Spatial and temporal dynamics of a bark beetle outbreak in the Eastern European Alps

open access: yesEcosphere
The Alps are currently considered among the ecoregions with the highest magnitude of average bark beetle disturbance per year in Europe. We present a disturbance characterization based on a unique database including more than 50,000 records of ground ...

Contribution of seagrass plants to CO2 capture in a tropical seagrass meadow under experimental disturbance.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Coastal vegetative habitats are known to be highly productive environments with a high ability to capture and store carbon. During disturbance this important function could be compromised as plant photosynthetic capacity, biomass, and/or growth are ...

A new flow chip in combination with multiphoton microscopy as a protocol for longitudinal 3D imaging of tissue calcification under shear stress

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Miniaturized flow chip platform enabling continuous perfusion and longitudinal multiphoton 3D imaging of vascular smooth muscle cell constructs under physiological flow. Brightfield imaging guides region selection, while CellTracker Green and mRuby‐labeled fetuin‐A visualize cells and mineral deposition, respectively. Magnesium supplementation markedly

Nekton falls, low-intensity disturbance and community structure of infaunal benthos in the deep sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
A simulation of natural disturbance at the bathyal seafloor evoked rapid response from dominant infaunal species, for the first time providing experimental evidence that similar disturbances structure normal deep-sea communities.

WTEC: A new index to estimate the intensity of ionospheric disturbances

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2018
We propose a new index, WTEC, to estimate the level of ionospheric disturbances from Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) data. The index is calculated based on dual-frequency phase measurements from single GNSS receiver. An index value exhibits the average intensity of the total electron content (TEC) variations over specified periods in the ...

KDAC6 alters cell morphology and motility through positive and negative modulation of F‐actin distribution

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KDAC6 has been associated with cell motility and actin structures, but specific domain contributions are not established. The two catalytic domains have differential effects on motility and F‐actin regulation, affecting cortical F‐actin density, motility, stress fibers, and cell spreading.

Analysis of mesoscopic damage evolution in freeze-thawed sandstone under dynamic disturbance

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
To investigate the damage evolution of rock masses in cold regions under different disturbance conditions, red sandstone samples are subjected to freeze-thaw cycles and dynamic disturbance tests.

The C‐terminal domain of yeast Arginyltransferase1 is essential for its catalytic activity

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Arginyltransferase 1 (Ate1), a eukaryotic enzyme, catalyses arginylation, transferring arginine from tRNA‐Arg to the amino terminus of the target protein. Overexpression of Ate1 in yeast is lethal and is dependent on arginylation. This study elucidates how mutations in the cofactor‐binding and active site of Ate1 and truncation of its structural ...

Functional leaf traits of understory species: strategies to different disturbance severities

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
The specific leaf area (SLA) has been related to environmental disturbances, showing a positive correlation between the disturbances intensities and SLA in a plant community.
