soil parent materialsBrazilMinas GeraisThe understanding of the relationships between geology, geomorphology and pedology underlies activities of soil classification and the evaluation of the pedological distribution of an area. This study was motivated by the lack of reports of this nature for the ...
These nouns all pertain to what underlies and supports. Base is used broadly in both literal and figurative contexts: the wide base of the pyramid; a party seeking to expand its power base. Basis is used in a nonphysical sense: "Healthy scepticism is the basis of all accurate observation" ...

The study found that the activity concentrations of the radionuclides 238U, 232Th and 40K in the sandstone are 32 ± 13, 29.6 ± 12.2, and 132.6 ± 86.4 Bq kg−1, respectively. These values are lower than the reported worldwide limits of 33, 45, and 412 Bq kg−1...
(Jones and Ambrose1994; Holliday et al.2008). The Brockram Formation, which consists of low-permeability deposits of Permian age (conglomerate with a silty matrix, evaporites and shale) underlies the St Bees Sandstone aquifer forming an aquitard unit (Allen et al.1997; Streetly et al.2000)....
(host driven vertical transmission) or actively through selection on the microbe to infect the next generation through the germ line. Evolution towards vertical transmission may be constrained through location (e.g., soil microbe-plant root associations have no proximity to the germ line), and ...

A collaborative culture, in which analysts engage and work together across asset classes, underlies MFS research. While both fixed-income and equity analysts study cash flows, fixed-income analysts also focus on credit risk while equity analysts focus on earnings — thereby enhancing each other’s ...

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) modulates local and widespread connectivity in dysfunctional networks. Positive results are observed in several patient populations; however, the precise mechanisms underlying treatment remain unknown. Translational DBS studi
