Study: Living coral reefs provide better protection from tsunami waves

Healthy coral reefs provide their adjacent coasts with substantially more protection from destructive tsunami waves than do unhealthy or dead reefs, a Princeton University study suggests. Initially spurred by the tsunami that devastated the coastlines of the Indian Ocean two years ago, a team of scientists developed the first-ever computer model of a tsunami strike against a reef-bounded...

Slow brain waves play key role in coordinating complex activity

While it is widely accepted that the output of nerve cells carries information between regions of the brain, it's a big mystery how widely separated regions of the cortex involving billions of cells are linked together to coordinate complex activity. A new study by neuroscientists at the University of California, Berkeley, and neurosurgeons and neurologists at UC San Francisco (UCSF) is be...

T-waves to sweep over imaging technology

The 230th national meeting of the American Chemical Society in Washington will focus on T-rays that offer the potential to see biological agents through a sealed envelope and detect tumors without harmful radiation. T-rays are opening the door to a wide variety of // applications and are based on the terahertz (THz) region of the electromagnetic spectrum -- defined by frequencies from...

Heat Avoidance Advice Insufficient During Heat Waves

The passive dissemination of advice on heat avoidance is insufficient for health protection during a heat wave, and vulnerable people need to be actively identified and cared// for, argues a public health expert in this week’s BMJ. This summer Europe has again been affected by a major heat wave, writes Sari Kovats of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. The UK has recen...

Slow brain waves integral in coordination of complex activity

Berkeley – It is well known that the output of nerve cells is the messenger of information between regions of the brain, //yet it is still unclear about how widely separated regions of the cortex involving billions of cells come together to assist a complex activity. A new study by neuroscientists at the University of California, Berkeley, and neurosurgeons and neurologists at UC San Fran...

Global Warming Spurring Ocean Waves Speed

Global warming is speeding up ocean waves, a new study by Canadian researchers from the University of Victoria in British Columbia, has found. Geophysicists predict that as the ocean surface warms, these so-called planetary waves should speed up. To test this theory, John Fyfe and Oleg Saenko modelled the changes to ocean wave patterns over the 20th and 21st centuries...

WaveScan Wavefront System

Description:The WaveScan WaveFront System is an ophthalmic diagnostic instrument that measures the refractive error and wavefront aberrations of the human eye using a Hartmann-Shack wavefront sensor. The measurements can be used to determine regular (sphero-cylindrical) refractive errors and irregularities (aberrations) that cause decreased or blurry vision in the human eye. The WaveScan software uses the in...
