Structure of the lower atmosphere of Venus

open access: yesIcarus, 1962
Abstract If the centimeter microwave emission from Venus arises from its surface, the radar reflectivities and microwave brightness temperatures give mean darkside surface temperatures of about 640° K. Extrapolations of the phase data to small phase angles indicate mean brightside surface temperatures of about 750° K.

Light‐Based Molecular Tools to Precisely Monitor and Operate β‐Adrenoceptors

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT β‐Adrenoceptors are important G protein–coupled receptors involved in cardiovascular, metabolic, and neurological regulation. To study their function with high precision, light‐based molecular tools have been developed offering precise spatiotemporal control.

Puffy Venuses: The Mass–Radius Impact of Carbon-rich Atmospheres on Lava Worlds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The recent advancements in exoplanet observations enable the potential detection of exo-Venuses, rocky planets with carbon-rich atmospheres. How extended these atmospheres can be, given high carbon abundances, has not been studied.

Identification of Surface, Interface, and Bulk States on the Pristine and Passivated InP (001) and (111) Surfaces Using Surface Photovoltage Spectroscopy

open access: yesphysica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, EarlyView.
This study investigates surface, interface, and bulk states of pristine and passivated InP crystals, which show distinct characteristics due to their different growth orientations and reconstructions. The study also examines how radiative and nonradiative processes related to surface reconstruction influence luminescence and absorption phenomena, that ...

Beyond Sexual Selection: Natural Selection Related Camouflage and Thermoregulation Shape Sexual Color Dimorphism in Diploderma Lizards

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Integrating comparative spectrometry, image analysis, and thermal modeling, we reveal that (1) females optimize crypsis via background matching, (2) males prioritize high‐contrast disruptive patterning at a significant thermoregulatory cost (reduced solar heat gain), and (3) habitat‐specific monomorphism in Diploderma slowinskii underscores ecological ...

How Can Accountants Enhance (or Save) Natural and Cultural Capital Valuation? Engaging Academics: A Collaboration with CPA Canada and the Canadian Commission for UNESCO*

open access: yesAccounting Perspectives, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 21-46, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Accountants should engage more with natural and cultural capital accounting to make tools more accessible and to ensure critical information is provided to decision‐makers. While ecological economists have continued to innovate and design tools, corporate‐level accounting has seemingly lagged behind.

Modeling enstatite chondrites: Reduced rocks with a pinch of oxidized material (affected by varying H2O(g)) derived from planetesimals shocked during the epoch of giant–planet migration

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The O‐, N‐, Mo‐, Ru‐, Os‐, Cr‐, Ti‐, Ni‐, Fe‐, Nd‐, Ca‐, Zn‐, Sr‐, and Mg‐isotopic compositions of enstatite chondrites are essentially identical to those of the Earth and Moon. These correspondences suggest enstatite chondrites formed at ≈1 AU as the only known chondrite groups that accreted in the vicinity of a major planet. Bulk Earth has a

Transcriptomic prey‐capture responses in convergently evolved carnivorous pitcher plants

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The Australian pitcher plant Cephalotus and the Asian pitcher plant Nepenthes exhibit striking morphological and functional similarities, serving as compelling examples of convergent evolution. Although trapping pitchers in both lineages represent some of the most elaborate leaf structures in angiosperms, it remains unknown whether their ...
