Probabilistic Assessment of the Causes of Active Deformation in Greece, Western Anatolia, and the Balkans Using Finite Element Models

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract We constrain the contribution of driving and resistive regional forces to the observed surface deformation in the Nubia‐Eurasia plate boundary region. We use a viscoelastic mechanical model with fault zones representing regional active faults. Deformation is driven by velocities of surrounding plates and by lateral variations in gravitational ...

A multifunctional organelle coordinates phagocytosis and chlorophagy in a marine eukaryote phytoplankton Scyphosphaera apsteinii

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 246, Issue 3, Page 1096-1112, May 2025.
Summary Mixotrophy via phagocytosis can have profound consequences for the survival of marine phytoplankton and the efficiency of carbon transfer in marine systems. Little is known about the cellular mechanisms that underly nutrient acquisition via prey uptake and processing in mixotrophic phytoplankton. We used confocal microscopy, flow cytometry, and

The Story of Miss C.’s Seduction of Young Women. A Methodological Quest into Female Same‐Sex Relations at the Turn of the Twentieth Century

open access: yesGender &History, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 267-281, March 2025.
Abstract This article explores a series of newspaper articles from 1908, describing Miss C. – a Copenhagen woman who, apparently, hosted carnal orgies in which she ‘converted’ young women into sapphism. While most historical sources only hint at female same‐sex relationships or describe women's romantic (platonic) feelings for one another, these ...

Positive species interactions structure rhodolith bed communities at a global scale

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 1, Page 428-444, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Rhodolith beds are diverse and globally distributed habitats. Nonetheless, the role of rhodoliths in structuring the associated species community through a hierarchy of positive interactions is yet to be recognised. In this review, we provide evidence that rhodoliths can function as foundation species of multi‐level facilitation cascades and ...

Sustainable Liquid‐Organic‐Hydrogen‐Carrier‐Based Hydrogen‐Storage Technology Using Crude or Waste Feedstock/Hydrogen

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2024.
Liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC)‐based hydrogen‐storage and transportation technologies can be integrated with crude or waste feedstock and hydrogen. In this review, the methods for obtaining LOHC molecules from petroleum and renewable raw materials , the classification for obtaining crude hydrogen sources from hydrogen production processes, and ...

Effects of urbanization and deforestation on flooding: Case study of Cap‐Haïtien City, Haiti

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 17, Issue 4, December 2024.
Abstract Cap‐Haïtien, the second largest city in Haiti, is highly vulnerable to earthquakes, landslides, and flooding. The rapid pace of urbanization and deforestation has exacerbated the risk of flooding, resulting in disasters in November 2012, 2016, and 2022. This study aims to assess the impact of urbanization and deforestation on river flooding in

Cytocompatibility of electrospun poly‐L‐lactic acid membranes for Bruch's membrane regeneration using human embryonic stem cell‐derived retinal pigment epithelial cells

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 112, Issue 11, Page 1902-1920, November 2024.
Abstract Cell replacement therapy is under development for dry age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). A thin membrane resembling the Bruch's membrane is required to form a cell‐on‐membrane construct with retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. These cells have been differentiated from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in vitro.

Soil type and precipitation level have a greater influence on fungal than bacterial diversity in serpentine and non‐serpentine biological soil crusts

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 862-878, November 2024.
We investigated bacterial and fungal diversity in biocrusts from serpentine and non‐serpentine soil in South Africa. While bacterial diversity showed no significant differences, fungal community structure varied significantly between serpentine (S) and non‐serpentine (NS) biocrusts and between precipitation levels.

Rubisco kinetic adaptations to extreme environments

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 119, Issue 6, Page 2599-2608, September 2024.
SUMMARY Photosynthetic and chemosynthetic extremophiles have evolved adaptations to thrive in challenging environments by finely adjusting their metabolic pathways through evolutionary processes. A prime adaptation target to allow autotrophy in extreme conditions is the enzyme Rubisco, which plays a central role in the conversion of inorganic to ...

Multiple components of environmental change drive populations of breeding waders in seminatural grasslands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Environments are rapidly changing due to climate change, land use, intensive agriculture, and the impact of hunting on predator populations. Here, we analyzed longterm data recorded during 1928–2014 on the size of breeding populations of waders at two ...
