TL;DR: In this article, high-spatial-frequency periodic structures on the surfaces of InP, GaP, and GaAs have been observed after multiple-pulse femtosecond laser irradiation at wavelengths in the transparency regions of the respective solids.
Abstract: High-spatial-frequency periodic structures on the surfaces of InP, GaP, and GaAs have been observed after multiple-pulse femtosecond laser irradiation at wavelengths in the transparency regions of the respective solids. The periods of the structures are substantially shorter than the wavelengths of the incident laser fields in the bulk materials. In contrast, high-frequency structures were not observed for laser photon energies above the band gaps of the target materials.

TL;DR: A new framework of FCS is presented, blending the elements of this approach into a set of ideas that have immediate clinical applicability and the implications for service providers of the move to FCS are considered.
Abstract: Family-centred service (FCS) is a popular phrase widely used to encompass a set of ideas about service delivery to children and their families. Despite the increasing adoption of the concepts of FCS, however, many clinicians may remain uncertain about exactly what FCS means. This review article has four purposes. The first section presents a brief review of the history and ideas behind FCS. Second, the authors present a new framework of FCS, blending the elements of this approach into a set of ideas that have immediate clinical applicability. The third focus of this paper is to review the research evidence that supports FCS and to point to areas where further research is needed. Finally we consider the implications for service providers of the move to FCS, and the potential uses of the FCS framework as a guide for teaching and research.

TL;DR: The South Saskatchewan River has a long term average discharge of 275 m3/sec, with flood peaks in the range of 1500 to 3800 m 3/sec as discussed by the authors, and the dominant channel bedforms are dunes, which deposit trough cross bedding.
Abstract: The South Saskatchewan River has a long term average discharge of 275 m3/sec, with flood peaks in the range of 1500 to 3800 m3/sec. South of Saskatoon, the four major types of geomorphological elements recognised are channels, slipface-bounded bars, sand flats and vegetated islands and floodplains. Major channels are 3-5 m deep, up to 200 m wide, and flow around sand flats which are 50-2000 m long, and around vegetated islands up to 1 km long. At areas of flow expansion, long straight-crested cross-channel bars form. During falling stage, a small part of the crest of the cross-channel bar may become emergent, and act as a nucleus for downstream and lateral growth of a new sand flat.
The dominant channel bedforms are dunes, which deposit trough cross bedding. Cross-channel bars deposit large sets of planar tabular cross bedding. Sand flats that grow from a nucleus on a cross-channel bar are mostly composed of smaller planar tabular sets, with some parallel lamination, trough cross-bedding, and ripple cross-lamination. A typical facies sequence related to sand flat growth would consist of in-channel trough cross-bedding, overlain by a large (1-2 m) planar tabular set (cross-channel bar), overlain in turn by a complex association mostly of small planar tabular cross-beds, trough cross-beds and ripple cross-lamination.
By contrast, a second stratigraphic sequence can be proposed, related only to channel aggradation. It would consist dominantly of trough cross-beds, decreasing in scale upward, and possible interrupted by isolated sets of planar tabular cross-bedding if a cross-channel bar formed, but failed to grow into a sand flat. During final filling of the channel, ripple cross-lamination and thin clay layers may be deposited. In the S. Saskatchewan, these sequences are a minimum of 5 m thick, and are overlain by 0.5-1 m of silty and muddy vertical accretion deposits.

TL;DR: The Canadian Cardiovascular Society Guidelines Committee and key Canadian opinion leaders believed there was a need for up to date guidelines that used the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system of evidence assessment for patients who undergo noncardiac surgery.
