High-resolution remapping of the coastal dune fields of south east Queensland, Australia: a morphometric approach

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2019
The sand islands and shore-attached dune fields of south east Queensland form the world’s oldest and largest coastal sand dune system. Here we present updated morphological maps for the dune fields based on topographic expression and geomorphic ...

Geomorphologic landslide inventory by air photo interpretation of the High Agri Valley (Southern Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2021
Landslide inventories provide the knowledge basis for many geomorphological applications and also planning and emergency management. Detailed landslide inventories should also be prepared where pre-existing inventories are available, as knowledge updates.

Morphology, biostratigraphy, and evolution of Pliocene-Pleistocene diatoms Proboscia barboi and Proboscia curvirostris

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2019
Proboscia barboi and Proboscia curvirostris are two important diatom biostratigraphic markers from the high latitudes of the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans, dating back to the Pliocene-Pleistocene time.

Pleistocene glaciation of Fenland, England, and its implications for evolution of the region [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
Detailed investigation of landforms and their underlying deposits on the eastern margin of Fenland, East Anglia, demonstrated that they represent a series of glaciofluvial delta-fan and related sediments.

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Research on the applicability of electron spin resonance dating of the late Quaternary sinter deposits in the rift valley, southern Tibet

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao, 2023
Sinters in the rift valleys of southern Tibet, including silica sinter and travertine deposits, are the products of hydrothermal activity under regional tectonic movement.

Contributions of Quaternary botany to modern ecology and biogeography

open access: yesPlant Ecology & Diversity, 2019
Quaternary (last 2.6 million years) botany involves studying plant megafossils (e.g. tree stumps), macrofossils (e.g. seeds, leaves), and microfossils (e.g. pollen, spores) preserved in peat bogs and lake sediments.

A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to

Data‐driven performance metrics for neural network learning

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView., 2023
Summary Effectiveness of data‐driven neural learning in terms of both local mimima trapping and convergence rate is addressed. Such issues are investigated in a case study involving the training of one‐hidden‐layer feedforward neural networks with the extended Kalman filter, which reduces the search for the optimal network parameters to a state ...

Genetic footprints of Quaternary glacial cycles over the patterns of population diversity and structure in three Nacella (Patellogastropoda: Nacellidae) species across the Magellan province in southern South America

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Quaternary glaciations severely altered landscape/seascape at high latitudes and had major consequences on species geographical ranges, population sizes, genetic differentiation and speciation rates.
