Size, not color, drives assortative mating and influences fledging survival, weight and immunity in a polymorphic owl by Deseada Parejo, Erick González-Medina, Ángel Cruz-Miralles, Jesús Miguel Avilés

“…While color-based assortative mating had no direct impact on any of the fitness proxies studied, greyer pairs exhibited higher feeding rates to offspring than browner pairs. These results underscore the importance of simultaneously considering traits that may covary with color and shape mating patterns to understand the persistence of color polymorphisms in nature.…”

Access and Retrieval of Recent Journal Articles: A Comparative Study of Chemists and Geoscientists by Julie Hallmark

“…Not surprisingly, a majority of respondents in both disciplines reported using the Internet for both access and retrieval, and many added insightful, substantive remarks that added depth and detail to the data analysis. The return rates of 75% in geoscience and 57% in chemistry suggest a high level of concern among these scientists for their journal literature. …”

Nucleon decay as a probe of flavor symmetry: the case of fake unification by Masahiro Ibe, Satoshi Shirai, Keiichi Watanabe

“…By introducing flavor symmetry through the FN mechanism, the model addresses the flavor puzzle of quark and lepton mass hierarchies and mixing patterns. Our analysis demonstrates that nucleon decay rates and branching fractions in the fake GUT are sensitive to flavor symmetry, providing a means to distinguish it from conventional GUT predictions. …”

Coastal aquifers key contributors to ocean chemistry through solute fluxes by Yael Kiro

“…Moreover, they are dynamically linked to sea-level changes: falling sea levels enhance SGD-driven solute inputs, whereas rising sea levels suppress them. These patterns suggest that SGD fluxes may regulate long-term climate trends, including rates of global cooling or warming.…”

Comparative analysis of soil thermal conductivity in the permafrost regions of the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau and the Arctic by Wenhao Liu, Ren Li, Tonghua Wu, Guojie Hu, Xiaodong Wu, Shenning Wang, Junjie Ma, Jianzong Shi, Shengfeng Tang, Xiaofan Zhu, Yongping Qiao

“…The mean STC values in the QTP permafrost region during the thawing period are significantly higher than those during the freezing period. (2) STC of the QTP exhibits a fluctuating pattern at different depths, in contrast, the average STC value in the Arctic increases steadily with depth, with an increase rate of approximately 0.005 Wm−1 K−1/cm. (3) The analysis of influencing factors revealed that although moisture content, bulk density, and porosity are the primary drivers of regional variations in STC between the QTP and the Arctic permafrost, moisture elements in the QTP region have a greater influence on STC and the effect is stronger with increasing depth and during the freeze–thaw cycles. …”
