Features of possible regional ionospheric memory manifested themselves at low-latitudes under solar eclipse conditions.
Cryptic coral reef microhabitats and the functional role of brittle stars in biogenic sediment generationNARA Subscribed
Recent studies have highlighted the ecological importance of cryptic habitat space on coral reefs. These microhabitats, ranging from framework cavities to intra-branch space within marine macroalgae, can harbour diverse and ecologically relevant taxa. Here we show that brittle stars, ubiquitous across such cryptic habitats (reported densities exceeding 100 ind. m −2 ), represent an important, but previously neglected, source o...
Integrated assessment of toxic elements in PM10 during cold season in a coastal city of southern PeruNARA Subscribed
This study evaluated concentrations of particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter ≤ 10 µm (PM10) and potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in three urban zones of Ilo, a coastal city in southern Peru, during the cold season (July–October 2022). The cold season is characterised by greater atmospheric stability and a lower mixing layer height, which favours pollutant accumulation and scenarios of higher potential exposure. Three c...
The germline MLH1 c.-42 C > T (rs41285097) promoter variant has been identified in cases with MLH1-deficient colorectal or endometrial cancers but remains a variant of uncertain significance. Genetic testing identified two new MLH1 c.-42 C > T index cases from Australia and the USA. Clinicopathologic and molecular characterisation of tumour and non-neoplastic tissues was performed to investigate the potential mechanism of path...
Wet Atmospheric Deposition Damage on Coral Limestone: An Assessment for Conservation PurposesNARA Subscribed
Coral limestone is an important building material worldwide. In this research, a limestone of coral origin (called múcara stone from Veracruz, Mexico) was subjected to weathering tests with the aim to develop an equation relating wet atmospheric deposition volume to stone damage. A two-year rain sampling campaign was performed in Veracruz, Mexico. The volume weighted mean (VWM) of major ions in precipitation was used to prepar...
