All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

Slope and sediment size in the development of pebble and cobble beaches with low permeability
We studied beaches composed of coarse‐grained beaches. In spite that the occurrence of an impermeable layer at a low depth that reduces its permeability, the correlation between the beach slope and the sediment size corresponds to what was expected, and the underlying and cohesive sediment reached the same slope of the beach.

The ontogenetic development, innervation, and morphology of the shoulder joint and forelimb muscles were investigated in 11 anuran species. The results reveal largely conserved splitting patterns of the dorsal and ventral pre‐muscle masses, alongside interspecific variation in muscle subdivision and morphology.

Laboratory studies show KS has electroconductive properties with the ability to trap and transport protons in neurotransductive processes (Grotthuss proton shuttling). This maintains electrochemical gradients and fluxes at the neuronal cell surface in neural activation. Such processes are central to neuronal cell signaling and communication.

ABSTRACT Termites are landscape geo‐engineers whose nesting activities substantially modify the physical and chemical properties of soils. Fossilised termite nests commonly constitute the only identifiable evidence of ancient termite activity and represent valuable trace fossil archives for reconstructing past environments.

Food availability impacts oxygen isotope composition in freshwater snail shells
Abstract Freshwater mollusk shells serve as valuable archives for the reconstruction of past environmental conditions as they record water temperatures in their stable isotopic compositions during biomineralization. Yet, the impact of food availability on these isotopic records has never been fully explored.
