Abstract California, located along the transform boundary between the Pacific and North American plates, hosts a complex fault system, a long history of damaging earthquakes, and frequent small earthquakes. While earthquakes arise from the buildup and release of elastic stress, detailed knowledge of principal stress orientations, absolute stress ...

ABSTRACT Climate change significantly threatens biodiversity, particularly in freshwater ecosystems, which host many endemic and threatened species. Among them, aeglids stand out as strictly endemic, ecologically important and highly threatened crustaceans, making them a relevant model for investigating the impacts of climate change on aquatic ...

Effects of Alternate Wetting and Drying on Water Savings and Rice Yields in The Philippines
ABSTRACT Water scarcity is a significant challenge for farmers in major rice‐producing countries, as traditional rice production typically requires rice fields to remain flooded throughout the growing season. Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD) is a water management technique developed for rice cultivation where rice fields are allowed to dry ...

Abstract The post‐Miocene climatic history of arid environments in South America has been identified as a key driver of dispersal and diversification, particularly among plant groups such as Cactaceae. Despite their iconic status, many cactus genera remain poorly understood, and comprehensive taxonomic and systematic revisions using morphological and ...

Transgene effects vary among maize populations with implications for improving quantitative traits
Abstract The goal of transgenesis in plant breeding is to make step‐change improvements in traits of interest. However, improving quantitative traits, such as yield in maize (Zea mays L.), with transgenes has been difficult. Traditionally, transgene testing is done on a few isogenic lines, and results are extrapolated to entire breeding populations ...

Expedition 5300: limits of human adaptations in the highest city in the world
Abstract figure legend La Rinconada is the highest city in the world, spread over the mountain above the Peruvian Altiplano from 5000 to 5300 m. At this altitude, the inspiratory oxygen partial pressure is only 50% of the sea level value. The most striking physiological effect of chronic severe hypoxia in dwellers from La Rinconada is the large ...
