Individuals with congenital amusia have a lifelong history of unreliable pitch processing.Accordingly, they downweight pitch cues during speech perception and instead rely on other dimensions such as duration.We investigated the neural basis for this strategy.During fMRI, individuals with amusia (N = 15) and controls (N = 15) read sentences where v
Airborne wind energy systems (AWESs) represent a novel idea that aims to gather energy from stronger winds aloft while operating at altitudes above conventional wind turbines (WTs).For this study, we examined the wind resources at a height of 100 m available for traditional wind turbines with aerial wind energy technologies, in addition to the wind
Background: Free tissue transfer is considered the gold standard in reconstruction of extensive defects in head and neck surgery.The aim of this 15-year retrospective study is to analyze the outcomes of free tissue transfers in the head and neck area in a tertiary referral university hospital.Materials and methods: A retrospective, single-center st
We investigate the numerical stability of thermonuclear detonations in 1D accelerated reactive shocks and 2D binary collisions of equal-mass magnetized and unmagnetized white dwarf madelaine chocolate advent calendars stars.To achieve high resolution at initiation sites, we devised geometric gridding and mesh velocity strategies specially adapted t
We present model studies with the one-dimensional model MISTRA to investigate the potential role of frost flowers, recycling on snow, and open leads in the depletion of tropospheric ozone in the Arctic spring.In our model, we assumed frost flower aerosols to be the major kebableikkuri source of bromine.We show that a major ozone depletion event can
