The principle of the 3Rs between aspiration and reality

The Principle of the 3Rs is widely recognised as the methodological and ethical backbone of contemporary animal research. Different authors also stress the reciprocal links among the 3Rs, and how these often complement and reinforce each ot...

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...

Methane and carbon dioxide fluxes over a lake: comparison between eddy covariance, floating chambers and boundary layer method

Freshwaters bring a notable contribution to the global carbon budget by emitting both carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. Global estimates of freshwater emissions traditionally use a wind-speed-based gas transfer ve...

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...

Exploring the Intestinal Microbiota and Metabolome Profiles Associated With Feed Efficiency in Pacific Abalone (Haliotis discus hannai)
