Stroke is the main cause of disability among neurological diseases. There are questions of the accuracy of topical diagnosis and rehabilitation prognosis in clinical practice. Answers to these questions may be given by an approach to the study of the nervous system as a dynamic network consisting of a set of brain regions with anatomical and functional connections between them.

Here we quantified PW volumes relative to water demand in different sectors and PW quality relative to treatment and reuse options for the major U.S.

The rapid growth in U.S. unconventional oil and gas has made energy more available and affordable globally but brought environmental concerns, especially related to water.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFDirectional well drilling and hydraulic fracturing has enabled energy production from previously inaccessible resources, but caused vegetation conversion and landscape fragmentation, often in relatively undisturbed habitats. We improve forecasts of future ecological impacts from unconventional oil and gas play developments using a new, more spatially-explicit approach. We applied an energy production outlook model, which used geologic and economic data from thousands of wells and three oil price scenarios, to map future drilling patterns and evaluate the spatial distribution of vegetation conversion and habitat impacts.
