Subarctic


Definition:

  • (a.) Approximately arctic; belonging to a region just without the arctic circle.

Example Sentences:

  • (19) T2 (T. nativa) is present in terrestrial mammals and seldom in sea mammals of arctic and subarctic regions.
  • (20) Although fish tapeworm infections in arctic and subarctic residents are often attributed to the cestode Diphyllobothrium latum, other Diphyllobothrium species are frequently responsible.

Subpolar


Definition:

  • (a.) Situated below the poles.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Histopathologic findings were those of subpolar-lepromatous to borderline-lepromatous leprosy in the Ridley-Jopling classification.
  • (2) An attempt has been made to describe the clinical and histological features of subpolar tuberculoid leprosy.
  • (3) The cells are Gram-negative, slightly curved rods, motile by a single subpolarly inserted flagellum.

  • (7) In the euphotic layer (0-200 m), the mean value of the bacterial biomass was similar to that of phytoplankton in mesotrophic waters of tropic divergences and subpolar zones.
  • (8) Three case reports of patients with a single, nodular, subpolar lepromatous skin lesion, one on the left elbow, another on the posterior aspect of the left leg, and the third on the extensor ulnar aspect of the right forearm, are presented.
  • (9) Existence of subpolar tuberculoid leprosy was postulated by a few leprologists to explain clinical variations near the tuberculoid pole but failed to precisely identify the same.
  • (10) The subpolar T cases do exist, they are unstable cases which can slide through the immunological spectrum towards the L pole.
  • (11) The remainder, with the exception of Mono Lake (Kemerovo group, Chenuda Subgroup), which may be a virus of inland birds, are ixodid tick viruses associated mostly with seabirds of the polar or subpolar regions.
