Abstract The genus Paulinella represents a rare, independent case of primary endosymbiosis, providing a unique system to study the early stages of organelle evolution. Here, we expand current understanding of primary plastid endosymbiosis through the discovery and characterization of two novel photosynthetic amoebae, Paulinella marae sp. nov.

Integrating Multiple Data Sources Improves Abundance Estimation in Spatial Capture–Recapture Models
This study demonstrates how integrating multiple data streams improves abundance estimation for a wide‐ranging marine population, eastern North Pacific blue whales. The application of this approach is valuable to accurately track population size which is critical to guide conservation and management strategies.

ABSTRACT The abundance of cetaceans in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean (ETP) is estimated using spatial/temporal density modeling and conventional line‐transect approaches. Line‐transect data are analyzed from 10 ship‐based visual sighting surveys from 1986 to 2006 that include 281,000 km of survey effort in a 19.4 million km2 study area.

Optimizing Jack-up vessel strategies for maintaining offshore wind farms [PDF]
In this paper we present a new two-stage stochastic mathematical programming model that determines the optimal jack-up vessel strategy for an offshore wind farm.

ABSTRACT Aeolian deflationary events are erosive to static stages where sediment supply is insufficient to support bedform migration and preservation in the rock record. In the vicinity of shallow‐marine environments, inland rises of relative water table and associated generation of deflationary super surfaces may be driven by the onset of ...

Abstract Planning for floating offshore wind development along the U.S. west coast has prompted questions about how this new ocean use may impact marine ecosystems. Previous research suggests that offshore wind farms will alter wind dynamics and upwelling in this region, but impacts on biogeochemistry have not yet been explored.

Characterization and Meteorological Drivers of Dust Events Over California's Central Valley
Abstract Dust events in California's Central Valley pose severe risks to public health, regional air quality, and transportation. Yet, the climatology and meteorological drivers of dust events in the region are poorly characterized due to sparse monitoring and limitations of satellite observations.
