Article Synopsis
- Mesophotic ecosystems, found between 30-150 meters deep, cover a large part of the oceans but have been under-researched due to accessibility challenges.
- Recent advances in underwater technology and increased interest have led to significant exploration of these ecosystems, particularly tropical and temperate coral reefs.
- An updated database review identified four main research biases: uneven geographical studies, differences in depth focus, varied research fields, and a scarcity of long-term studies, indicating areas for improvement in future research.
Article Synopsis
- * The study will follow 300 participants with chronic low back pain, assessing factors like sleep disturbances and pain, using various methods over 12 months to identify their impact on developing multiple COPCs.
- * The research aims to analyze how sleep and circadian rhythm issues relate to pain intensity, psychological distress, and the spread of pain across the body, potentially guiding future treatment and prevention approaches for these conditions.
Article Synopsis
- - The Mapping Imaging Spectrometer for Europa (MISE) is an infrared instrument on NASA's Europa Clipper mission, aimed at understanding the composition and habitability of Europa's ocean and its icy surface.
- - MISE will capture data from 0.8 to 5 μm with high spatial (25 m per pixel) and spectral resolution, helping identify critical components such as water ice, salts, acids, and organics on Europa's surface.
- - This instrument, along with other Europa Clipper payloads, will enhance our knowledge of Europa's geological processes and surface structure, as detailed in the accompanying paper describing MISE's science goals, design, operations, and expected data products.
Population genetic analyses can provide useful data on species' regional connectivity and diversity which can inform conservation and restoration efforts. In this study, we quantified the genetic connectivity and diversity of Stephanocoenia intersepta corals from shallow (<30 m) to mesophotic (30-45 m) depths across Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. We generated single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers to identify genetic structuring of shallow and mesophotic S.

However, until recently, it has been impossible to study their dynamical behavior at industry-relevant temperatures. Using a combination of machine learning potentials and advanced simulation techniques, we investigate the cleavage of the N[Formula: see text] triple bond on the Fe(111) surface.
