a, Circadian phase shift as assessed by a shift in DLMO from evening 1 to evening 2. Analyses yielded inconclusive evidence against the hypothesis of a condition difference (for details, see main text). The lower and upper hinges of the boxplots correspond to the 25% and 75% quartiles; ...
Randomized controlled trials are the gold standard for measuring causal effects. However, they are often not always feasible, and causal treatment effects
Scientists have studied the effects of electromagnetic fields associated with high voltage power lines upon people whose homes are located within 300 yards of the lines. They have compared the growth rate of children who live near the lines with the growth rate of children who live elsewhere. Bec...
of many equal-sized “cells.” Each cell may neatly correspond to some physical process (such assummernear-surfaceairtemperature) or other variable (such as land-use type), and it may be assigned a relatively straightforward value. So-called “sub-grid-scale” processes, such as those of ...

CP (current policy) and MFR (maximum feasible reduction) scenarios assume near-constant emissions or the application of the best available technologies, respectively. Adapted from Zhang et al.

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-
Places with permafrost have nearly the same amount of precipitation as a desert - less than ten inches a year. The permafrost is supposed to hold that moisture up near the surface so that in the spring when the top several inches thaws, it can provide a fresh water wetlands habitat for bi...
