HIGH-RESOLUTION REFINEMENT OF A STORM LOSS MODEL AND ESTIMATION OF RETURN PERIODS OF LOSS-INTENSIVE STORMS OVER GERMANY

High-resolution refinement of a storm loss model and estimation of return periods of loss-intensive storms over Germany

A refined model for the calculation of storm losses is presented, making use of high-resolution insurance loss records for Germany and allowing loss estimates on a spatial level of administrative districts and for single storm events.Storm losses are calculated on the basis of wind speeds from both ERA-Interim and NCEP reanalyses.The loss model rep

Chiral Supramolecular Hydrogel Loaded with Dimethyloxalyglycine to Accelerate Chronic Diabetic Wound Healing by Promoting Cell Proliferation and Angiogenesis

Chronic refractory wounds are one of the most serious complications of diabetes, and the effects of common treatments are limited.Chiral hydrogel combined with dimethyloxalyglycine Jeans (DMOG) as a dressing is a promising strategy for the treatment of chronic wounds.In this research, we have developed a DMOG-loaded supramolecular chiral amino-acid

Unveiling the mechanistic link between extracellular amyloid fibrils, mechano-signaling and YAP activation in cancer

Abstract The tumor microenvironment is a complex ecosystem that plays a critical role in cancer progression and treatment response.Recently, extracellular amyloid fibrils have emerged as novel components of the tumor microenvironment; however, their function remains elusive.In this study, we establish a direct connection between the Handheld Vacuum
