Role of the Setae in an Ectoparasitic Seal Louse in Reducing Surface Drag: Numerical Modeling Approach

Advanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
The seal louse Echinophthirius horridus has uniquely shaped setae that may reduce drag during its host's dives. Using numerical simulations, this study demonstrates that their natural inclination promotes vortex formation, minimizing friction and energy loss. These findings provide insights into biological surface adaptations and may inspire the design

Global spatiotemporal optimization of photovoltaic and wind power to achieve the Paris Agreement targets

Nature Communications
Limiting global warming below 1.5 or 2 °C calls for achieving energy systems with net-zero carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions likely by 2040 or 2070, but the pledged actions under current policies cannot meet these targets.

THE ECOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF FINE PARTICLE SELECTION BY THE STRIPED MULLET MUGIL CEPHALUS1 [PDF]

Limnology and Oceanography, 1968
By tracer experiments using 32P and a comparison of sediment and stomach content particle sizes, Mugil cephalus Linnaeus is shown to prefer very fine particles wherever sediments are involved in feeding. It is suggested that these small inorganic and plant detrital sediment particles are much richer both in absorbed organic material and in adsorbed ...

Homeostasis of Gut Microbiota Protects against Susceptibility to Fungal Pneumonia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fungal pneumonia induces inflammation, shown by heightened IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α levels and a growth in Staphylococcus in the alveolar flora. The gut microbiota, acting through the gut‐lung axis via blood, impacts fungal pneumonia susceptibility by altering lung metabolism and inflammatory responses.

Hydrogen‐Producing Catalysts Based on Ferredoxin Scaffolds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Selected plant‐type ferredoxins that lack their natural [2Fe‐2S] clusters functionally bind a hydrogenase active site cofactor and act as hydrogenases themselves. In combination with photosystem I, the light‐dependent H₂ evolution almost matches the H₂ production rates of the natural system.

SPUX: Scalable Particle Markov Chain Monte Carlo for Uncertainty Quantification in Stochastic Ecological Models

, 2018
Calibration of individual based models (IBMs), successful in modeling complex ecological dynamical systems, is often performed only ad-hoc. Bayesian inference can be used for both parameter estimation and uncertainty quantification, but its successful application to realistic scenarios has been hindered by the complex stochastic nature of IBMs ...

Inhibition of RNase to Attenuate Fungal‐Manipulated Rhizosphere Microbiome and Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fusarium graminearum uses its virulence effector Fg12, a fungal RNase, to manipulate the host rhizosphere microbiome and promote infection. Guanosine monophosphate (GMP) blocks Fg12's RNase activity. This reveals a key pathogen‐microbiota interaction mechanism and proposes GMP as a targeted strategy to disarm this core fungal effector, offering a ...
