Évolution des structures spatiales récurrentes des températures quotidiennes en Bourgogne.
2011
6 pages; International audience; L’objectif est de définir, à partir de 24 stations météorologiques, différentes structures spatiales récurrentes de larépartition des températures minimales (Tn) et maximales (Tx) en Bourgogne. Après avoir désaisonnalisé les séries detempératures, une Classification Hiérarchique Ascendante (CHA) est utilisée pour regrouper les jours ayant des structuresspatiales similaires. Huit classes ont été définies, quatre pour les Tn et quatre pour les Tx. Pour les deux variables, ellesidentifient les cas de gradient thermique (i) Nord-Ouest/Sud-Est, (ii) Sud-Est/Nord-Ouest, (iii) altitudinal positif et (iv)altitudinal négatif. Les fréquences d’occurrences de ces struc…
A new method for the study of antiparallel ferroelectric domains
1992
Abstract Beam-coupling topography is a non-destructive holographic technique for spatially resolved recording of hysteresis loops and for imaging of domains. Its basic principle is interference of rays diffracted from a holographic grating with collinear, transmitted ones. Full domain contrast and noise suppression is achieved by appropriate control of intensity and phase of the interfering beams. The method is applied to antiparallel a-domains in (Sr0.61Ba0.39)Nb2O6:Ce.
Peptide–Membrane Interactions Monitored by Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging: A Study Case of Transportan 10
2021
The interest on detailed analysis of peptide-membrane interactions is of great interest in both fundamental and applied sciences as these may relate to both functional and pathogenic events. Such interactions are highly dynamic and spatially heterogeneous, making the investigation of the associated phenomena highly complex. The specific properties of membranes and peptide structural details, together with environmental conditions, may determine different events at the membrane interface, which will drive the fate of the peptide-membrane system. Here, we use an experimental approach based on the combination of spectroscopy and fluorescence microscopy methods to characterize the interactions …
Sediment delivery processes and the spatial distribution of caesium-137 in a small Sicilian basin
1998
The sediment delivery processes occurring in a small Sicilian basin are modelled using the spatially distributed SEDD model recently proposed by Ferro and Minacapilli. The model is applied by using soil data (grain-size distribution, organic matter content, etc.) of 129 samples uniformly distributed over the study area and compiling the available information (topographic map, soil data, etc.) into a Geographical Information System. Finally, the predictive capability of the distributed sediment delivery approach is tested experimentally using the caesium-137 measurement technique. The comparison between calculated sediment yield and the corresponding measured caesium-137 loss is used to vali…
Eye Cataract Simulation Using Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal Scattering Obstacles
2004
Polymer dispersed liquid crystals with electrically induced variations of light scattering extent similar to that of transparent PLZT ceramics are used for simulation of different development stages of eye cataract. Wavelength dependencies of scattering are determined in the visible spectral range, and human visual response looking through the scattering obstacle to the onset of various spatial frequency stimuli is determined psychophysically and electrophysiologically in order to find correlation between the scattering extent, visual acuity and visual evoked potential VEP chromatic characteristics.

Effects of lobeline on spatial learning in C57BL mice
2000
In the present study, the effect of lobeline on water maze performance in C57BL/6J mice have been evaluated. In the first experiment, subjects were 2-month old mice to which lobeline (3.5 and 7 mg/kg) had been administered SC along 5 days 15 min before daily training in the water maze. Results showed that lobeline did not have effects on the acquisition of the task. In the second experiment, effects of lobeline were compared in 2, 6 and 20-month old mice. In this experiment the drug was administered daily five days prior to the beginning of the task and during the five days of acquisition. Results indicated that 20-month old mice learned the spatial task more slowly than 2 and 6-month old m…
Przeobrażenia przestrzennej struktury miast w Ameryce Łacińskiej
2008
In recent years, processes have taken place within the space of cities of Latin America, resulting in the fact that their spatial structure is changing in an essential way. The author tries to describe the essence and directions of the transformations under way and to specify the most characteristic elements which have appeared within the space of a few chosen cities. Research conducted in various countries of the region shows a continuing presence of some traditional features of the spatial structure of cities. However, simultaneously, some new features which are becoming the predominant element in the reality of the cities are gradually growing stronger and stronger. Observations of proce…
