Improving flood frequency analysis by integration of empirical and probabilistic regional envelope curves
… Probabilistic regional envelope curves (PRECs) are an extension of the traditional empirical envelope curve approach, in which a recurrence interval is estimated for a regional envelope curve (REC). The REC is constructed for a homogeneous pooling group of sites. The estimation of this …

Graph minors and algorithms
… is a minor of another graph G, denoted by $H\ {\prec\sb{m}}\ G,$ if a graph isomorphic to H can be obtained from G by a series of vertex deletions, edge deletions, and edge contractions. Graph minors have been studied for several decades as a way of characterizing classes of graphs. Recent work …

Posttranscriptional gene silencing of p27 in primary prostate epithelial cells by small inhibitory RNA (siRNA)
… in primary diploid prostate epithelial cells (PrEC) for prolonged periods in order to create a model for further studies on its potential role in prostate cancer. In the experiments described here, sustained long term knockdown of p27 was achieved in human primary prostate cells by designing a …

Temporal Variations of delta 2 H, delta 18 O and Deuterium Excess in Atmospheric Moisture and Improvements in the CO 2 -H 2 O Equilibration Technique for 18 O/ 16 O Isotope Ratio Analysis
… and compared with the isotope composition of precipitation. The correlation between local air temperature and isotopic composition of water vapour and precipitation is nearly identical for annual, but not for monthly means. This study focuses on the deuterium excess in water vapour, d(vap), …

Upregulation of PIP3-dependent RAC Exchanger 1 (P-Rex1) Promotes Prostate Cancer Metastasis
… in normal prostate epithelial cells (PrEC) and two nonmetastatic prostate cancer cell lines (LNCaP and CWR22Rv1), but was clearly detectable in highly metastatic prostate cancer cell lines (PC3-LN4 and PC-3). Studies of human prostate tumor specimens revealed a 1.6-fold increase in …
