REMOTELY SENSED SPECTRAL VARIABILITY PREDICTS REEF FISH DIVERSITY

Remotely sensed spectral variability predicts reef fish diversity

In terrestrial landscapes, the spectral variability hypothesis (SVH) enables estimation of species diversity from satellite data, thereby allowing biodiversity assessments to be upscaled.Whether the SVH works in the marine realm is an open question.To answer it, we tested the ability of this hypothesis to retrieve coral reef fish biodiversity from

Coronary atherosclerosis in sudden cardiac death: An autopsy study

Background: The incidence of ischemic heart disease (IHD) has markedly increased in India over the past few years.Considering the variations in racial, dietary and lifestyle patterns in our population, it is essential to study the biology of coronary atherosclerosis in our patients.Vulnerable plaques have a large number of foam cells, extracellular
