A 1000-year reconstruction of summer precipitation from Ireland: Calibration of a peat-based palaeoclimate record
(2012)Calibration of proxy climate records is well-established for annually resolved proxies such as tree rings, but it has not been attempted for non-annually resolved proxies such as those from peatland surface wetness records. ... -
Ab initio study of electron transport in dry poly(G)-poly(C) A-DNA strands
(2010)The bias-dependent transport properties of short poly (G)-poly(C) A-DNA strands attached to Au electrodes are investigated with first-principles electronic-transport methods. By using the nonequilibrium Green's function ... -
