Comprehensive analysis of the circadian nuclear and cytoplasmic transcriptome in mouse liver

Felix Naef, Cédric Gobet, Benjamin Dieter Weger, Clémence Yumie Syloun Hurni

In eukaryotes, RNA is synthesised in the nucleus, spliced, and exported to the cytoplasm where it is translated and finally degraded. Any of these steps could be subject to temporal regulation during the circadian cycle, resulting in daily fluctuations of ...

A multi-site, year-round turbulence microstructure atlas for the deep perialpine Lake Garda

Bieito Fernandez Castro, Sebastiano Piccolroaz

A multi-site, year-round dataset comprising a total of 606 high-resolution turbulence microstructure profiles of shear and temperature gradient in the upper 100 m depth is made available for Lake Garda (Italy). Concurrent meteorological data were measured ...

Virtual reality to assess visual attraction and perceived interest to daylit scene variations

Marilyne Andersen, Kynthia Chamilothori, Caroline Karmann, Bahar Aydemir

Façades and light pattern composition have been shown to influence the spatial experience and physiological responses of humans [1,2]. The present study examines the effect of sunlight penetration and window size on fixations to the floor of the scene, and ...

A Closing Window of Opportunity to Save a Unique Marine Ecosystem

Anders Meibom, Maoz Fine

Five years in the making, a massive oil spill of 1 million barrels is imminent in the Red Sea off the coast of Yemen. Emergent action must be taken by the United Nations and its International Maritime Organization (IMO) to remove the oil, despite regional ...

Modeling the kinetics of the main peak and later age of alite hydration

Alexandre Reda Constantin William Caleb Ouzia

The aim of this thesis is to understand the mechanisms underlying the main hydration peak and later ages of alite hydration; it proposes new mechanistic models for these two stages. Alite is the main constituent of Portland Cement (PC), and is responsible ...

Circadian clock- and feeding-dependent regulation of translation initiation and elongation in the liver

Cédric Gobet

Circadian rhythms allow organisms to anticipate and adapt to periodic environmental changes related to the day-night cycle. These rhythms originate from a genetic network ticking in almost every cell of our body and the coordination between different organ ...

Wake flow in a wind farm during a diurnal cycle

Fernando Porté Agel, Mahdi Abkar, Ahmad Sharifi

The atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) undergoes substantial changes in its structure and dynamics in the course of a day due to the transient nature of forcing factors such as the surface fluxes of heat and momentum. The non-stationary nature of the mean wi ...

Raman Lidar for Meteorological Observations, RALMO - Part 1: Instrument description

Hubert van den Bergh, Marc Parlange, Valentin Simeonov, Bertrand Calpini, Todor Dinoev

A new Raman lidar for unattended, round-the-clock measurement of vertical water vapor profiles for operational use by the MeteoSwiss has been developed during the past years by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne. The lidar uses narrow fiel ...

Effects of prior light exposure on early evening performance, subjective sleepiness, and hormonal secretion

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Friedrich Linhart, Mirjam Münch, Apiparn Borisuit

In sighted humans, light intensity, timing, exposure duration, and spectral composition of light are important to entrain the endogenous circadian pacemaker to the 24-h day-night cycle. We tested the impact of two realistic office lighting conditions durin ...

Application of Oxygen Eddy Correlation in Aquatic Systems

Alfred Johny Wüest

The eddy correlation technique is rapidly becoming an established method for resolving dissolved oxygen fluxes in natural aquatic systems. This direct and noninvasive determination of oxygen fluxes close to the sediment by simultaneously measuring the velo ...

The influence of local meteorological conditions on the circadian rhythm of corn (Zea mays L.) pollen emission

Marc Parlange

Field experiments were performed to study the diurnal cycle of corn pollen emission and its relation to local meteorological conditions, including temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation, mean wind speed, and turbulence quantities. Pollen concentra ...
