- BookYoo Kyung Lee.Summary: The Arctic is a special world. The Arctic Ocean is covered by white sea ice, and its margins are surrounded by bare terrestrial regions, known as tundra. Tundra is a cold and dry environment without trees, but even in the absence of trees, tundra plants such as dwarf shrubs, grasses, herbs and moss support the harsh environment by providing sustenance and shelter. This book introduces representative arctic plants and their function in Svalbard, revealing the unique tundra ecosystem, and discussing the direct and indirect effects of climate change in the Arctic.

- ArticleJardin F, Gurdjian F, Eveleight MC, Fouilladieu JL, Margairaz A.Resuscitation. 1978;6(2):125-9.Thirteen patients with severe acute respiratory failure were ventilated with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) for 9 days. Haemodynamic measurements were performed after 15 min during 100% oxygen breathing, first with intermittent-positive pressure ventilation, secondly with positive end-expiratory pressure. The latter improved the Pa, O2 from 89 to 150 torr, decreased the QS/QT from 43% to 32% and decreased the Pa, CO2 from 37 to 34 torr; this improvement in gas exchange was accompanied by a decrease in cardiac index from 4.4 to 3.7 1 min-1m-2 without changing the systemic arterial pressure. Despite this beneficial effect on arterial blood oxygenation, it did not improve the survival rate of patients with severe acute respiratory failure.
