While bubble plumes have been acoustically imaged in the water column above marine gas
hydrate deposits in many studies, little is known about the temporal variation in plume intensity. In
July 2008, we conducted surveys using 3.5 and 12 kHz echosounders and a 75 kHz acoustic Doppler
current profiler (ADCP)...

Milk contains elements of numerous proteolytic systems (zymogens, active proteases, protease inhibitors and protease activators) produced in part from blood, in part by mammary epithelial cells and in part by immune cell secretion. Researchers have examined milk proteases for decades, as they can cause major defects in milk quality and...
Worldwide measurements of nearly 130C3 species covering all
major plant functional types are analysed in conjunction with
model simulations to determine the effects of mesophyll
conductance (gm) on photosynthetic parameters and their
relationships estimated from A/Ci curves. We find that an
assumption of infinite gm results in up to 75%...
Climate warming is projected to affect forest water yields but the effects are expected to vary. We investigated how forest
type and age affect water yield resilience to climate warming. To answer this question, we examined the variability in historical
water yields at long-term experimental catchments across Canada and the...
In this article, we provide a brief overview of generative artificial intelligence and large language models. We then propose eight critical questions that libraries should ask when exploring this technology and its implications for their communities. We argue that libraries have a unique role in facilitating informed and responsible use...
Members of Gram-positive Actinobacteria cause economically important diseases to plants. Within the Rhodococcus genus,
some members can cause growth deformities and persist as pathogens on a wide range of host plants. The current model
predicts that phytopathogenic isolates require a cluster of three loci present on a linear plasmid, with...
Lateral stirring is a basic oceanographic phenomenon affecting the distribution of physical, chemical, and biological fields. Eddy stirring at scales on the order of 100 km (the mesoscale) is fairly well understood and explicitly represented in modern eddy-resolving numerical models of global ocean circulation. The same cannot be said for...
