Particle motion: the missing link in underwater acoustic ecology [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Sound waves in water have both a pressure and a particle‐motion component, yet few studies of underwater acoustic ecology have measured the particle‐motion component of sound.

Theoretical Mechanics of Particle Capture: Predictions for Hydropsychid Caddisfly Distributional Ecology [PDF]
The American Naturalist, 1990 Computer simulations based on equations developed earlier were used to analyze theoretically the effects of six parameters on particle capture by hydropsychid caddisfly nets. If assumptions that form the basis of these simulations are valid, the following statements can be made. (1) Nets with fine meshes capture suspended particles at a higher rate per

Interplay between particle size and microbial ecology in the gut microbiome [PDF]
The ISME JournalABSTRACTPhysical particles can serve as critical abiotic factors that structure the ecology of microbial communities. For non-human vertebrate gut microbiomes, fecal particle size (FPS) has been known to be shaped by chewing efficiency and diet. However, little is known about what drives FPS in the human gut.

Particles, environments, and possible ecologies in the Jovian atmosphere [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1976 The eddy diffusion coefficient is estimated as a function of altitude, separately for the Jovian troposphere and mesosphere. Complex organic molecules produced by the Ly alpha photolysis of methane may possibly be the absorbers in the lower mesosphere which account for the low reflectivity of Jupiter in the near ultraviolet.

Nature Communications, 2023 The microplastic body burden of marine animals is often assumed to reflect levels of environmental contamination, yet variations in feeding ecology and regional trait expression could also affect a species’ risk of contaminant uptake.

Viral ecology of organic and inorganic particles in aquatic systems: avenues for further research [PDF]
Aquatic Microbial Ecology, 2009 Viral abundance and processes in the water column and sediments are well studied for some systems; however, we know relatively little about virus-host interactions on particles and how particles influence these interactions. Here we review virus-prokaryote interactions on inorganic and organic particles in the water column.

Physical factors in benthic ecology: effects of changing sand particle size on beach fauna
Oceanographic Literature Review, 1996 This paper reports on the disposal of diamond mine tailings on a Namibian sandy beach. Coarse sand in the tailings greatly increases the grain slze of the affected parts of the beach and thereby provides the opportunity to assess the effects of changing ...

Particle dispersion and clustering in surface ocean turbulence with ageostrophic dynamics [PDF]
The Physics of Fluids, 2023 Upper-ocean turbulent flows at horizontal length scales smaller than the deformation radius depart from geostrophic equilibrium and develop important vertical velocities, which are key to marine ecology and climatic processes. Due to their small size and

Efficient recurrent neural network methods for anomalously diffusing single particle short and noisy trajectories [PDF]
Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2021 Anomalous diffusion occurs at very different scales in nature, from atomic systems to motions in cell organelles, biological tissues or ecology, and also in artificial materials, such as cement.
