Carbonate Chemistry in Groundwater and Rivers Draining to the Baltic Sea: Implications for Coastal Ocean AcidificationNARA Subscribed
Terrestrial inputs can alter total alkalinity (TA) and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) of the coastal ocean and modify seawater pH. Here, we first characterize the carbonate system in river and groundwater draining to the Baltic Sea using observations of TA, DIC, δ 13 C-DIC, and major ions across 6 countries and 17 beaches. We then assess whether submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) may impact coastal acidification. TA and D...
Rocio virus sustained circulation in Brazil: first infection case in a horse highlights the need for enhanced arbovirus surveillanceNARA Subscribed
Rocio virus (ROCV), a neurotropic arbovirus of the Orthoflavivirus genus, caused Brazil’s largest encephalitis outbreak in the 1970s but has since been rarely detected. We report the first ROCV encephalitis clinical case after nearly 40 years and isolated and sequenced the virus from CNS tissue of a horse. Metatranscriptomics enabled full-genome sequencing, revealing divergence from the reference sequence at an evolutionary ra...

Genome mining to elucidate antimicrobial and plant growth promoting potentials in Lactic acid bacteriaNARA Subscribed
The pangenome of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) was constructed with five bacterial strains isolated from oat silage produced by smallholder farmers from a region in the highlands of the Colombian Andes. The goal of this work was to use genome mining to elucidate some potential mechanisms of action associated with plant growth promotion and biocontrol in LAB. Multiple genes were uncovered, including those associated with antibiosi...
Mush system heterogeneities control magma composition and eruptive style on the Ocean Island of El Hierro, Canary IslandsNARA Subscribed
The study of recent eruptions in Ocean Islands (OIs) provides a unique window into the magma dynamics governing their plumbing systems and the mechanisms leading to eruptions. Here we present an integrated approach to unravel the dynamics of magmatic plumbing systems through detailed spatial, petrological, and geochemical characterisation of volcanic products ranging from crystal-rich ankaramitic lavas to trachytic tephras. We...
FreshLanDiv : A Global Database of Freshwater Biodiversity Across Different Land UsesNARA Subscribed
Motivation Freshwater ecosystems have been heavily impacted by land‐use changes, but data syntheses on these impacts are still limited. Here, we compiled a global database encompassing 241 studies with species abundance data (from multiple biological groups and geographic locations) across sites with different land‐use categories. This compilation will be useful for addressing questions regarding land‐use change and its impact...
Defining an ageing-related pathology, disease or syndrome: International Consensus StatementNARA Subscribed
Around the world, individuals are living longer, but an increased average lifespan does not always equate to an increased health span. With advancing age, the increased prevalence of ageing-related diseases can have a significant impact on health status, functional capacity and quality of life. It is therefore vital to develop comprehensive classification and staging systems for ageing-related pathologies, diseases and syndrom...
Global mercury concentrations in biota: their use as a basis for a global biomonitoring frameworkNARA Subscribed
An important provision of the Minamata Convention on Mercury is to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the adopted measures and its implementation. Here, we describe for the first time currently available biotic mercury (Hg) data on a global scale to improve the understanding of global efforts to reduce the impact of Hg pollution on people and the environment. Data from the peer-reviewed literature were compiled in the G...
