Environmental and health implications of Pb-bearing particles in settled urban dust from an arid city affected by Pb–Zn factory emissions [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
Metal-rich particles originating from non-ferrous metallurgical activities are the primary source of atmospheric metals in urban environments. These particles vary in size, morphology, and elemental compositions and they undergo weathering processes that

Non-power positional number representation systems, bijective numeration, and the Mesoamerican discovery of zero [PDF]

Heliyon, 2021
Pre-Columbian Mesoamerica was a fertile crescent for the development of number systems. A form of vigesimal system seems to have been present from the first Olmec civilization onwards, to which succeeding peoples made contributions.

Vulnerability of marine megafauna to global at-sea anthropogenic threats. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened ...

On the Non‐Linear Nature of Long‐Term Sea Surface Temperature Global Trends

Earth and Space Science
The year‐to‐year rate and acceleration of the changes in global sea surface temperatures (SSTs) for 1870–2022 are determined using non‐linear techniques. Our methodology identifies the non‐linear, long‐term tendencies of the warming, revealing subtle but

Spatio‐temporal downscaling emulator for regional climate models

Environmetrics, Volume 34, Issue 7, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Regional climate models (RCM) describe the mesoscale global atmospheric and oceanic dynamics and serve as dynamical downscaling models. In other words, RCMs use atmospheric and oceanic climate output from general circulation models (GCM) to develop a higher resolution climate output.

Expert perspectives on global biodiversity loss and its drivers and impacts on people

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 21, Issue 2, Page 94-103, March 2023., 2023
Despite substantial progress in understanding global biodiversity loss, major taxonomic and geographic knowledge gaps remain. Decision makers often rely on expert judgement to fill knowledge gaps, but are rarely able to engage with sufficiently large and diverse groups of specialists.

Metamorphosis of spiny lobsters (Panulirus argus and Panulirus guttatus) in the Yucatan Current as inferred from the distribution of pueruli and final stage phyllosomata

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 66, Issue 9, Page 3421-3438, September 2021., 2021
Abstract For spiny lobsters (Palinuridae), the co‐occurrence of final‐stage larvae (phyllosomata) and postlarvae (pueruli) in sampling stations over oceanic waters is indicative of metamorphosis zones, some of which have been found in boundary currents. We hypothesized that metamorphosis of Panulirus argus and P.
