The Momentum of ‘Developed’: Bodies of Water, Aging Bodies and Malta's Interventions at the UN

History, EarlyView.
Abstract Histories of major powers continue to shape how many scholars conceptualize internationalism. By focusing on Malta's interventions at the UN challenges, this article challenges such narrative. In particular, it examines Arvid Pardo's 1967 petition that the seabed be reconceived and protected as the ‘common heritage of mankind’ and Vincent ...

Mock Observations: Morphological Analysis of Galaxies in TNG100 Simulations

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
In this study, we investigate the morphology of galaxies in the TNG100 simulation by applying mock observation techniques and compare the results with the observational data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

Revisiting the Milky Way stellar long bar and the 3 kpc arm★

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. One of the most difficult and unexplored regions of the Milky Way is the highly extincted in-plane central region within the Galactic coordinates 10◦ ≲ |ℓ| ≲ 30◦, |b| ≲ 3◦, where we have the long-bar and 3 kpc arm with intermediate-age stellar ...

Humble beginnings of the Australian giant wood moth (Endoxyla cinereus): A century‐old mystery solved

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The Australian giant wood moth (Endoxyla cinereus) feeds within the galls of scale insects (Apiomorpha) before transitioning into its wood‐boring eucalypt larval phase. This transitionary phase may be key to its multi‐year development, at the end of which it can produce over 100 000 eggs.

The Properties of Globular Clusters and Elqui Associated with the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy

The Astronomical Journal
To identify globular clusters (GCs) belonging to Sagittarius, we conducted verification from multiple aspects and carried out a detailed analysis of member GCs and the associated objectives. From the cluster catalog of E. L. Hunt & S.

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

Integrative 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.

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

Integrative 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.

An Updated Efficient Galaxy Morphology Classification Model Based on ConvNeXt Encoding with UMAP Dimensionality Reduction

The Astronomical Journal
We present an enhanced unsupervised machine learning (UML) module within our previous USmorph classification framework featuring two components: (1) hierarchical feature extraction via a pretrained ConvNeXt convolutional neural network with transfer ...

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

Animal 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.

Longitudinal and cross‐sectional perspectives on elementary school children's post‐error slowing in reading and arithmetic

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the development of primary school children's error‐related adjustments in reading and arithmetic, both cross‐sectionally and longitudinally. Aims We aimed to uncover monitoring‐based cognitive control processes and often‐overlooked strategy use in academic tasks requiring a balancing of speed and accuracy ...
