Spatial Downscaling and Simulation of TRMM Data at High Altitudes — A Case Study of Lhasa River by DAWA Ciren, ZHAO Keke, GU Yu, LUO Xiaoyu, CIWANG Dunzhu

“…As measured precipitation data are often lacking at high altitudes,remote sensing data by satellites could compensate for the shortage of traditional observation.This paper takes the Lhasa River basin as the study area and makes an in-depth analysis of the relationship between precipitation,vegetation,and temperature in this basin.On this basis,the multiple linear regression,residual analysis,and inverse distance weighting (IDW) of spatial interpolation are employed to spatially downscale the TRMM 3B43V7 data that overestimates the precipitation in the study area by about 29% and has a spatial resolution of 0.25°×0.25° to 0.05°×0.05°.Given the measured data of stations,the downscaled data is further revised.The accuracy of the final high-quality precipitation dataset is greatly improved in most regions of the Lhasa River basin,and the dataset can provide basic statistical support for research on hydrology and water resources at high altitudes.…”

Role of Carbamazepine in the Symptomatic Treatment of Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis: A Case Report and Review of the Literature by Sandhya Ravikumar, John Ross Crawford

“…Within days following the administration of carbamazepine, there was remarkable improvement in the myoclonus and he was able to ambulate independently for a period of 4 months at which time he unfortunately progressed to a vegetative state. This case highlights the importance of carbamazepine as a potential first line symptomatic treatment of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis and provides a review of the literature on the subject.…”

Rapid Monitoring of Mercury in Air from an Organic Chemical Factory in China Using a Portable Mercury Analyzer by Akira Yasutake, Jin Ping Cheng, Masako Kiyono, Shimpei Uraguchi, Xiaojie Liu, Kyoko Miura, Yoshiaki Yasuda, Nikolay Mashyanov

“…A current investigation of the mercury distribution in ambient air, soils, and plants suggests that mobile mercury species in soils created elevated mercury concentrations in ambient air and vegetation. Mercury concentrations of up to 600 ng/m3 in air over the contaminated area provided evidence of the mercury transformation to volatile Hg(0). …”
