Investigating the inner controls on explosive eruptions using textural analyses and petrology by Bernard, Olivier

“…First, I focus on the Rabaul caldera system (Papua-New-Guinea) where effusive, strombolian, vulcanian and sub-plinian eruptions occured in the past 120 years without any noticeable chemical changes in the magma compositions. I find that slight changes in the pre-eruptive state of the magma such as phenocryst-content and exsolved volatile contents influenced magma ascent rates and subsequent eruption styles. …”

Three essays on corporate finance by Sun, Rui

“…The above pattern remains robust if we apply various matching schemes or if we only look at the transitory cash flow shock. To find out what is the driving force of private firms’ cash flow allocation, we attempt to draw parallel evidence from public firms, but find that the analysis within public firms cannot be applied mechanically to private firms. …”

A mid-life health crisis : supplements for good health. by Toh, Hwee Ling.

“…The data is collected from 20 interviewees between the ages 30 to 60, with a representative percentage of the national ethnic division, in a period of three months from October 2009 to January 2010. An important finding is the challenges to their doctors’ opinions by seeking second opinions from friends and the Internet, as well as the link between gender and the propensity to consume health supplements, where men are more likely to reject supplements and women to consume them and encourage others to consume them regardless of their ethnicity.…”

Strong and weak random walks on signed networks by Babul, SA, Tian, Y, Lambiotte, R

“…Comparing strong and weak walks on synthetic and empirical networks, we demonstrate that weak walks outperform strong walks in scenarios involving more than two communities or asymmetric link densities. Our findings suggest that replacing strong walks with weak walks could enhance other signed network random-walk algorithms, broadening their applicability to more realistic network structures.…”

Function and regulation of the ADP-ribosylhydrolase TARG1 by Groslambert, J

“…Moreover, I sought to translate the prior <em>in vitro</em> findings to a more physiological context by directly investigating TARG1’s glutamate/aspartate-linked ADPr reversal activity in cells. …”
