Heterogeneous coupling of the Sumatran megathrust constrained by geodetic and paleogeodetic measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Geodetic and paleogeodetic measurements of interseismic strain above the Sumatran portion of the Sunda subduction zone reveal a heterogeneous pattern of coupling.

Comparison of Signal‐ and Volume‐Based Ventilation‐Weighted Assessment Using 3D FLORET UTE MRI in Patients With Various Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose 3D free‐breathing, proton, contrast‐agent‐free MR methods are increasingly used for pulmonary ventilation‐weighted measurements. The methods are split between: (1) signal‐based, which rely on lung parenchyma signal changes during respiration, and (2) volume‐based that utilize the Jacobian determinant of deformation fields from the ...

Multiple scales of fear: foraging behaviour of white‐naped jays in semiarid landscapes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Animals must constantly balance the need to find resources with the risk of predation. Not only avoiding direct encounters with predators but also assessing the overall risk of their environment using cues, social information or habitat traits at multiple spatial and temporal scales.

Irrigation using slightly saline water from emerging desalination technologies as a solution to short‐term drought

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
With global weather patterns becoming more extreme and unpredictable, sourcing reliable irrigation water is vital for improving food security and conserving drinking water in drought‐prone areas. Emerging desalination technologies, which are still in the development phase, could potentially provide large quantities of slightly saline water for ...

Coral‐Like Yolk–Shell‐Structured CoNi@Void@C Microspheres for Enhanced Microwave Absorption, Photothermal, Anti‐Corrosion, and Radiation Shielding Properties

open access: yesRare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Considering the multiple challenges faced by stealth coatings in complex service environments, the development of multifunctional integrated microwave absorbing materials (MAMs) that combine efficient electromagnetic (EM) attenuation with environmental tolerance has become an urgent need. In this work, coral‐like CoNi@Void@C microparticle (MP)

Antibacterial Sphingolipid and Steroids from the Black Coral Antipathes dichotoma

open access: yesChemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2010
From the black coral Antipathies dichotoma, a sphingolipid (2S*,3S*,4E,8E)-2N-[tetradecanoyl]-4(E),8(E)-icosadiene-1,3-diol (1) and a steroid (22E)-methylcholesta-5,22-diene-1α,3β,7α-triol (2) were isolated. Other known compounds, 3β,7α-dihydroxy-cholest-5-ene (3), (22E,24S),5α,8α-epidioxy-24-methylcholesta-6,22-dien-3β-ol (4) and (22E,24S),5α,8α ...

Deep-sea coral distribution on seamounts, oceanic islands, and continental slopes in the Northeast Atlantic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A database of deep-water (\u3e 200 m) antipatharians, scleractinians, and gorgonians has been assembled for the NE Atlantic to determine what their distribution and diversity was before coral habitats became heavily impacted by bottom fishing gear ...

Epizoic acoelomorph flatworms compete with their coral host for zooplankton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Satisfying nutrient requirement of corals is still a major constraint for maintaining corals in marine aquariums. Corals are polytrophic in nature. Heterotrophic feeding on zooplankton is one of the corals’ strategies to overcome nutrient deficiency ...
