Improved design of an advanced Ice Giants Net Flux Radiometer by Aslam, S, Calcutt, SB, Hewagama, T, Irwin, PG, Nixon, C, Quilligan, G, Roos-Serote, MC, Villanueva, G

“…IG-NFR will measure the net radiation flux, in seven spectral bands, each with a 10° Field-Of-View (FOV) and in five viewing angles as a function of altitude. Net flux measurements within spectral filter bands, ranging from solar to far-infrared, will help derive radiative heating and cooling profiles, and will significantly contribute to our understanding of the planet’s atmospheric heat balance and structure, tropospheric 3-D flow, and compositions and opacities of the cloud layers. …”

Developing a framework for tracking antimicrobial resistance gene movement in a persistent environmental reservoir by Mathers, AJ, Li, TJX, He, Q, Narendra, S, Stoesser, N, Eyre, DW, Walker, AS, Barry, KE, Castañeda-Barba, S, Huang, FW, Parikh, H, Kotay, S, Crook, DW, Reidys, C

“…We successfully reconstructed the complete bacterial genome and plasmid assemblies of isolates sharing the same&nbsp;<em>bla</em>_KPC&nbsp;carbapenemase gene to understand evolution over time in six confined hospital drains over five years. From 82 isolates we identified 14 unique strains from 10 species with 113&nbsp;<em>bla</em>_KPC-carrying plasmids across 16 distinct replicon types. …”
