Two reaches of Aguapeí River, a left-bank tributary of the Paraná River in western São Paulo state, Brazil, were studied with the objective of assessing the role of bend curvature on channel migration in this wet-tropical ...

Channel changes in meandering rivers naturally exhibit complex behaviour, and understanding the river dynamics can be challenging in environments also subject to cumulative human impacts. Planform changes were analysed on ...

In mammals a class of ion channels able to sense a wide range of temperatures (0-60 °C) has evolved. These molecular thermodynamic machines called thermo Transient Receptor Potential (thermoTRP) are spread through the ...

This introductory minireview points out the importance of ion channels for cell communication. The basic concepts on the structure and function of ion channels triggered by membrane voltage changes, the so-called voltage-gated ...

Given the growing consumer preference for eastern food and the increase in restaurants offering this cuisine, the aim of this article was to characterize and analyze the form of selection of distribution and communication ...

In mammals a class of ion channels able to sense a wide range of temperatures (0-60 °C) has evolved. These molecular thermodynamic machines called thermo Transient Receptor Potential (thermoTRP) are spread through the ...

Behavioral output of neural networks depends on a delicate balance between excitatory and inhibitory synaptic connections. However, it is not known whether network formation and stability is constrained by the sign of ...

A Summary: Mathematical models of the cardiac cell have started to include markovian representations of the ionic channels instead of the traditional Hodgkin & Huxley formulations. There are many reasons for this: Markov ...
