1,1-Diphenyl-4-(thiophen-2-yl)but-3-yn-1-ol
(2018-11)The asymmetric unit of the title homopropargyl alcohol, C20H16OS, contains two independent molecules comprising a hydroxy group, a 3-(2-thiophenyl)- propargylic moiety and two aromatic rings linked to a central carbon atom. ... -
A BDDC algorithm with deluxe scaling for H(curl) in two dimensions with irregular subdomains
(2015)A bound is obtained for the condition number of a BDDC algorithm for problems posed in H(curl) in two dimensions, where the subdomains are only assumed to be uniform in the sense of Peter Jones. For the primal variable ... -
A call-and-response system facilitates group cohesion among disc-winged bats
(2013)Acoustic signals are important in maintaining group cohesion, particularly in highly mobile species. For these signals to facilitate group cohesion, individuals must be able to recognize, and respond to, calls emitted by ... -
A carbonate platform associated with shallow cold methane seeps in Golfo Dulce, Pacific Costa Rica
(2015)Marine methane seeps are typically observed in cold, anoxic and organic-rich deep-sea environments, such as in the Black Sea, where methane emissions fuel the authigenic accretion of calcium carbonate structures via microbial ... -
A Chronoamperometric Screen Printed Carbon Biosensor Based on Alkaline Phosphatase Inhibition for W(VI) Determination in Water, Using 2-Phospho-l-Ascorbic Acid Trisodium Salt as a Substrate
(2015)This paper presents a chronoamperometric method to determine tungsten in water using screen-printed carbon electrodes modified with gold nanoparticles and cross linked alkaline phosphatase immobilized in the working ... -
A climate change projection for summer hydrologic conditions in a semiarid watershed of central Arizona
(2015-03-05)Potential climate change impacts on summer precipitation and subsequent hydrologic responses in the southwestern U.S. are poorly constrained at present due to a lack of studies accounting for high resolution processes. In ... -
A Climate Feature of the Tropical Americas: The Trade Wind Easterly Jet
(1998-06)Utilizando datos medios mensuales globales de los Reanálisis de NCEP/NCARP para el periodo 1982-1994 se documenta una característica de la circulación de las Américas tropicales no reportada hasta el momento en la literatura: ... -
A climatology of low level wind regimes over Central America using a weather type classification approach
(2015-04)Based on the potential of the weather types classification method to study synoptic features, this study proposes the application of such methodology for the identification of the main large scale patterns related with ... -
A Comparison of four Methods to Evaluate the Butterfly Abundance. Using a Tropical Community
(Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 45(3), 1991, 241-243, 1991-03-18)In recent years. several transect methods to evaluate the abundance of butterflies have been proposed (Pollard, E. 1977, Biol. Conserv. 12:115—134; Feltwell, 3. 1982. Proc. Trans. Br. Entomol. Nat. Hist. Soc. 15:17—24). ... -
A Constrained 3D Density Model of the Upper Crust from Gravity Data Interpretation for Central Costa Rica
(2010-01-05)The map of complete Bouguer anomaly of Costa Rica shows an elongated NW-SE trending gravity low in the central region. This gravity low coincides with the geographical region known as the Cordillera Volcánica Central. It ... -
A distinctive oral phenotype points to FAM20A mutations not identified by Sanger sequencing
(2015-10-04)Biallelic FAM20A mutations cause two conditions where Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI) is the presenting feature: Amelogenesis Imperfecta and Gingival Fibromatosis Syndrome; and Enamel Renal Syndrome. A distinctive oral phenotype ... -
A genome‐wide quantitative trait locus (QTL) linkage scan of NEO personality factors in Latino families segregating bipolar disorder
(2017)Personality traits have been suggested as potential endophenotypes for Bipolar Disorder (BP), as they can be quantitatively measured and show correlations with BP. The present study utilized data from 2,745 individuals ... -
A Geometric Splitting Theorem
(2019)Let G = G1...Gl be a connected noncompact semisimple Lie group with Lie algebra g = g_1+g_2+....+ g_l acting topologically transitive on a manifold M. We obtain a geometric splitting of the metric on M that consider ... -
A melt-focusing zone in the lithospheric mantle preserved in the Santa Elena Ophiolite, Costa Rica
(2015-08-01)The Santa Elena Ophiolite in Costa Rica is composed of a well-preserved fragment of the lithospheric mantle that formed along a paleo-spreading center. Within its exposed architecture, this ophiolite records a deep section ... -
A Mesoamerican origin of cherimoya (Annona cherimola Mill.): Implications for the conservation of plant genetic resources
(2017)Knowledge on the structure and distribution of genetic diversity is a key aspect to plan and execute an efficient conservation and utilization of the genetic resources of any crop as well as for determining historical ... -
A Metabolic Widget Adjusts the Phosphoenolpyruvate-Dependent Fructose Influx in Pseudomonas putida
(2016)Fructose uptake in the soil bacterium Pseudomonas putida occurs through a canonical phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent sugar transport system (PTSFru). The logic of the genetic circuit that rules its functioning is puzzling: ... -
A microbial consortium from a biomixture swiftly degrades high concentrations of carbofuran in fluidized-bed reactors
(2016)An on-farm biopurification system (BPS) biomixture, with proven capacity to degrade carbofuran (CBF) was used as inoculum for a selective-enrichment process to obtain a bacterial consortium capable of using CBF as a sole ... -
