ABSTRACT Illegal gold mining has emerged as a major sustainability threat in the Amazon, eroding Indigenous rights, forest integrity, and climate mitigation efforts. This study examines how international market incentives relate to the expansion of illegal mining and associated deforestation within the Yanomami Indigenous Territory (YIT) from 2008 to ...

Controlling the Collective Transport of Large Passive Particles With Suspensions of Microorganisms
Directional light stimuli induce the accumulation of microalgae in suspensions of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. This accumulation triggers large scale bioconvection rolls capable of macroscale transport. Exploiting these bioconvective flows enables to collectively transport of hundreds of large passive particles, paving the way for future applications in ...

Mind and Cosmos as Throughput Systems: A Convergence Through the Throughput Model
ABSTRACT This paper advances a conceptual and mathematical foundations approach by applying the throughput model (TPM) to cosmic phenomena, reframing the universe as an extended information processing system. TPM's four stages, Perception, Information, Judgement and Decision Choice, are reformulated in explicit information‐theoretic and dynamical ...
