Transition From Land to Sea: Comparative Genomics Illuminates the Adaptive Evolution of the Intertidal Spider

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Spiders are renowned for their ecological versatility and silk‐based innovations in materials science, yet marine environments remain virtually uncolonized by this predominantly terrestrial lineage. A striking exception is the obligate intertidal spider genus Desis, whose members have evolved extraordinary physiological and behavioural ...

Designing Proposal Distributions for Particle Filters using Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation

, 2023
State-space models are used to describe and analyse dynamical systems. They are ubiquitously used in many scientific fields such as signal processing, finance and ecology to name a few. Particle filters are popular inferential methods used for state-space methods. Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation (INLA), an approximate Bayesian inference method,

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 445-461, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Unstable Drainage Dynamics During Multiphase Flow Across Capillary Heterogeneities

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract We use novel, fast 4D Synchrotron X‐ray imaging with large field‐of‐view to reveal pore‐ and macro‐scale drainage dynamics during gas–brine flow through a layered sandstone rock sample. We show that a single centimeter‐scale layer, similar in pore size distribution to the surrounding rock but with reduced connectivity, temporarily inhibits ...

Exploring the Implications of the Russo‐Ukrainian War on Natural Gas Usage and Consequent Impacts on Air Quality in Northern Italy

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract This study examines how the Russo‐Ukrainian war affected natural gas consumption and air quality in northern Italy. The conflict disrupted European natural gas supplies, leading to a reduction in residential natural gas use. We investigated how this reduction affected air quality, focusing on residential wood combustion (RWC) as an alternative

Model selection for mixture model via integrated nested Laplace approximation

Electronics Letters, 2015
To cluster or partition data/signal, expectation‐and‐maximisation or variational approximation with a mixture model (MM), which is a parametric probability density function represented as a weighted sum of K̂ densities, is often used. However, model selection to find the underlying K̂ is one of the key concerns in MM clustering, since the desired ...

Mapping spatial drivers of rice productivity: A case study of Inpari 36 and 37 in West Java with BYM2-INLA

Journal of Geospatial Science and Analytics
West Java is one of Indonesia’s largest rice-producing provinces. However, rice production has declined by 23.07% since 2018 due to land conversion. Therefore, this study investigates the factors influencing rice productivity by modeling and mapping the ...
