Recent observations from spaceborne microwave sensors have revealed detailed structure of the surface
flow over the equatorial eastern Pacific in the boreal fall season. A marked acceleration of surface wind
across the northern sea surface temperature (SST) front of the cold tongue is a prominent feature of the
regional climate....
Toxoplasma gondii, the most common parasitic infection of human brain and eye, persists across lifetimes, can progressively damage sight, and is currently incurable. New, curative medicines are needed urgently. Herein, we develop novel models to facilitate drug development: EGS strain T. gondii forms cysts in vitro that induce oocysts in...

Toxin production by cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) in freshwater systems has lasting ecological and human impacts. Nutrients, light availability, hydrology, and microbial community composition impact the frequency and intensity of toxic cyanoHABs. Climate change will exacerbate toxic cyanoHABs, making real time and predictive monitoring a vital tool for managing...
Newcomers’ seamless onboarding is important for open collaboration communi- ties, particularly those that leverage outsiders’ contributions to remain sustainable. Nevertheless, previous work shows that OSS newcomers often face several barriers to contribute, which lead them to lose motivation and even give up on contributing. A well-known way to help newcomers...
The tropical Pacific Ocean is a climatically important region, home to El Niño and the Southern Oscillation. The simulation of its climate remains a challenge for global coupled ocean–atmosphere models, which suffer large biases especially in reproducing the observed meridional asymmetry across the equator in sea surface temperature (SST) and...
Pseudomonas syringae is a phylogenetically diverse species of Gram-negative bacterial plant pathogens responsible for crop
diseases around the world. The HrpL sigma factor drives expression of the major P. syringae virulence regulon. HrpL controls
expression of the genes encoding the structural and functional components of the type III secretion system...
A resonantly-coupled α-Stirling (RCAS) cooler was designed and constructed.
Tests on air and helium were performed with constant driving displacement over a range
of frequencies. The effects of changing driving amplitude and charged pressure were
studied.
The use of stainless steel bellows in place of pistons eliminated the problem of...
