We update the forcings for the PMIP3 experiments for the Last Millennium to include new assessments of historical land use changes and discuss new suggestions for calibrating solar activity proxies to total solar irradiance.

Renal cell cancer (RCC) incidence varies worldwide with a higher incidence in developed countries and lifestyle is likely to contribute to the development of this disease. We examined whether meat and fish consumption were related to the risk of RCC in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). The analysis included 493,179 EPIC participants, recruited between 1992 an

This article traces the life and activities of the Indian anti-colonial nationalist Virendranath ‘Chatto’ Chattopadhyaya in the European anarchist movement from 1910 to 1927. While Chatto is better known for his role as secretary for the Comintern-led League Against Imperialism (1927-1933), this article argues that his peripatetic movements in European revolutionary networks during the early decad

Poly(oxindole biphenylene) was functionalized with tetrazole pendants and evaluated as base material for alkaline ion-solvating membranes for water electrolysis. The poly(oxindole biphenylene) parent polymer was obtained by superacid catalyzed polyhydroxyalkylation and subsequently functionalized by cyanoalkylation. The cyanoalkyl groups were thereafter converted to tetrazole pendants by a click t

In this paper, we argue that information researchers should use images as a source of data. The information systems field is overwhelmingly visual in nature. Not only is the Internet crammed with images, but also almost every detail observed during fieldwork in different research settings can be captured in the form of digital images. Yet, we rarely engage with those images. Except for sporadic vi

Objectives: This study investigated comorbidity in chemical intolerance (CI) and building-related intolerance (BRI) with (i) chronic sinusitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, allergic and nonallergic asthma and allergic rhinitis, and (ii) airway inflammatory symptoms. Methods: Data from two population-based questionnaire surveys, the Västerbotten and Österbotten Environmental Health Studie

An interleaved pseudocinematographic FLASH (fast low-angle shot) sequence with additional pulsed gradients for flow encoding was used to quantify cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow velocities and CSF production. Flow-dependent phase information was obtained by subtracting two differently encoded phase images. The phase information in the resultant image was converted to flow velocity with a calibratio

The results of thermodynamic modeling of superhard materials based on cubic boron nitride (cBN) with a tantalum nitride (TaN) binder and additions of aluminum, as well as microfibers of various physicochemical nature (oxide (Al2O3, Mg2B2O5) and non-oxide (SiC, Si3N4)), are presented. The theoretically calculated chemical interactions between the components of superhard composite materials are expe

Hur såg det svenska stödet ut för Norges rätt att lämna unionen 1905.

Ice-core timescales are vital for the understanding of past climate; hence they should be updated whenever significant amounts of new data become available. Here, the Greenland ice-core chronology GICC05 was revised for the last 3835 years by synchronizing six deep ice cores and three shallow ice cores from the central Greenland ice sheet. A new method was applied by combining automated counting o

The aim of this presentation is to examine the complex reception history of Astrid Lindgren's classic children's book “Pippi Longstocking” in the GDR based on the appearance and paper quality of the various editions. “Pippi Longstockning” was published in two different editions in 1975 and 1988 by the East Berlin Children's Book Publishing House (Kinderbuchverlag Berlin). The differences between t

The 1H and 13C NMR parameters, i.e., chemical shifts and coupling constants, for the pentasaccharide of the Forssman antigen and overlapping di-, tri-, and tetra-saccharide sequences thereof have been measured and assigned completely using 1D and 2D techniques, and the oligosaccharide structures have thereby been confirmed. Nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) experiments have been carried out at three

This book contributes to the emerging global discourse on sustainable entrepreneurship by highlighting its transformative potential to harmonise economic growth with environmental sustainability. It emphasises the role of innovative, sustainability‑driven entrepreneurs in reshaping production and consumption practices to achieve just and equitable economic, social, and environmental outcomes. By e

This study investigated the associations between solar and geomagnetic activity and circulating biomarkers of systemic inflammation and endothelial activation in the Normative Aging Study (NAS) cohort. Mixed effects models with moving day averages from day 0 to day 28 were used to study the associations between solar activity (sunspot number (SSN), interplanetary magnetic field (IMF)), geomagnetic

Radicalization is most often seen as a gradual process that may or may not lead to radical or extreme behaviors such as terrorism. Theories on the radicalization process often highlight the potential role of social exclusion in the propensity for radicalization. We here present some of the major radicalization theories and discuss exclusion as a common denominator that could trigger a radicalizati
