The ecclesiastical fight against storm‐makers in the Latin west
Early Medieval Europe, EarlyView.This paper studies the strategies used by the Church to fight against the storm‐makers. These figures were said to cause the storms that ruined crops, and during Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages in the Visigothic and Frankish kingdoms were subject to punishment and constraints.

Lightning Performance on Overhead Distribution Lines : After Improvement Field Observation [PDF]
ITB Journal of Engineering Science, 2009 Two feeders of 20 kV overhead distribution lines which are located in a high lightning density area are chosen to be observed as a field study due to their good lightning performance after improvement of lightning protection system.

The Past Requires Reconciliation
The Ecumenical Review, EarlyView.Abstract This article presents three cases from the Orthodox Christian past that concern the defence of individuals and religious groups whose views differed from those of the official Orthodox Church. It also highlights the significance of the past in the Orthodox Christian context as a tradition that largely influences the behaviour of Orthodox ...

Human IDO2 exhibits unique binding affinities distinct to those of human IDO1
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Although indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase 2 (IDO2) is highly homologous to IDO1, it displays markedly lower catalytic activity. We found that IDO2 binds L‐tryptophan (L‐Trp) in a flipped orientation stabilized by the IDO2‐specific residue His143. Replacement of His143 with the IDO1‐equivalent tyrosine restored an IDO1‐like binding mode and increased ...

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.Abstract This article examines how salient sustainability risks from near‐miss natural disasters influence board composition. Using a difference‐in‐differences design, I find that firms located in counties neighboring disaster‐affected areas significantly increase the presence of directors with sustainability expertise following the disaster.

Axial muscle‐fibre orientations in larval zebrafish
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 517-533, April 2025.In 4 days post‐fertilization zebrafish larvae, the fast axial muscle fibres follow helical trajectories that taper towards the tail. Adjacent muscle fibres form substantial angles relative to each other to accommodate this pattern. Using a novel semi‐automatic method, we quantified 3D fibre angles over the whole muscle volume.

Microspherules Formed by Lightning Strikes
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Natural microspherules are formed by high‐temperature processes and are present throughout the geologic record to the present day. We report the discovery of large numbers of microspherules recovered from a rock pavement in the Pilbara region, Western Australia.
