Variations of temperature, salinity and oxygen of the Baltic Sea for the period 1950 to 2020 by Vera Stockmayer, Andreas Lehmann

“…Likewise, the positive SST trends are accompanied by a decrease in surface oxygen. In greater depths of the Baltic Sea, oxygen decrease is stronger, which is partly related to the observed increase of the vertical salinity gradient.…”

Post-Flood Analysis for Damage and Restoration Assessment Using Drone Imagery by Daniel Whitehurst, Kunal Joshi, Kevin Kochersberger, James Weeks

“…After this validation, simulations are performed using the Digital Elevation Models collected after the flood and we found that a similar rainfall event on the new terrain would cause even worse flooding, with water depths between 29% and 105% higher. These simulations could be used to guide recovery efforts as well as aid response efforts for any future events. …”

Effects of the cranial parasite Tylodelphys sp. on the behavior and physiology of puye Galaxias maculatus (Jenyns, 1842) by Ruby López-Rodríguez, Mario George-Nascimento, Konrad Górski

“…However, parasitized fish more frequently swam close to the water surface, whereas non-parasitized fish more frequently swam at intermediate depths. When faced with a simulated predator attack, unparasitized fish showed more frequent fleeing behavior as well as a more intense post-fleeing activity. …”

Nationwide Determination of Required Total Lengths of Multiple Borehole Heat Exchangers under Variable Climate and Geology in Japan by Yoshitaka Sakata, Takao Katsura, Katsunori Nagano

“…Three-dimensional estimates of ground thermal conductivity from our previous study at the depths of the BHEs were used. A 5-year system operation was simulated in a total of 4059 cells with 81 combinations of individual lengths and total numbers of BHEs to determine the shortest total length required to achieve sustainable use and targeted performance. …”

Mammary Gland Structures Are Not Affected by an Increased Growth Rate of Yearling Ewes Post-Weaning but Are Associated with Growth Rates of Singletons by Emmanuelle Haslin, Rene A. Corner-Thomas, Paul R. Kenyon, Adrian J. Molenaar, Stephen T. Morris, Hugh T. Blair

“…The experiment aimed to examine the impacts of an increased growth rate of ewes between three and seven months of age on udder development using ultrasound and to establish whether ultrasonography could be used to identify ewe mammary structures that may be indirect indicators of singleton growth to weaning. Udder dimensions, depths of gland cistern (GC), parenchyma (PAR) and fat pad (FP) were measured in late pregnancy (P107), early lactation (L29), and at weaning (L100) in 59 single-bearing yearling ewes selected from two treatments. …”
