A generalized form of the semi-implicit Runge-Kutta method proposed by Michelsen was developed removing the necessity of defining new variables which place system differential equations in state variable form (ordinary ...

Using Hellmann-Feynman molecular-dynamics simulations, we have investigated interactions of first-row elements with the (110) surfaces of GaAs and InP. We find that these atoms prefer to occupy subsurface sites. The open ...

Solenopsis invicta, the red imported fire ant, has recently become associated with Antonina graminis, an invasive pest, and Neodusmetia sangwani, biological control agent, and maybe negatively affecting established biological ...

The first objective of this study was to investigate the role of an invasive grass species, Arundo donax (L.), on the hydrologic cycle. At a site on the Rio Grande in South Texas, we measured the gas exchange of carbon ...

It has been proposed that the various 14-3-3 isotypes and isoforms present in all eukaryotes are largely functionally equivalent. However, this is not consistent with the conservation of multiple isoforms and isotypes, ...

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly lethal cancer arising from mutations in glial cells. Many therapies currently in development for this disease focus on the role of the immune system and its inability to interact ...
