The Alarming Trend of Water Weaponization During the Russian War in Ukraine
Abstract Water plays a critical role in sustaining civilian populations during armed conflict, yet its deliberate disruption is increasingly reported in contemporary warfare. Despite growing attention to the topic of water weaponization, the concept remains inconsistently defined throughout humanitarian, environmental, and legal literature.

Surveying Biodiverse Coral Reef Ecosystems Across the Tree of Life With Environmental DNA
ABSTRACT A central challenge in evaluating biodiversity using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is that each primer set has biases resulting in selective amplification of taxonomic diversity. Here we test 11 primer pairs to assess Central Pacific coral reef diversity in the five kingdoms of marine eukaryotes: Chromista, Fungi, Metazoa, Plantae and

Genomic and Phenotypic Classification of Staphylococcus Species Isolated From Delhi Air
Multiple Staphylococcus spp. were isolated from the outdoor polluted air of the Indian Capital, New Delhi. The bacterial samples were collected from 6 different locations, and the whole genome of four Staphylococcus isolates was sequenced in their entirety. This study presents the comparative genomic analysis of these four isolates.
