In this study, we address the variations of bare soil surface microwave brightness temperatures and evaluate the performance of a dielectric mixing model over the desert of Kuwait.We use data collected in a field survey and data obtained from NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP), Metal Table Lamp (1/CN) European Space Agency Soil Moisture and O
The phyllosphere is populated by numerous microorganisms.Microbes from the wider environment, i.e., air and soil, are considered key contributors to phyllosphere microbial communities, but their contribution is unclear.This study seeks to address this knowledge gap by controlling the movement of microbes along the air-phyllosphere-soil continuum.Cu
Abstract Background Growing evidence has indicated that tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) promote tumor angiogenesis.However, the mechanisms underlying the pro-angiogenic switch of TAMs remains unclear.Here, we examined how exosomal miR-301a-3p secreted by esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells triggers the pro-angiogenic switch of TAMs.
The effect of molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) on the friction and wear of aluminum bronze was studied at the temperature up to 973 K.MoO3 powder supplied to the sliding interface between aluminum bronze and stainless steel reduced friction coefficient and wear of materials at the temperature from 773 to 973 K.Copper-molybdenum oxide was generated by sli
The foundation of the Theological College in Belgrade is viewed in the context of complex political circumstances which followed the restoration of the Serbian state and the efforts of the Serbian church to gain autonomy and the right to elect bishops independently from the Universal Patriarchate.Once having achieved these goals, and with a convict
