    Description: An approach to analyze high-end sea level rise is presented to provide a conceptual framework for high-end estimates as a function of time scale, thereby linking robust sea level science with stakeholder needs. Instead of developing and agreeing on a set of high-end sea level rise numbers or using an expert consultation, our effort is focused on the essential task of providing a generic conceptual framework for such discussions and demonstrating its feasibility to address this problem. In contrast, information about high-end sea level rise projections was derived previously either from a likely range emerging from the highest view of emissions in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment (currently the Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 scenario) or from independent ad hoc studies and expert solicitations. Ideally, users need high-end sea level information representing the upper tail of a single joint sea level frequency distribution, which considers all plausible yet unknown emission scenarios as well as involved physical mechanisms and natural variability of sea level, but this is not possible. In the absence of such information we propose a framework that would infer the required information from explicit conditional statements (lines of evidence) in combination with upper (plausible) physical bounds. This approach acknowledges the growing uncertainty in respective estimates with increasing time scale. It also allows consideration of the various levels of risk aversion of the diverse stakeholders who make coastal policy and adaptation decisions, while maintaining scientific rigor.

    Notes: Summary Caeruloplasmin (Cp) concentration and oxidase activity have been shown to be elevated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis, but normal in Reiter's syndrome, Behcet's syndrome and juvenile seronegative polyarthritis. Synovial fluid Cp was significantly depressed in comparison with serum Cp in RA. During second-line therapy in RA, Cp concentration and activity fell significantly (P〈0.001), but the change in Cp did not correlate with plasma viscosity.

    Notes: Abstract It is difficult to permanently alter the shape of cartilage in a controlled way. In otolaryngology and plastic surgery several procedures are done to alter the shape of cartilage, for example the correction of a deviated nasal septum and surgery for bat ears. The aim of this paper is to study the main parameters which are necessary for the phenomenon of reshaping of cartilage under non-destructive laser radiation. We have measured temperature and stress in cartilage when it is being reshaped with a holmium laser, It has been shown that laser-induced stress relaxation in cartilage takes place when the tissue temperature exceeds 70°C. We have determined the conditions which allow the shape of cartilage to be altered without producing any pronounced alteration to matrix structure or chondrocytes.
