The last remnants of the Italian Apennine glaciers: 3-D modeling of the Lower Calderone Glacieret by the IDW spatial interpolation of GPR data by Matteo Dossi, Elisabetta Mattei, Massimo Pecci, Barbara Cosciotti, Sebastian Emanuel Lauro, Angelo Monaco, Marco Scozzafava, Elena Pettinelli

“…We applied a proprietary auto-picking algorithm to track reflections accurately and objectively within three pseudo-3-D GPR data sets that were acquired over the Lower Glacieret in different years. After the time-to-depth conversion, the basal reflections were projected onto the normal versors of a 3-D topographic model of the survey area, at the different GPR trace positions. …”

Investigations on the Antifungal Effect of Nerol against Aspergillus flavus Causing Food Spoilage by Jun Tian, Xiaobin Zeng, Hong Zeng, Zhaozhong Feng, Xiangmin Miao, Xue Peng

“…The NEL also had an evident inhibitory effect on spore germination in A. flavus along with NEL concentration as well as time-dependent kinetic inhibition. The NEL presented noticeable inhibition on dry mycelium weight and synthesis of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) by A. flavus, totally restraining AFB1 production at 0.6 μL/mL. …”

Exploring motivation, goals, facilitators, and barriers to adopt health behaviors at retirement age: a focus group study by Paula Collazo-Castiñeira, Rocío Rodríguez-Rey, Gisela I. Delfino, Alfonso J. Cruz-Jentoft, Eva Topinková, Peter J. M. Weijs, Josje D. Schoufour, Macarena Sánchez-Izquierdo

“…Results The main facilitators and barriers identified were the presence and absence of social support/social network, mental health, willpower, time, and motivation. Participants reported different types of motivation (e.g., intrinsic motivation in the enjoyment of the activity of exercise or cooking) and goals (intrinsic and extrinsic); except for the goal of health management, which presented both types of motivation, participants regulated intrinsic goals autonomously, and extrinsic ones with controlled motivation. …”
