Self-adjusted elastic action and its CBM pool-forming effect of the high rank coal reservoir
The coal reservoir is a kind of geologic body with considerable elasticity, and its response to stress is more sensitive than the routine ones. In the pool-forming process of the coalbed methane, (CBM) the act...

SIV infection in wild gorillas
HIV 1 group M, the AIDS pandemic virus, was traced to a single cross-over of simian immunodeficiency virus from chimpanzees in west central Africa. Cross-over from the same reservoir led to the infection of a ...

Increased mortality and AIDS-like immunopathology in wild chimpanzees infected with SIVcpz
There are more than 40 different types of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infecting African primates, two of which crossed the species barrier to produce the AIDS viruses HIV-1 and HIV-2 in humans. Now a c...
