Axial coordination of ferric Aplysia myoglobin
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1989 Resonance Raman spectra of ferric Aplysia myoglobin in the ligand-free and the azide-bound forms have been studied over a wide pH range to determine the coordination states of the heme iron atom. In the hydroxide form at high pH (approximately 9) the iron is six-coordinate and is in a high/low spin equilibrium.

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1311-1333, June 2026.ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract A M5.9 earthquake occurred on 29 March 2024, offshore near the Strofades Islands, in the western Hellenic Subduction System. Here we present high‐precision earthquake locations and focal mechanisms that suggest the rupture of a NNE‐SSW striking, left‐lateral strike‐slip fault.
