Volumetric Comparison of Overall Brain and Neuropil Size Between Social and Non‐social Spiders: Exploring the Social Brain Hypothesis

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Brain size may be influenced by the cognitive demands of sociality (social brain hypothesis). We used microCT to compare CNS and brain volumes in social versus solitary huntsman and crab spiders. Social huntsman spiders had larger arcuate and mushroom bodies, while social crab spiders had larger visual neuropils.

Design Factors of Water Mist in the Mystery of Landscapes

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings
Water mist enhances the sense of mystery with visual and sensory effects, depending on its atmospheric creation and varying mist heights. Key factors influencing this mystery are the combination of mist with plants, increased air humidity, and sound ...

Microbiome Insights Into Zoonotic Risk at Wildlife–Human Interfaces in a Transitioning Landscape in Thailand

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study shows how ecological transitions, such as reforestation in Southeast Asia, reshape host–microbe–pathogen dynamics at the wildlife–domestic interface. By integrating long‐read microbiome sequencing, ecological gradients, and statistical and network analysis, we identify host species that disproportionately contribute to pathogen diversity and

Cumulative Duration and Habitat Selection Across the Annual‐Cycle Stages: Links to Human Modification in Two Declining Shorebirds

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
First multi‐season analysis linking cumulative duration and habitat selection to human modification in two declining shorebirds. A total of 160 cumulative duration was identified at four periods for two species. Longer cumulative duration correlate with higher human modification in coastal wetlands during northward migration and winter.

IgE‐Binding Bacterial Components Not Yet Documented in the Allergen Databases and Their Allergenic Mechanisms: An EAACI Position Paper

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among bacteria that are associated with the development and/or exacerbation of allergic/atopic diseases, several have been described to produce IgE‐binding components. However, only one bacterial protein, Bac s 1, is currently listed in the official database of the World Health Organization/International Union of Immunological Societies (WHO ...

Fire Extinction Analysis and OH-PLIF Visualization of the Methane–Air Premixed Laminar Flame Interacting with the Downward Water Mist

open access: yesFire
In this study, a McKenna burner made for calibration is used to generate the laminar flame with the equivalence ratio of 0.78~2.0. The effect of the downward water mist spray on the extinction of the methane–air premixed laminar flame is investigated ...

LGM glaciation in the northern Dinaric Mountains, Slovenia: new insights from terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide dating and Parallel Ice Sheet Model simulation

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The Dinaric Mountains are a mountain range stretching NW–SE from the Alps to the Albanides–Hellenides in central Europe. The highest parts were occupied by small ice fields and/or valley glaciers during the Quaternary cold periods, while even today some small glaciers still exist in topoclimatically favourable areas.
