Abstract Premise Approximately 14% of all fern species have physiologically active chlorophyllous spores that are much more short‐lived than the more common and dormant achlorophyllous spores. Most chlorophyllous‐spored species (70%) are epiphytes and account for almost 37% of all epiphytic ferns.

The effect of planetary migration on the corotation resonance [PDF]
The migration of a planet through a gaseous disc causes the locations of their resonant interactions to drift and can alter the torques exerted between the planet and the disc. We analyse the time-dependent dynamics of a non-coorbital corotation resonance under these circumstances.

Ammonia Synthesis at Room Temperature and Atmospheric Pressure from N2: A Boron‐Radical Approach
Boron‐centered radicals, generated by reduction of R2BCl derivatives, react with N2 all the way to borylamine formation. DFT calculations rationalize the reduction/functionalization process, involving N−N bond splitting. Hydrolysis of the mixture yields NH4+. Radical addition to N2 provides a new strategy for N2 fixation.

Good Combination of the Rossiter-McLaughlin Measurements and Direct Imaging Observations
We introduce a novel methodology to distinguish planetary migration mechanisms by a combination of Rossiter-McLaughlin measurements and direct imaging observations.

Suitability of Natura 2000 sites for threatened freshwater species under projected climate change
Abstract As part of the world's largest coordinated network of protected areas, Natura 2000, European Union member states designate special areas of conservation (SACs) to maintain or achieve favourable conservation status for imperilled aquatic species listed under Annex II of the Habitats Directive.

The effects of a magnetic field on planetary migration in laminar and turbulent discs [PDF]
We investigate the migration of low-mass planets ($5 M_{\oplus}$ and $20 M_{\oplus}$) in accretion discs threaded with a magnetic field using 2D MHD code in polar coordinates.

Planetary migration in precessing discs for S-type wide binaries [PDF]
ABSTRACT The discovery of numerous circumprimary planets in the last few years has brought to the fore the question of planet formation in binary systems. The significant dynamical influence, during the protoplanetary disc phase, of a binary companion on a giant planet has previously been highlighted for wide binary stars. In particular,

Migrating microbes and planetary protection
Since the dawn of the space age, humans have wrestled with concerns about planetary cross-contamination. Spacecraft launched from Earth can transport hitchhiker microbes to new worlds on both robotic and crewed vehicles. As plans proceed for future life detection and human exploration missions, planetary protection considerations are again uppermost on

Enhanced Size Uniformity for Near-resonant Planets
Super-Earths within the same close-in, compact planetary system tend to exhibit a striking degree of uniformity in their radius, mass, and orbital spacing, and this “peas-in-a-pod” phenomenon itself serves to provide one of the strongest constrains on ...

Planetary migration in resonance : the question of the eccentricities [PDF]
The formation of resonant planets pairs in exoplanetary systems involves planetary migration inside the protoplanetary disc: an inwards migrating outer planet captures in Mean Motion Resonance an inner planet. During the migration of the resonant pair of planets, the eccentricities are expected to rise excessively, if no damping mechanism is applied on
