Embryo development and global change: how do reptile embryos respond to ecologically relevant thermal stress?
(2019-09-15)
Two components of global change, climate change and urbanization, both contribute to increased ambient temperatures that may induce heat stress or mortality in animals. Each phenomenon independently results in both increased ...
Embryo development and global change: how do reptile embryos respond to ecologically relevant thermal stress?
(2019-09-15)
Two components of global change, climate change and urbanization, contribute to increased ambient temperatures that cause heat stress or mortality in animals. Many animals can respond to harmful temperatures behaviorally; ...
Embryological development and global change: how do reptile embryos respond to thermal stress in urban environments?
(2019-09-15)
Two components of global change, climate change and urbanization, both contribute to increased ambient temperatures that may induce heat stress or mortality in animals. Each phenomenon independently results in both increased ...
Enhancing Diversity in Undergraduate Science: Self-Efficacy Drives Performance Gains with Active Learning
(2019-08-07)
Efforts to retain underrepresented minority (URM) students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) have shown only limited success in higher education, due in part to a persistent achievement gap between ...
Equatorial Evolution of the Fast Magnetosonic Mode in the Source Region: Observation-Simulation Comparison of the Preferential Propagation Direction
(2020-05-28)
Recent analysis of an event observed by the Van Allen Probes in the source region outside the plasmapause has shown that fast magnetosonic waves (also referred to as equatorial noise) propagate preferentially in the azimuthal ...
Equatorial Evolution of the Fast Magnetosonic Mode in the Source Region: Observation-Simulation Comparison of the Preferential Propagation Direction
(2023-01-25)
Recent analysis of an event observed by the Van Allen Probes in the source region outside the plasmapause has shown that fast magnetosonic waves (also referred to as equatorial noise) propagate preferentially in the azimuthal ...
Equatorial Pitch Angle Distributions of 1-50 keV Electrons in Earth's Inner Magnetosphere: An Empirical Model Based on the Van Allen Probes Observations
(2023-01-19)
Using 7 years of data from the Helium, Oxygen, Proton, and Electron instrument on the Van Allen Probes, equatorial pitch angle distributions (PADs) of 1-50 keV electrons in Earth's inner magnetosphere are investigated ...
Eukaryotic N-Glycosylation Occurs via the Membrane-anchored C-terminal Domain of the Stt3p Subunit of Oligosaccharyltransferase
(2020-07-24)
N-Glycosylation is an essential and highly conserved protein
modification. In eukaryotes, it is catalyzed by a multisubunit
membrane-associated enzyme, oligosaccharyltransferase (OT).
We report the high resolution ...
EUV emissions from solar wind charge exchange in the Earth's magnetosheath: Three-dimensional global hybrid simulation
(2020-06-05)
In this paper, a three-dimensional (3-D) global hybrid simulation code and a 3-D geocoronal hydrogen model are used to systematically study the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emissions at 30.4nm produced by solar wind charge ...
EUV emissions from solar wind charge exchange in the Earth's magnetosheath: Three-dimensional global hybrid simulation
(2022-10-25)
In this paper, a three-dimensional (3-D) global hybrid simulation code and a 3-D geocoronal hydrogen model are used to systematically study the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emissions at 30.4nm produced by solar wind charge ...
Evolution of CIR storm on 22 July 2009
(2020-06-09)
Global images of ion intensities are deconvolved from TWINS ENA images during the main and recovery phase of a CIR storm on 22 July 2009. The global spatial ion images taken at different times, along with solar wind data, ...
Evolution of CIR storm on 22 July 2009
(2022-10-25)
Global images of ion intensities are deconvolved from TWINS ENA images during the main and recovery phase of a CIR storm on 22 July 2009. The global spatial ion images taken at different times, along with solar wind data, ...
Evolution of life histories along elevational gradients: Trade-off between parental care and fecundity
(2020-04-20)
Life history responses to environmental conditions include a combination of fecundity-survival schedules and behavioral strategies that yield the highest fitness in a given environment. In this study, we examined the pattern ...
Evolution of low-altitude and ring current ENA emissions from a moderate magnetospheric storm: Continuous and simultaneous TWINS observations
(2020-06-12)
The moderate storm of 22 July 2009 is the largest measured during the extended solar minimum between December 2006 and March 2010. We present observations of this storm made by the two wide-angle imaging neutral-atom ...
The evolution of signal design in manakin plumage ornaments
(2022-07-29)
Animal signals are characterized by two design components: efficacy (detectability) and content (message being conveyed). Selection for efficient signal perception should favor the evolution of traits that exhibit an optimal ...

Eleutherodactylus planirostris (Greenhouse Frog), originally from Cuba, the Bahamas, and the Florida Keys, has been introduced to mainland Florida and has spread across the southeastern US. We used automated recording ...
Experimental characterization of broadband electrostatic noise due to plasma compression
(2020-06-05)
For a wide variety of laboratory and space plasma environments, theoretical predictions state that plasmas are unstable to inhomogeneous flows over a very broad frequency range. Such sheared flows are generated in the ...
Explaining the Railsback stretch in terms of the inharmonicity of piano tones and sensory dissonance
(2015-10-26)
The perceptual results of Plomp and Levelt for the sensory dissonance of a pair of
