Measuring coastal absolute sea-level changes using GNSS interferometric reflectometry by Peng, Dongju, Feng, Lujia, Larson, Kristine M., Hill, Emma Mary

“…Our results show that the accuracy of daily mean sea levels from GNSS-IR is <1.5 cm compared with co-located tide-gauge records, and amplitudes of annual cycle and linear trends estimated from GNSS-IR measurements and tide-gauge data agree within uncertainty. We also find that the de-seasoned and de-trended SSH time series from GNSS-IR and collocated satellite altimetry are highly correlated and the estimated annual amplitudes and linear trends statistically agree well, indicating that GNSS-IR has the potential to monitor coastal absolute sea-level changes and provide valuable information for coastal sea-level and climate studies.…”

Genotype-specific expression and NLR repertoire contribute to phenotypic resistance diversity in Plantago lanceolata by Safdari, Pezhman, Höckerstedt, Layla, Brosche, Mikael, Salojärvi, Jarkko, Laine, Anna-Liisa

“…Analysis on the conserved NB-ARC domain demonstrated a diverse NLR repertoire in P. lanceolata consistent with the high phenotypic resistance diversity in this species. We find evidence of selection generating diversity at some of the NLR loci. …”

Metacognitive bias resulting from trade-off between local and global motion signals by Lee, Alan L. F., Yabuki, Hana, Lee, Isaac C. L., Or, Charles C.-F.

“…Specifically, participants systematically gave higher confidence ratings to an incoherent pattern with clear elements (i.e., strong local but weak global signals) than a coherent pattern with noisy elements (i.e., weak local but strong global signals). We did not find any systematic effects of local/global stimulus features on metacognitive sensitivity. …”

Essential role of lattice oxygen in methanol electrochemical refinery toward formate by Meng, Fanxu, Wu, Qian, Elouarzaki, Kamal, Luo, Songzhu, Sun, Yuanmiao, Dai, Chencheng, Xi, Shibo, Chen, Yubo, Lin, Xinlong, Fang, Mingliang, Wang, Xin, Mandler, Daniel, Xu, Jason Zhichuan

“…Here, using 18O isotope-labeled catalysts, we find that the oxygen atoms in formate generated during the methanol e-refinery reaction can originate from the catalysts' lattice oxygen and the O-2p-band center levels can serve as an effective descriptor to predict the catalytic performance of the catalysts, namely, the formate production rates and Faradaic efficiencies. …”

Insights from coral microatolls into sea-level variability and subduction zone behavior by Sarkawi, Gina Muthia

“…Using a RSL record from 1906 – 2018 CE, we establish the relationship of living coral microatolls to low water levels, 27 ± 12 cm above extreme low water, and find that coral deaths are controlled by El Niño events during non-tectonic episodes. …”

Validating Thai translations of perceptual soundscape attributes: a non-Procrustean approach with a Procrustes projection by Watcharasupat, Karn N., Ooi, Kenneth, Lam, Bhan, Ong, Zhen-Ting, Jaratjarungkiat, Sureenate, Gan Woon-Seng

“…In order to align the principal component space to the two-dimensional circumplex space, this work presents a simple and numerically stable method based on the orthogonal Procrustes projection, to find the optimal two-dimensional orthogonal transform that aligns the first two principal components with the axes corresponding to Pleasantness and Eventfulness as defined in ISO/TS 12913-3:2019. …”

Design, characterization and properties of nitrogen-containing novel organic N-type materials by Wu, Yuechao.

“…In past decades,organic semiconductors have caused a lot of interests because of their potential applications in field-effect transistors(FET),organic-light-emitting devices(OLED)and photovoltaic cells.Among them,developing high-efficient n-type organic materials for organic field-effect transistors(OFETs)is very urgent.Currently, p-type organic semiconductors are well-developed and their mobility can go as high as4.8 cm2V-1S-1.Since p-type and n-type materials are equally important for the fabrication of p-n junctions and complementary logic circuits,the demand to find the promising n-type counterparts is necessary. …”

Mechanistic insights into PTS2-mediated peroxisomal protein import : the co-receptor PEX5L drastically increases the interaction strength between the cargo protein and the receptor... by Kunze, Markus, Wiesinger, Christoph, Schmid, Johannes A., Berger, Johannes, Malkani, Naila, Maurer-Stroh, Sebastian

“…In addition, cargo binding is a prerequisite for the interaction between PEX7 and PEX5L and ectopic overexpression of PTS2-carrying cargo protein drastically increases the formation of PEX7-PEX5L complexes in this assay. Consistently, we find that the peroxisomal transfer of PEX7 depends on cargo binding and that ectopic overexpression of cargo protein stimulates this process. …”

Mechanistic insights on protein aggregation and phase separation by Casablancas Antràs, V

“…The primary aggregation of tau R3 includes dimerisation and the formation of a tetrameric nucleus that elongates into fibrils, which can fragment. We find that D-TLKIVW, originally developed as an elongation blocker, has a more nuanced mode of action than expected and targets in particular the nucleus.…”
