The Indian Summer Monsoon typically begins over Northeast India (NEI) about 2 weeks earlier than monsoon onset over Kerala, extending the rainy season in NEI to around 150 days. This early onset is strongly linked to planetary‐scale processes, particularly interactions with extratropical Rossby waves. These waves facilitate the downward and southward intrusion of potential vorticity, which triggers low‐level cyclonic vorticity...

Chronic low-grade adipose tissue inflammation is associated with metabolic disorders. Inflammation results from the intertwined cross-talks of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory pathways in the immune response of adipose tissue. In addition, adipose FABP4 levels and lipid droplet proteins are involved in systemic and tissue inflammation. Dysregulated adipocytes help infiltrate immune cells derived from bone marrow responsi...

Soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) facilitates the conversion of methane to methanol at a non-heme Fe IV 2 intermediate MMOH Q , which is formed in the active site of the sMMO hydroxylase component (MMOH) during the catalytic cycle. Other biological systems also employ high-valent Fe IV sites in catalysis; however, MMOH Q is unique as Nature’s only identified Fe IV 2 intermediate. Previous 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopic studi...
