A Flat-bottomed Buried Crater and Paleo-layered Structures Revealed at the Von Kármán Crater Using Lunar Penetrating Radar

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Impact cratering is the most common geological process occurring on terrestrial planets. The morphologies of impact craters reflect not only the impact conditions but the target properties as well.

Six‐ and Twelve‐Month Changes in Body Composition and 24‐h Energy Expenditure After a Very Low‐Calorie Ketogenic Diet

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study assessed changes in body composition and 24‐h energy metabolism at 6 and 12 months after initiation of a 1‐month very low‐calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) in women with obesity. Methods Seventeen women with obesity who completed a 1‐month VLCKD underwent a 4‐week transition phase with carbohydrate reintroduction, followed by

Dietary Protein Reduction During Isocaloric Conditions Reduces Body Weight in Men With Overweight or Obesity

Obesity, EarlyView.
Protein restriction, while meeting minimum requirements, induced weight loss and increased FGF21 in men with obesity under isocaloric conditions, without caloric restriction. ABSTRACT Objective Dietary protein reduction increases plasma fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) and energy requirements in lean men under eucaloric conditions.

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective

Oikos, EarlyView.
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Locations of New Craters Produced by Observed Lunar Impacts

, 2015
The Meteoroid Environment Office (MEO) has been observing lunar flashes which may produce impact craters detectable by Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO). There have been over 300 flashes observed in an 8+ year time span of routine observations from MSFC

Do cultural taboos regulate hunting in transitioning Indigenous communities? The case of the Idu Mishmi of Northeast India

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract There is rising recognition of resource‐use rights of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) within wildlife conservation. Historically, sociocultural institutions ensured wildlife sustainability in many IPLC areas. However, the future viability of such institutions is uncertain as IPLCs change in response to external pressures and ...

Oxygen isotopes and the moon-forming giant impact.

, 2001
We have determined the abundances of 16O, 17O, and 18O in 31 lunar samples from Apollo missions 11, 12, 15, 16, and 17 using a high-precision laser fluorination technique.
