Parental Age, Inbreeding and Incubation Method Influence Extremely Low Hatching Success in the Ex‐Situ Population of the Extinct in the Wild Sihek

Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 86-99, February 2026.
Reproductive success rates are a key parameter determining the recovery potential of ex‐situ managed threatened species, with high rates often being required to produce offspring for wild releases while ensuring ex situ population viability. Here, we quantify reproductive success rates in the Extinct in the Wild sihek (Guam kingfisher) and find ...

Bridging the Gap Between the Earth's Ionosphere and Plasmasphere

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 23, 16 December 2025.
Abstract Cold plasma distribution in the ionosphere‐plasmasphere system governs wave‐particle interactions, plasma energization and loss, and radio wave propagation. A longstanding observational gap at altitudes ∼ ${\sim} $800–8,000 km has largely prevented studying the coupled dynamics of the two regions.

Impact of Filtering Methods in the Assessment of COSMIC Electron Density Profiles Over the Brazilian Region: Excluding Profiles With Negative Values Is the Best Strategy?

Radio Science, Volume 60, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Global Navigation Satellite Systems radio occultation (RO) is a valuable and relevant source of information from the atmosphere. Many efforts have been made to provide methods of validation of RO profiles, however, no clear methodology for filtering the profiles from RO can be easily found.

Minisatellite polymorphism as a tool to distinguish closely related Lactococcus lactis strains.

, 2005
International audienceGenome plasticity is considered as a means for bacteria to adapt to their environment. Plasticity in tandem repeat sequences on bacterial genomes has been recently exploited to trace the epidemiology of pathogens.

Thermospheric Density Disturbances During the 2015 St. Patrick's Day Geomagnetic Storm: Model–Observation Comparisons and Analysis of Intense Polar Density Spikes

Space Weather, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Drag affecting satellites in low Earth orbit varies significantly during geomagnetic storms due to changes in thermospheric density. While neutral density can be inferred from satellite measurements, such data sets are limited and restrict neutral density/orbit prediction capabilities.

Molecular-genetic characterization of the human non-hypervariable GC-rich minisatellite UPS29 of gene CENTB5

, 2007
Human minisatellite UPS29 localized in one of CENTB5 introns was studied in silico and using molecular genetic analysis. For the first time there were revealed seven UPS29 alleles which contained 6-24 repeated units.

Thermospheric Density, Composition, and Temperature From GOES‐R/SUVI Solar Occultations

Space Weather, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract A new data set of atomic oxygen (O) and molecular nitrogen (N2 ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}$) number density profiles, along with thermospheric temperature profiles between 180 and 500 km, has been developed. These profiles are derived from solar occultation measurements made by the Solar Ultraviolet Imager (SUVI) on the GOES‐R satellites, using the 17.1,

A Gravity Study of the Crustal Structure Beneath the Young Amagmatic Rukwa‐Tanganyika Rift Zone

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The Rukwa‐Tanganyika Rift Zone (RTRZ), experiencing multiphase rifting, forms the nonvolcanic southern part of the Western Branch of the East African Rift. We investigate the crustal structure beneath the RTRZ to understand how strain migrates beneath multiphase rifts.

Seasonal Variability of the DE3 and DE2 Non‐Migrating Tides in Middle Thermospheric Temperature and Composition During October 2018–August 2021 as Revealed by GOLD

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract A subset of non‐migrating tides, including the diurnal eastward propagating tides with zonal wavenumbers 3 and 2, respectively, referred to as DE3 and DE2, are upward propagating waves that have been studied as phenomena that couple the lower atmosphere with the thermosphere. While the climatology of non‐migrating tides in the mesosphere/lower
