Gulf Stream warm-core rings (WCRs) impinging onto the Mid-Atlantic Bight (MAB) shelf edge can induce substantial water exchange between and slope seas. Combining satellite imagery idealized ocean models, this study investigates long-neglected influence of submarine canyons on WCR impingement process. Satellite images show onshore intrusion concentrated near MAB shelf-break canyons, indicating c...

Despite a century of research into the nature of animal cell division, a molecular explanation for the positioning of the actomyosin contractile ring has remained elusive. The discovery of a novel interaction between regulators of Rho family small GTPases has revealed a link between the mitotic microtubules and the contractile ring during the later stages of mitosis. The properties of the inter...
