Age-related differences in functional connectivity during scene encoding by Leow, Dayton Wei Yang

“…The functional network underlying episodic encoding involves both the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and medial temporal lobe (MTL).1 Episodic encoding differs in terms of the stimuli and the types of encoding.2. Past neuroimaging studies have found both the parahippocampus in the MTL and inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) in the PFC to be activated for scene encoding.3 In addition, when scenes are encoded based on its meaningfulness (i.e. relational encoding), the hippocampus will be activated for relational binding of the stimuli.4. …”

Broadleaf afforestation impacts on terrestrial hydrology insignificant compared to climate change in Great Britain by Buechel, M, Slater, L, Dadson, S

“…For these three aims we run simulations using (i) past climate with proposed land cover changes and known floods and drought events; (ii) past climate with independent changes in precipitation, temperature, and CO₂; and (iii) a potential future climate (2020–2050). …”

A driftwood-based record of Arctic sea ice during the last 500 years from northern Svalbard reveals sea ice dynamics in the Arctic Ocean and Arctic peripheral seas by Hole, GM, Rawson, T, Farnsworth, WR, Schomacker, A, Ingólfsson, Ó, Macias-Fauria, M

“…Driftwood occurrence and provenance also track the northward ice formation shift in peripheral Arctic seas in the past century. A distinct decrease in driftwood incursion during the last 30 years matches the observed decline in pan-Arctic sea ice extent in recent decades. …”

Surface mapping of faceted metal oxides by chemical probe-assisted NMR for catalytic applications by Peng, Y

“…As a result, this often leads to different interpretations amongst researchers during the past decades.</p> <p>As the publications of titanium and zinc ranked top two among studies of first row of transition oxides in the past decades, this thesis will firstly review on the disagreements generated among researchers when they correlated the performance of ZnO and TiO₂ with their facet activities based on traditional techniques. …”
