Some aspects of biology and fishery of walleye pollock <i>Theragra chalcogramma</i> in the southwestern Chukchi Sea relative to the size and age structure by A. V. Buslov, E. E. Ovsyannikov

“…However, the backward migration is doubtful; the pollock, once migrated to the Chukchi Sea, remain in this new habitat, as could be seen from the age-length dependence for a part of the stock distinguished by lower growth rate because of dwelling in severe conditions of this area. …”

Utilization of shrimp head powder to enhance color performance and growth of multicolor betta fish (Betta splendens) by Andri Iskandar, Fauzan Arya Maulana, Hendriana Andri, Kusumanti Ima, Permatasari Sheny, Wahyudi Imam Tri

“…The research procedure included the preparation of shrimp head meal, mixing feed with TKU, fish rearing, and observation of changes in color brightness, weight and length growth, survival rate, and water quality. The results showed that the utilization of shrimp head meal supplemented into the feed improved the performance of brightness and color patterns in multi-colored cupang fish, including length gain during the treatment, with optimum results shown in the 10% TKU treatment.…”

Time-varying spectral power of resting-state fMRI networks reveal cross-frequency dependence in dynamic connectivity. by Maziar Yaesoubi, Robyn L Miller, Vince D Calhoun

“…Despite high spatial resolution, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) suffers from low temporal resolution due to modulation with slow-varying hemodynamic response function (HRF) and also relatively low sampling rate. This limits the range of detectable frequency bands in fMRI and consequently there has been no evidence of cross-frequency dependence in fMRI data. …”

Influence of Water Injection Pressure on Methane Gas Displacement by Coal Seam Water Injection by Tianwei Shi, Yishan Pan, Wenhong Zheng, Aiwen Wang

“…The test results show that with the same displacement time, the ratio of displaced methane increases with the increase in the water injection pressure. The displacement rate increases with the increase in the water injection pressure at the stage without water discharge, while the water displacement rate under different water injection pressures differed slightly; in the later displacement stage, a higher water injection pressure of the coal sample results in a faster attenuation of the displacement rate and water displacement rate due to the decrease in the methane content in the coal sample. …”

Slugs hide in the dark: Artificial light at night alters fitness and activity of dominant herbivores with consequences for ecosystem functioning by Vincent Grognuz, Flavienne Landolt, Julia Curty, Eva Knop

“…In one of the two illuminated slug species, we found that ALAN reduced its activity at night, juvenile growth, and survival rate. At the community level, feeding activity of slugs was reduced in artificially illuminated sites, and this was related to reduced herbivory. …”

The role of vascularity and the fibrovascular interface in interstitial lung diseases by Jana Dietrich, Alice Kang, Birger Tielemans, Stijn E. Verleden, Hassan Khalil, Florian Länger, Philipp Bruners, Steven J. Mentzer, Tobias Welte, Michael Dreher, Danny D. Jonigk, Maximilian Ackermann

“…Currently, therapeutic approaches based on specific structural targeting of pulmonary fibrosis are limited to nintedanib and pirfenidone, which can only slow down disease progression leading to a lower mortality rate. Lung transplantation is currently the only available curative treatment, but it is associated with high perioperative mortality. …”
