Detecting gamma frequency neural activity using simultaneous multiband EEG-fMRI
(2017-06-26) - Conference itemSynchronization of gamma frequency (>35Hz) EEG activity is linked to cognitive and sensory behaviour as well as being widely cited as the closest neuronal correlate of the BOLD fMRI signal[1]. However, the majority of ... -
Detecting gamma frequency neural activity using simultaneous multiband EEG-fMRI
(2017-04) - Conference itemSynopsis (≤ 100 words): We establish a methodology for optimal combination of simultaneous EEG recording with sparse multiband fMRI that preserves high resolution, whole brain fMRI coverage with broad-band EEG signal ... -
Detecting polygenic selection in marine populations by combining population genomics and quantitative genetics approaches
(2016-12) - Journal articleHighly fecund marine species with dispersive life-history stages often display large population sizes and wide geographic distribution ranges. Consequently, they are expected to experience reduced genetic drift, efficient ... -
Detecting, assessing, and mitigating the effects of naval sonar on cetaceans
(University of St Andrews, 2016-04-14) - ThesisEffective management of the potential environmental impacts of naval sonar requires quantitative data on the behaviour and hearing physiology of cetaceans. Here, novel experimental and analytical methods were used to obtain ... -
The detection and characterisation of extrasolar planets
(University of St Andrews, 2004) - ThesisSince the discovery of 51 Pegasi b in 1995, continued observations have indirectly identified over 110 planetary objects. These Jupiter-mass objects cause their host star to "wobble" slightly about the common centre-of-mass ... -
Detection and removal of disturbance trends in tree-ring series for dendroclimatology
(2016-03) - Journal articleNonclimatic disturbance events are an integral element in the history of forests. Although the identification of the occurrence and duration of such events may help to understand environmental history and landscape change, ... -
Detection in blood of autoantibodies to tumour antigens as a case-finding method in lung cancer using the EarlyCDT®-Lung Test (ECLS) : study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(2017-03-11) - Journal articleBackground: Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer related death worldwide. The majority of cases are detected at a late stage when prognosis is poor. The EarlyCDT®-Lung Test detects autoantibodies to abnormal cell ... -
The detection of numerous magnetic separators in a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic model of solar emerging flux
(2010-12-20) - Journal itemMagnetic separators in three-dimensional (3D) magnetic fields are believed to be often associated with locations of magnetic reconnection. In this preliminary study, we investigate this relationship using data from a ... -
Detection of selective sweeps in structured populations : a comparison of recent methods
(2016-01) - Journal articleIdentifying genomic regions targeted by positive selection has been a longstanding interest of evolutionary biologists. This objective was difficult to achieve until the recent emergence of Next Generation Sequencing, which ... -
Detection of spin entanglement via spin-charge separation in crossed Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids
(2014-12-23) - Journal articleWe investigate tunneling between two spinful Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids (TLLs) realized, e.g., as two crossed nanowires or quantum Hall edge states. When injecting into each TLL one electron of opposite spin, the dc current ... -
Detection of supersonic downflows and associated heating events in the transition region above sunspots
(2014-06-27) - Journal articleInterface Region Imaging Spectrograph data allow us to study the solar transition region (TR) with an unprecedented spatial resolution of 0″33. On 2013 August 30, we observed bursts of high Doppler shifts suggesting strong ... -
Detection, size, measurement, and structural analysis limits for the 2MASS, UKIDSS-LAS, and VISTA VIKING surveys
(2013-01-01) - Journal articleThe 2MASS, UKIDSS-LAS, and VISTA VIKING surveys have all now observed the GAMA 9hr region in the Ks band. Here we compare the detection rates, photometry, basic size measurements, and single-component GALFIT structural ... -
Determinacy and learning stability of economic policy in asymmetric monetary union models
(University of St Andrews, 2010) - ThesisThis thesis examines determinacy and E-stability of economic policy in monetary union models. Monetary policy takes the form of either a contemporaneous or a forecast based interest rate rule, while fiscal policy follows ... -
The determinants of competitive advantage: a critical appraisal
(University of St Andrews, 1991) - ThesisThe thesis deals with the means whereby a firm can gain a competitive advantage over its rivals. After considering how this issue is dealt with in the management literature, the thesis focuses on two possible routes to ... -
The determinants of corporate growth
(University of St Andrews, 2010-06-23) - ThesisCorporate growth is a concept that has been widely treated in a specific way or as part of strategy theories, in definition and in econometric models and has also been studied in many different aspects and approaches. The ... -
Determinants of neighbourhood satisfaction and perception of neighbourhood reputation
(2011-04) - Journal articleIt has been suggested that the residential mobility behaviour and general well-being of residents of urban neighbourhoods are not only influenced by how residents themselves assess their neighbourhood, but also by how they ... -
Determination of operating parameters for a GaAs-based polariton laser
(2013-02-25) - Journal articleWe report on a systematic study of the phase transitions to polariton condensation (PC) and further to cavity lasing in a GaAs-based microcavity with respect to exciton-cavity detuning and lattice temperature. Using far ... -
Determination of the molecular and physiological basis of citric acid tolerance in spoilage yeast
(University of St Andrews, 2009-06-26) - ThesisThe ability of yeasts to grow and adapt under extreme environmental conditions including within the presence of weak organic acid preservatives has led to substantial economic losses through manufactured food and beverage ... -
