Terrain Synthesis and Authoring based on Iso‐Contours

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Digital terrains are central to realistic landscape depiction, yet authoring tools must balance perceptual realism with intuitive artistic control. We propose a compact vector‐based representation that models terrain as nested iso‐contours, inspired by geomorphology and cartography.

Using incentive payments to promote human–carnivore coexistence

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract For many large carnivores, minimizing the financial burden they impose on local people is critical to their conservation. Incentive‐based programs that provide people with financial benefits for taking pro‐conservation actions or achieving conservation goals are a promising tool for promoting human–carnivore coexistence. Although the number of

The cratering record at Uranus: Implications for satellite evolution and the origin of impacting objects [PDF]

The crater size/frequency distributions on the major Uranian satellites show two distinctly different crater populations of different ages. Any hypothesis on the origin of the objects responsible for the period of heavy bombardment must account for the ...

Crater Equilibrium State Characterization given Crater Production from a Single Power Law

The Planetary Science Journal
We generalize the crater equilibrium concept, a terminal state on a cratered surface where the balance of crater production and erasure apparently limits the crater population from further growth. Assuming the crater production consists of a single power

Bimekizumab efficacy using IHS4 outcomes in hidradenitis suppurativa: Results from BE HEARD I and II

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
The majority of bimekizumab‐treated patients shifted from severe to mild and moderate IHS4 stages, and nearly 25% achieved an IHS4 of 0 by Week 48. Bimekizumab led to clinically meaningful improvements across IHS4 outcome measures. These data highlight an opportunity to address the need for effective treatments against draining tunnels.

Characteristics of ejecta and alluvial deposits at Meteor Crater, Arizona and Odessa Craters, Texas: Results from ground penetrating radar [PDF]

Previous ground penetrating radar (GRP) studies around 50,000 year old Meteor Crater revealed the potential for rapid, inexpensive, and non-destructive sub-surface investigations for deep reflectors (generally greater than 10 m).

Bony fish genomes: Status and gaps

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bony fish constitute an exceptionally species‐rich group of aquatic vertebrates, comprising more than 95% of all living fish. The adaptive processes on the diversity of environments they inhabit make them a highly diverse group from taxonomic, morphological and evolutionary standpoints.

Photogeologic mapping of Meridiani Sinus region from Mariner 6 and 7 imagery [PDF]

Photogeologic mapping of Mariner photographs characterizes major stratigraphic units of the Martian equatorial region. The low resolution photomosaic ship across Meridiani Sinus Deucalionus Regio is divided into regional map units based on albedo and ...

Scratching beneath the surface: Quantification of muscle architecture and myosin heavy chain content in the forelimbs of black‐tailed prairie dogs (Cynomys, Rodentia)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Black‐tailed prairie dogs are highly social ground squirrels that excavate communal burrow systems, most often in medium‐textured soils. Their forelimbs demonstrate morphofunctional trade‐offs for scratch‐digging and terrestrial ecology, including well‐developed and fast‐contracting proximal musculature with large mechanical advantage paired with ...
