A potential for climate benign direct air CO2 capture with CO2-driven geothermal utilization and storage (DACCUS) by Martina Leveni, Jeffrey M Bielicki

“…We focus on the process integration of DACCUS and present a case study of its potential deployment and scaling in the Gulf Coast of the United States. We combine data from prior analyses for a novel investigation of two DACCUS configurations: (1) a DACCUS heat system uses the geothermal heat to regenerate the solid sorbent in the DACC process, and (2) a DACCUS heat and power system uses the electricity generated from the produced geothermal heat for the DACC process. …”

Labeling Poststorm Coastal Imagery for Machine Learning: Measurement of Interrater Agreement by Evan B. Goldstein, Daniel Buscombe, Eli D. Lazarus, Somya D. Mohanty, Shah Nafis Rafique, Katherine A. Anarde, Andrew D. Ashton, Tomas Beuzen, Katherine A. Castagno, Nicholas Cohn, Matthew P. Conlin, Ashley Ellenson, Megan Gillen, Paige A. Hovenga, Jin‐Si R. Over, Rose V. Palermo, Katherine M. Ratliff, Ian R. B. Reeves, Lily H. Sanborn, Jessamin A. Straub, Luke A. Taylor, Elizabeth J. Wallace, Jonathan Warrick, Phillipe Wernette, Hannah E. Williams

“…Here, we investigate the process of labeling data, with a specific focus on coastal aerial imagery captured in the wake of hurricanes that affected the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of the United States. The imagery data set is a rich observational record of storm impacts and coastal change, but the imagery requires labeling to render that information accessible. …”

Geographic variation in plant community structure of salt marshes: species, functional and phylogenetic perspectives. by Hongyu Guo, Scott A Chamberlain, Eran Elhaik, Inder Jalli, Alana-Rose Lynes, Laurie Marczak, Niv Sabath, Amy Vargas, Kazimierz Więski, Emily M Zelig, Steven C Pennings

“…We tested these hypotheses in salt marshes of two regions: The southern Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of the United States. We examined the characteristics of plant community composition at each salt marsh site, how community similarity decayed with distance within individual salt marshes versus among sites in each region, and how community similarity differed among regions, using species, functional and phylogenetic perspectives. …”

Barriers to Eastern Oyster Aquaculture Expansion in Virginia by Jennifer Beckensteiner, David M. Kaplan, David M. Kaplan, Andrew M. Scheld

“…Virginia had the second lowest level of total production of cultured oysters per leased acre among the states on the East and Gulf Coasts of the United States. These results indicate that there is room for oyster aquaculture expansion in Virginia if societal, regulatory, and economic barriers can be reduced or if existing leased areas are used more efficiently.…”

It is classified as a member of the Perkinsozoa, a recently established phylum considered close to the ancestor of ciliates, dinoflagellates, and apicomplexans, and a key taxon for understanding unique adaptations (<it>e.g</it>. parasitism) within the Alveolata. …”
