Effect of Salinity Stress on Gut–Brain–Gonad Axis in the Red‐Eared Slider (Trachemys scripta elegans)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The increase in salinity leads to changes in the gut microbiota and metabolites of Trachemys scripta elegans, affecting the synthesis and secretion of neurotransmitters or precursors, which can inhibit the secretion of reproductive hormones and affect the self‐renewal and differentiation process of spermatogonial stem cells.

Stellar Population Synthesis in AGN Host Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We are interested in the stellar content in the central region of active galaxies. In this aim, we perform stellar population synthesis of the integrated starlight in the Optical and NIR using a mathematical method (Pelat, 1997, MNRAS 284, 365) dedicated

Response of Fecal Bacteria and Fungi to Tannin‐Rich Diets in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon): Evidence from Both Feeding Experiments and Field Investigations

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Feeding with tannin‐rich diets altered the fecal microbial composition and increased the relative abundance of tannin‐degrading microbes. We hypothesize that fecal bacteria and fungi may play important roles in helping herbivores adapt to tannin‐rich diets but respond to different tannin concentrations varies.

The Great Cosmic Silence: What Does the Fermi Paradox Tell About the Future of Humanity?

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how institutional time horizons shape the long‐term survival prospects of human technological civilisation. While research on global catastrophic and existential risks has expanded, the temporal structures of political‐economic institutions remain underexamined.

Evolution and Stellar Content of AGN Host Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this dissertation, Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and their host galaxies are discussed. Together with transitional events, such as supernovae and gamma-ray bursts, AGN are the most energetic phenomena in the Universe.

Genotyping Contemporary Captive and Historical Wild Western Lowland Gorillas Indicates Captive Breeding Is Maintaining Genetic Diversity in a Critically Endangered Primate

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Captive populations of threatened species risk losing genetic diversity over time. We evaluated the genetic status of contemporary captive western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) at Howletts and Port Lympne and compared this with specimens from a historical wild population.

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

Central dark matter density cuspiness in low surface brightness galaxies: a stellar kinematics approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We present preliminary results from spectroscopic observations of a sample of 11 low surface brightness galaxies (LSBs). We measured the stellar and gaseous kinematics along their major and minor axes.

DiskScissors: Cutting Arbitrary‐Topology Solids for Bijective Mapping

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract An algorithm for cutting solid objects in a topology‐controlled manner is presented. Concretely, given a loop on the object boundary, a disk‐topology cut surface bounded by the loop is constructed in the interior. In contrast to various previous approaches, both disk topology and conformance to the prescribed loop are ensured by construction ...
