Rapid Emulation of Spatially Resolved Temperature Response to Effective Radiative Forcing by Christopher B. Womack, Paolo Giani, Sebastian D. Eastham, Noelle E. Selin

“…Faster approaches such as intermediate complexity modeling and pattern scaling are limited by low resolution and invariant response patterns, respectively. We propose a generalizable framework for emulating climate variables to overcome these issues, representing the climate system through spatially resolved impulse response functions. …”

Role of Opioid Ligands in the Irritable Bowel Syndrome by Enrico Corazziari

“…Unlike the mu receptor agonists morphine and loperamide, which invariably stimulate colonic motility, trimebutine, which has almost equal affinity for mu, delta and kappa receptors, has no effect on normal colonic activity but reduces the abnormal increase in postprandial motor activity in IBS patients and accelerates slow large bowel transit in constipated patients. …”

Hearing in categories and speech perception at the "cocktail party". by Gavin M Bidelman, Fallon Bernard, Kimberly Skubic

“…., whether responses were binary or continuous judgments), we then show the degree of release from masking experienced at the cocktail party is predicted by their degree of categoricity in phoneme labeling and not high-frequency audiometric thresholds; more discrete listeners make less effective use of time-reversal and show less release from masking than their gradient responding peers. …”
