Voluntary torque production is unaffected by changes in local thermal sensation during normothermia and hyperthermia

Ralph Joseph Frederick Hills Gordon, Neale Anthony Tillin, Ceri Elen Diss, Christopher James Tyler

Experimental Physiology > 108 > 4 > 607 - 620

This study investigated altered local head and neck thermal sensation on maximal and rapid torque production during voluntary contractions. Nine participants completed four visits in two environmental conditions: at rectal temperatures ∼39.5°C in hot (HOT; ∼50°C, ∼39% relative humidity) and ∼37°C in thermoneutral (NEU; ∼22°C, ∼46% relative humidity) conditions. Local thermal sensation was manipulated...

Ecological and habitat preferences of diatoms in lakes of Lützow‐Holm Bay, East Antarctica

Rachel Claire Rudd, Jonathan James Tyler, John Tibby, Yukiko Tanabe, more

Freshwater Biology > 67 > 12 > 2113 - 2129

Lakes and ponds along the Antarctic coastline provide an opportunity for palaeoclimate reconstructions to complement ice core records from the interior of the continent, including via their diatom records. Diatom palaeoecological studies in remote Antarctica are partially undermined by uncertainty concerning the relative influence of climate, water quality and substrate on diatom species assemblages...

Paying for expertise: The effect of experience on insurance demand

Vaibhav Anand, James Tyler Leverty, Kenny Wunder

Journal of Risk and Insurance > 88 > 3 > 727 - 756

This paper investigates whether corporations purchase insurance for the real services that insurers provide. We examine the real‐service efficiency hypothesis in the insurance industry by exploiting within firm‐year variation in reinsurance usage and experience at the line of business level. Our results show that insurers purchase reinsurance to access reinsurers’ expertise and specialized knowledge...

Reality Tour: Adult Attendees’ Perceptions about a Community Based Drug Prevention Program

Judith E. Sturges, James Tyler Garlick

Juvenile and Family Court Journal > 69 > 4 > 59 - 72

In 2003, the Reality Tour was established by CANDLE, Inc., which is a non‐profit organization with an aim to prevent substance abuse in Butler, Pennsylvania. Demand grew for the replication of the Tour to be presented in other locations. In 2014, the Latrobe and Derry Area Reality Tour was established. The Tour is a community‐based drug prevention presentation designed to engage both parents and children...

Distribution and biogeochemical controls on net methylmercury production in Penobscot River marshes and sediment

Cynthia Gilmour, James Tyler Bell, Ally Bullock Soren, Georgia Riedel, more

Science of The Total Environment > 2018 > 640-641 > C > 555-569

The distribution of mercury and methylmercury (MeHg) in sediment, mudflats, and marsh soils of the Hg-contaminated tidal Penobscot River was investigated, along with biogeochemical controls on production. Average total Hg in surface samples (0–3 cm) ranged from 100 to 1200 ng/g; average MeHg ranged from 5 to 50 ng/g. MeHg was usually highest at or near the surface except in highly mobile mudflats...

Effect of thickness of planar nozzles on erosion depth of levee soils subjected to plunging water

Chung Rak Song, Jinwon Kim, James Tyler Kidd, Alexander Cheng, more

International Journal of Sediment Research > 2018 > 33 > 3 > 243-249

In this study, the effect of the thickness of a planar jet on the erosion depth when the jet impinges on a surface composed of cohesive soil was analytically and numerically evaluated. The results showed that the erosion depth was practically independent of the nozzle thickness for erosion depths shallower than the potential core length (i.e. the region of the jet in which the central flow velocity...

Arthroscopic Posterior Glenoid Fracture Fixation Using Knotless Suture Anchors

Jonathan A. Baxter, James Tyler, Nivander Bhamber, Magnus Arnander, more

Arthroscopy Techniques > 2017 > 6 > 5 > e1933-e1936

Shoulder instability after a posterior glenoid rim fracture is rare and potentially difficult pathology to treat. Operative techniques often involve a large dissection to view the fragments resulting in local soft tissue injury. Internal fixation is often achieved with interfragmentary screws; however, this may not be possible with small or multifragmentary fracture patterns. We describe an arthroscopic...

Antimicrobial properties of nanorods: killing bacteria via impalement

Md. Iftekhar Hossain, Jarrod Edwards, James Tyler, John Anderson, more

IET Nanobiotechnology > 2017 > 11 > 5 > 501 - 505

Silver is known to possess anti-microbial properties that are of chemical origin. It is believed that either Ag atoms bind to thiol groups in bacterial enzymes or Ag⁺ ions enter bacterial cells and denature the DNA molecule to kill bacteria. Silver nanorods, however, may kill bacteria by another mechanism: it is possible that the sharp tips of the nanorods puncture bacterial cells and kill bacteria...

First Holocene cryptotephras in mainland Australia reported from sediments at Lake Keilambete, Victoria, Australia

Rebecca Elizabeth Smith, Jonathan James Tyler, Jessica Reeves, Simon Blockley, more

Quaternary Geochronology > 2017 > 40 > C > 82-91

We report the first observations of Holocene cryptotephra deposits in lacustrine sediments from mainland Australia. All counts of cryptotephra shards are presented, but we focus on two prominent peaks of dark coloured glass shards representing distinct cryptotephras within the sediments of Lake Keilambete, Victoria, southeast Australia. These two basaltic cryptotephras, aged 4589-3826 cal BP and 7149-5897 cal...

Holocene lake development and glacial-isostatic uplift at Lake Skallen and Lake Oyako, Lützow-Holm Bay, East Antarctica: Based on biogeochemical facies and molecular signatures

Yoshinori Takano, Jonathan James Tyler, Hisaya Kojima, Yusuke Yokoyama, more

Applied Geochemistry > 2012 > 27 > 12 > 2546-2559

The paleolimnology of two lakes which were isolated as a result of the crustal uplift during the late Holocene along the Soya Coast, Lützow-Holm Bay, East Antarctica were studied. The focus was on temporal variations in the biogeochemical composition of sediment cores recovered from Lake Skallen at Skallen and Lake Oyako at Skarvsnes. Both sets of lake sediments record environmental changes associated...

The Impact of Communication Structure and Interpersonal Dependencies on Distributed Teams

Timothy La Fond, Dan Roberts, Jennifer Neville, James Tyler, more

2012 International Conference on Privacy, Security, Risk and Trust and 2012 International Confernece on Social Computing > 558 - 565

2012 International Conference on Privacy, Security, Risk and Trust (PASSAT)

In the past decade, we have witnessed an explosive growth of the Web, online communities, and social media. This has led to a substantial increase in the range and scope of electronic communication and distributed collaboration. In distributed teams, social communication is thought to be critical for creating and sustaining relationships, but there is often limited opportunity for team members to...

Practical neck cooling and time-trial running performance in a hot environment

Christopher James Tyler, Perry Wild, Caroline Sunderland

European Journal of Applied Physiology > 2010 > 110 > 5 > 1063-1074

The aim of this two-part experiment was to investigate the effect of cooling the neck on time-trial performance in hot conditions (~30°C; 50% RH). In Study A, nine participants completed a 75-min submaximal (~60% $$ \dot{V}{\text{O}}_{{ 2 {\text{max}}}} $$ ) pre-load phase followed by a 15-min self-paced time-trial (TT) on three occasions: one with a cooling collar (CC₉₀), one without a collar...

Linking to journal articles in an online teaching environment: The persistent link, DOI, and OpenURL

Marc Langston, James Tyler

The Internet and Higher Education > 2004 > 7 > 1 > 51-58

The growing availability of online journal literature and the license agreements that make such literature useable in an academic environment present educators opportunities for using journal articles in online teaching. The use of online journal articles avoids logistical challenges associated with the use of printed copies of journal articles, particularly when assembling course packs. Technological...
