Evaluating the Seismic Damage Dynamics of Buildings’ Vertical Growth in Lima, Peru
In Lima, as in many cities, most residential buildings grow vertically over their lifespan due to incremental construction. Multiple stories are added to buildings, often without structural retrofits or even without design. As a result, the seismic vulnerability of these buildings increases, requiring the government to create resilience policies that ...

ABSTRACT Background Ageing is associated with the loss of muscle mass and function, with consequences for metabolic health, frailty and independence in later life. The aim of this study was to investigate the transcriptional heterogeneity of human proliferating muscle satellite/stem cells (myoblasts) from older adults and how this heterogeneity may ...

Loss of Myonuclei and Transcriptional Activity During Diaphragm Atrophy in Critically Ill Patients
ABSTRACT Background Diaphragm weakness frequently develops in critically ill patients and is explained by a combination of atrophy and myofiber dysfunction. Myofibers are large syncytial cells maintained by a population of myonuclei, which provide gene transcripts to a finite fiber volume, termed the myonuclear domain.

Google Earth Engine was utilised to assess snow cover area (SCA) across eight Upper Indus Basin (UIB) subbasins, employing ARIMA for prediction and comparing MODIS datasets using Dunn's test. Spatiotemporal changes were analysed using MK, Sen's slope, and other statistical tests.

Current Concepts and Future Directions of CELSS [PDF]
Bioregenerative life support systems for use in space were studied. Concepts of such systems include the use of higher plants and/or microalgae as sources of food, potable water and oxygen, and as sinks for carbon dioxide and metabolic wastes.

Spatially resolved SECCM measurements reveal that hierarchically grown microribbons on 2D WS2 drastically suppress local HER activity. Relative to the basal plane of the 2D monolayer directly supported on an Au substrate, single‐layer and multilayer microribbons exhibit more than a ∼5‐fold and >10‐fold decrease in current density, respectively.

Long‐Term Snow Avalanche Trends in High Mountain Asia: Climatic Drivers and Impacts
Abstract Devastating snow avalanches are frequent in High Mountain Asia (HMA) yet remain undocumented with climate change impact drivers poorly understood. Here we introduce the first record of 60 million avalanche deposits across 10,701 small catchments, compiled from 33 years of Landsat data from 1990 until 2022 using a snow index.

Abstract Increasing our knowledge about the structure and metabolism of the microbial plankton community in coastal upwelling systems is essential for efficiently managing the resources of these highly productive ecosystems. Here we explore seasonal variations of this community in the NW Iberian coastal upwelling system by measuring variables informing

Abstract On 10 May 2024, a severe G5 geomagnetic storm—the most intense of solar cycle 25—significantly disturbed the global ionosphere. This study presents a comprehensive analysis using multi‐instrument observations, including ground‐based measurements from BDS‐GEO total electron content (TEC), digital ionosondes, and magnetometers; model outputs ...
