ABSTRACT Aeolian deflationary events are erosive to static stages where sediment supply is insufficient to support bedform migration and preservation in the rock record. In the vicinity of shallow‐marine environments, inland rises of relative water table and associated generation of deflationary super surfaces may be driven by the onset of ...

Heidegger and Levinas on the phenomenology of the hand: Between work and gesture
Abstract This article explores how Heidegger and Levinas develop distinct phenomenological accounts of the hand. Both thinkers refuse to treat the hand as merely an anatomical organ, instead viewing it as an essential dimension of human existence. Yet their interpretations diverge sharply. In the first section, I show how Heidegger grounds the function

Abstract Our ability to imagine alternatives to reality is central to everyday cognition. Our competence in reasoning depends not only on our capacity to envisage the relevant facts, but also on our proficiency in simulating alternatives to them. I discuss how our skill in making deductive inferences depends on imagining possibilities. To illustrate, I

When NCX switches sides: Experimental and computational insights into Ca2+ regulation in the heart
Abstract figure legend Due to its presence inside the dyadic cleft, Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) builds a functional unit together with L‐type calcium channels and ryanodine receptors in the dyadic cleft. NCX acts bidirectionally (forward and reverse mode) dependent on extracellular calcium ([Ca2+]o) and sodium ([Na+]o) concentrations and the membrane ...

ABSTRACT Seasonal environmental fluctuations profoundly influence ectothermic vertebrates, regulating their physiology, metabolism, and life cycles. This study investigated the metabolic and morphometric seasonal dynamics of the subtropical sand lizard Liolaemus arambarensis, an endangered species endemic to the coastal dunes of southern Brazil.
