Figure 6 (a) s lwp determined within 100 m height intervals for subtropical stratocumulus, (b) precipitating clouds only, (c) intermittently precipitating clouds, and (d) non-precipitating clouds. S lwp was obtained from bivariate linear regression of the ln LWP surfaces shown in Fig. 4a–d within each height interval, respectively. Only statistically significant results at the 95 % confidence level are shown. The probability density function (PDF) of the subtropical cloud climatology across the height bins is superimposed. The patient, at that time an 11-year-old autistic (Kanner's autism) and mentally retarded male youth with infantile cerebral palsy, was referred for treatment of SIB to the out-patient unit of the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry of Cologne University Hospital. In the first years of his life occasional complex partial and generalized epileptic seizures occurred which were abolished completely by anti-epileptic medication. In 1997, the Chicago Tribune mistakenly reported that Deep Blue had been sold to United Airlines, a confusion based upon its physical resemblance to IBM's mainstream RS6000/SP2 systems. [13]

The permit to retrospectively analyze and publish our data has been obtained from our IRB on our demand in a late stage of follow-up.King, Daniel (1997). Kasparov v. Deeper Blue: The Ultimate Man v. Machine Challenge. Batsford. ISBN 978-0-7134-8322-2. Sub-nuclei of the amygdaloid complex and especially their intrinsic GABA-ergic and glutamatergic systems have recently spurred interest in the field of autism-research ( Rubenstein and Merzenich, 2003; State, 2010). Plausible hypotheses have been established, linking pathological bioelectrical activity in amygdaloid circuits with some of the most predominant features of the autistic spectrum ( Bachevalier, 1994, 2006; Baron-Cohen et al., 2000; Amaral et al., 2003 as reviewed by Schumann et al., 2006; Markram et al., 2008; Markram and Markram, 2010).

Retrieved 11 January 2022. The adiabatic LWP (LWP ad) scales with cloud depth ( H c) as LWP ad ∝ H c 2 , where H c = H BL - H b and H b denotes cloud base. Based on this relationship, we regress ln LWP against ln H BL to identify the exponent of the LWP– H BL relationship (Fig. 3b). Meanwhile, a simple linear regression is obtained for all other cloud climatologies (Fig. 3a, d, e). To understand the relative sensitivity amongst cloud properties to changes in H BL, the slopes obtained by linear regression in the physical, as opposed to logarithmic space, are scaled by the climatological mean (Table 1).

The improvement of core symptoms of autism by stimulation of the BL amygdala supports hypotheses ascribing the amygdala a dominant role in the pathogenesis of autism ( Baron-Cohen et al., 2000; Amaral et al., 2003 as reviewed by Bachevalier, 1994; Schumann et al., 2006; Markram et al., 2008; Markram and Markram, 2010). We cannot exclude, however, that these improvements might partly or even totally be due to psychosocial alterations, caused by reducing SIB and/or pathological anxiety through DBS.Levy, David; Newborn, Monty (1991). How Computers Play Chess. Computer Science Press. ISBN 978-0-7167-8121-9. DBS in the BL amygdala was effective and did not evoke any side-effects, thus having the potential for treatment of selected patients with severe Kanner's autism and related SIB. After having received informed consent by both parents as well as a permit by the ethical committee (IRB) of the University of Cologne, surgery was performed 10/23/2009 and DBS initiated. In addition to DBS, pharmacological treatment with Aripiprazole ® at 20 mg/day was continued over the first year of follow-up and gradually reduced thereafter. Ethical Implications LWP increases more rapidly with H BL under dry FT and non-stable lower tropospheric conditions (Table 1 columns 2–4). This behaviour is consistent with cloud-scale observations ( Eastman and Wood, 2018), simulations ( Bretherton et al., 2013), and mixed-layer theory ( Dal Gesso et al., 2014). Under low-RH FT conditions, cloud-top cooling and cloud-top-generated mixing are more effective. Therefore, a deeper and moister mixed layer associated with larger LWP can be maintained. Thus, the reinforcement of the cloud through stronger radiative cooling has a larger impact on LWP, than the increased drying through entrainment under low-RH FT conditions. Similarly, the weaker buoyancy jump across the inversion under non-stable lower troposphere conditions likely induces less warming in the sub-cloud layer as the BL deepens, which corresponds to a weaker upward shift of the cloud base.
