Synthesis of evidence yields high social cost of carbon due to structural model variation and uncertainties.

Estimating the cost to society from a ton of CO-termed the social cost of carbon (SCC)-requires connecting a model of the climate system with a representation of the economic and social effects of changes in climate, and the aggregation of diverse, uncertain impacts across both time and space. A growing literature has examined the effect of fundamental structural elements of the models supporting SCC calculations. This work has accumulated in a piecemeal fashion, leaving their relative importance unclear.

- * Researchers collected and analyzed 421 ticks from various migratory songbird species, identifying key microbial communities and several pathogens present in those ticks.
- * Findings reveal that specific microbial interactions among ticks could shape pathogen dynamics, highlighting "hotspots" where migrating birds may contribute to the spread of ticks and their associated diseases over long distances.
Our previous work has established that micron-resolution photolithography can be employed to make microsquare nanoband edge electrode (MNEE) arrays. The MNEE configuration enables systematic control of the parameters (electrode number, cavity array spacing, and nanoelectrode dimensions and placement) that control geometry, conferring a consistent high-fidelity electrode response across the array (, high signal, high signal-to-noise, low limits of detection and fast, steady-state, reproducible and quantitative response) and allowing the tuning of individual and combined electrode interactions. Building on this, in this paper we now produce and characterise a micropore nanoband electrode (MNE) array designed for flow-through detection, where an MNEE edge electrode configuration is used to form a nanotube electrode embedded in the wall of each micropore, formed as an array of pores of controlled size and placement through an insulating membrane of sub-micrometer thickness.

The arthroscopic Trillat dynamic stabilization technique has shown great results at 2 years in terms of stabilization and functional outcomes on the general population. The hypothesis is that it could do so in at-risk for dislocation athletic population for stabilization and return to sport, with results comparable to the reference techniques.

- Colloids experience dipolar interactions when an external AC electric field is applied, leading to the formation of particle strings at high field strengths.
- Researchers utilized the GMIN basin-hopping tool to analyze clusters of dipolar colloids with varying dipole strength and fixed orientation along the z axis, focusing on clusters containing 7 to 13 particles.
- The study reveals that at moderate dipole strengths, distinct cluster shapes like polytetrahedral, octahedral, and spiral formations emerge, with advanced algorithms enabling the identification of these stable structures in bulk systems.
