SINGLE-CELL GENOMICS REVEALS FEATURES OF A COLWELLIA SPECIES THAT WAS DOMINANT DURING THE DEEPWATER HORIZON OIL SPILL

Single-cell genomics reveals features of a Colwellia species that was dominant during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill

During the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico Collections a deep-sea hydrocarbon plume developed resulting in a rapid succession of bacteria.Colwellia eventually supplanted Oceanospirillales, which dominated the plume early in the spill.These successional changes may have resulted, in part, from the changing composition and abu

Convergent Evolution of Unique Morphological Adaptations to a Subterranean Environment in Cave Millipedes (Diplopoda).

Animal life in caves has fascinated researchers and the public alike because of the unusual and sometimes bizarre morphological adaptations observed in numerous troglobitic species.Despite their worldwide diversity, the adaptations of cave millipedes (Diplopoda) to a troglobitic lifestyle have rarely been examined.In this study, morphological chara

Current Progress towards the Integration of Thermocouple and Chipless RFID Technologies and the Sensing of a Dynamic Stimulus

To date, no printable chipless Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) sensor-related publications in the current literature discuss the possibility HB720 of thermocouple integration, particularly for the use in extreme environments.Furthermore, the effects of a time-dependent stimulus on the scattering parameters of a chipless RFID have never been d
