Rudarsko-geološko-naftni Zbornik, 2016 Asteroids are the largest minor bodies in the Solar System. Nowadays they are in the research focus due to several facts about them: first, a subclass of asteroids can collide with Earth, and consequences of such a collision are dramatic.

Asteroid Family Associations of Active Asteroids [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2018 Abstract We report on the results of a systematic search for associated asteroid families for all active asteroids known to date. We find that 10 out of 12 main-belt comets (MBCs) and five out of seven disrupted asteroids are linked with known or candidate families, rates that have ∼0.1% and ∼6% probabilities, respectively, of occurring ...

Animal Conservation, Volume 25, Issue 6, Page 771-781, December 2022., 2022 We combined the results of a mesocosm experiment with demographic population modeling to investigate how the conversion of native prairie to agricultural grasslands dominated by Tall Fescue grass (Lolium arundinacea) affected larval density dependence and adult population size of an imperiled amphibian, Lithobates areolatus (Crawfish Frog).

Integrative biology of injury in animals
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 34-62, February 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Mechanical injury is a prevalent challenge in the lives of animals with myriad potential consequences for organisms, including reduced fitness and death. Research on animal injury has focused on many aspects, including the frequency and severity of wounding in wild populations, the short‐ and long‐term consequences of injury at different ...

Reproductive biology of the bathyal asteroid Ctenodiscus crispatus in the northeastern Pacific
Invertebrate Biology, Volume 141, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022 Abstract The mud star Ctenodiscus crispatus has a broad distribution from Arctic waters into the northern Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Populations in the Atlantic are well studied and show oocyte sizes indicative of continuous gametogenesis with aseasonal spawning.

, 2015 Asteroid photometry has three major applications: providing clues about asteroid surface physical properties and compositions, facilitating photometric corrections, and helping design and plan ground-based and spacecraft observations. The most significant advances in asteroid photometry in the past decade were driven by spacecraft observations that ...

Nature, 2009 The production of terrestrial andesites in subduction zones is well established. Day et al. describe two examples of meteorites (GRA 06128 and GRA 06129) that they claim to represent "an entirely new mode of generation of andesite crust compositions" on asteroids; this suggestion has wide implications for the generation of andesitic planetary crusts in

Observational Data and Orbits of the Asteroids Discovered at the Molėtai Observatory in 2008–2009
Open Astronomy, 2016 We present the statistics of the asteroids observed and discovered at the Molėtai Observatory, Lithuania, in 2008–2009 within the project for astrometric observations of the near-Earth objects (NEOs), the main belt asteroids and comets.
