Individual Variation in Parturition Timing within and among Years for a Bat Maternity Colony
Background: In monoestrous species, the timing of reproduction can have important impacts on offspring survival. For heterotherms in temperate areas, parturition timing is constrained by cold weather survival strategies, such as hibernation and torpor ...

Telomere-to-telomere human DNA replication timing profiles
The spatiotemporal organization of DNA replication produces a highly robust and reproducible replication timing profile. Sequencing-based methods for assaying replication timing genome-wide have become commonplace, but regions of high repeat content in ...

PROBING FOAMY SPACE–TIME WITH VARIATIONAL METHODS [PDF]
A one-loop correction of the quasilocal energy in the Schwarzschild background, with flat space as a reference metric, is performed by means of a variational procedure in the Hamiltonian framework. We examine the graviton sector in momentum space, in the lowest possible state.

Systematic and Stochastic Variations in Pulsar Dispersion Measures [PDF]
We analyze deterministic and random temporal variations in dispersion measure (DM) from the full three-dimensional velocities of pulsars with respect to the solar system, combined with electron-density variations on a wide range of length scales ...

Quantification of left ventricular longitudinal strain, strain rate, velocity and displacement in healthy horses by 2-dimensional speckle tracking [PDF]
Background: The quantification of equine left ventricular (LV) function is generally limited to short-axis M-mode measurements. However, LV deformation is 3-dimensional (3D) and consists of longitudinal shortening, circumferential shortening, and radial ...

TOI-199 b: A Well-characterized 100 day Transiting Warm Giant Planet with TTVs Seen from Antarctica
We present the spectroscopic confirmation and precise mass measurement of the warm giant planet TOI-199 b. This planet was first identified in TESS photometry and confirmed using ground-based photometry from ASTEP in Antarctica including a full 6.5 hr ...

Beyond Biomass: Valuing Genetic Diversity in Natural Resource Management [PDF]
Strategies for increasing production of goods from working and natural systems have raised concerns that the diversity of species on which these services depend may be eroding. This loss of natural capital threatens to homogenize global food supplies and

A time variational method to couple heterogeneous time integrators
This paper is devoted to a brief presentation of recent research results upon structural mechanics code coupling in transient analysis. The domain is supposed to be decomposed into a series of sub domains which are treated independently with their own time integration scheme and or their own code. The paper gives a general method which allows to couple
