Transverse Relaxation Time Constant of Cystathionine in Human Glioma at 3 T

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Cystathionine (Cth) has emerged as a promising biomarker for identifying 1p/19q codeleted gliomas. However, little is known about the T2 relaxation time constant of Cth in gliomas. The aim of this study was to measure the T2 of Cth in vivo in glioma and compare it to the T2s of other metabolites at 3 T.

Bacterial Diversity Associated with Millepora alcicornis, Phyllogorgia dilatata and Mussismilia harttii Collected from Two Distinct Corals Reefs on the Brazilian Coast

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Corals can be considered holobiont organisms, since they have an important symbiotic relationship with microbial communities such as zooxanthellae, bacteria, Archaea, fungi and viruses.

On the botanical history and nomenclature of the New World genus Piscidia (Fabaceae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Piscidia L. (Fabaceae) is a New World genus with nine recognized taxa (seven species and two varieties). The previous nomenclatural revisions, made in 1910 and in 1969, are revisited here. The names Derris grandifolia Heyde & Lux ex Donn.Sm. and P. cubensis Urb. required step II lectotypifications, with an epitype for the latter name.

Benthic megafauna and the functioning of macroalgal forests and urchin barrens

Oikos, EarlyView.
Two temperate rocky reef food‐web models, representing the trophic diversity of the Mediterranean rocky reef communities, were built for the two stable states: macroalgal forests and barren grounds, which are characterized by opposite amounts of erect macroalgal biomass.

The Politics of Policy Robustness: A Central Paradox and Computational Review of Adaptive Policymaking

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy robustness, that is, the capacity of policies to sustain performance across diverse and uncertain futures, is increasingly considered a core objective of public policymaking. Although adaptive policymaking is widely promoted as an approach to achieving policy robustness, it suffers from a central paradox highlighted by theories of the ...

Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...

Mid-term coral-algal dynamics and conservation status of a Gorgona Island (Tropical Eastern Pacific) coral reef

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2010
Colombian coral reefs, as other reefs worldwide, have deteriorated significantly during the last few decades due to both natural and anthropogenic disturbances. The National Monitoring System for Coral Reefs in Colombia (SIMAC) was established in 1998 to
