Large-scale wind disturbances promote tree diversity in a Central Amazon forest. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Canopy gaps created by wind-throw events, or blowdowns, create a complex mosaic of forest patches varying in disturbance intensity and recovery in the Central Amazon. Using field and remote sensing data, we investigated the short-term (four-year) effects

Ice disturbance intensity structures benthic communities in nearshore Antarctic waters [PDF]
, 2007 Ice scouring is one of the 5 most significant natural forces acting on ecosystems, yet very few data exist linking the intensity of ice disturbance with parameters of benthic community structure.

Consequences of plateau pika disturbance on plant-soil carbon and nitrogen in alpine meadows
Frontiers in Plant ScienceThe presence of burrowing mammals can have extensive effects on plants and soils, creating bare soil patches in alpine meadows and potentially altering plant-soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N). This study focuses on the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) to

Coastal dynamic geomorphology under high intensity disturbance: research progress and perspectives
Shui kexue jinzhan, 2023 The coastal zone is the strongest interaction zone among the land, ocean, and atmosphere, and it is also the area that is most affected by global climate, sea-level change, and human activities.The dynamic process of the coastal zone has obvious ...

Identifying Patterns of Hospitalizations Among Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Population‐Based Study
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) experience more hospitalizations than the general population. We aimed to identify distinct hospitalization patterns among Queensland CCSs and the associated characteristics. Methods Cases (aged ≤14 years) diagnosed between 1995 and 2019 while residents of Queensland were identified through the ...

Testing the intermediate disturbance hypothesis: response of fouling communities to various levels of emersion intensity [PDF]
, 2004 Connell¹s intermediate disturbance hypothesis (IDH) postulates that diversity peaks at an intermediate level of disturbance frequency or intensity. To test the validity of this concept for the species-poor marine hard-bottom community of the Western ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

The human gut microbiome across the life course
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.
