In a study of US Marine recruits, seroprevalence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 IgG was 9.0%. Hispanic and non-Hispanic Black participants and participants from states affected earlier in the pandemic had higher seropositivity rates. These results suggest the need for targeted public health strategies among young adults at increased risk for infection.

The shortfall of seafarers is a constant challenge in the shipping industry. With the development of the world economy and changes in employees' psychological indicators, seafarers' spiritual needs play an increasingly important role in their work intentions. This study proposed that seafarers' work values should be a useful explanation for the shortfall of seafarers.

Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is a key part of the food web in the Southern Ocean ecosystem. Significant inter-annual fluctuations in population dynamics make stock assessment and management of its population a significant challenge. To better understand the population dynamics and fluctuation of krill, a survey-based age-structured catch-at-length model (ACL) is used to estimate the periodic fluctuations, based on length data collected from scientific surveys under the US Antarctic Marine Living Resources (AMLR) Program between 1992 and 2011.

Non-canonical signaling initiated by hormone-responsive G protein-coupled receptors from subcellular compartments.

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest family of membrane receptors in the mammalian genomes, regulate almost all known physiological processes by transducing numerous extracellular stimuli including almost two-thirds of endogenous hormones and neurotransmitters. The traditional view held that GPCR signaling occurs exclusively at the cell surface, where the receptors bind with the ligands and undergo conformational changes to recruit and activate heterotrimeric G proteins. However, with the application of advanced biochemical and biophysical techniques, this conventional model is challenged by the elucidation of spatiotemporal GPCR activation with the evidence that receptors can signal from subcellular compartments to exhibit various molecular and cellular responses with physiological and pathophysiological relevance.

This study assessed the influence of anthropogenic short-term nutrient enrichment (hereafter enriched) effects on seagrass population dynamics (recruitment, growth rate and mortality), morphometric traits, productivity, and leaf biodiversity assemblages in the islands of Andaman and Nicobar (ANI) of India and contrasted these findings with away from these enriched areas (hereafter pristine). Seagrass (Thalassia hemprichii and Cymodocea rotundata), and sediment samples were collected in the dry season (October-May) of ANI. Reconstruction techniques, an indirect measurement of plant growth was used to derive leaf plastochrone interval (PI), i.

There is increasing awareness that marine invertebrates such as abalones are at risk from the combined stressors of fishing and climate change. Abalones are an important marine fishery resource and of cultural importance to Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. A highly priced marine delicacy, they are inherently vulnerable: individuals are slow-growing and long-lived and successful reproduction requires dense assemblages.
