Airborne Bacterial Communities: Diversity, Survival Strategies and Functional Roles in the Atmosphere. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
This mini‐review synthesises evidence on the taxonomic patterns of airborne microorganisms and the selective pressures they face. We highlight key conserved physiological traits, such as DNA repair and desiccation tolerance, which enable stress‐tolerant members to survive and suggest their potential for activity within the atmospheric environment ...

Emergence, spread, and impact of high-pathogenicity avian influenza H5 in wild birds and mammals of South America and Antarctica. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract The currently circulating high‐pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) virus of the subtype H5 causes variable illness and death in wild and domestic birds and mammals, as well as in humans. This virus evolved from the Goose/Guangdong lineage of the HPAI H5 virus, which emerged in commercial poultry in China in 1996, spilled over into wild birds,

Gardening Pocillopora spp. fragments and their potential for rebuilding reef systems in the southern Mexican Pacific

Restoration Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 8, November 2023., 2023
The degradation of coral reefs during the last decades has turned attention toward management and restoration interventions. This study seeks to operationalize coral gardening of Pocillopora spp. fragments in low profile bottom‐anchored nurseries and to compare survival and growth patterns between sites, time, and fragment size in the southern Mexican ...

Avian influenza overview June–September 2023

EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Between 24 June and 1 September 2023, highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) outbreaks were reported in domestic (25) and wild (482) birds across 21 countries in Europe. Most of these outbreaks appeared to be clustered along coastlines with only few HPAI virus detections inland.

Kinematics and Convergent Tectonics of the Northwestern South American Plate During the Cenozoic

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
Abstract The interaction of the northern Nazca and southwestern Caribbean oceanic plates with northwestern South America (NWSA) and the collision of the Panama‐Choco arc (PCA) have significant implications on the evolution of the northern Andes. Based on a quantitative kinematic reconstruction of the Caribbean and Farallon/Farallon‐derived plates, we ...

Perspective elucidating the physiology of a microbial cell: Neidhardt's Holy Grail

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 120, Issue 1, Page 54-59, July 2023., 2023
It is still not understood how bacterial or archaeal cells truly function and how they maintain their “live,” highly ordered, and low entropy (S) state. Future studies in microbiology can help to address this issue, but this will require combining reductionist approaches (in vitro, high entropy, disordered) with a strong focus on the continually ...

Elevated and atmospheric‐level methane consumption by soil methanotrophs of three grasslands in China

Grassland Research, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page 85-96, June 2023., 2023
Grassland soils are methane (CH4) sinks, but their capacities vary between grassland types. In this study, atmospheric CH4 consumption occurred in steppe and meadows but not in pasture. All three soils consumed elevated CH4. Methanotroph community differences between the three soils explain the variation in CH4 consumption. Abstract Background Methane (

The green side of social innovation: Using sustainable development goals to classify environmental impacts of rural grassroots initiatives

Environmental Policy and Governance, Volume 32, Issue 6, Page 459-477, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Social innovations are grassroots processes aiming to achieve impacts beyond an individual level and towards a broader societal good. The environmental dimension of impacts refers to any direct change to the environment resulting from social innovation activities, products, or services, which are not addressed by pre‐existing systems.

Multiple distant origins for green sea turtles aggregating off Gorgona Island in the Colombian eastern Pacific. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Mitochondrial DNA analyses have been useful for resolving maternal lineages and migratory behavior to foraging grounds (FG) in sea turtles. However, little is known about source rookeries and haplotype composition of foraging green turtle aggregations in
