Landscape effects in the intertidal around the coastline of great britain
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015-09-25)Aim We tested whether the size of habitat patches along the coastline of Great Britain influences molluscan species richness. Location Coastline of Great Britain. Methods Intertidal mollusc data were compiled from the ... -
Large acoustoelastic effect
(Elsevier BV, 2012-03-01) -
Large time approximation for shearing motions
(Society for Industrial & Applied Mathematics (SIAM), 2016-01-01)Small- and large-amplitude oscillatory shear tests are widely used by experimentalists to measure, respectively, linear and nonlinear properties of viscoelastic materials. These tests are based on the quasi-static approximation ... -
Large-scale cognitive gwas meta-analysis reveals tissue-specific neural expression and potential nootropic drug targets
(Elsevier BV, 2017-11-01)Here, we present a large (n = 107,207) genome-wide association study (GWAS) of general cognitive ability ("g''), further enhanced by combining results with a large-scale GWAS of educational attainment. We identified ... -
Large-scale genotyping identifies 41 new loci associated with breast cancer risk
(Springer Nature, 2013-03-27)Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women. Common variants at 27 loci have been identified as associated with susceptibility to breast cancer, and these account for similar to 9% of the familial risk of the ... -
Large-scale movements in european badgers: has the tail of the movement kernel been underestimated?
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-03-06)Characterizing patterns of animal movementis a major aimin population ecology, and yet doing so at an appropriate spatial scale remains a major challenge. Estimating the frequency and distances of movements is of particular ... -

Latest quaternary palaeoceanographic change in the eastern north atlantic based upon a dinoflagellate cyst event ecostratigraphy
(Elsevier BV, 2016-05-01)The analyses of dinoflagellate cyst records, from the latest Quaternary sediments recovered from DSDP Core 610A taken on the Feni Ridge in the southern Rockall Trough, and part of core MD01-2461 on the continental margin ... -
Latitude and lake size are important predictors of over-lake atmospheric stability
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-08-08)Turbulent fluxes across the air-water interface are integral to determining lake heat budgets, evaporation, and carbon emissions from lakes. The stability of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) influences the exchange of ... -
Lc-pufa-enriched oil production by microalgae: accumulation of lipid and triacylglycerols containing n-3 lc-pufa is triggered by nitrogen limitation and inorganic carbon availability in the marine haptophyte pavlova lutheri
(MDPI AG, 2013-10-30)In most microalgal species, triacyglycerols (TAG) contain mostly saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids, rather than PUFA, while PUFA-enriched oil is the form most desirable for dietary intake. The ability of some species ... -

Leaching losses of nitrate nitrogen and dissolved organic nitrogen from a yearly two crops system, wheat-maize, under monsoon situations
(Springer Nature, 2011-08-02)A large amount of nitrogen (N) fertilizers applied to the winter wheat-summer maize double cropping systems in the North China Plain (NCP) contributes largely to N leaching to the groundwater. A series of field experiments ... -
Leakage inductance calculation for planar transformers with a magnetic shunt
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014-11-01)The magnetic shunt is generally inserted in a planar transformer to increase the leakage inductance, which can be utilized as the series inductor in resonant circuits such as the LLC resonant converter. This paper presents ... -
Learning and performance of tracheal intubation by novice personnel: a comparison of the airtraqr and macintosh laryngoscope
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2006-07-01)Direct laryngoscopic tracheal intubation is taught to many healthcare professionals as it is a potentially lifesaving procedure. However, it is a difficult skill to acquire and maintain, and, of concern, the consequences ... -
Learning from doing: the case for combining normalisation process theory and participatory learning and action research methodology for primary healthcare implementation research
(Springer Nature, 2016-08-03)Background: The implementation of research findings is not a straightforward matter. There are substantive and recognised gaps in the process of translating research findings into practice and policy. In order to overcome ... -
