Droughts and human impact in the ancient Uaymil region of the Maya lowlands inferred from a 2800‐year sedimentary archive at Lake Kaná, Mexico

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The relationship between the climate and societal transformation in Maya lowlands has long been debated, particularly the role of drought in shaping the civilization trajectory during the Classic Period. A high‐resolution, multi‐proxy, geochemical record from Lake Kaná, located in the underexplored Uaymil region of the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico ...

Modeling the Meteoroid Environment Far from the Ecliptic Plane

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
We describe a new version (numbered 3.1) of NASA’s Meteoroid Engineering Model, in which we extend the model to handle locations that lie more than a few degrees in latitude off the ecliptic plane.

Multi-station fireball observations combining all-sky spectroscopy and optical trajectory measurements

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Physics
Optical monitoring of fireballs can provide reconstructions of luminous trajectories and the derivation of heliocentric orbits, whereas spectral observations are able to supply information from an entirely different perspective, with composition and ...

The mesospheric metal layer topside: a possible connection to meteoroids [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2004
In the past, many studies have been carried out to demonstrate the influence of meteoroids on the atmospheric metal layer, observed roughly in the altitude range 80–105 km.

Choice Feminism and the Opt‐Out Phenomenon: Is It Possible to Speak of Free Will?

open access: yesGender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to question choice feminism in the light of the opt‐out phenomenon, through a thematic narrative analysis of the professional trajectories of five Brazilian women with university degrees. As a result of the research—and the main contribution to the advancement of knowledge in the field—it was found that although ...

Evaporation of high speed sporadic meteors [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2004
Recent measurements conducted at the Arecibo Observatory report high-speed sporadic meteors having velocities near 50 km/s. The results seem to indicate a bimodal velocity distribution in the sporadic meteors (maxima at ~20 km/s and ~50 km/s).

Shedding light on the parasite communities and diet of the deep‐sea shark Deania profundorum (Smith & Radcliffe, 1912) (Squaliform: Centrophoridae) from the Avilés Canyon (southern Bay of Biscay)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep‐sea elasmobranchs are less resilient to the increasing scale of anthropogenic impacts such as fisheries, owing to their life‐history traits. The necessity for proper management measures is hampered by the scant knowledge on these taxa and their biology. Here we provide the first comprehensive insight into the parasite infracommunities and

Electron microscopy‐based three‐dimensional subcellular imaging of plant male gametophyte

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The Aquilos2 Cryo‐FIB workflows provide practical routes for cryo‐electron tomography and volume imaging in plant structural biology. ABSTRACT Understanding cellular events in three dimensions (3D) is of great importance for the annotation and illustration of biological processes in a contextual way. Imaging techniques based on electron microscopy (EM),

Disintegration and Skipping Dynamics of Bilobate‐Shaped Meteoroids for Generating Ultra‐Long Strewn Fields

open access: yesEarth and Space Science
The longest known Aletai meteorite belt presents a unique phenomenon in meteoroid dynamics. To investigate its formation mechanism, this study introduces a bilobate‐shaped meteoroid model, emphasizing aerodynamic interactions and structure evolution. The

Autonomous spectrographic system to analyse the main elements of fireballs and meteors

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2018
We present a meteor observation system based on imaging CCD cameras, wide-field optics and a diffraction grating. This system is composed of two independent spectrographs with different configurations, which allows us to capture images of fireballs and ...
