Clustering of particles in turbulence due to phoresis [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2016
We demonstrate that diffusiophoretic, thermophoretic, and chemotactic phenomena in turbulence lead to clustering of particles on multifractal sets that can be described using one single framework, valid when the particle size is much smaller than the smallest length scale of turbulence l_{0}.

Avian Afterlives: Integrative Taxonomy of Hippoboscid Flies (Diptera) From Citizen‐Reported Bird Carcasses Reveals a New Species and Host–Parasite Diversity in Singapore

open access: yesJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Biodiversity science depends on rigorous characterization of species diversity and ecological roles, yet the ecology of many invertebrate species remains virtually unknown. One pragmatic way to change this is to make use of deceased animals and their companions, such as by salvaging and examining carcasses reported by citizen scientists.

False scorpions (Arachnida, Pseudoscorpiones) from Lower Cretaceous Spanish amber

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 10, Issue 6, November/December 2024.
Abstract Pseudoscorpions, one of the earliest terrestrial lineages dating back to the Middle Devonian period (c. 385 Ma), have a limited fossil record mainly as inclusions in amber. The available fossils are mostly from the Cenozoic era, making it challenging to comprehensively understand their evolutionary history and diversification over time.
