Corals and Reef‐Dwelling Fish Regulate Carbon Storage and Cycling Processes in Coral Reef Ecosystems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Coral reefs are biodiversity hotspots, yet their role in carbon storage and cycling remains poorly understood. Using field surveys and modeling in the South China Sea, we reveal the overlooked potential of carbon storage in reef ecosystems and how reef fish, corals, and surface sediment jointly shape reef carbon reservoirs.

Características geológicas, hidrológicas y del manglar en la planicie costera de Nayarit, México

Investigaciones Geográficas, 1996
The different geoforms of the coastal zone are consecuence of environmental changes (hydrology, climate, marine hydrodynamic and organic growth). The coastal plain of Nayarit is an example of the confluence of these factors which result in saltmarshes ...

Mapping the “Supply–Demand–Flow” of Ecosystem Services for Ecosystem Management in China

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a “supply–demand–flow” framework clarifies how ecosystem services move between regions by distinguishing potential and actual supply and demand. Using integrated biophysical–socioeconomic modeling, nine services in China were mapped.

A Chirality‐Converted Bacteriolytic Dodecapeptide Regulates Vibrio‐Induced Polymicrobial Infection and Ameliorates Invasion‐Associated Gut Microbiota Disequilibrium

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multidrug‐resistant Vibrio infections are rising rapidly and threaten coastal populations worldwide. This study introduces D‐zp37, a chirality‐engineered antimicrobial peptide with exceptional potency against resistant Vibrio species. D‐zp37 kills planktonic cells, blocks mixed‐species biofilms, disrupts essential bacterial stress responses, and shows ...

High Fracture Toughness of 1D Copper‐Based MOP Electrode Enables Fast‐Charging Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Traditional electrode materials suffer from particle cracking and rapid capacity fade during fast charging, largely originating from their low fracture toughness. This work introduces a one‐dimensional Cu‐based metal–organic polymer, in which strong π‐d conjugation and π–π stacking endow the framework with high fracture toughness, simultaneously ...

Assortative mating in Ixodes scapularis Say, 1821 (Acari: Ixodidae)

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Mate choice influences levels of inbreeding and genetic diversity in natural populations. Positive assortative mating (PAM), for instance, has been described in Ixodes ricinus L., but this behavior has yet to be investigated in the closely related Ixodes

T2T Genome Assembly and Multi‐Omics Data Reveal Terrestrial Adaptation and Mucus Biosynthesis in Tropical Leatherleaf Slug (Laevicaulis alte)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A gap‐free genome assembly and multi‐omics comparison of the terrestrial slug Laevichaulis alte with an aquatic relative reveal that expansion of the VEGF family orchestrates mucus production, lipid metabolism, and immune defense—highlighting key molecular innovations for conquering life on land.

Ticks without borders: microbiome of immature neotropical tick species parasitizing migratory songbirds along northern Gulf of Mexico

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
IntroductionThe long-distance, seasonal migrations of birds make them an effective ecological bridge for the movement of ticks. The introduction of exotic tick species to new geographical regions can cause the emergence of novel tick-borne pathogens ...

Concentrations and variations of total N, available P and K of cultivated soils in Zhejiang Province, China

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2012
Total N, available P and K of cultivated soils from 11 districts of Zhejiang Province were investigated. Statistical results showed that the average soil total N and available K decreased, and the average soil available P increased, as compared with ...
