Observations of changes in marine boundary layer clouds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Recent research outlined by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) highlights the response of marine boundary layer (MBL) clouds to warming associated with increasing greenhouse gases as a major contributor to uncertainties in model ...

From Lab to Landscape: Environmental Biohybrid Robotics for Ecological Futures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This Perspective explores environmental biohybrid robotics, integrating living tissues, microorganisms, and insects for operation in real‐world ecosystems. It traces the leap from laboratory experiments to forests, wetlands, and urban environments and discusses key challenges, development pathways, and opportunities for ecological monitoring and ...

Bayesian Bioeconomics of Marine Reserves [PDF]

open access: yes
We use Bayesian econometric methods to estimate dynamic bioeconomic models of marine reserve formation using simulated data and real data from the Gulf of Mexico reef fish fishery. We test the effects of reserves on fish growth and catchability.Resource /

Atlantic Herring - A Keystone Species in the Northwest Atlantic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) is one of the most important fishes in New England. This energy-rich species plays a vital role in the region's marine ecosystem, serving as food for many of the ocean's key predators.

Microbial Contribution to Soiling and Its Impact on Photovoltaic Module Soiling in Arid Zones of the Atacama Desert

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Microorganisms colonizing photovoltaic surfaces in the Atacama desert form biofilms that enhance particle adhesion and reduce energy yield. This study identifies UV‐resistant bacteria and carotenoid‐producing strains that interfere with PV performance.

Experimental Performance Evaluation of a Hydraulic PTO System for Centipede Wave Energy Converter

open access: yesInternational Journal of Coastal and Offshore Engineering, 2020
In the past decade, ocean and marine waves like other renewable energy sources attracted attention due to its high energy density. The most important part of a wave energy converter (WEC) is power take-off (PTO) system.

MARINE RESERVES FOR FISHERIES MANAGEMENT [PDF]

open access: yes
Conventional methods of regulating commercial fisheries restrict catch by limiting either the quantity or efficiency of fishing effort, or by putting direct limits on catch. These regulatory practices are neither feasible nor desirable for many fisheries,

Thermal Plasticity is Regulated by a Key MicroRNA During Range Expansion of an Invasive Fruit Fly

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Populations at the invasion front of Bactrocera dorsalis adapt through reduced phenotypic and gene expression plasticity, a phenomenon likely to be driven by genetic assimilation. We identify a key miRNA‐mediated regulatory axis, in which miR‐276b post‐transcriptionally represses thw, a conserved chitin‐binding gene critical to the cold‐tolerance ...

Mastering Complexity toward High‐Performance Multi‐Principal Element Alloy‐Based Films and Coatings: A Review on Microstructural Regulation and Property Optimization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review provides a comprehensive exploration of microstructure regulation strategies for multi‐principal element alloy‐based films and coatings, with a focus on the interplay between elemental composition, nanoscale architecture, heterostructures and interfacial engineering in tailoring their properties and functions. A systematic analysis of their
