The last glacial period is characterized by abrupt climate oscillations, also known as Dansgaard-Oeschger (D-O) cycles. However, D-O cycles remain poorly documented in climate proxy records covering the penultimate glacial period. Here we present highly resolved and precisely dated speleothem time series from Sofular Cave in northern Türkiye to provide clear evidence for D-O cycles during Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 6 as well as MIS 2-4. D-O cycles are most clearly expressed in the Sofular carbon isotope time series, which correlate inversely with regional sea surface temperature (SST) records from the Black Sea. The pacing of D-O cycles is almost twice as long during MIS 6 compared to MIS 2-4, and could be related to a weaker Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and a different mean climate during MIS 6 compared to MIS 2-4, leading most likely to a higher threshold for the occurrence of D-O cycles.

January 2025
Enalos Research and Development IKE, 15234 Athens, Greece.
This research aimed to investigate the potential of using alkali activation technology to valorize steel slag and bauxite residue for the production of high-performance pavement blocks. By utilizing these industrial by-products, the study seeks to reduce their environmental impact and support the development of sustainable construction materials. Lab-scale testing showed that bauxite pavers showed a decrease in mechanical strength with increasing replacement of ordinary Portland cement.

Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research (IDAEA-CSIC), 08034 Barcelona, Spain. Electronic address:
Carbonaceous aerosols (CA), composed of black carbon (BC) and organic matter (OM), significantly impact the climate. Light absorption properties of CA, particularly of BC and brown carbon (BrC), are crucial due to their contribution to global and regional warming. We present the absorption properties of BC (b) and BrC (b) inferred using Aethalometer data from 44 European sites covering different environments (traffic (TR), urban (UB), suburban (SUB), regional background (RB) and mountain (M)).

Article Synopsis
- Patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) often have antibodies against aquaporin-4 (AQP4), making MRI monitoring critical for understanding the disease's progression.
- A retrospective study involved MRI data from 525 AQP4-IgG-seropositive NMOSD patients across 11 countries, focusing on the types and locations of lesions in the central nervous system.
- Results showed a high prevalence of hyperintense lesions in the brain and significant patterns of myelitis in the spinal cord, emphasizing the importance of MRI in tracking this condition.

The membrane modification can reduce fouling and enhance filtration performance. Protease, lipase, and amylase were immobilized on poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) microfiltration membranes using a polydopamine coating in a one-step method.

Article Synopsis
- Liquid biopsy utilizing cell-free DNA (cfDNA) analysis shows potential for non-invasive cancer diagnosis and monitoring, but the mechanisms behind cfDNA release from tumors are not fully understood.
- A study on colorectal cancer cell lines revealed that increased cfDNA levels were linked to slower cell growth and more cell death, with less DNA methylation correlating to higher cfDNA shedding.
- Researchers developed a methylation signature to differentiate between high and low cfDNA releasers, which was validated on additional colorectal cancer cell lines and patient-derived organoids, demonstrating its predictive capability for cfDNA release.
