Bayesian deep learning for error estimation in the analysis of anomalous diffusion
Modern single-particle-tracking techniques produce extensive time-series of diffusive motion in a wide variety of systems, from single-molecule motion in living-cells to movement ecology.

Long-term change in benthopelagic fish abundance in the abyssal northeast Pacific Ocean [PDF]
Food web structure, particularly the relative importance of bottom-up and top-down control of animal abundances, is poorly known for the Earth's largest habitats: the abyssal plains.

A Lagrangian model of copepod dynamics: Clustering by escape jumps in turbulence [PDF]
Planktonic copepods are small crustaceans that have the ability to swim by quick powerful jumps. Such an aptness is used to escape from high shear regions, which may be caused either by flow per- turbations, produced by a large predator (i.e., fish ...

Borneo coral reefs subject to high sediment loads show evidence of resilience to various environmental stressors [PDF]
For reefs in South East Asia the synergistic effects of rapid land development, insufficient environmental policies and a lack of enforcement has led to poor water quality and compromised coral health from increased sediment and pollution.

Organosolv lignin particles as an ecological reagents in the Kupfershiefer copper ore flotation
Mineral separation relies heavily on the process of flotation. This study explored the feasibility of using organosolv lignin nanoparticles and microparticles (OLP) as a greener alternative to xanthates in the flotation process for mineral separation. Xanthates are widely used but pose environmental and health risks. The efficiency of OLP as collectors

Physical Connectivity Between the NE Atlantic Seamounts [PDF]
Within the Portuguese Exclusive Economic Zone, the Great Meteor and Madeira-Tore complexes are highly productive areas, which are likely to be classified as marine protected areas (MPAs) due to their ecological vulnerability.

Background Stone wool is commonly used as a plant substrate in soilless cultivation and discarded after one growing season. Stone wool waste is difficult to recycle, and thus it is typically landfilled.

Isotopic constraints on the atmospheric sources and formation of nitrogenous species in clouds influenced by biomass burning [PDF]
Predicting tropospheric cloud formation and subsequent nutrient deposition relies on understanding the sources and processes affecting aerosol constituents of the atmosphere that are preserved in cloud water.
