Mixed siliciclastic-carbonate-evaporite sedimentation in an arid eolian landscape: The Khor Al Adaid tide-dominated coastal embayment, Qatar by John M., Rivers

“…Associated flow expansion into less confined areas results in deposition of the eolian-derived sands as flood-tidal deltas, one in the Outer, and two in the Inner Lagoon. A weakly-developed ebb-tidal delta occurs where the Entrance Channel debouches into the Arabian Gulf. …”

The expression of bile acid Receptor TGR5 in Adipose Tissue in Diet-induced obesity mice by Ahmed, Sumaya

“…There was significant downregulation of TGR5 gene expression level in obese (DIO) mice and remarkable upregulation of TGR5 gene expression after successful weight loss in DIO mice treated with SFN in time dependent manner at 1 weeks and 4 weeks of ip applications. In conclusion, obesity is associated with decrease in expression of TGR5 in different fat depots and treatment with anti-obesity drug (Sulforaphane) causes stepwise upregulation of TGR5 gene expression in epididymal white adipose tissue parallel stepwise decrease in body weight. …”

Active Power Filtering Solution for Improving Power Quality in Cold Ironed Electric Ships by Rahman, Syed

“…However, there are some concerns with the ability to charge batteries during long voyages and the weight addition that large batteries would bring. One way to reduce GHG emissions in port is by cold ironing a ship or plugging in a ship to an onshore power source instead of using onboard diesel generators when ships are at port. …”
