It covers a wide range of topics, such as predicting the impacts of wildfires on sediment transport and water quality in a mountainous region and estimating the sediment erosion due to release of ice-jams in cold region rivers.Environmental science, engineering and technologybicsscTechnology: general issuesbicsscaquatic lifebank erosionbed shearclimate change adaptationcohesive sedimentcohesive sediment transportCongo River Basincritical shear stressCuvette Centraledam area of reservoirsdepositionentrapmenterosionfine-grained sedimentflocculationfluid mudgravel bed rivergravity-driven flowice jamingresslandscape disturbancemodellingn/areservoir sedimentationriver systemssediment balancesediment pulsesediment transportsource water protectionsuspended-sediment concentrationSWATturbiditywater qualitywater supplywatershed managementEnvironmental science, engineering and technologyTechnology: general issuesKrishnappan Bommannaedt1314114Krishnappan BommannaothBOOK9910566480703321Modelling of River Flows, Sediment and Contaminants Transport3031723UNINA02574nam 2200457z- 450 991034675740332120210211(CKB)4920000000094140(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/41029(oapen)doab41029(EXLCZ)99492000000009414020202102d2018 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierApoptotic Cell Clearance in Health and DiseaseFrontiers Media SA20181 online resource (294 p.)Frontiers Research Topics2-88945-688-9 Clearance of apoptotic cells is essential for proper development, homeostasis and termination of immune responses in multicellular organisms. Thus, cellular and molecular players taking part in the sequential events of this process are of great interest. Research in the last 20 years has indicated that specific ligands and receptors take part in the attraction of immune cells toward apoptotic targets and in the interactions between apoptotic cells and professional as well as non-professional phagocytes that engulf them. Moreover, phagocytosis of apoptotic cells (efferocytosis) leads to significant phenotypic changes in the engulfing cells suggesting that it is a major fate-determining event for phagocytes. Particularly, efferocytosis has an important impact on the inflammation-resolution axis as well as embryonic development and tissue morphogenesis. Deficiencies in these processes can result in health threats, such as autoimmunity, atherosclerosis, bone loss, obesity, infertility, neurodegeneration, fibrosis and cancer. This eBook brings together 24 original research and review manuscripts that cover various aspects of apoptotic cell removal during normal development and homeostasis as well as in tumorigenesis and regenerative processes following injury.MedicinebicsscApoptosisdevelopmentEfferocytosisHomeostasisimmune-regulationneurodegenerationPhagocytesreceptor-ligand interactionstumorigenesisMedicineAmiram Arielauth1331927Kirsten LauberauthEstee KurantauthBOOK9910346757403321Apoptotic Cell Clearance in Health and Disease3040659UNINA
