Spatio-temporal distribution of Diaphanosoma brachyurum (Cladocera: Sididae) in freshwater reservoir ecosystems: importance of maximum water depth and macrophyte beds for avoidance of fish predation

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2014
In empirical studies, Cladocera is commonly utilized as a primary food source for predators such as fish, thus, predator avoidance are important strategies to sustain their population in freshwater ecosystems. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that

Interactive effects of nutrients and salinity on zooplankton in subtropical plateau lakes with contrasting water depth

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Both eutrophication and salinization are growing global environmental problems in freshwater ecosystems, threatening the water quality and various aquatic organisms.

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

Habitat Features Influencing Waterbird Use of Managed Wetlands Enrolled in a Public‐Private Partnership for Land Conservation: The California Waterfowl Habitat Program

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Draining, water diversion, and development have greatly reduced the availability of freshwater wetland habitat around the world, and many remaining wetlands are on private lands. Public–private partnership programs can be an important means for promoting

Water depth and feed pellet type effects on growth and feed utilization in the rearing of green turtle (Chelonia mydas Linnaeus, 1758)

open access: yesAquatic Living Resources, 2017
The rearing of green turtles (Chelonia mydas Linnaeus, 1758) before their release to natural habitats has been practiced in several countries, whereas little information is available for inferring optimal husbandry protocols.

A Simple Method for Extracting Water Depth From Multispectral Satellite Imagery in Regions of Variable Bottom Type

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2019
Satellite imagery offers an efficient and cost‐effective means of estimating water depth in shallow environments. However, traditional empirical algorithms for calculating water depth often are unable to account for varying bottom reflectance, and ...

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...

Bottom Dissipation in Finite-Depth Water Waves

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1978, 1978
The dissipation of wave energy by various bottom mechanisms plays an important role in the spectral transformation of waves as they propagate from deep to shallow water. Three bottom dissipation mechanisms are discussed. The bottom friction mechanism is investigated in detail and a method for calculating the friction coefficient is proposed. The method

LINC01116, a hypoxia‐lncRNA marker of pathological lymphangiogenesis and poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The LINC01116 long noncoding RNA is induced by hypoxia and associated with poor prognosis and high recurrence rates in two cohorts of lung adenocarcinoma patients. Here, we demonstrate that besides its expression in cancer cells, LINC01116 is markedly expressed in lymphatic endothelial cells of the tumor stroma in which it participates in hypoxia ...

Coupled Effects of Water Depth, Vegetation, and Soil Properties on Soil Organic Carbon Components in the Huixian Wetland of the Li River Basin

open access: yesLand
Wetland ecosystems are essential to the global carbon cycle, and they contribute significantly to carbon storage and regulation. While existing studies have explored the individual effects of the water depth, vegetation, and soil properties on the soil ...
