Dams can landlock populations of amphidromous fishes that formerly migrated between rivers and seas. However, the genetic consequences of these life‐cycle changes remain unclear. Rhinogobius is a speciose genus of freshwater gobies widely distributed in Asia, including non‐migratory R. duospilus and facultatively amphidromous R. similis . Using genome‐wide SNPs from Hong Kong, southern China, we compared the genetic diversity...

To review recent advances in research on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and outline priority steps for risk assessment in consumer health protection, the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) organized the ‘International PFAS Conference’ in Berlin in October 2025. Building on the European Food Safety Authority's (EFSA) opinion in 2020, global research activities on PFAS have intensified. The conference...

This paper introduces a comprehensive Tropical Cyclone (TC) dataset based on China’s FengYun (FY) series geostationary satellite observations in the Western North Pacific (WNP), designated as FYSATTY. This innovative dataset integrates high-resolution geostationary meteorological satellite observations with best-track data, providing a unique resource for TC monitoring and analysis in the WNP region. FYSATTY is derived from in...

Understanding how surface climate variables interact directionally remains challenging, particularly in complex terrain environments where nonlinear dynamics, terrain heterogeneity, and seasonal regime shifts limit the applicability of conventional correlation‐based analyses. This study develops a multivariate, cross‐station Transfer Entropy (TE) framework to diagnose directional climate interactions among wind speed, temperat...

Rationale Affective behavioral effects of kappa-opioid receptor (KOR) stimulation have been found to vary between the rostral and caudal nucleus accumbens (NAc) shell, but this has so far only been demonstrated in males. Objectives To examine the effects of KOR activation in subregions of the NAc shell on affective and motivated behavior in females. Methods In one group of Long-Evans rats, females were given access to 20% etha...

Rationale Cannabis use disorder (CUD) affects over 50 million people globally. Emerging evidence shows that some people with CUD may experience altered social cognition (e.g., emotion recognition or differentiation). These impairments can affect their ability to understand others’ emotional states and navigate social interactions, potentially contributing to chronic cannabis use, even when it leads to interpersonal problems. H...

Cities increasingly hope to mobilize nature-based solutions in urban sustainability planning because of their wide-ranging ecosystem services. In this critical moment, where failure due to poor implementation could lead policymakers to turn away from nature-based solutions, we investigate the case of urban forestry and ask: how do strategic-level sustainability goals influences site-level decision-making? We conducted semi-str...

The thumb plays a crucial role in hand function, yet its proprioceptive abilities remain poorly understood. Here we quantified dynamic thumb localization ability, as well as how this ability adapts to a perturbation, in unimpaired participants. For this, we developed a novel task in which a robot moved the thumb in a circle and participants pressed a button when they felt their thumb aligning with a target point on a screen, r...

Elevated heat and low phytoplankton abundance are physiologically and ecologically challenging marine organisms of the northeast Pacific, including the mussel Mytilus californianus . During low tide, mussels are exposed to warm air and undergo anaerobic metabolism. Tidal variation coincides with daily fluctuations in food availability requiring flexible response systems (e.g., changes in digestive enzyme activity) to maintain...

Based on linear wave theory and potential flow theory, the wave scattering performance of a rectangular floating porous box with an impermeable bottom is investigated analytically. The mathematical formulation of the physical problem is well established and solved, and its analytical solutions are appropriately obtained using the matched eigenfunction expansion method. The convergency and accuracy of the analytical solutions a...

Purpose Inhalable liquid formulation of endolysins represents a promising alternative to conventional antibiotics. Dry powder formulations offer improved stability for endolysin pulmonary delivery. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of an inhalable dry powder or liquid formulation of endolysin Cpl-1 alone and to compare it with liquid combinations of Cpl-1 with either gentamicin or endolysin Pal in a murine model of S....
