A Coupled-Mode Shallow-Water Model for Tidal Analysis: Internal Tide Reflection and Refraction by the Gulf Stream
(American Meteorological Society, 2016-12)A hydrostatic, coupled-mode, shallow-water model (CSW) is described and used to diagnose and simulate tidal dynamics in the greater Mid-Atlantic Bight region. The reduced-physics model incorporates realistic stratification ... -
Coupling among growth rate response, metabolic cycle, and cell division cycle in yeast
(American Society for Cell Biology, 2011-06)We studied the steady-state responses to changes in growth rate of yeast when ethanol is the sole source of carbon and energy. Analysis of these data, together with data from studies where glucose was the carbon source, ... -
Coupling and stacking order of ReS[subscript 2] atomic layers revealed by ultralow-frequency Raman spectroscopy
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2016-02)We investigate the ultralow-frequency Raman response of atomically thin ReS[subscript 2], a special type of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors with unique distorted 1T structure. Bilayer and few-layer ReS[subscript 2] ... -
Coupling between surface ozone and leaf area index in a chemical transport model: strength of feedback and implications for ozone air quality and vegetation health
(Copernicus GmbH, 2018-10)Tropospheric ozone is an air pollutant that substantially harms vegetation and is also strongly dependent on various vegetation-mediated processes. The interdependence between ozone and vegetation may constitute feedback ... -

Coupling between the center of mass and relative degrees of freedom in a relativistic quantum composite and applications
(International Society of Condensed Matter Nuclear Scientists (ISCMNS), 2017)If we consider the nucleus as a relativistic composite, then we are able to derive from a many-particle Dirac model a coupling between the center of mass motion and internal nuclear degrees of freedom. This interaction can ... -
Coupling carboxylic acid reductase to inorganic pyrophosphatase enhances cell-free in vitro aldehyde biosynthesis
(Elsevier BV, 2016)© 2015 Elsevier B.V. Carboxylic acid reductases (CARs) have been harnessed in metabolic pathways to produce aldehydes in engineered organisms. However, desired aldehyde products inhibit cell growth and limit product titers ... -
Coupling coefficients of su q (1,1) and multivariate q -Racah polynomials
(Elsevier, 2017-12)Gasper & Rahman's multivariate q -Racah polynomials are shown to arise as connection coefficients between families of multivariate q -Hahn or q -Jacobi polynomials. The families of q -Hahn polynomials are constructed as ... -
Coupling Constant Corrections in a Holographic Model of Heavy Ion Collisions
(American Physical Society, 2017-07)We initiate a holographic study of coupling-dependent heavy ion collisions by analyzing, for the first time, the effects of leading-order, inverse coupling constant corrections. In the dual description, this amounts to ... -
Coupling constant corrections in a holographic model of heavy ion collisions with nonzero baryon number density
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-12)Sufficiently energetic collisions of heavy ions result in the formation of a droplet of a strongly coupled liquid state of QCD matter known as quark-gluon plasma. By using gauge-gravity duality (holography), a model of a ... -
Coupling dry deposition to vegetation phenology in the Community Earth System Model: Implications for the simulation of surface O[subscript 3]
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2014-04)Dry deposition is an important removal process controlling surface ozone. We examine the representation of this ozone loss mechanism in the Community Earth System Model. We first correct the dry deposition parameterization ... -
The coupling effect of gas-phase chemistry and surface reactions on oxygen permeation and fuel conversion in ITM reactors
(Elsevier, 2015-04)The effect of the coupling between heterogeneous catalytic reactions supported by an ion transport membrane (ITM) and gas-phase chemistry on fuel conversion and oxygen permeation in ITM reactors is examined. In ITM reactors, ... -
Coupling efficiency of monolithic, waveguide-integrated Si photodetectors
(American Institute of Physics, 2009-02)A waveguide-integrated photodetector provides a small-footprint, low-capacitance design that overcomes the bandwidth-efficiency trade-off problem of free space optics. High performance silicon devices are critical to the ... -
Coupling human mobility and social ties
(Royal Society, 2015-02)Studies using massive, passively collected data from communication technologies have revealed many ubiquitous aspects of social networks, helping us understand and model social media, information diffusion and organizational ... -
Coupling immunity and programmed cell suicide in prokaryotes: Life-or-death choices
(Wiley Blackwell, 2016-12)Host-pathogen arms race is a universal, central aspect of the evolution of life. Most organisms evolved several distinct yet interacting strategies of anti-pathogen defense including resistance to parasite invasion, innate ... -
