Prioritizing river basins for intensive monitoring and assessment by the US Geological Survey.

The US Geological Survey (USGS) is currently (2020) integrating its water science programs to better address the nation's greatest water resource challenges now and into the future. This integration will rely, in part, on data from 10 or more intensively monitored river basins from across the USA. A team of USGS scientists was convened to develop a systematic, quantitative approach to prioritize candidate basins for this monitoring investment to ensure that, as a group, the 10 basins will support the assessment and forecasting objectives of the major USGS water science programs.

Innovations in dental implant design for current therapy.

The use of osseointegrated dental implants has gained momentum, mainly in the last 20 years. Research and development in the field of implantology are constantly focusing on implant redesign to continue to try and improve implant success. The current aim of implant design is to address situations prone to failure, such as cases of low bone quality or cases of concomitant systemic diseases that compromise healing.

Maxillary sinus septa: a cadaveric study.

Purpose: The goal of this study was to investigate the incidence, location, and height of antral septa and to offer the clinician, through an accurate investigation of the anatomy of the maxillary sinus region, the tools to carry out sinus-lift procedures under safe conditions.

Materials And Methods: The study consisted of 60 sinuses from 30 human cadavers with an age range of 59 to 90 years. Only septa measuring 3.
