Multimodal Locomotion in Insect‐Inspired Microrobots: A Review of Strategies for Aerial, Surface, Aquatic, and Interfacial Motion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Nocturnal fish chorusing activity in the central Red Sea mesophotic reef zone and adjacent shallow sites

Frontiers in Remote Sensing
Through sharing characteristics of chorus activity, especially in regions that are particularly data deficient, we can aim at a broader, global understanding of fish chorusing and consequently important spatiotemporal changes in habitat use by schooling ...

Spectral Wave-Driven Bedload Transport Across a Coral Reef Flat/Lagoon Complex

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Coral reefs are an important source of sediment for reef-lined coasts and help to maintain beaches by providing protection though dissipation of wave energy. Understanding the mechanisms that deliver sediment to the coast from coral reefs and quantifying

Nearshore to Offshore Trends in Plankton Assemblage and Stable Isotopes in Reefs of the West Philippine Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Coral reefs are typified by their benthic components, and reef diversity and productivity are traditionally ascribed to the symbiotic association between corals and zooxanthellae, and other macroalgal forms.

Hainan Longevity Model, Senile Degeneration, Cognitive Disability and Healthy Longevity

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Investigating centenarians who exemplify healthy longevity can aid in formulating preventive strategies aimed at achieving health and extending lifespan in the context of population aging. Hainan longevity model (HLM) plays key roles in promoting healthy longevity and provides scientific evidence for achieving healthy longevity in the older population.

Drivers of the Abundance of Tridacna spp. Giant Clams in the Red Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Giant clams (Subfamily Tridacninae), are important members of Indo-Pacific coral reefs, playing multiple roles in the framework of these communities. Although they are prominent species in Red Sea reefs, data on their distribution and densities in the ...

The morphology of the oval window in Paranthropus robustus compared to humans and other modern primates

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

Oil and gas potential of the Korotaikha Depression in the Timan-Pechora basin

Georesursy, 2017
Prospects for the growth of hydrocarbon (HC) reserves in the Timan-Pechora basin are associated with poorly explored areas, which include the Korotaikha Depression, which is a very difficult region for oil and gas exploration.

Description of the skull, braincase, and dentition of Moschognathus whaitsi (Dinocephalia, Tapinocephalia), and its palaeobiological and behavioral implications

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A subadult Moschognathus whaitsi from the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa, was scanned using synchrotron radiation X‐ray computed tomography (SRXCT). Its subadult state allowed the cranial bones and teeth to be identified and individually reconstructed in 3D.
