The complexity of forest management has increased with the scope of resources of concern and the level of scrutiny from stakeholders. The design and use of specialized computer software, often referred to as “decision support systems” (DSS), is one method for helping managers deal with this complexity. DSS have proven...
A weakness of next-hop routing is that following a link or router failure there may be no routes between some source-destination pairs, or packets may get stuck in a routing loop as the protocol operates to establish new routes. In this article, we address these weaknesses by describing mechanisms to...
Chordomas are uncommon neoplasms arising from notochord remnants, most commonly
occurring in the axial skeleton. Extraskeletal soft tissue chordomas are rare primary tumors, and
primary intestinal chordomas have not been reported. Herein we report 24 cases of spontaneous
primary intestinal chordomas in zebrafish, as well as 9 spontaneous vertebral chordomas....

The increase in atmospheric concentrations of water vapor with global warming is a large positive feedback in the climate system. Thus, even relatively small errors in its magnitude can lead to large uncertainties in predicting climate response to anthropogenic forcing. This study incorporates observed variability of water vapor over 2002–2009...
We lack a deep understanding of genetic and metabolic attributes specializing in microbial consortia for initial and subsequent waves of colonization of our body habitats. Here we show that phylogenetically interspersed bacteria in Clostridium cluster XIVa, an abundant group of bacteria in the adult human gut also known as the...
Carbonatable calcium silicate cement (CSC) is a promising approach to reduce the carbon footprint associated with concrete production. Carbonatable CSC gains strength by reacting with carbon dioxide (CO2). While the concept of carbonation is well known, more information on the curing process is needed. This study focuses on studying the...
Research clearly demonstrates that parents pass risk for depression and antisocial behavior on to their children. However, most research confounds genetic and environmental mechanisms by studying genetically related individuals. Furthermore, most studies focus on either depression or antisocial behavior in parents or children, despite evidence of co-occurrence and shared etiology,...
