r-mode seen in inertial frame
(2005-01-01)This animation by Chad Hanna shows an oscillating neutron star seen by an inertial observer. The red dots show the motion of a fluid element, dominated by the star's rotation. The black lines and dotes show the pattern of ... -
r-mode seen in a frame rotating with the star
(2005-01-01)The figure on the right shows the same oscillating star, now as seen by an observer rotating with the star. The red dots now do not rotate, and the the black lines show the pattern of the mode rotating backwards -- in a ... -
Neutron star in elliptical orbit about a black hole
(2011-01-01)A neutron star in an elliptical orbit about a black holes is disrupted as it passes near the black hole. Its apparent spin after the encounter is not really rotation: Without shocks, circulation is exactly preserved. Instead ... -
Nonaxisymmetric instability of water drop: Skylab
(1974-01-01)Rotating stars with viscosity are unstable to a bar mode after the radio T/|W| of rotational kinetic energy to gravitational binding energy exceeds about 0.14. An analogous instability can be seen in water drops where ... -
Time-lapse photos showing paths of Jupiter and Saturn 2000-2001
(2001-01-01)This photo animation of Jupiter (brighter) and Saturn shows them each moving from west to east then appearing to change direction at nearly the same time and move from east to west (retrograde). Finally, they change direction ... -
Early Summer Dissolved Oxygen Characteristics in Restored Streams in Seoul
(2013-01-01)Abstract : This paper presents an evaluation of stream restoration projects in Seoul with a focus on dissolved oxygen. Five test sites across four streams were measured for dissolved oxygen (DO) in late May to early June ... -
Twining : Critical and Creative Approaches to Hypertext Narratives
(2021-01-01)Twining is both a critical consideration of Twine and works made with it during the first decade of the software; and an exploration of concepts and techniques for making things with Twine. -
Stand Up, Speak Out: The Practice and Ethics of Public Speaking
(2017-08-25)Stand Up, Speak Out: The Practice and Ethics of Public Speaking is an open textbook adapted by University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) authors for public speaking courses at UWM. The original work was produced under a ... -
Infrared actuation-induced simultaneous reconfiguration of surface color and morphology for soft robotics
(2017-12-13)Cephalopods, such as cuttlefish, demonstrate remarkable adaptability to the coloration and texture of their surroundings by modulating their skin color and surface morphology simultaneously, for the purpose of adaptive ... -
Evidence for adaptive introgression of exons across a hybrid swarm in deer
(2019-10-01)Background: Secondary contact between closely related lineages can result in a variety of outcomes, including hybridization, depending upon the strength of reproductive barriers. By examining the extent to which different ... -
Diverse microbial communities hosted by the model carnivorous pitcher plant Sarracenia purpurea: analysis of both bacterial and eukaryotic composition across distinct host plant populations
(2019-02-18)Background. The pitcher plant Sarracenia purpurea supplements nutrient acquisition through carnivory, capturing insect prey which are digested by a food web community of eukaryotes and bacteria. While the food web invertebrates ... -
Analysis of social-ecological dynamics driving conflict in linked surface-groundwater systems
(2018-01-01)Conflict over water resources emerges from complex interactions among biophysical, social, and economic processes operating at multiple scales. Competing use of linked surface-groundwater (LSGW) resources is an excellent ... -
Female mate choice of male signals is unlikely to promote ecological adaptation in Enchenopa treehoppers (Hemiptera: Membracidae)
(2018-01-01)A key question in speciation research is how ecological and sexual divergence arise and interact. We tested the hypothesis that mate choice causes local adaptation and ecological divergence using the rationale that the ... -
Mitochondrial Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel Protein Por1 Positively Regulates the Nuclear Localization of Saccharomyces cerevisiae AMP-Activated Protein Kinase
(2018-01-10)ABSTRACT Snf1 protein kinase of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a member of the highly conserved eukaryotic AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) family, which is involved in regulating responses to energy limitation. ... -
Characterization of 2-(2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)- 1,3-cyclohexanedione resistance in pyomelanogenic Pseudomonas aeruginosa DKN343
(2017-06-01)Pyomelanin is a reddish-brown pigment that provides bacteria and fungi protection from oxidative stress, and is reported to contribute to infection persistence. Production of this pigment can be inhibited by the anti-virulence ...
