Abstract Particles sinking from the surface to the deep ocean play a key role in the biological carbon pump, whose efficiency depends partly on sinking velocities. Over the last decade, in situ imaging has enabled critical advances in our understanding of particle dynamics in the ocean.

Scale‐aware impact modelling for atmospheric releases of radioactive material
Since the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster in 2011, the UK has developed the process of Joint Agency Modelling (JAM), which provides advice to government in case of atmospheric releases of radioactive material. The timely deployment of JAM requires a prior estimate of the extent to which impacts could reach. Thus, to develop a fast pre‐calculator

The influence of a cooling water system on waterbird habitat use in a coastal environment
This study investigated the impact of a cooling water system at a nuclear power plant in northern Europe on coastal waterbird habitat use. In winter, the cooling water system provided preferential areas for waterbirds with warm productive waters, and, more importantly, with ice‐free areas.

ABSTRACT Background Thrombotic events (TEs) account for approximately 40%–67% of deaths in untreated paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH). C5 inhibitor treatment (e.g., eculizumab and ravulizumab) greatly reduces the incidence of TEs in patients with PNH, but data on the characteristics of PNH patients experiencing TEs are limited.
