Low, nearly continuous terraces of similar age are present along streams in drainage basins that range in size from Drift Creek (190 km2) to the Umpqua River (11,800 km2) in the Oregon Coast Range. Radiocarbon ages from near the bose of fluvial sediments underlying these terraces are clustered at about 9000-11,000 14C yr B.P. Beveled bedrock surfaces (straths) that underlie the fluvial sediments are 1-8 m above summer stream levels and are present along most of the nontidal reaches of the rivers that we studied. Where exposed, the bedrock straths are overlain by 2-11 m of fluvial sediment that consists of a bottom-stratum (channel) facies of sandy pebble-cobble gravel and a top-stratum (overbank) facies of sandy silt or silt. Eight radiocarbon ages from the fluvial sediments allow correlation of the lowest continuous terrace over a wide area and thus indicate that a regional aggradation episode occurred in Coast Range drainage basins during the Pleistocene-Holocene transition. The cause of such widespread aggradation is unknown but may be related to climate-induced changes in the frequency of evacuation of colluvium from hollows, which are common in all drainage basins in the region.

Significant new opportunities for astrophysics and cosmology have been identified at low radio frequencies. The Murchison Widefield Array is the first telescope in the southern hemisphere designed specifically to explore the low-frequency astronomical sky between 80 and 300 MHz with arcminute angular resolution and high survey efficiency. The telescope will enable new advances along four key science themes, including searching for redshifted 21-cm emission from the EoR in the early Universe; Galactic and extragalactic all-sky southern hemisphere surveys; time-domain astrophysics; and solar, heliospheric, and ionospheric science and space weather. The Murchison Widefield Array is located in Western Australia at the site of the planned Square Kilometre Array (SKA) low-band telescope and is the only low-frequency SKA precursor facility. In this paper, we review the performance properties of the Murchison Widefield Array and describe its primary scientific objectives.

There are very few studies investigating remediation of event-based prospective memory (EB-PM) impairments following traumatic brain injury (TBI). To address this, we used 2 levels of motivational enhancement (dollars vs. pennies) to improve EB-PM in children with moderate to severe TBI in the subacute recovery phase. Children with orthopedic injuries (OI; n = 61), moderate (n = 28), or severe (n = 30) TBI were compared. Significant effects included Group × Motivation Condition (F(2, 115) = 3.73, p < .03). The OI (p < .002) and moderate TBI (p < .03) groups performed significantly better under the high- versus low-incentive condition; however, the severe TBI group failed to demonstrate improvement (p = .38). EB-PM performance was better in adolescents compared to younger children (p < .02). These results suggest that EB-PM can be significantly improved in the subacute phase with this level of monetary incentives in children with moderate, but not severe, TBI. Other strategies to improve EB-PM in these children at a similar point in recovery remain to be identified and evaluated. (JINS, 2010, 16, 335–341.)

The aim of this paper is to highlight the importance of the sleep–wake cycle in children and adolescents with bipolar disorder. After presenting an overview of the measurement and function of human sleep, we describe changes in sleep and circadian functioning across the life cycle. We then review evidence that, in adults, sleep and/or circadian rhythms are of considerable influence in the multifactorial causal chain implicated in relapse in bipolar disorder, discussing relevant mechanisms. The latter include abnormalities in the amount and timing of sleep, the role of social zeitgebers, and the importance of sleep in regulating emotional responses and mood. We next present preliminary data indicating considerable sleep disturbance among children and adolescents with bipolar disorder. Given the considerable sleep disturbance evident among children and adolescents with bipolar disorder along with a key role for sleep in emotion regulation and learning, we conclude that sleep among children and adolescents with bipolar disorder is a critical domain for future research. An agenda for future research is presented that includes descriptive studies, investigations of causality, and treatment development research.

A novel mechanism for the very first step in polypeptide elongation on the ribosome has recently been proposed by Simonson and Lake (2002). According to their transorientation hypothesis, the incoming aminoacyl-transfer RNA (aa-tRNA) initially binds to the messenger RNA (mRNA) with the anticodon stacked on the 5′ side of the anticodon loop; then, following GTP hydrolysis, the tRNA swings into the A-site by switching from the 5′-stacked conformation to the classic 3′-stacked geometry while maintaining Watson–Crick base pairing with the mRNA. There are several serious problems with this proposal.

Analyzing a single data set using multiple RNA informatics programs often requires a file format conversion between each pair of programs, significantly hampering productivity. To facilitate the interoperation of these programs, we propose a syntax to exchange basic RNA molecular information. This RNAML syntax allows for the storage and the exchange of information about RNA sequence and secondary and tertiary structures. The syntax permits the description of higher level information about the data including, but not restricted to, base pairs, base triples, and pseudoknots. A class-oriented approach allows us to represent data common to a given set of RNA molecules, such as a sequence alignment and a consensus secondary structure. Documentation about experiments and computations, as well as references to journals and external databases, are included in the syntax. The chief challenge in creating such a syntax was to determine the appropriate scope of usage and to ensure extensibility as new needs will arise. The syntax complies with the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) recommendations, a widely accepted standard for syntax specifications. In addition to the various generic packages that exist to read and interpret XML formats, an XML processor was developed and put in the open-source MC-Core library for nucleic acid and protein structure computer manipulation.

Summary
DISCUSSION OUTLINE: DESCRIPTIVE/PRESCRIPTIVE/NORMATIVE INTERACTIONS IN MEDICAL DECISION MAKING
Issues relating to values and preferences
Valued consequences that are typically reflected in formal models of medical decision making include the following:
survival (length of life)
quality of life
symptoms
physical function
social function
Are preferences regarding these attributes fixed or labile? How do they change with age, physical status, mental status, interactions with physicians? Prescriptively or normatively, how does one deal with the existence of “multiple selves”? Is the prescriptive solution more complicated than just trying to assess the uncertainty about future preferences, and then take expectations across all possible future utility functions? If perfectly or imperfectly knowable, should future preferences substitute for present preferences in decisions with future consequences?
Examples: labor and anesthesia (Christensen–Szalanski)
smoking and addictive behaviors
myopia, ignorance, or uncertainty about old age
euthanasia (Schelling)
Are some preference functions normatively “better” than others? When is it appropriate for the physician to intervene to try to change patients' preferences?
What are the ethical implications for informed consent?
Example: a couple's desire to have a baby at home, under the care of a midwife
Issues in assessing utilities for health outcomes: Assuming that preferences are stable and measurable, what is the best way to measure them? While proper von Neumann–Morgenstern utility functions may be the prescriptive goal, are there other means to that end that are more reliable or acceptable than using lottery techniques, e.g., category scaling, magnitude estimation?

Summary
Introduction
The biological importance of large scale intramolecular motions is obvious. Such motions are an essential part of protein folding, the binding of ligands by proteins, and allosteric effects in enzymes. They are important in a variety of interactions between macromolecules, including the aggregation of antibodies (Yguerabide, Epstein & Stryer, 1970; Hanson, Yguerabide & Schumaker, 1985), the formation of the protein coat of viruses (Harrison, 1978), muscle contraction (Huxley, 1969; Harrington, 1971; Harvey & Cheung, 1982; Eisenberg & Hill, 1985), and the packaging of DNA in the nucleosome (Olins & Olins, 1974; Kornberg, 1974; Levitt, 1978; Sussman & Trifonov, 1978). They may be coupled to local intramolecular motions of the kind described in chapter 6, for example in the repuckering of sugars accompanying the transitions between the A, B and Z conformations in DNA, or in the formation of the environments necessary for some local structural transitions.
Motions that involve most or all of the atoms in a macromolecule occur over a wide range of time scales. The fastest of these motions are small amplitude vibrations whose characteristic times in the absence of solvent (determined from normal mode calculations) may range up to 10 ps. When the effects of solvent are included, the time scale can increase substantially, because the motions are no longer free, undamped oscillations. The time scale will depend on such factors as the masses of the molecular fragments, the elastic force opposing the motion, the friction due to the solvent, and the relative magnitudes of the inertial and viscous forces in the solvent dynamics (the Reynolds number).

Summary
Molecular dynamics has an important advantage over Monte Carlo methods, in that it provides information about the time-dependence and magnitude of fluctuations in both positions and velocities, while Monte Carlo provides only positional information and gives no information on time-dependence. The original formulations of molecular dynamics had two shortcomings, however. First, simulations on fluids or solutions were carried out at constant volume, although volume fluctuations are critical to a number of phenomena. Second, the numerical integration of the equations of motion produces a trajectory in which the total energy of the system is conserved, while real systems generally exchange energy with their surroundings. A normal molecular dynamics free run corresponds to a simulation on the microcanonical ensemble, and it is often necessary to simulate the behavior of other ensembles. Methods for simulating other ensembles using Monte Carlo had been available for several years (Wood, 1968; Valleau & Whittington, 1977; Valleau & Torrie, 1977), and it was Andersen (1980) who first devised methods for molecular dynamics simulations on the other ensembles listed in table A3.1.
There are a number of situations where free molecular dynamics may be inappropriate and the methods described below are useful. For example, experiments on fluids and solutions are usually made at either fixed temperature and pressure or at fixed temperature and density, and appropriate ensembles should be used for simulations on these systems.

Summary
At macroscopic levels, the dynamic character of life is dramatically self-evident. Motion is no less important at the molecular level of biology. Indeed, the marked biochemical effects of temperature changes imply that the activity of biological molecules reflects their thermal mobility. An appreciation of molecular flexibility and dynamics is essential to the understanding of the activity of naturally occurring molecules and to the design of new molecules with specified activities.
Detailed studies of the atomic motion of proteins and nucleic acids are of recent origin. Nevertheless, far more has already been done than can be adequately described in a single volume. The aim of this book is accordingly modest. We attempt to provide the reader with a self-contained introduction to the theoretical aspects of protein and nucleic acid dynamics. The level of presentation is intended to be appropriate for graduate students as well as for research workers in biophysics, physical biochemistry, and molecular biotechnology. Our principal goals are (1) to outline the theoretical methods and their capabilities, (2) to provide a sense of the nature and biological significance of biomolecular dynamics by reference to representative theoretical studies, and (3) to indicate some prospects and directions for future work. Experimental work is covered incidentally in connection with theoretical results.
The book is organized generally to progress from fundamentals to applications and from short time scales to the longer time scales characteristic of most biological activity.

Summary
Function of proteins and nucleic acids
Proteins and nucleic acids are particularly prominent among the molecules essential to life. Their importance stems from the remarkable diversity of their functional roles. This diversity can be illustrated by listing a few of the major groups within each of these molecular families. Proteins are molecules that act to build the structural elements of organisms and to provide the energy necessary for life processes. Enzymes are proteins that catalyze biochemical reactions. Familiar examples include the digestive enzymes that degrade foodstuffs to simple, assimilable compounds; the biosynthetic enzymes that build complex molecules from simpler compounds; and muscle proteins that produce mechanical work from chemical reactions. Transport proteins such as hemoglobin facilitate the movement of molecular oxygen and other essential compounds to their sites of utilization. Antibodies are proteins that bind to and neutralize foreign materials that may be harmful to an organism. Other proteins are responsible for maintaining the structures of cells, organs, and organisms, while still others play essential roles in genetic expression, nerve conduction, and all other biological processes. Nucleic acids are the molecules that carry the information necessary for protein synthesis; they can be considered the ‘blueprints’ that contain the design of the living organism. In both procaryotes and eucaryotes, the genetic information of heredity is carried from one generation to the next in DNA, while various types of RNA's play vital roles in the translation of the DNA sequence of each gene into the amino acid sequence of the corresponding protein.

Summary
Survey of approaches
Given the structure of a protein or nucleic acid (e.g., from X-ray diffraction analysis) and a potential energy function, there are a variety of methods that can be used to study the dynamics of the molecule. In the present section, we mention a number of these methods and briefly indicate their strengths and weaknesses. More detailed descriptions of the potential functions and of several particularly important dynamics methods are given in the following sections. A useful, brief summary of some of these methods has been presented by van Gunsteren & Berendsen (1985).
The simplest method for studying motion in biopolymers is essentially static in nature and involves the characterization of low energy paths for specific motions. This is the method of adiabatic mapping (section 4.5). In this method, one induces a proposed structural change by forcing the primary atoms involved to move along a given path. The remaining atoms are allowed to move so as to reduce or minimize the potential energy of the whole system at each point on the path. These energies are taken to approximate the change in average potential energy that would occur during a real, spontaneous motion, because the shifts in atomic positions during relaxation correspond roughly to structural fluctuations that would facilitate the motion. The method is easy to use, requires only modest computational power, and has been applied to study both local and large scale structural changes.

Summary
Introduction
Most of the work described in the preceding chapters has dealt with the development of theoretical methods for studying the dynamics of proteins and nucleic acids or with the application of these methods to characterize the general properties of such molecules. A number of research groups have also started to apply theoretical methods to show how dynamics are involved in the function of specific biological molecules. In the coming years, theoretical methods will assume increasing importance as tools for answering practical questions in biochemistry and pharmacology. These tools will be used in the systematic interpretation of experimental data and in the prediction of properties of molecules prior to the synthesis or experimental study of such molecules. Theoretical methods will also continue to be used to answer more fundamental questions concerning the dynamic nature of these molecules. This chapter describes some of the work that is underway along these lines, and some of the directions in which this work is likely to lead.
The strengths of the methods described in this book are a consequence of the fact that the models are so detailed – every atom can be treated, and the potential functions can represent all forms of interatomic interactions. At the same time, it is this very detailed representation that produces the most serious limitations on the methods. By today's standards, a 100 ps molecular dynamics simulation of a macromolecule with a molecular weight of 30000 in solution is computationally very expensive.
