Dynamics of large wood in aquatic systems significantly influence physical and ecological processes in rivers. Wood mobility is notably becoming a critical issue, not only in the context of restoration, but also in terms of flooding and hazard potential. Although the number of studies focusing on instream wood has increased substantially over the last few years, physical properties of wood have rarely...
BackgroundGenome‐wide association studies (GWAS) repeatedly identified 1q23 (FCER1A), 5q31 (RAD50‐IL13 and IL4), and 12q13 (STAT6) as major susceptibility loci influencing the regulation of total serum IgE levels. As GWAS may be insufficient to capture causal variants, we performed fine‐mapping and re‐genotyping of the three loci using 1000 Genomes Project datasets.

BackgroundBoth FCER2 and FCER1A encode subunits of IgE receptors. Variants in FCER1A were previously identified as major determinants of IgE levels in genome‐wide association studies.
MethodsHere we investigated in detail whether FCER2 polymorphisms affect IgE levels alone and/or by interaction with FCER1A polymorphisms. To cover the genetic information of FCER2, 21 single‐nucleotide polymorphisms...
Modules of the ATLAS liquid argon Hadronic End-cap Calorimeter (HEC) were exposed to beams of electrons, muons and pions in the energy range 6=<E=<200GeV at the CERN SPS. A description of the HEC and of the beam test setup are given. Results on the energy response and resolution are presented and compared with simulations. The ATLAS energy resolution for jets in the end-cap region is inferred...
