region in the Orion molecular cloud1 is an archetype in the study of the formation of stars much more massive than the Sun2. This region contains luminous young stars and protostars, but it is difficult to study ... -
Cofabrication: A Strategy for Building Multicomponent Microsystems
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2010)This Account describes a strategy for fabricating multicomponent microsystems in which the structures of essentially all of the components are formed in a single step of micromolding. This strategy, which we call ... -
Cofactor bypass variants reveal a conformational control mechanism governing cell wall polymerase activity
(National Academy of Sciences, 2016)To fortify their cytoplasmic membrane and protect it from osmotic rupture, most bacteria surround themselves with a peptidoglycan (PG) exoskeleton synthesized by the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). As their name implies, ... -
Cognition is Recognition: Literary Knowledge and Textual “Face”
(Johns Hopkins University Press, 2013)Our language for the truths of literature is reformist and nominalist; our experience of reading is, by contrast, habitual and idealist. Contrary to the way we talk about what kind of new, liberatory truths literature ... -
Cognitive and linguistic factors affecting subject/object asymmetry: An eye-tracking study of prenominal relative clauses in Korean
(Muse - Johns Hopkins University Press, 2010)Object relatives (ORs) have been reported to cause heavier processing loads than subject relatives (SRs) in both pre- and postnominal position (prenominal relatives: Miyamoto & Nakamura 2003, Kwon 2008, Ueno & Garnsey 2008; ...
