Structural and Functional Properties of Araucaria araucana and Araucaria angustifolia Seed Proteins as a Plant‐Based Food Source

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 3, Issue 4, December 2025.
Morphologically, A. angustifolia seeds were significantly larger, while A. araucana exhibited more regular, triangular shapes. Proximate composition revealed a carbohydrate‐rich profile in both species, with a significantly higher lipid content in A. araucana. Amino acid analysis showed similar profiles, with high levels of aspartic and glutamic acids.

Löpönvaara: A new phosphorus‐rich iron meteorite from Finland

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 10, Page 2442-2457, October 2025.
Abstract Löpönvaara is a rare new phosphorus‐rich iron meteorite find from Löpönvaara, Finland. The ~164 g meteorite was discovered in 2017 from the same area as the ungrouped Lieksa pallasite. Löpönvaara was classified as an ungrouped iron meteorite due to its unusually high concentration of P (>4 wt%), coupled with a moderate concentration of Ni (~11

Deep Source Regions for Back‐Arc Volcanism in the Patagonian Slab Window Imaged by Finite Frequency P and SH Body Wave Tomography

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 17, 16 September 2025.
Abstract The subduction of the Chile Ridge beneath South America beginning 12–16 Myr ago opened a gap in the subducting slab beneath southern Patagonia, which migrated northward and is located today at 46°S. Geodynamic processes associated with the slab window are poorly understood.

A case of allosuckling in wild guanacos (Lama guanicoe)

Journal of Ethology, 2008
Although allosuckling, the lactation of non-filial offspring, can be a costly behavior, it has been reported in several species across a wide range of mammalian orders. Monotocous species such as ungulates exhibit this behavior less frequently than polytocous species, and most cases have been reported among captive specimens.
