IMPACT OF THE DEEP CONVECTION OF ISOPRENE AND OTHER REACTIVE TRACE SPECIES ON RADICALS AND OZONE IN THE UPPER TROPOSPHERE

Impact of the deep convection of isoprene and other reactive trace species on radicals and ozone in the upper troposphere

Observations of a comprehensive suite of inorganic and organic trace gases, including non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs), halogenated organics and oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOCs), obtained from the NASA DC-8 over Canada during the ARCTAS aircraft campaign in July 2008 illustrate that convection is important for redistributing both long-

Can monetary incentives overturn fairness-based decisions?

Fairness norms and resulting behaviours are an important prerequisite for cooperation in human societies.At the same time, financial incentives are commonly used to motivate social behaviours, yet it remains unclear how financial incentives affect fairness-based behaviours.Combining a decision paradigm from behavioural economics with hierarchical d

Exploring the relationship between trunk flexibility and arterial stiffness measured by pulse wave velocity: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

BackgroundAs individuals age, the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) increases, largely due to progressive stiffening of the arteries.This relationship underscores the critical need to monitor arterial stiffness as a predictor of CVD outcomes.While aerobic exercise has demonstrated benefits for vascular health, the influence of flexibility, parti
