The potential effects of tidal and diel cycles on fluxes and concentrations of carbon dioxide (pCO), methane (CH), and nitrous oxide (NO) along with associated biogeochemical processes remain poorly understood in tropical estuaries. The present study, based on six-hourly sampling for nine consecutive days at three locations along the salinity gradient in the Mahanadi estuary of India, revealed that the tidal forcing affected pCO and CH in the mixing zone with elevated concentrations during low tide with maximum concentrations up to 21,606 μatm and 285 μM, respectively. pCO increased with decrease in tidal height within low and high tide duration as well, possibly due to higher relative contribution of freshwater with high CO. NO, on the other hand, showed no significant variability with tidal cycle or water level fluctuation during high and low tide. Barring the offshore region, the study area was source of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere.

In this study, metagenomic analysis was employed to investigate the bacterial communities in the Muan tidal mudflat of the Republic of Korea. We used metagenomic analysis to identify the microbial community in tidal soil dominated by Proteobacteria. From this environment, the bacterial strain, sp.

Peripheral endothelial function, which accounts for the variability in shear stimulus, can be assessed using shear-mediated dilation normalized to the increased shear stimulus. Similarly, shear-mediated dilation of the internal carotid artery (ICA), an index of cerebrovascular endothelial function, should be normalized to increased shear stimulus. However, this approach has not yet been validated.

Aim: Intraoperative lung-protective ventilation strategies (LPVS) have been shown to improve lung oxygenation and prevent postoperative pulmonary problems in surgical patients. However, the application of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)-based LPVS in emergency traumatic brain injury (TBI) has not been thoroughly explored. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of drive pressure-guided individualized PEEP on perioperative pulmonary oxygenation, postoperative pulmonary complications, and recovery from neurological injury in patients with TBI.

Dynamic resistance exercise (RE) produces sinusoidal fluctuations in blood pressure, with hypotension and cerebral hypoperfusion commonly observed immediately following RE. Whether the cerebral vasculature adapts to these regular blood pressure challenges is unclear. This study examined the cerebrovascular response to post-dynamic RE orthostasis.

Transport of floating debris around the Pearl River Estuary (PRE, China) in summer is investigated by using drifter trajectories, a regional ocean model and a particle tracking model. Comparisons between simulated and drifter trajectories demonstrate that the particle tracking model accurately simulates the movement of floating debris. Ideal experiment results show that 85 % of floating debris is stranded in the PRE due to density currents, tidal currents, and wind effects.
