One of the greatest archaeological enigmas is in understanding the role of decision-making, intentionality and interventions in plant life cycles by foraging peoples in transitions to and from low-level food production practices.We bring together archaeological, palaeoclimatological and botanical data to explore relationships over the past 4000 yea
Background/Aim.Complex regional pain syndrome type I (CRPS I) is characterized by continuous regional pain, disproportional according to duration and intensity and to the sort of trauma or other lesion it was caused by.The aim of the study Adjustable Foot was to evaluate and compare, by using thermovison, the effects of low level laser therapy and
This paper proposes a sliding mode synchronous control approach to enhance the position synchronization performance and anti-interference capability of a double lifting point hydraulic hoist.Building upon the cross-coupling synchronous control method, a coupling sliding mode surface is formulated, incorporating the single-cylinder following error a
Tuttuk (caribou (Rangifer tarandus)) populations are in decline across Canada, making them a major conservation concern for Inuit of Nunatsiavut (Northern Labrador) and Nunavik (Northern Quebec).This study investigates changes to caribou forage over 14 years at two tundra sites in northern Nunatsiavut, Labrador.We ask: (1) How much of the total veg
The spaceflight environment is relevant to conditions encountered by pathogens during the course of infection and induces novel changes in microbial pathogenesis not observed using conventional methods.It is unclear how microbial cells sense spaceflight-associated changes to their growth environment and orchestrate corresponding changes in molecula
