COMPARISON OF EISCAT AND IONOSONDE ELECTRON DENSITIES: APPLICATION TO A GROUND-BASED IONOSPHERIC SEGMENT OF A SPACE WEATHER PROGRAMME

Comparison of EISCAT and ionosonde electron densities: application to a ground-based ionospheric segment of a space weather programme

Space weather applications require real-time data and wide area observations from both ground- and space-based instrumentation.From space, the global navigation satellite system - GPS - is an important tool.From the ground the incoherent scatter (IS) radar technique permits a direct measurement up to the topside region, while ionosondes give good m

Elimination testing with adapted scoring reduces guessing and anxiety in multiple-choice assessments, but does not increase grade average in comparison with negative marking.

BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESES:This study is the first to offer an in-depth comparison of elimination testing with the scoring rule of Arnold & Arnold (hereafter referred to as elimination testing with adapted scoring) and negative marking.As such, this study is motivated by the search for an alternative for negative marking that still discourages guess

TREATMENT OF SICKLE CELL ANEMIA

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder prevalent in many areas of the world including Africa, Middle East and parts of India.It is characterized by repetitive episodes of vaso- occlusive (VOC) process, leading to recurrent painful episodes, hemolytic anemia and predisposition to infection.Although VOC is a leading manifestation of SCD,
