Imagining the beat: causal evidence for dorsal premotor cortex (dPMC) role in beat imagery via transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)

Author(s): Lazzari G; Ferreri L; Cattaneo L; Penhune V; Lega C;

The ability to internally generate and maintain a rhythmic pulse, i.e., beat imagery, is a fundamental aspect of musical cognition. While recent theories propose that premotor regions support internal temporal predictions during rhythm perception and imagery, direct causal evidence remains limited.

Climate variability is an important driver of water treatability in a shallow reservoir

Author(s): Spence DS; Painter KJ; Nazemi A; Venkiteswaran JJ; Baulch HM;

Drinking water treatability is defined by multiple parameters that are strongly impacted by climatic and anthropogenic drivers. Working in a shallow reservoir in the Canadian Prairies, generalized additive models (GAMs) were applied to a 33-year dataset to identify drivers of interannual variability in multiple indicators of drinking water treatability. I ...
