V1663 Aquilae: A Fast Fe ii-type Nova that Formed Dust and Coronal Lines

open access: yesResearch Notes of the AAS
Abstract V1663 Aquilae was a rare nova that formed both dust and coronal emission lines. A spectrum from 157 days after peak brightness shows both thermal dust emission and coronal emission present at the same epoch. An earlier spectrum from 36 days post maximum captures the nova prior to the formation of either dust or high-excitation ...

Sustainable Graphene Oxide–Intercalated Bentonite Composite for the Effective Removal of Imidacloprid From Water: Adsorption Performance, Isotherm, and Kinetics

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental necessity for our existence, but its rapid contamination is causing devastating effects on the environment and health of living species worldwide. Adsorptive removal of pollutants is one of the popular water treatment techniques because of its simplicity, affordability, and the broad range of available adsorbents.

Assessing the viability of genebanked seeds from rare, wild plants native to the United States using the D.E.A.D. paradigm

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Genebanks must maintain viable seeds for decades. Seeds that germinate are clearly alive, but some seeds, often from wild populations, do not germinate because they are dormant, empty, aged, or damaged (D.E.A.D.). This work evaluates the effects of D.E.A.D.

V496 Scuti: Detection of CO emission and dust shell in a moderately fast Fe II nova

open access: yes, 2013
We present near-infrared and optical observations of moderately fast FeII-class Nova Scuti 2009 (V496 Sct) covering various phases; pre-maximum, early decline and nebular, during the first 10 months after its discovery followed by limited observations up to 2011 April.

Procrustean pseudo‐landmark methods in Python to measure massive quantities of leaf shape data

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise When examining leaf shapes that are different from one another, it can be difficult to compare both the overall leaf shape and points along the leaf margin in biologically and statistically meaningful ways. Methods To address this problem, we present a simple and user‐friendly leaf shape analysis method in Jupyter Notebook and Python ...

Ontogenetic changes and sexual dimorphism in the cranium and mandible of the Atlantic walrus (Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus L.)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Walruses have been an important subsistence and cultural resource for humans and have been exploited for millennia across their distribution. This exploitation has contributed to severe declines in several populations and local extirpations.

Comparative cranial biomechanics reveal macroevolutionary trends in theropod dinosaurs, with emphasis on Tyrannosauroidea

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Tyrannosaurus is viewed as a model organism in vertebrate paleontology, with numerous studies analyzing its feeding biomechanics. Nonetheless, the evolution of this feeding performance has been under‐addressed in Tyrannosauroidea, especially in basal tyrannosauroids. Here we used muscle‐force reconstruction and finite element analysis (FEA) to

Understanding the spacing of placodes in the eye: A comparative study across age and species

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The conjunctival placodes of the avian eye form in an intriguing and conserved sequence in a circular annulus around the cornea. These 13–16 placodes develop into papillae that are essential for inducing underlying intramembranous flat bones, known as scleral ossicles, which form an important part of the ocular skeleton.

Clinical Physical Exam Shows High Sensitivity for Detecting Labral Tears in Individuals With Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To determine the diagnostic performance of the combined use of radiographs and physical exam findings, compared with magnetic resonance arthrography (MRA) alone, for the primary diagnosis of labral tears in individuals with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome.
