Analysis of evolution scenarios of Santiago Island energy sector in Cabo Verde

Energy Reports, 2020
The main purpose of this work is to establish and analyzedistinct scenarios for the evolution of the energy system of the island of Santiago in Cabo Verde in the long term, that is, within the time horizon of 2040. The LEAP (Long-Rang Energy Alternatives

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Complexity Quantification of Driving Scenarios with Dynamic Evolution Characteristics

Entropy
Complexity is a key measure of driving scenario significance for scenario-based autonomous driving tests. However, current methods for quantifying scenario complexity primarily focus on static scenes rather than dynamic scenarios and fail to represent ...

Evolution of spatio-temporal drought characteristics: validation, projections and effect of adaptation scenarios [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2012
Drought events develop in both space and time and they are therefore best described through summary joint spatio-temporal characteristics, such as mean duration, mean affected area and total magnitude.

Quantifying the Evolution of Giant Panda Habitats in Sichuan Province under Different Scenarios

Diversity, 2022
The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is a relic species in China and a flagship species in the field of endangered wildlife conservation. The conservation of the giant panda’s habitat has gained widespread attention for this reason.

Computational inference of scenarios for α-proteobacterial genome evolution [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004
The α-proteobacteria, from which mitochondria are thought to have originated, display a 10-fold genome size variation and provide an excellent model system for studies of genome size evolution in bacteria. Here, we use computational approaches to infer ancestral gene sets and to quantify the flux of genes along the branches of the α-proteobacterial ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Physical approximations for the nonlinear evolution of perturbations in dark energy scenarios

, 2008
The abundance and distribution of collapsed objects such as galaxy clusters will become an important tool to investigate the nature of dark energy and dark matter.

An open quantum system approach to the B-mesons system [PDF]

, 2003
In this talk we consider a non standard evolution for the neutral B-mesons system, namely, an evolution in the open quantum systems framework. Such approach is justified by the very high sensitivity of experiments studying CP-violating phenomena in the B-

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our
