Smart devices and emerging technologies are highly popular devices and technologies that considerably improve our daily living by reducing or replacing human workforces, treating disease, monitoring h...
Global plastic production surpassed 436 million metric tonnes in 2023, with polyolefins, polyethylene and polypropylene, and polyesters, polyethylene terephthalate and polybutylene adipate terephthala...
A deep-sea alkaline lipase, MyLip2, fromMoritella yayanosiiwas identified from a metagenomic library of 1,048,576 genes. The wild-type enzyme preferred medium- to long-chain p-nitrophenyl esters, with...
Due to their increasingly large volumes, outsourcing of trajectory storage and querying to third-party service providers has become attractive. However, in such outsourced environments, service provid...
Anaerobic oxidation of methane is a key process reducing methane emissions in oxygen-depleted marine environments such as deep-sea cold seeps. However, the stability and adaptability of microbial inte...
Throughout the Pacific Islands land use changes have resulted in intensified contaminant impacts that threaten the integrity of coastal ecosystems and communities. Pu'uloa (Pearl Harbor) in Hawai'i of...
Process-based forest models are widely used to simulate forest growth and responses to environmental change, but their calibration and application often require many computationally expensive model ev...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic autoimmune disease defined by persistent synovial inflammation, progressive cartilage and bone erosion, and extra-articular manifestations. Current tre...
Offshore wind farms are rapidly expanding into deeper and more remote ocean regions. Their structural safety and operational reliability in harsh marine environments have garnered widespread global at...
The development of effective methodologies for extracting microplastics from marine matrices is key for designing appropriate measures to reduce and mitigate their effects. The diversity of protocols ...
The Mediterranean Basin is facing an increasing frequency and intensity of wildfires driven by climate change, raising concern about their off-site impacts on marine ecosystems. This study provides fo...
As both iconic Arctic megafauna and long-exploited marine resources, walruses (Odobenus rosmarus) have left an abundant osteological record across the Holarctic. However, distinguishing sex, ontogenet...
Microplastic pollution in the Arctic Ocean poses potential risks to local ecosystems, particularly as global warming accelerates sea ice loss. Although high microplastic abundances in sea ice have bee...
Plastic pollution is a growing concern in West Africa's marine environment, yet the processes governing its fate remain poorly understood. The coastline of Côte d'Ivoire is particularly vulnerable due...
Real-world computer-use tasks often span multiple applications and devices, requiring agents to coordinate heterogeneous environments under dynamic runtime failures. Existing multi-device agent system...
Power grid state estimation relies on sensor measurements that are increasingly vulnerable to adversarial corruption in cyberphysical environments, potentially leading to significant deviations in sys...
Camera traps have become a core tool in ecological research, enabling large-scale, noninvasive monitoring of wildlife populations and behavior. By automatically recording animals as they pass within v...
During the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), there was an increase in global temperatures and emissions of isotopically depleted carbon, resulting in a negative carbon isotope excursion (CIE). ...
Bacterial adaptation to fluctuations in salinity includes the intracellular accumulation of organic compounds called compatible solutes (CS) such as the amino acid derivatives ectoine and 5-hydroxyect...
Ocean monitoring is essential for understanding climate change and marine ecosystem dynamics, yet achieving comprehensive global coverage remains a challenge in oceanography. Current technologies face...
