White Whale Optimization Algorithm
Swarm intelligence optimization algorithms have been widely studied in continuous optimization, combinatorial optimization, and engineering applications due to their lack of gradient information requirements, simple structure, and wide applicability. However, most existing metaheuristic algorithms are highly similar in terms of information acquisition ...

Abstract We estimate the cosmic dust flux to Earth through the study of rare micrometeorites that preserve part of their precursor features during atmospheric entry heating, namely unmelted and scoriaceous subtypes. Combining high‐precision mass balance measurements, X‐ray computed microtomography and scanning electron microscopy, we studied mass, size

ABSTRACT Quantifying abundances of unicellular eukaryotes (protists) remains a central challenge in microbial ecology, as methodological differences can strongly influence abundance estimates and ecological interpretation. Although molecular tools have thus far greatly improved our understanding of protists, high rRNA gene copy numbers limit ...

Primate‐specific lncRNA LINC01021 promotes aging by enhancing cellular senescence and accelerating aspects of organismal decline. Mechanistically, LINC01021 induces DAZAP1‐mediated destabilization of RBMX, activating the P53 pathway and establishing a primate‐specific regulatory axis in aging.

The International Whaling Commission and the Elusive Great White Whale of Preservationism
This article explores the attempts to create an global legal whaling regime and examines its underlying competing environmental norms of exploitation, conservation and preservation. It outlines a history of whaling exploitation over the centuries and tracks the development of early whaling regimes as well as examining the development of the ...

Baleen Whale Occurrence in the Waters Off Virginia and North Carolina, U.S.A. From 2001 to 2019
ABSTRACT Eighteen years of visual survey and strandings data were used to describe baleen whale occurrence along the continental shelf of Virginia and North Carolina, U.S.A. This region experiences heavy anthropogenic use, which poses risks for mortality and injury to baleen whales. Between 2001 and 2019, six species of baleen whales were recorded, and

ABSTRACT Automated detection and classification of marine mammal vocalizations is critical for conservation and management efforts but is hindered by limited annotated datasets and the acoustic complexity of real‐world marine environments. Data augmentation has proven to be an effective strategy to address this limitation by increasing dataset ...

ABSTRACT Southern right whales (Eubalaena australis) are listed as Endangered in Australia due to past commercial exploitation. Currently, they are experiencing contemporary declines in population growth rates. Knowledge of critical periods and habitats in whale occupancy and reproduction is crucial for conservation efforts.
