Evening exposure to short-wavelength light can affect the circadian clock, sleep and alertness. Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells expressing melanopsin are thought to be the primary drivers of these effects. Whether colour-sensitive con
Transcranial electric stimulation is a non-invasive tool that can influence brain activity; however, the parameters necessary to affect local circuits in vivo remain to be explored. Here, we report that in rodents and human cadaver brains, ~75% of scalp-
The extent to which humans have polluted environmental reservoirs over centuries or millennia is often expressed in terms of enrichment factors. Natural archives such as lake and peat sediments and ice cores have been used to estimate Hg enrichment in deposition, and by inference in the atmosphere....

indirectly, of substances or energy into the marine environment (including estuaries) resulting in such deleterious effects as harm to living resources, hazards to human health, hindrance to marine activities, including fishing, impairment of quality for use of sea water and reduction of amenities."...
Several genetic variants for daytime napping were located in or near genes with known effects on sleep-wake regulation. Thus, to gain insights into putative causal variants driving daytime napping and sleep-wake biology, we integrated results from functional annotation, fine-mapping, multi-trait, and...
There has been a number of systematic reviews over the past 10 years assessing the impact of AAI on the health and wellbeing of older people in general [16–18]. Some have focused specifically on people living with dementia or cognitive impairment [19, 20] or have limited the review ...

To get these numbers, I went to the KNMI climate explorer and pulled the UAH satellite near-surface data for the Amazon and nearby oceans. I know some folks have problems with satellite because they are only near-surface, but 30 years of history has shown that this data comes very close ...
