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.…”

Revised Age Estimates for Northern Resident Killer Whales (Orcinus orca) Based on Observed Life‐History Events and Demographic Discounting by Andrew W. Bateman, Jessica MacLean, Eva Stredulinsky, Brianna Wright, Graeme Ellis, Thomas Doniol‐Valcroze, Chris Darimont, John K. B. Ford

“…Our age estimation approach incorporates new data from photo‐identification surveys into a framework that relies on accrued knowledge of demographic rates from known‐age individuals. We use Bayes' law to determine conditional probability distributions from age‐at‐event data, incorporating mathematical descriptions of demographic patterns parameterised from the data. …”

Site‐Specific Impacts of Urbanisation on Annual Survival of a Forest Bird by Boglárka Bukor, Brett K. Sandercock, Karl L. Evans, Ivett Pipoly, Krisztina Sándor, András Liker, Gábor Seress

“…Survival probabilities decreased with bird age at both urban sites in most years, but such patterns were not detected at forest sites. Our results demonstrate that the impacts of aging on avian survival rates can diverge between urban and forest habitats, and that the demographic factors regulating urban populations can vary between locations. …”
