American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The soil depth of underground storage organs (USOs) of geophytes involves cost–benefit trade‐offs and may relate to USO age, size, and disturbances such as fire and herbivory. Yet determinants of USO depth are poorly studied. We posit that belowground mammalian predation of USOs is a selective force for the positive relationship ...

Pore Space Quantification of Three Sandstones Binary Micro CT Images [PDF]
Muhandisī-i manābi̒-i ma̒danīThe pore geometry and topology properties of rocks are significant for a better understanding of the complex hydrologic and elastic properties. If the complexity of porous media is considered, reliable results can achieve. In three-dimensional imaging of

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Enhancing oil recovery (EOR) in mature reservoirs is hindered by high interfacial tension (IFT) and oil‐wet rock formations, especially under harsh, high‐salinity conditions. This study aims to overcome these limitations by synthesizing a novel carbon nanotube nanocomposite covalently grafted with polyethylenimine and non‐covalently ...

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fines migration induced by low salinity water flooding severely impairs reservoir permeability and injectivity presenting a critical challenge in enhanced oil recovery. This study aims to synthesize and evaluate a surface‐modified polymer‐silica nanocomposite to mitigate clay mobilization and preserve the hydrodynamic capacity of porous media.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Arhinolemur scalabrinii† Ameghino, 1898 was originally described as a strepsirrhine primate (Mammalia) but has been recognized as an anostomid fish since 2012. It remains the only extinct anostomid species known from complete cranial material.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Studies investigating paleopathologies in sauropods remain scarce despite their relative abundance in the fossil record. In this study we report new occurrence of paleopathological features, corresponding to a neoplasm found in a middle caudal vertebra (MCT.R.2120) of an advanced titanosaur from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Bauru Basin ...

The Central Western Caucasus at the Jurassic–Cretaceous Transition: A Synthesis with a Case Study
Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringThe Caucasian Sea was among the vast tropical water masses that existed on Earth in the Mesozoic. The knowledge of Kimmeridgian–Hauterivian deposits from the central Western Caucasus can facilitate the understanding of the Caucasian paleogeography at the

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Nowadays, Lepidosauria is a diverse group represented by squamates and the rhynchocephalian tuatara. However, their origins date back to the end of the Permian Period, when the stem lineages Lepidosauromorpha and Archosauromorpha diverged. Within the lepidosauromorph stem lineage, a few species have been described with unstable phylogenetic ...
