The Story of Elaeagia Resin (Mopa-Mopa), So Far

The unusual resin from some species of Elaeagia, a genus now found in certain parts of Central America and South America, was probably first utilized by native peoples in Colombia more than a thousand years Toasters ago.It became a crucial part of often elaborately decorated objects made in the southwestern city of Pasto in the colonial period, and

A New 32-Day Average-Difference Method for Calculating Inter-Sensor Calibration Radiometric Biases between SNPP and NOAA-20 Instruments within ICVS Framework

Two existing double-difference (DD) methods, using either a 3rdSensor or Radiative Transfer Modeling (RTM) as a transfer, are applicable primarily for limited regions and channels, and, thus critical in capturing inter-sensor calibration radiometric bias features.A supplementary method is also desirable for estimating inter-sensor calibration biase

Sex differences in the impact of resistance exercise load on muscle damage: A protocol for a randomised parallel group trial.

IntroductionResistance training can induce skeletal muscle hypertrophy and strength gains, but is also associated with acute muscle damage, characterised by muscle soreness, impaired muscle function, and structural damage to muscle cell membranes and its components.These consequences can be detrimental to future exercise performance and dampen long
