Bioerosion, resulting from microbioerosion or biogenic dissolution, macrobioerosion and grazing, is one the main processes involved in reef carbonate budget functioning. On healthy reefs, most of produced carbonates are preserved accumulate. But context global change, reefs increasingly degraded as environmental factors such ocean warming acidification affect negatively accretion positively bio...

We tested the hypotheses that Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]) and sarcomere length (SL) modulate force development via graded effects on cross-bridge kinetics in chemically permeabilized rat cardiac trabeculae. Using sinusoidal length perturbations, we derived the transfer functions of stiffness over a range of [Ca(2+)] at a constant SL of 2.1 micrometer (n = 8) and at SL of 2.0, 2.1, and 2.2 m...

Whereas the olefin metathesis is recognized as a powerful tool to produce alkene, use of fluoroalkenes in metathesis-catalyzed reactions still remains major current challenge. Herein, we presented main developments that field both ring-closing and cross-metathesis, highlighting improvements these past years.

We investigate the cross-section asset-pricing patterns of major cryptocurrencies from 2017 to 2021. show that basis, momentum, and basis–momentum factors earn statistically significant excess returns, a result consistent with findings reported in commodity futures literature. The basis is strongest signal predicting cross-sectional differences cryptocurrency returns; momentum-induced risk prem...
