An elucidatory model of oxygen's partial pressure inside substomatal cavities by A. S. Kowalski, A. S. Kowalski

“…<p>A parsimonious model based on Dalton's law reveals substomatal cavities to be dilute in oxygen (O<span class="inline-formula">₂)</span>, despite photosynthetic O<span class="inline-formula">₂</span> production. Transpiration elevates the partial pressure of water vapour but counteractively depresses the partial pressures of dry air's components – proportionally including O<span class="inline-formula">₂</span> – preserving cavity pressurization that is negligible as regards air composition. …”

Simulation of SARS-CoV-2 Aerosol Emissions in the Infected Population and Resulting Airborne Exposures in Different Indoor Scenarios by Michael Riediker, Christian Monn

“…The scenario tests suggest that in typical situations such as moderately ventilated offices, small shops, trains, buses, or carpool, very high emitters (99th percentile and above) not wearing masks are likely to cause concentrations with an elevated risk of infection via aerosols, especially in the near-field of the infected person. …”

Aggressive Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Presenting with Metastasis to the Pancreas by Firas Warda, Sam Ho, Enoch Kuo, Dinesh Rao, Marilu Jurado-Flores

“…Due to recurrent findings of residual thyroid tissue on whole-body scan imaging, the patient underwent radioactive iodine ablation therapy twice, with poor response to therapy, suggested by persistently elevated thyroglobulin levels. However, the residual tissue responded to external beam radiation. …”

The diet of young Neandertals from France, Pech de l’Azé I and Hortus II, reconstructed using dental microwear texture analysis by Frank L’Engle Williams, Christopher W Schmidt, Jessica L Droke, Whitney M Karriger, Gaël Becam, Fred H Smith, Marie-Antoinette de Lumley

“…When complexity is compared to anisotropy, Pech de l’Azé I exhibits an elevated value from the mastication of plants with hard parts or adherent particles, or the consumption of foods that were poorly processed or grit-laden, whereas Hortus II presents a low value, perhaps from limited access to hard plant parts such as seeds and nuts. …”

Le tourisme oléicole en Provence, une forme touristique inaboutie by Philippe Bachimon, Pierre Dérioz

“…Certes,depuis le milieu des années 1990, la dimension touristique du produit s’est affirmée : vente directe d’huile, de sous-produits et produits connexes, ou de services associés (restauration, visite des sites de production, balisage des routes de l’olivier, définition de paysages artefactuels…) La Provence, grande destination touristique, est tentée de valoriser sur place une production « hors norme » (réduite en étendue, et rendements, aux prix les plus élevés du marché). Mais entre l’auto-prédicatif du discours (professionnel, politique…) et la réalité de terrain se creusent des écarts importants.…”
