Abiotic Siliceous Botryoids on Iron Oxyhydroxide Filaments From Hydrothermal Vents in the Southwest Indian Ocean

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Fe‐oxidizing microorganisms in deep‐sea hydrothermal vent environments are often used as analogs for primordial life on Earth. In fact, Earth's oldest purported microfossils are preserved as hematite filaments in a jasper rock dated between 4,160 and 4,280 million years and are thought to have originated in a seafloor hydrothermal environment.

Degree and class of caustics by reflection for a generic source [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We are interested in the study of caustics by reflection of irreducible algebraic planar curves (in the complex projective plane). We prove the birationality of the caustic map (for a generic light position).

The Actor in 4 dimensions: A relevant methodology to analyze local environmental governance and inform Ostrom’s social-ecological systems framework

open access: yesMethodsX, 2019
This paper presents the Actor in 4 dimensions (A4D) model as a complementary tool to the Social-ecological systems framework (SESF) in order to better integrate individual and groups’ representations into local environmental governance analysis.

A novel carcinogenic mouse model by site‐directed insertion of tandem human HRAS large DNA fragment into 15E1 site

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 8, Issue 11, Page 1983-1996, November 2025.
The NF‐hHRAS mouse model was generated through Chr15 E1 locus‐targeted integration of a 21 kb multicopy HRAS gene cluster. The NF‐hHRAS model demostrated tissue‐specific expression of human HRAS across multiple organs and low spontaneous tumorigenesis.

Exceptional preservation of eye structure in arthropod visual predators from the Middle Jurassic

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Understanding how ancient animals perceived their environment is difficult due to a lack of fossilized eye structures. Here, the authors reconstruct the compound eye of a 160-million-year old thylacocephalan arthropod, Dollocaris, finding evidence of ...

Gravity Modeling of Lunar Lava Tubes: Insights From a Terrestrial Analog

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract The exploration of lunar lava tubes can address challenges of human habitation on the Moon by identifying natural shelters against radiation, temperature extremes, and micrometeoroid impacts. This study shows the feasibility of detecting lunar lava tubes with gravimetry using Ape Cave in Washington State, USA, as a terrestrial analog. Ape Cave'

Organic Horticultural Seed Trials in Wales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Under the organic standards, producers are required to use organic seed. However, a derogation can be obtained from the appropriate certification body that allows the use of (untreated) non organic seed where appropriate organic material is not available.

Evolution of the redox-altered, two-tiered Muralha Flow in the Fronteira Oeste Rift, southern Paraná Volcanic Province

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
The thorough redox alteration of a lava flow is an undescribed feature in intraplate basaltic provinces. The Early Cretaceous (134.5 Ma) Paraná Province displays that alteration in the major Muralha Flow.

Assessing the response of micro-eukaryotic diversity to the Great Acceleration using lake sedimentary DNA

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Sedimentary DNA can be used to infer how organisms responded to changing environmental conditions over millennia. Here, the authors use sedimentary DNA of micro-eukaryotes in low-elevation (human-impacted) and high-elevation (more pristine) lakes to show
