A High‐Accuracy TEC Model for Low‐Mid Latitudes Using a BWO‐Optimized CNN‐xLSTM Hybrid Model With Multi‐Instrument Data Fusion

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The total electron content (TEC) in the ionosphere is strongly affected by solar activity and geomagnetic disturbances in mid‐ and low‐latitude regions, making it a major source of error in GNSS navigation and communication systems. To improve the prediction accuracy of ionospheric TEC, this study proposes a deep learning model—Beluga Whale ...

Identification of two novel papillomaviruses in belugas

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionPapillomaviruses (PVs) can cause hyperplasia in the skin and mucous membranes of humans, mammals, and non-mammalian animals, and are a significant risk factor for cervical and genital cancers.MethodsUsing next-generation sequencing (NGS), we identified two novel strains of papillomavirus, PV-HMU-1 and PV-HMU-2, in swabs taken from belugas ...

No Groundwater, No Fish: The Critical Role of Groundwater in Supporting Non‐Glacial, Salmon‐Bearing Rivers in South‐Central Alaska

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Groundwater discharge plays an important role in the hydrologic and ecologic functioning of rivers including sustaining streamflow and related habitat year‐round. Simultaneously, groundwater supports the increasing demands of people as the global population continues to grow.

A Look at Important Marine Areas in the U.S. Beaufort and Chukchi Seas: Ecologically rich places to protect in the Arctic Ocean [PDF]

, 2016
Sound decision-making about the future of the U.S. Arctic Ocean must include an understanding of how its marine ecosystems function. Although all areas of the U.S. Chukchi and Beaufort seas contribute to ecological integrity, some are especially vital to

KILLJOY POETICS IN ANTJE RÁVIK STRUBEL'S BLAUE FRAU (2021)

German Life and Letters, Volume 79, Issue 2, Page 217-242, April 2026.
Abstract Drawing on Sara Ahmed's concept of killjoy activism, I explore how Antje Rávik Strubel's Blaue Frau employs a killjoy poetics that refuses to brush over violence, asymmetry, injury and force. Instead, the novel intervenes in affective textures of happiness and reconciliation, and forms activist and ecological networks of resistance. I build on

Oceanographic, ecological, and socio-economic impacts of an unusual summer storm in the Mackenzie Estuary

Arctic Science, 2020
With increased warming and open water due to climate change, the frequency and intensity of storm surges is expected to increase. Although studies have shown that strong storms can negatively impact Arctic ecosystems, the impact of storms on Arctic ...

Relation between beluga whale aggregations and sea temperature on climate change forecasts

Frontiers in Marine Science
Climate change has been shown to alter the spatial distribution of whales and other marine mammals. Fast changing ocean temperatures may also affect the spatial distribution of whales at a finer scale, namely within populations, including aggregation ...

Measuring Hearing in Wild Beluga Whales [PDF]

, 2016
We measured the hearing abilities of seven wild beluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas) during a collection-and-release experiment in Bristol Bay, AK. Here we summarize the methods and initial data from one animal and discuss the implications of this experiment. Audiograms were collected from 4 to 150 kHz.

Correcting Lipid Extraction Effects on Nitrogen Isotopic Values (δ15N) in Cetacean Skin

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Stable isotopes of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) are widely used to study the feeding ecology of cetaceans, as they provide critical insights into diet and migratory behaviors. Lipids in tissues may bias the interpretation of δ13C. Because of this, lipids need to be extracted before measuring stable isotope ratios, but their removal may ...
