Implementation of the Novel Duo‐Grid in GFDL's FV3 Dynamical Core
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023 The gnomonic cubed‐sphere grid has excellent accuracy and uniformity, but the “kink” in the coordinates at the cube edges in the halo region can leave an imprint of the cube in the solution, and requires special edge handling.

Is Xenopus laevis introduction linked with Ranavirus incursion, persistence and spread in Chile? [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Ranaviruses have been associated with amphibian, fish and reptile mortality events worldwide and with amphibian population declines in parts of Europe. Xenopus laevis is a widespread invasive amphibian species in Chile.

Class A Scavenger Receptors Are Used by Frog Virus 3 During Its Cellular Entry
Viruses, 2019 Frog virus 3 (FV3) is the type species of the genus Ranavirus (family Iridoviridae). FV3 and FV3-like viruses are globally distributed infectious agents with the capacity to replicate in three vertebrate classes (teleosts, amphibians, and reptiles).

Piperine disrupts the OFF state of the resting thick filament of rat skeletal muscle, enhancing dynamic contractility in a fibre‐type‐dependent manner [PDF]
The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 18, Page 7739-7771, 15 September 2026.Abstract figure legend We investigated the effects of piperine on (1) the structure of the resting thick filament and (2) dynamic contractility in fibres and intact slow (soleus) and fast (extensor digitorum longus, EDL) rat muscles, respectively. The structure of the resting thick filament was assessed pre‐ and post‐piperine incubation using small ...

Expression of frog virus 3 genes is impaired in mammalian cell lines [PDF]
Virology Journal, 2008 Frog virus 3 (FV3) is a large DNA virus that is the prototypic member of the family Iridoviridae. To examine levels of FV3 gene expression we generated a polyclonal antibody against the FV3 protein 75L.

Salt in the Wound: Assessing Pathogen Susceptibility in Amphibian Populations Across a Gradient of Salt Pollution [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.The survival function of nine larval wood frog populations and their viral loads when exposed to FV3. The populations were collected as eggs from a range of salt‐polluted ponds. Viral load data are means ±1 SE. The populations are ordered in terms of the saltiness of their natal ponds.
