Article Synopsis
  • Obesity is a complex disorder influenced by a mix of genetics and environmental factors, with several gene variants linked to food intake and leptin's effects in the brain.
  • Advances in next-generation sequencing have revealed a higher incidence of genetic factors associated with obesity than previously thought.
  • Early diagnosis of both syndromic and non-syndromic monogenic obesity is crucial to prevent the use of ineffective treatments like surgery or non-specific medications.

Pump-probe experiments investigate the strain sensitivity of crustal elastic properties, showing nonlinear variations during the strain cycle. In the laboratory, pre-seismic reductions in seismic velocity indicate that asperity contacts within the fault zone begin to fail before the macroscopic frictional sliding. The recognition of such effects in natural seismic-cycles has been challenging.

Article Synopsis
  • * In September 2023, researchers detected a significant seismic signal from East Greenland that corresponded to a rock-ice avalanche leading to a tsunami in Dickson Fjord.
  • * The study reveals that the tsunami transformed into a 7-meter-high long-duration seiche, demonstrating the interplay between glacial melting and geological hazards, emphasizing the dangerous effects of climate change on these environments.
