Integrated Summer Insolation Forcing and 40,000-Year Glacial Cycles: The Perspective from an Ice-Sheet/Energy-Balance Model
(American Geophysical Union, 2008)Although the origins of the 40,000-year glacial cycles during the early Pleistocene are readily attributed to changes in Earth's obliquity (also having a 40,000-year period), the lack of ice-volume variability at precession ... -
Integrated Tree-Ring-Radiocarbon High-Resolution Timeframe to Resolve Earlier Second Millennium BCE Mesopotamian Chronology
(Public Library of Science, 2016)500 years of ancient Near Eastern history from the earlier second millennium BCE, including such pivotal figures as Hammurabi of Babylon, Šamši-Adad I (who conquered Aššur) and Zimrilim of Mari, has long floated in calendar ... -
Integrated X-Ray-Scattering Intensity Measurement of the Order Parameter at the Nematic-to-Smectic-A Phase Transition
(American Physical Society, 1985)The temperature dependence of the square of the smectic order parameter, \(\mid \psi \mid^2\), was determined from the integrated x-ray scattering intensity. The data are described very well by the form \(I(t)/I(0)=1 \mp ... -
Integrated Zero-Index Metamaterials
(2016-09-13)Nanotechnology has enabled the development of nanostructured composite materials (metamaterials) with exotic optical properties not found in nature. In the most extreme case, we can create materials that support light waves ... -
Integrating Ancient and Modern DNA To Study Human History in South Asia and the Americas
(2020-09-10)In the last two decades, advances in next-generation sequencing, genome-wide genotyping arrays, and methods to obtain DNA from ancient individuals have propelled the field of population genetics such that it is now an ... -
Integrating Electronics and Microfluidics on Paper
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016)The fields of paper microfluidics and printed electronics have developed independently, and are incompatible in many of their aspects (e.g. printed electronic thin films are not designed to tolerate the flows of liquids, ... -
Integrating empirical data and population genetic simulations to study the genetic architecture of type 2 diabetes
(2013-10-17)Most common diseases have substantial heritable components but are characterized by complex inheritance patterns implicating numerous genetic and environmental factors. A longstanding goal of human genetics research is ... -
Integrating functional genomics and biochemistry to interrogate DNMT3A sequence–function
(2023-05-12)Chromatin-based regulatory processes are indispensable for proper gene expression throughout development. Modifications of DNA and histones interact with a host of chromatin regulatory factors to carry out gene expression ... -
Integrating Human- and Computer-Based Approaches to Feature Extraction and Analysis
(SPIE, 2012)A major goal of imaging systems is to help doctors, scientists, engineers, and analysts identify patterns and features in complex data. There is a wide range of imaging, visualization, and graphics systems, ranging from ... -
Integrating large-scale genomics data to improve variant interpretation in coding and non-coding regions
(2021-05-06)Large-scale human population genomic studies have significantly accelerated our understanding of genetic contributions of rare and common diseases; approaches include genome wide association studies (GWAS) utilizing single ... -
Integrating Machine Learning and Optimization with Applications in Public Health and Sustainability
(2023-05-15)The field of artificial intelligence (AI) has garnered increasing attention in the realms of public health and conservation due to its potential to characterize complex dynamics and facilitate difficult decision-making. ... -
Integrating Messaging Middleware and Information Flow Control
(2015)Security is an ongoing challenge in cloud computing. Currently, cloud consumers have few mechanisms for managing their data within the cloud provider’s infrastructure. Information Flow Control (IFC) involves attaching ... -
Integrating multi-scale data on homologous recombination into a new recognition mechanism based on simulations of the RecA-ssDNA/dsDNA structure
(Oxford University Press, 2015)RecA protein is the prototypical recombinase. Members of the recombinase family can accurately repair double strand breaks in DNA. They also provide crucial links between pairs of sister chromatids in eukaryotic meiosis. ... -

Integrating Regulatory Information in Eukaryotic Transcription
(2018-08-17)Transcriptional regulation is a key determinant of cell differentiation during development. Changes in where and when a gene is expressed can lead to phenotypic variation among individuals, and ultimately to phenotypic ... -
Integrating taphonomy into the practice of zooarchaeology in China
(Elsevier BV, 2010)With the study of faunal remains (zooarchaeology) emerging as an increasingly prominent component of archaeological studies in China, the importance of studying processes of assemblage formation and preservation (taphonomy) ... -
Integration of bottom-up and top-down methods to evaluate national methane emission inventories
(2021-05-06)Individual countries estimate emissions of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, in national inventories. These inventories are used to report emissions to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) ... -
Integration of common and rare genetic variation across complex traits and neuropsychiatric disorders
(2022-09-08)Research into the genetic basis of human disease has progressed rapidly over the past 20 years. Genome-wide association studies have identified thousands of links between common variants and phenotypic outcomes. More ... -
Integration of multimodal single-cell data to characterize T cell phenotypes, gene regulation, and disease associations
(2022-07-28)T cells are heterogeneous immune cells with a spectrum of functional phenotypes—cell states—critical to processes ranging from infection to autoimmunity. Traditionally, T cells have been partitioned into mutually exclusive ... -
