Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

Optimal Reactive Power Planning Using FACTS Devices for Voltage Stability Enhancement in Power Transmission Systems

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Series and Shunt Reactive compensation can be used to improve voltage stability. The L‐index and Fast Voltage Stability Index are used to evaluate stability. Cost of reactive compensation is included directly in the optimization process. Multi‐objective optimization determines the optimal sizing of FACTS devices.

Design and Optimization of a Robust Wide‐Area Damping Controller for Mitigating Inter‐Area Oscillations in Wind‐Integrated Power Systems

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In power networks, low‐frequency oscillations—particularly inter‐area oscillations—pose a serious threat to system stability because of disruptions like short‐circuit faults and the increasing use of renewable energy sources like wind farms. To lessen the negative impacts of time delays when sending distant signals, this study presents a novel

Haplotype‐resolved genome and pan‐genome graphs reveal the impacts of structural variation on functional genome and feather colors in chickens

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
This study built a Wenchang chicken haplotype genome and integrated it with 29 others to create a chicken pangenome atlas. Analysis of 354 chickens revealed 185,205 structural variations (SVs), with one‐third derived from homology‐based and transposable elements.

Analyzing Beach Recreationists' Preferences for the Reduction of Jellyfish Blooms: Economic Results from a Stated-Choice Experiment in Catalonia, Spain. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Jellyfish outbreaks and their consequences appear to be on the increase around the world, and are becoming particularly relevant in the Mediterranean. No previous studies have quantified tourism losses caused by jellyfish outbreaks.

Real-Time Jellyfish Classification and Detection Based on Improved YOLOv3 Algorithm

open access: yesSensors, 2021
In recent years, jellyfish outbreaks have frequently occurred in offshore areas worldwide, posing a significant threat to the marine fishery, tourism, coastal industry, and personal safety. Effective monitoring of jellyfish is a vital method to solve the

Applications of bioactive herbal extracts in dressing materials for skin wound repair: Ingredients, mechanisms and innovations

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract The skin, as the body's largest organ, plays essential roles in protection, immune regulation, and homeostasis. Skin trauma, especially chronic wounds such as diabetic ulcers, poses significant clinical challenges. Traditional treatments, while often effective, can be costly and pose risks.

Identification of Safety and Quality Parameters for Preparation of Jellyfish Based Novel Food Products

open access: yesFoods, 2019
Edible jellyfish are mainly consumed and marketed in Southeastern Countries, generally produced by a multi-phase drying process, using mixtures of salt and alum. Recently, jellyfish have become very attractive also for Western food markets.

Deterministic Factors Overwhelm Stochastic Environmental Fluctuations as Drivers of Jellyfish Outbreaks. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Jellyfish outbreaks are increasingly viewed as a deterministic response to escalating levels of environmental degradation and climate extremes. However, a comprehensive understanding of the influence of deterministic drivers and stochastic environmental ...

Links between jellyfish and microbes in a jellyfish dominated fjord [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2006
Research on the impact of mass aggregations of jellyfish on foodweb structure has mainly focused on trophic control of copepods and fish larvae, while impacts on lower trophic levels have received little attention. Jellyfish release nutrients and dissolved organic matter through their activities. Hence, both direct and cascading impacts of jellyfish on
