The master molecule that built biology: How water shaped the chemistry of life
Abstract The deep entanglement of biomolecular structure and function with aqueous systems supports the view that water actively sculpted both molecules and processes during the origins of life and continues to constrain evolution today. Nature's rules of biochemistry and biophysics have survived for nearly 4 billion years.

Ultra–short-period WD Binaries Are Not Undergoing Strong Tidal Heating
Double white dwarf (WD) binaries are increasingly being discovered at short orbital periods where strong tidal effects and significant tidal heating signatures may occur.

ABSTRACT This paper presents an overview of the CONFLOWS project, a collaborative effort between DNV, Marine Power Systems (MPS) and Durham University. The project investigates the effects of wake steering from aerodynamic, structural and economic modelling perspectives, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of its impact on performance and ...

The Formation of Ultra-short-period Planets under the Influence of the Nearby Planetary Companions
Ultra-short-period (USP) planets, defined as those with orbital periods shorter than 1 day, provide valuable insights into planetary evolution under strong stellar tidal interactions.

Star-planet interactions must be taken into account in stellar models to understand the dynamical evolution of close-in planets. The dependence of the tidal interactions on the structural and rotational evolution of the star is of peculiar importance and

Abstract Seacliff erosion in steep terrain poses major risks to transportation and critical infrastructure. In Big Sur, California, USA, seacliff erosion threatens the sustainability of the central coast stretch of California State Route 1, a transportation corridor that is critical to the region's economy.

Small flow rate can supply inwardly migrating shortest-period planets
The number of exoplanets found with periods as short as one day and less was surprising given how fast these planets had been expected to migrate into the star due to the tides raised on the star by planets at such close distances.
