Introduction Hypoxia-inducible factor α (HIF-α) family members are key transcription factors mediating cellular responses to hypoxia. However, their specific roles in the greenfin horse-faced filefish, Thamnaconus septentrionalis , remain unclear. Methods The hypoxia sensitivity of T. septentrionalis was determined by the critical O 2 tension for loss of equilibrium (LOEcrit). Three TsHIF-α genes (TsHIF-1α, TsHIF-2α, and TsHIF...

Efficient prediction of shallow-water acoustic transmission loss (TL) is crucial for underwater detection, recognition, and communication systems. Traditional physical modeling methods require repeated calculations for each new scenario in practical waveguide environments, leading to low computational efficiency. Deep learning approaches, based on data-driven principles, enable accurate input–output approximation and batch pro...

Water is an important dispersal vector for seeds of riparian plants, but little is known on how this form of dispersal, called hydrochory, varies throughout seasons and through geomorphically different areas. Therefore, we trapped seeds in 25 x 25 Astroturf mats along a free-flowing boreal river for an entire year. Sites mirrored the full range of geomorphic variation in the area and traps were emptied before and after the ann...
