Carbonates from Santos Basin revealed U–Pb ages correlated with basalt ages (A), suggesting that they were formed during magmatic events. These events placed hot CO2 in the reservoir, which, when mixed with carbonate‐rich cold water (B), led to thermal convection, enabling the formation of the U contained in the carbonates.

High‐Resolution Diffusion‐Weighted Imaging With Self‐Gated Self‐Supervised Unrolled Reconstruction
ABSTRACT Purpose High‐resolution diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) is clinically demanding. The purpose of this work is to develop an efficient self‐supervised algorithm unrolling technique for submillimeter‐resolution DWI. Methods We developed submillimeter DWI acquisition utilizing multi‐band multi‐shot EPI with diffusion shift encoding.

The feasibility of using RNA interference to control the globally important quarantine pest, the spongy moth. Targeting genes related to JHs play an important role in the growth and development of insects. First, the open reading frames (ORFs) of Ldjhamt and Ldjheh were identified and characterized, and the target genes were cloned and double‐stranded ...
