From cities to refuges for pollinators: Urban practices for enhancing pollinator habitats in changing landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
A framework for the support of pollinators in urban areas is developed here, based on five pillars: nesting, flower resources, artificial support, management and society acceptance, with additional key elements from science and society. Society should incorporate strategies for pollinators as in this framework by means of co‐planning with stakeholders,

SDSS. IV. MaNGA: The Impact of the Acquisition of Gas with Opposite Angular Momentum on the Evolution of Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
A gaseous counterrotating galaxy is a galaxy containing a gas component with opposite angular momentum to the main stellar disk. The counterrotating gas provides direct evidence for the accretion of external material, a key aspect in hierarchical galaxy ...

Using the Outskirts of Galaxy Clusters to Determine Their Mass Accretion Rate

open access: yesGalaxies, 2016
We explore the possibility of using the external regions of galaxy clusters to measure their mass accretion rate (MAR). The main goal is to provide a method to observationally investigate the growth of structures on the nonlinear scales of galaxy ...

Tidal Tales of Minor Mergers: Star Formation in the Tidal Debris of Minor Mergers [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
How does the tidal debris of minor galaxy mergers contribute to structures in spiral galaxies or in the intergalactic medium? While major mergers are known to create structures such as tidal dwarf galaxies and star clusters within their tidal debris, less is known about minor mergers (mass ratios between a dwarf galaxy and disk galaxy of less than one ...

Gut Mycobiota of Three Rhinopithecus Species Provide New Insights Into the Association Between Diet and Environment

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study revealed the basic structures of gut mycobiota of three wild Rhinopithecus species. The gut mycobiota of Rhinopithecus showed close connection with their feeding habits, and there were associations between gut mycobiota and the host's living environments.

A Luminous X-Ray Active Galactic Nucleus in the Dwarf–Dwarf Galaxy Merger RGG 66

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the discovery of a luminous X-ray active galactic nucleus (AGN) in the dwarf galaxy merger RGG 66. The black hole is predicted to have a mass of M _BH ∼ 10 ^5.4 M _⊙ and to be radiating close to its Eddington limit ( L _bol / L _Edd ∼ 0.75 ...

Classifying merger stages with adaptive deep learning and cosmological hydrodynamical simulations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Hierarchical merging of galaxies plays an important role in galaxy formation and evolution. Mergers could trigger key evolutionary phases such as starburst activities and active accretion periods onto supermassive black holes at the centres of galaxies.
