A comparative study on chaoticity of equatorial/low latitude ionosphere over Indian subcontinent during geomagnetically quiet and disturbed periods

In the present study, the latitudinal aspect of chaotic behaviour of ionosphere during quiet and storm periods are analyzed and compared by using GPS TEC time series measured at equatorial trough, crest and outside crest stations over India...

Topology and seasonal evolution of the network of extreme precipitation over the Indian subcontinent and Sri Lanka

This paper employs a complex network approach to determine the topology and evolution of the network of extreme precipitation that governs the organization of extreme rainfall before, during, and after the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) season...

Fluctuation-Response Relation and modeling in systems with fast and slow dynamics

We show how a general formulation of the Fluctuation-Response Relation is able to describe in detail the connection between response properties to external perturbations and spontaneous fluctuations in systems with fast and slow variables. ...

Impact of Urbanization on Cloud Characteristics over Sofia, Bulgaria

Urban artificial surfaces and structures induce modifications in land–atmosphere interactions, affecting the exchange of energy, momentum, and substances. These modifications stimulate urban climate formation by altering the values and dyna...

Structural Properties of Syngenetic Ice-Rich Permafrost, as Revealed by Archaeological Investigation of the Yana Site Complex (Arctic East Siberia, Russia): Implications for Quaternary Science

Ice-rich syncryogenic (termed “Ice Complex”) deposits are common in northern East Siberia and constitute the most important feature of the Quaternary geology of the region. The Ice Complex formed throughout the Late Pleistocene and not only...

Sources of Contaminants of Emerging Concern in Groundwater of Barcelona Urban Area

Groundwater is a vital resource for the development of urban areas, where the problem focuses on the quantity and on the quality of this freshwater resource. Barcelona is a good example as because currently groundwater is used for irrigatio...

Deglacial release of petrogenic and permafrost carbon from the Canadian Arctic impacting the carbon cycle

Abstract The changes in atmospheric pCO2 provide evidence for the release of large amounts of ancient carbon during the last deglaciation. However, the sources and mechanisms that contributed to this process remain unresolved. Here, we pres...

Fungal Communities Associated with Siricid Wood Wasps: Focus on <i>Sirex juvencus</i>, <i>Urocerus gigas</i>, and <i>Tremex fuscicornis</i>

We investigated the diversity and occurrence of wood wasps in Lithuania and determined communities of associated fungi. Trapping of wood wasps resulted in three different species, including Sirex juvencus, Urocerus gigas, and Tremex fuscico...

Evaluation of Occupational Accidents in the Forestry Sector Using Standardized Accident Rates: The Case of Türkiye

This study examines work accidents that occurred in the “Forestry and Industrial and Fuel Wood Production” sector in Türkiye between 2007 and 2024. In the research, the number of insured persons, the number of workplaces, and work accident ...

Impacts of land use and cover changes on ecosystem service values from 1992 to 2052 in Gena District, Southwest Ethiopia

Land use and cover changes alter the functions and structures of ecosystem, resulting in variations in Ecosystem Service Values (ESVs). Thus, we examined the impacts of land use/land cover (LULC) changes on ESVs from 1992 to 2052 using geos...

Expert projections on the development and application of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage technologies

Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is a crucial element in most modelling studies on emission pathways of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to limit global warming. BECCS can substitute fossil fuels in energy prod...

MRI Application in Quantification of Epiphyseal Development in the Wrist and Bone Age Estimation of Han Male Adolescents in East China

ObjectiveTo investigate the value of wrist MRI in bone age estimation for male adolescents in Shanghai, Zhejiang and Jiangsu.MethodsA total of 124 Han male adolescents aged 6.0 to 18.0 years from Shanghai, Zhejiang and Jiangsu were selected...

The features analysis of hemoglobin expression on visual information transmission pathway in early stage of Alzheimer’s disease

Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized primarily by cognitive impairment. The motivation of this paper is to explore the impact of the visual information transmission pathway (V–H pathway) on AD, and...

From plants to patterns: Constructing a comprehensive online strontium isoscape for Belgium (IsoBel) using high density grid mapping

Understanding the spatial distribution of strontium isotopes in plants or other archives within a region is crucial for various fields, including archaeology, environmental studies, food sciences and forensic science. This study aims to cre...

Analysis of the ex-vivo transformation of semen, saliva and urine as they dry out using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy and chemometric approach

Abstract The ex-vivo biochemical changes of different body fluids also referred as aging of fluids are potential marker for the estimation of Time since deposition. Infrared spectroscopy has great potential to reveal the biochemical changes...

ETNK1 mutations induce a mutator phenotype that can be reverted with phosphoethanolamine

ETNK1 mutations are recurrent in leukemia but how they contribute to oncogenesis is still unclear. Here, the authors show that ETNK1 mutations increase mitochondrial activity, ROS and H2AX levels and that these effects can be rescued upon p...

The Challenge of Timely, Responsive and Rigorous Ethics Review of Disaster Research: Views of Research Ethics Committee Members.

Research conducted following natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods or hurricanes is crucial for improving relief interventions. Such research, however, poses ethical, methodological and logistical challenges for researchers. Oversig...

Comparative study of strongly and weakly coupled data assimilation with a global land–atmosphere coupled model

This study explores coupled land–atmosphere data assimilation (DA) for improving weather and hydrological forecasts by assimilating soil moisture (SM) data. This study integrates a land DA component into a global atmospheric DA system of th...

Microplastic as a vector of heavy metals and chemicals in aquatic ecosystems

Microplastics (MPs) have become a symbol of modern life and their fate in the environment is an issue of great concern. MPs have attracted attention for their widespread distribution, especially in the aquatic ecosystems. MPs can act as a v...
