Cryoseismic activity and dynamics of the Astrolabe Coastal Glacier, East Antarctica - The SEIS-ADELICE project (2020-2025)

Seismica
As part of the SEIS-ADELICE project (2020–2025), hundreds of seismological instruments were deployed on and around the Astrolabe Glacier in Terre Adélie, East Antarctica.

Histomorphology Structure of the Gastric Caecum, Midgut, and Malpighian Tubules in Adult Flatheaded Pine Borer Chalcophora mariana (Linnaeus, 1758) (Coleoptera: Buprestidae)

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pine weevil is one of the largest species in the jewel beetle (Buprestidae) family found in Central Europe and Turkey. Chalcophora mariana is generally considered a secondary guest and primarily develops in weakened, decaying, or recently dead pine trees.

Authoring Terrestrial Planets with Diffusion Models

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract To support the design and subsequent generation of terrestrial planets for use in the creative media, we propose a solution that employs a generative model trained on satellite data from planetary bodies with a defined solid surface, such as the Earth and Mars.

A thermophilic hormone-sensitive lipase family esterase Est1404 identified from an Antarctic bacterium Pseudomonas sp. E2-15

Polar Research
Esterases are a group of enzymes with a diverse range of uses in industry. We identified a novel hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) in the esterase family, Est1404, through cloning and expression from the Antarctic bacterium Pseudomonas sp.

Comprehensive and representative conservation planning for biodiversity of ice‐free Antarctica

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antarctica is designated as a natural reserve devoted to peace and science, with Antarctic Specially Protected Areas (ASPAs) serving as the primary instrument for area‐based biodiversity protection. However, the existing ASPA network lacks the comprehensiveness and representativeness required under Annex V, Article 3(2), of the Madrid Protocol.

Climate Vulnerability of Australian Seafood Systems: A National Assessment of Exposure and Adaptive Capacity

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine waters are becoming warmer and acidified and experiencing more intense and longer heatwaves under climate change. These changes are already impacting marine ecosystems and seafood production, which are vital for supporting food security and economic productivity.

Triple Oxygen Isotope Compositions of Isotopic Reference Waters: Implications for VSMOW‐Scale and VSMOW–SLAP‐Scale Δ′17O Calibration

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Triple oxygen isotope ratios of two primary (VSMOW, SLAP) and twelve secondary water isotopic reference materials were precisely measured using BrF5 fluorination‐IRMS. The measured Δ'17OVSMOW value for SLAP (34 ± 6 per meg) demonstrates that VSMOW‐SLAP normalisation ensures interlaboratory comparability, but introduces systematic offsets for

Concentrated vulnerabilities in bees: Diet specialists have smaller geographic ranges

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Niche breadth theory predicts a positive association between range size and diet breadth, which could concentrate risk among specialists, but this is not well established for bees. Using global occurrence data (range size) and natural history collection‐derived pollen data (diet breadth), we compared these traits in 633 species from six families and ...

Against the odds: Nesting specialization and foraging ecology provide insights into climate change responses in a mountain bee

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
A unique high‐elevation Exoneura bee defies typical elevation‐driven declines in bee activity, nesting exclusively in dead branches of snow gums near the alpine tree line. Nesting and foraging are tightly linked to snow gum presence, with most activity occurring within 30 m of these trees. Biophysical modelling indicates the bee's thermally constrained

Standards for Hospital Falls Prevention and Management: An International Comparative Analysis

Journal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hospital falls and associated injuries are a global issue associated with harm and significant costs to individuals and society, especially for older adults. Hospital standards specify the minimum level of care required to optimise patient safety, quality and outcomes. Standards are often used during hospital accreditation.
