Assessing river biotic condition at a continental scale: a European approach using functional metrics and fish assemblages (2006)
Journal Article
Pont, D., Hugueny, B., Beier, U., Goffaux, D., Melcher, A., Noble, R., …Schmutz, S. (2006). Assessing river biotic condition at a continental scale: a European approach using functional metrics and fish assemblages. The journal of applied ecology, 43(1), 70-80. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2664.2005.01126.x

1. The need for sensitive biological measures of aquatic ecosystem integrity applicable at large spatial scales has been highlighted by the implementation of the European Water Framework Directive. Using fish communities as indicators of habitat qual... Read More about Assessing river biotic condition at a continental scale: a European approach using functional metrics and fish assemblages.

Prevalence and causes of blindness and low vision in southern Sudan (2006)
Journal Article
Ngondi, J., Ole-Sempele, F., Onsarigo, A., Matende, I., Baba, S., Reacher, M., …Emerson, P. M. (2006). Prevalence and causes of blindness and low vision in southern Sudan. PLoS Medicine, 3(12), 2416-2423. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed.0030477

Background: Blindness and low vision are thought to be common in southern Sudan. However, the magnitude and geographical distribution are largely unknown. We aimed to estimate the prevalence of blindness and low vision, identify the main causes of bl... Read More about Prevalence and causes of blindness and low vision in southern Sudan.

Winds of colonisation: The meteorological contours of Spain's imperium in the Pacific 1521-1898 (2006)
Journal Article
Bankoff, G. (2006). Winds of colonisation: The meteorological contours of Spain's imperium in the Pacific 1521-1898. Environment and History, 12(1), 65-88. https://doi.org/10.3197/096734006776026827

This paper examines the relationship between prevailing weather systems and colonialism in the context of Spanish possessions in the Pacific from Magellan till the end of the nineteenth century. It argues that any historical appreciation of Hispanic... Read More about Winds of colonisation: The meteorological contours of Spain's imperium in the Pacific 1521-1898.

Screening of metal oxide catalysts for carbon nanotubes and hydrogen production via catalytic decomposition of methane (2006)
Journal Article
Zein, S. H., Mohamed, A. R., & Chai, S. P. (2006). Screening of metal oxide catalysts for carbon nanotubes and hydrogen production via catalytic decomposition of methane. Studies in surface science and catalysis, 159, 725-728. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0167-2991%2806%2981699-X

A number of catalysts prepared from transition metals such as copper (Cu), iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co) and manganese (Mn) on TiO 2 support were tested for the decomposition of methane into hydrogen and carbon. These catalysts were used in the... Read More about Screening of metal oxide catalysts for carbon nanotubes and hydrogen production via catalytic decomposition of methane.

Fission yeast Dss1 associates with the proteasome and is required for efficient ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis (2006)
Journal Article
Jossé, L., Harley, M. E., Monteiro dos Santos Pires, I., & Hughes, D. A. (2006). Fission yeast Dss1 associates with the proteasome and is required for efficient ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis. Biochemical Journal, 393(1), 303-309. https://doi.org/10.1042/BJ20051238

Human DSS1 associates with BRCA2, a tumour suppressor protein required for efficient recombinational DNA repair, but the biochemical function of DSS1 is not known. Orthologues of DSS1 are found in organisms such as budding yeast and fission yeast tha...
