Studies on mechanisms of splash dispersal of spores, using Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides spores
(1984)Simulated raindrops, 4 or 5 mm in diameter, fell 13 m onto target water films, with Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides spores incorporated into either drops or targets. Resulting splash droplets were collected on fixed ... -
Studies on mineral dust using airborne lidar, ground-based remote sensing, and in situ instrumentation
(2018-04-13)In August 2015, the AER-D campaign made use of the FAAM research aircraft based in Cape Verde, and targeted mineral dust. First results will be shown here. The campaign had multiple objectives: (1) lidar dust mapping for ... -
Studies on the Detection, Expression, Glycosylation, Dimerization, and Ligand Binding Properties of Mouse Siglec-E
(2017-01-20)CD33-related Siglecs are a family of proteins widely expressed on innate immune cells. Binding of sialylated glycans or other ligands triggers signals that inhibit or activate inflammation. Immunomodulation by Siglecs has ... -

Studies on the virome of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana reveal novel dsRNA elements and mild hypervirulence.
(2017-01-23)The entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana has a wide host range and is used as a biocontrol agent against arthropod pests. Mycoviruses have been described in phytopathogenic fungi while in entomopathogenic fungi their ... -
Un studio naturalista sobre el cambio de los conflictos cognitivos durante la psicoterapia
(2008)The authors present a proposal to operationalize and assess the change of a type of eognitive confiict called implicative dilemma (iD) in the context of personal construct theory. In a sample of 87 patients, Dls and symptoms ... -
A study exploring approaches for enhancing deeper learning on international field trips in Human Geography and Planning
(2020-05-01)The field trip is a well-established component of Human Geography and Planning curriculum in Higher education (Rynne, 1998), and seen by many to be both an essential and enjoyable learning method (Kent, 1997; Fuller et ... -
A Study in Positivism and Physiology: Readings of Gustave Courbet
(2010-06-30)This thesis explores ways in which the mid-nineteenth-century current of positivist thought impacted upon the work of the French artist Gustave Courbet (1819-1877). Guided by certain methodological imperatives set out in ... -
A Study into the Usability and Security Implications of Text and Image Based Challenge Questions in the Context of Online Examination
(2019-01-15)Online examinations are an integral component of online learning environments and research studies have identified academic dishonesty as a critical threat to the credibility of such examinations. Academic dishonesty exists ... -
A Study of a Single Robot Interacting with Groups of Children in a Rotation Game Scenario
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2005)We tested the hypothesis that children are more attentive to a robot if the robot appears to be interested in the children. In addition, we investigated if and how the quality and quantity of a child's attentive behaviour ... -
A Study of AGN and their Environments in the Far-Infrared
(University of Hertfordshire, 2014-08-28)My Ph.D. has been composed of work involving the use of far–IR and submm observations of AGN. During this time it has focused on the in- terplay between AGN and their host galaxies and cluster environments. Understanding ... -
A study of baseline prevalence and cumulative incidence of comorbidity and extra-articular manifestations in ra and their impact on outcome
(2013)Objectives. To study the prevalence at diagnosis and cumulative incidence of comorbidity in RA, associations with clinical features and impact on outcome.Methods. Standard clinical, laboratory and radiological measures of ... -
A study of cognitive and behavioural transfer effects associated with children learning to play musical instruments for the first time over one academic year.
(2015-10-08)Interest in studies investigating the indirect effect of music education, evaluated theoretically as ‘transfer effects’ (Barnett & Ceci, 2002) has been re-energised by the recent changes in policy that require musical ... -
A study of disjunctive and conjunctive reasoning in formal logic
(University of Hertfordshire, 1997)When reasoning with statements containing logical connectives in everyday discourse, people sometimes employ reasoning strategies that do not comply with the dictates of logic yet are still sufficient for their purpose. ... -
A study of effective and best practice usage and implementation of tablet PCs in engineering education
(2016-09-14)There are certain limitations with traditional presentational-style (‘PowerPoint’) lectures that must be addressed in order to improve the quality of lecturing and meet students’ expectations on lecture quality and experience. ... -
A study of episodic memory-based learning and narrative structure for autobiographic agents

A study of full space motions of outer Galactic disk A and F stars in two deep pencil beams
(2019-05-01)A and F stars can be used as probes of outer Galactic disc kinematics: here we extend the work of Harris et al. by cross-matching their A/F sample with Gaia DR2 to bring in proper motions. These are combined with the already ... -
Study of Gross Muscle Fatigue During Human-Robot Interactions
(IARIA, 2017-03-19)This study explores the utility of Electromyogram (EMG) signals in the context of upper-limb exercises during human-robot interaction considering muscle fatigue of the participant. We hypothesise that the Electromyogram ... -
A study of halo and relic radio emission in merging clusters using the Murchison Widefield Array
(2017-05-01)We have studied radio haloes and relics in nine merging galaxy clusters using the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA). The images used for this study were obtained from the GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky MWA (GLEAM) Survey ...
