Assessing the geometry of the Main Himalayan thrust in central Nepal: A thermokinematic approach
(Geological Society of America, 2024-05-14)Since the 2015 Gorkha earthquake in Nepal, the relationship between the geometry of megathrusts and the control it exerts over the nucleation and propagation of major earthquakes has become an important topic of debate. ... -
Foraminifera of the Gault Clay Formation: An update
(Elsevier BV, 2020-08)The foraminifera of the Gault Clay Formation (Middle and Upper Albian) are reviewed and their biostratigraphy compared to that of the standard ammonite-based zonation and the original bed numbers that are used by most ... -
Practical Demonstration and Novel Optimization Control for a Smart Soft Open Point to Maximize the Synergy between the DC Metro Line and the LV Distribution Grid
The steady increment in electrical loads often requires expensive and disruptive upgrading of the electrical power supply infrastructure. This can be avoided by synergizing the DC railway networks with local AC grids using ... -
New geographies of crime? Cybercrime, southern criminology and diversifying research agendas
(SAGE Publications, 2024)<jats:p> This paper argues that reconsidering the disciplinary significance of the geographies of crime is timely. It has three aims. First, it identifies recent developments in the geographical study of crime, arguing ... -
ForCenS-LGM: a dataset of planktonic foraminifera species assemblage composition for the Last Glacial Maximum
(Springer Science and Business Media LLCEngland, 2024-04-10)Species assemblage composition of marine microfossils offers the possibility to investigate ecological and climatological change on time scales inaccessible using conventional observations. Planktonic foraminifera - ... -
Physiological and morphological plasticity in response to nitrogen availability of a yeast widely distributed in the open ocean
(Oxford University Press (OUP)England, 2024-04-10)Yeasts are prevalent in the open ocean, yet we have limited understanding of their ecophysiological adaptations, including their response to nitrogen availability, which can have a major role in determining the ecological ... -
Planktonic Marine Fungi: A Review
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2024-03)<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Fungi in marine ecosystems play crucial roles as saprotrophs, parasites, and pathogens. The definition of marine fungi has evolved over the past century. Currently, “marine fungi” ... -
Are impacts of the invasive alien plant Crassula helmsii mediated by detritus? A litter experiment in a temperate pond
(Springer, 2024-05-10)Because of the high growth rates often achieved by invasive alien macrophytes, their establishment in recipient ecosystems may alter the abundance and composition of litter entering detrital pathways, representing a ... -
Mitigating topological freezing using out-of-equilibrium simulations
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2024)Motivated by the recently-established connection between Jarzynski’s equality and the theoretical framework of Stochastic Normalizing Flows, we investigate a protocol relying on out-of-equilibrium lattice Monte Carlo ...
