BIASES IN REGIONAL CARBON BUDGETS FROM COVARIATION OF SURFACE FLUXES AND WEATHER IN TRANSPORT MODEL INVERSIONS

Biases in regional carbon budgets from covariation of surface fluxes and weather in transport model inversions

Recent advances in atmospheric transport model inversions could significantly reduce uncertainties in land carbon uptake through the assimilation of CO2 concentration Girls Christmas Set measurements at weekly and shorter timescales.The potential of these measurements for reducing biases in estimated land carbon sinks depends on the strength of cov

Differential phylogenetic expansions in BAHD acyltransferases across five angiosperm taxa and evidence of divergent expression among Populus paralogues

Abstract Background BAHD acyltransferases are involved in the synthesis and elaboration of a wide variety of secondary metabolites.Previous research has shown that characterized proteins from this family fall broadly into five major clades and contain two conserved protein motifs.Here, we aimed to expand the understanding of BAHD acyltransferase di

P3-7: On Prototyping a Visual Prosthesis System with Artificial Retina and Optic Nerve Based on Arrayed Microfibers

The traditional visual prosthesis system combines both a camera and a microelectrode array Makeup Sponge implanted on the visual neural network including retina, optic nerve, and visual cortex.Here, we introduce a new visual prosthesis system in which an artificial retina and optic nerve are demonstrated.The prototype of optic nerve for image trans

Interview with an avatar: Comparing online and virtual reality perspective taking for gender bias in STEM hiring decisions

Virtual perspective taking can reduce unconscious bias and increase empathy and prosocial behavior toward individuals who are marginalized based on group stereotypes such as age, race, or socioeconomic status.However, the question remains whether this approach might reduce implicit gender bias, and the degree to which virtual immersion contributes
