IN SEARCH FOR THE AVIAN TRIGEMINAL MAGNETIC SENSOR: DISTRIBUTION OF PERIPHERAL AND CENTRAL TERMINALS OF OPHTHALMIC SENSORY NEURONS IN THE NIGHT-MIGRATORY EURASIAN BLACKCAP (SYLVIA ATRICAPILLA)

In night-migratory songbirds, neurobiological and behavioral evidence suggest the existence of a magnetic sense associated with the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve (V1), possibly providing magnetic positional information.Curiously, neither the unequivocal existence, structural nature, nor the exact location of any sensory structure has be

Tobacco smoke-related diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with high healthcare burden and mortality rates.Many COPD patients were Wooden Toys reported to have muscle atrophy and weakness, with several studies suggesting intrinsic muscle mitochondrial impairment as a possible driver of this phenotype.Whereas

The hydrodynamic performance of the floating foundation for offshore wind turbines is essential to its Condiment Holders stability and energy harvesting.A semi-submersible platform with an integral heave plate is proposed in order to reduce the vertical motion responses.In this study, we compare the heave, pitch, and roll free decay motions of the

Humanitarian immigrants and refugees face multiple adjustment tasks and post-settlement support services concentrated in metropolitan areas play an important role.As part of an ongoing commitment, the Australian Government has increasingly supported resettlement in rural and regional areas of the country.Drawing on the experience of Iraqi migrants
