Grapevine trunk diseases threaten sustainable viticulture, while wine lees remain an underexploited biocontrol-relevant by-product within the circular economy framework. An integrated bioprocess was developed to upgrade lees into high-molecular-weight biomolecule mixtures and low-molecular-weight peptide-enriched fractions through a defined sequence of unit operations: fermentation design by using Saccharomyces monocultures an...
Reconsidering the role of introduced species in the climate‐affected and highly invaded eastern MediterraneanNARA Subscribed
Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential relevance for achieving conservation and sustainability targets set by the Kunming–Mon...
Ocean acidification, largely driven by the uptake of anthropogenic carbon dioxide, is reflected in a sustained decline in seawater pH. This paper examines the dynamics of surface-ocean pH at Station ALOHA over the period 1985–2024 using fractional integration methods, which allow for a flexible characterisation of persistence and trend behaviour. The differencing parameter is estimated under alternative assumptions concerning...
Oceanographic buoys are essential platforms for marine observation, supporting real-time monitoring, climate studies, operational oceanography, coastal management, and offshore activities. This review maps the scientific literature on oceanographic buoys and identifies the main research sectors that structure the field. A Scopus search using TITLE-ABS-KEY((oceanographic OR metocean OR “ocean observing” OR “ocean observation”)...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
Exploring the Relationship Between Personality, Interest, and Success in Cognitive Enrichment in Western Gorillas (Gorilla gorilla)NARA Subscribed
Environmental enrichment is a valuable tool for promoting primate welfare in captivity. In this context, research on personality can help clarify how individual differences influence engagement with environmental enrichment at the individual level. Numerous studies suggest that specific personality traits may be associated with heightened motivation to explore or solve environmental enrichments tasks. Nevertheless, this relati...
Purpose Systematic collection and analysis of antimicrobial resistance data from key bacterial pathogens is essential to contribute to control antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The aim of this work was to survey the drug resistance on clinically relevant organisms stratified according to age, gender, clinical specimens and facilities. Methods Microbiological data were collected from 55 centers across 24 states in Mexico between...
Assessment of Bottom Trawl Impacts on the Status of Seabed Communities in European SeasNARA Subscribed
Bottom trawling affects seabed habitats, but its large‐scale impacts remain poorly quantified. Assessment of trawling impacts is essential to support monitoring and achieving sustainability objectives under international conventions, sustainable development goals, and seafood certification programs. We present a Europe‐wide quantitative assessment of bottom trawling impacts, accounting for regional seabed‐community sensitivity...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) disproportionately affects women and carriers of the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele (APOE4), yet little is known about how sex and APOE interact to influence white matter (WM) integrity during disease progression. We integrated diffusion MRI and matched blood transcriptomic data to investigate these interactions and their underlying biological mechanisms. WM microstructure was quantified using diffusion te...
