Research on mosquito feeding preferences and the malaria parasites they transmit is essential for understanding the interactions between hosts, vectors, and parasites. In this study, vertebrate hosts were identified in 72 mosquitoes. Most blood meals (58.7%) came from birds, representing 25 species, while 40.0% came from mammals (13 species), and 1.3 ...

The Caspian Sea level forced by the atmospheric circulation, as observed and modelled [PDF]
The Caspian Sea Level (CSL) has experienced large fluctuations with wide-reaching impacts on the population on the coastal regions and on the economy. The CSL variability is dominated by the variability of precipitation over the Volga River basin.

The glacierized Valle Frías in Northern Patagonia is one of the best‐studied valleys in South America and includes varved sediments from Lago Frías. We complement this lacustrine record with a high‐resolution documentation of varve counts and their composition.

Authoring Terrestrial Planets with Diffusion Models
Abstract To support the design and subsequent generation of terrestrial planets for use in the creative media, we propose a solution that employs a generative model trained on satellite data from planetary bodies with a defined solid surface, such as the Earth and Mars.

TerraTinker: Crafting Playful Geospatial Visualizations
Abstract With the onset of digital technologies, conveying information to the young generation is becoming evermore challenging, forcing us to explore alternative methods, such as using video games. A typical area that could benefit from innovation is geography, where we want to convey the relationship between selected geographical locations and ...

Anchor Flow Maps: Efficient Sampling and Approximation of the Entire Flow Map
Abstract Flow maps are a fundamental concept for the visualization and analysis of time‐dependent flows. A common approach is to apply sampling and reconstruction – which comes with a number of problems: flow maps are high‐dimensional functions with locally large gradients which makes approximations very challenging.

Differentiable Randers‐Finsler Eikonal Solvers
Abstract Fast and differentiable solvers for anisotropic and asymmetric distance fields are a key primitive in geometry processing, enabling gradient‐based optimization over metrics, drift fields, and downstream objectives that depend on geodesic distances and geodesics.

An integrated framework combining geometric morphometrics and ecological niche modeling was applied to Cydalima perspectalis to assess intergenerational morphological variation, test sexual dimorphism, and predict future distribution under climate scenarios. Wing shape effectively discriminated between generations but not between sexes.

Weather‐Induced Positive Sentiment and Insider Trading
ABSTRACT Exploiting variations in sunshine exposure near insiders' locations, we find that weather‐induced positive sentiment leads to higher insider purchases, albeit with lower performance. Overoptimism induced by abnormally good weather serves as the underlying mechanism. The effect is more pronounced when insiders' purchase decisions are fuelled by
