Anti‐Astrotropik — Outer Space, Technology and Resistance in the Tropics

open access: yesSingapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.
This paper traces an intellectual and geographical arc of thinking about outer space in the tropics, connecting Peter Redfield's Space in the Tropics: From Convicts to Rockets in French Guiana (2000), Sean T. Mitchell's Constellations of Inequality: Space, Race, and Utopia in Brazil (2017) and Asif Siddiqi's Cosmic Fragments: Dislocation and Discontent

Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics and haematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics, redox state, hydration and hematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice. Retained mitochondria in circulating RBCs from sickle mice are a source of RBC ATP as mitochondria function (ETC, electron transport chain) inhibitors [rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I

Sex‐specific metabolic responses to glucagon receptor agonism and modulation of the FGF21‐glucagon axis in female mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Therapies targeting the glucagon receptor are being explored for obesity treatment, yet most preclinical studies remain male biased. In this study, Merrild and Johansen et al. show that in diet‐induced obese wild‐type mice a long‐acting glucagon analogue (LA‐Gcg) elicits sexually dimorphic effects on weight loss, food intake ...

Δ9 Tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabis extracts differentially improve adipoinsular dysfunction in diet‐induced obesity

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend THC and extract administered to diet‐induced obese mice reduced body weight and fat storage. Extract, but not THC, improved glucose clearance by a mechanism that may include restoring adipoinsular function. Abstract Diet‐induced obesity (DIO) is associated with dysregulated adipoinsular axis and endocannabinoid system (eCBS ...

Quantifying Southern Sea Otter (Enhydra lutris nereis) Reactions to a Quadcopter Drone in Central California

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Drones are useful for wildlife research and management, but they can cause disturbance and harassment to wildlife. Sea otters (Enhydra lutris) are candidates for drone‐based observation and monitoring but are vulnerable to disturbance. No studies have evaluated drone effects on sea otter behavior, but based on prior disturbance studies, we ...

Modeling of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

open access: yes, 2016
Os veículos subaquáticos autónomos (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles – AUV’s) têm múltiplas aplicações militares, comerciais e para investigação científica. A grande vantagem destes veículos advém da sua independência, sendo que operam sem a necessidade de supervisão humana. No entanto esta capacidade implica que os sistemas de navegação, guia e controlo
