DNA barcoding for identification of species involved in wildlife strikes at Brazilian airports
A collaborative network of 42 Brazilian airports applied DNA barcoding to identify 80 species involved in wildlife strikes. Among them, 32 species (17 birds and 15 bats) were not currently available in Brazil's wildlife strike reporting database, underscoring the value of molecular tools for strengthening wildlife strike monitoring.

De novo or Salvage? Nucleotide Availability as a Driver of Bacterial Adaptation and Virulence
Bacterial pathogens survive in different host environments by switching between making nucleotides by de novo synthesis and scavenging them from the host. This flexibility supports growth and virulence making nucleotide metabolism an attractive therapeutic target.

Grid Optimization of Tunnel Oxide Passivated Back Contact Silicon Solar Cells
The grid pattern design of tunnel oxide passivated back contact silicon solar cells were optimized via device simulation and the estimated cell efficiency was correlated to the required Ag paste consumption. The absolute efficiency gain of zero‐busbar design over pad‐based contact design is more than 0.1%, with increasing advantage when the Ag paste ...

Socio‐Hydrology Modeling Captures How Inequalities Impact Community Flood Resilience
Abstract Socio‐hydrology models explore interactions between human and hydrological systems, enabling the analysis of dynamic feedbacks between society and flooding. Simplified conceptual models of socio‐hydrology often treat the social or human domain as single homogenous entities, failing to account for disparities among the communities that make up ...

Predicting Geomagnetic Activity in the Ascending and Declining Phases of the Solar Cycle
Abstract Most predictions of space climate, that is, the long‐term behavior of the solar‐terrestrial environment, have focused on forecasting the 11‐year sunspot cycle. Geomagnetic activity, on the other hand, has mainly been predicted in shorter, space weather timescales of up to days to weeks.
