Tracking the occurrence and fate of human bocavirus 2 in municipal wastewater from a small cityNARA Subscribed
Background Human Bocavirus 2 (HBoV2) is an emerging enteric virus frequently detected in wastewater, yet its environmental fate, persistence, and treatment remain poorly understood. Improved characterization of HBoV2 is important for advancing wastewater-based epidemiology and understanding viral transmission dynamics. Methods and Results A year-long wastewater surveillance study was conducted from December 2023 to December 20...
Features of possible regional ionospheric memory manifested themselves at low-latitudes under solar eclipse conditions.
On recently deglaciated terrain, soil instability can be a physical barrier limiting seedling establishment. Here we used a space-for-time approach to study the role of biological soil crust (biocrust) as soil surface stabilizer and facilitator of ecological succession along a glacier forefield chronosequence at the retreating Conejeras glacier in the Tropical Andes. We used the point-intercept method to estimate surface cover...
As reef-building coral cover has declined worldwide, coral restoration has become a widespread response towards repopulating degraded reefs. In-situ nurseries have provided refugia for the regrowth of several coral species, yet long-term success following outplanting remains highly variable, particularly when corals are introduced into novel or marginal environments. Additionally, while growth and survivorship are commonly use...
Ant foraging and recruitment often relies heavily on pheromone trails, and ants modulate pheromone trail deposition strategically. Ants are also known to modulate trail following depending on their own private information, such as the known location of the nest and their knowledge of food sources in the environment. Here we ask how a series of important context variables—distance from the nest, direction of travel, and prior f...
Revealing the hidden burden: wastewater-based epidemiology for underreported and emerging infectious diseases in communitiesNARA Subscribed
Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) has become a transformative tool for infectious disease surveillance, providing population-level insights that complement and extend traditional case-based reporting. This review examines the expanding role of WBE in identifying and characterizing underreported, novel, and emerging human pathogens. Evidence reveals that wastewater analysis consistently detects enteric, respiratory, and negle...
Invasive fungal infections (IFI) are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in hematologic malignancy patients and hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients. Mold cholecystitis has rarely been described. We present a case of disseminated Lomentospora prolificans , that had recrudescence of symptoms with acute cholecystitis. Treatment included a temporary cholecystostomy and administration of the novel antifungal f...
The abundance, formation, and persistence of long sediment-laden algal turfs on Florida’s coral reefOA Marine
Over recent decades, coral reefs worldwide have experienced substantial declines in coral cover as a result of interacting global and local stressors. On Florida’s coral reef, coral cover has declined by over 70%, in recent decades, coinciding with pronounced shifts in benthic community composition. One increasingly common feature of these reefs is long sediment-laden algal turfs (LSATs), which form a turf–sediment matrix that...
