Temporal disturbance of a model stream ecosystem by high microbial diversity from treated wastewater
MicrobiologyOpen, 2023 Microbial communities in freshwater streams play an essential role in ecosystem functioning via biogeochemical cycling. Yet, the impacts of treated wastewater influx into stream ecosystems on microbial strain diversity remain mostly unexplored.

Resilience: Safety in the Aftermath of Traumatic Stressor Experiences
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2020 The relationship between adverse experiences and the emergence of pathology has often focused on characteristics of the stressor or of the individual (stressor appraisals, coping strategies).

Association between changes in heart rate variability during the anticipation of a stressful situation and the stress-induced cortisol response [PDF]
, 2018 Vagal activity - reflecting the activation of stress regulatory mechanisms and prefrontal cortex activation - is thought to play an inhibitory role in the regulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis.

Effects of salinity changes on aquatic organisms in a multiple stressor context
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2018 Under global change, the ion concentration of aquatic ecosystems is changing worldwide. Many freshwater ecosystems are being salinized by anthropogenic salt inputs, whereas many naturally saline ones are being diluted by agricultural drainages.

Reliability improvement of electronic circuits based on physical failure mechanisms in components [PDF]
, 1991 Traditionally the position of reliability analysis in the design and production process of electronic circuits is a position of reliability verification. A completed design is checked on reliability aspects and either rejected or accepted for production.
