A Climatology of Tropical Anvil and Its Relationship to the Large-Scale Circulation
… uses multiple tools to investigate tropical anvil, i.e., thick, non-precipitating cloud associated with deep convection with the main objectives to provide a climatology of tropics-wide anvil properties and a better understanding of anvil formation, and to provide a more realistic assessment …

Hydrogenation of monolayer graphene in the diamond anvil cell and supercritical phenomena in methane
… under high pressure (2.6 – 6.5 GPa) in a diamond anvil cell. The hydrogen content of functionalised samples can be estimated by observing the Raman spectrum and such analysis suggests that the diamond anvil cell method currently hydrogenates samples to an extent that is competitive with existing …

Paleoenvironments of the Eocene Green River Formation (Laney Member) in the Anvil Wash area, Southwestern Wyoming
<p>The study of abundant conchostracans in the Laney Member of the Green River Formation, Wyoming, has contributed to the resolution of the controversy over the depositional environment of finely laminated sediments. Conchostracans that typically live in ephemeral pools, pulmonate gastropods that …

Proposed testing method for foam padding
… current standard for testing is to use a steel anvil backing for the padding, create an impact and record the parameters of the collision. The standardized method of testing with a steel anvil backing may not truly depict which foam or padding is actually the most protective, and this project …

Novel reconstruction method after laparoscopic total gastrectomy : Intra-Corporeal Esophagojejunostomy with Endoloop(ICEE)
… the esophagojejunal anastomosis, especially anvil-insertion. Various reconstruction methods have been reported, but optimal method has not been established. Based upon our experience of laparoscopic total gastrectomy, we developed very simple and safe esophagojejunal anastomosis method and we …

Sorption of organic compounds on oil shale materials and sorption of selected chemicals on a Western soil
The sorption capacity of a raw shale (Anvil Points), three spent shales, (Antrim, Oxy 6, and Run 16), and a western soil for three organic compounds (2-Hydroxynaphthalene, 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydroquinoline, and 2,3,5-Trimethylphenol) was evaluated by batch and column sorption studies. In addition, the …
