    <p>Bin Diffusion Model is a bin microphysics parcel model to solve for the condensational growth of liquid aerosol particles into cloud droplets. It also calculates the homogeneous nucleation of water ice in both aqueous solution droplets and cloud drops. The model treats each liquid size bin in a novel way, treating the diffusion of water through each liquid droplet. It can therefore answer questions about the importance of ultra viscous aerosol on cloud formation processes. </p> <p>This version of the code enables the calculation of homogeneous nucleation of a distribution of aerosol particles with each bin, solving a separate radially symmetric Fickian diffusion equation. Diffusion coefficients can either be constant or can be calculated according to published values that depend on water mole fraction.

    The acid tolerance response of enteropathogenic Salmonella and Escherichia coli strains : A proteomic characterisation and novel links with motility and virulence

    No full text
    This thesis concentrates on elucidating the mechanisms involved in the adaptation of exponentially growing EPEC and Salmonellai to inorganic and weak organic acids. An understanding of these mechanisms, collectively known as the acid tolerance response (ATR) is of relevance to both the food production and medicinal industries.One of the most striking findings is that flagellin, the major structural component of the bacterial flagellum, is down-regulated at pH 3.0 in acid adapted Salmonella. Further studies using reporter gene fusions indicate that the entire flagellar apparatus is transcriptionally repressed under these conditions. PhoPQ is found to mediate this mechanism, which results in a loss of cell motility, by acting directly or indirectly at the level of the flagellar fhCD master operon.One of the most striking findings is that flagellin, the major structural component of the bacterial flagellum, is down-regulated at pH 3.0 in acid adapted Salmonella. Further studies using reporter gene fusions indicate that the entire flagellar apparatus is transcriptionally repressed under these conditions. PhoPQ is found to mediate this mechanism, which results in a loss of cell motility, by acting directly or indirectly at the level of the flagellar flhCD master operon.Additional links between other virulence associated mechanisms and the ATR are also investigated. 2 ATR proteins regulated by PhoPQ are expressed similarly during the oxidative stress response. Correspondingly, survival assays indicate that an acid induced cross protection of oxidative stress in Salmonella is mediated by this global regulator. A further two regulators of pathogenesis (the BipA GTPase and the EAF plasmid) are characterised as negative regulators of the ATR in certain EPEC strains. It is concluded that ATR mechanisms are variable between different species and strains.Based on these results, it is proposed that intimate connections exist between the regulation of the ATR and virulence associated processes, such as motility, that are essential for pathogenesis. The full elucidation of the mechanisms behind the regulation and implementation of these systems may pave the way for future treatments of food-borne disease. The global regulatory molecules involved constitute putative drug targets.</p

    The British ‘Bluesman’ Paul Oliver and the Nature of Transatlantic Blues Scholarship

    No full text
    Recent revisionist studies have argued that much of what is known about music known as the blues’ has been 'invented' by the writing of enthusiasts far removed from the African American culture that created the music. Elijah Wald and Marybeth Hamilton in particular have attempted to sift through the clouds of romanticism, and tried to unveil more empirical histories that were previously obscured by the fallacious genre distinctions conjured up during the 1960s blues revival. While this revisionist scholarship has shed light on some previously ignored historical facts, writers have tended to concentrate on the romanticism of blues writing strictly from an American perspective, failing to acknowledge the genesis and influence of transatlantic scholarship, and therefore ignoring the work of the most prolific and influential blues scholar of the twentieth century, British writer Paul Oliver. By examining the core of Oliver’s research and writing during the 1950s and 1960s, this study aims to place Oliver in his rightful place at the centre of blues historiography. His scholarship allows a more detailed appreciation of the manner in which the blues was studied, through lyrics, recordings, oral histories, photography and African American literature. These historical sources were interpreted in accordance with the author’s attitudes to the commercial popular music, which allowed the ‘reconstruction’ of an African American ‘folk’ culture in which the blues became the antithesis of pop. Importantly, this study seeks to transcend dominant discourses of national cultural ownership or ethnocentrism, and demonstrate that representations of African American music and culture were constructed within a transatlantic context. The blues is music with roots in the African American experience within the United States; however, as Paul Oliver’s writing shows, its reception and representation were not limited by the same national, cultural or racial boundaries
