We present new, low-frequency images of the powerful FRI radio galaxy Hydra A (3C218), which lies at the center of the poor Abell cluster A780. Images were made with the Very Large Array at frequencies of 1415, 330, and 74 MHz, with resolutions on the order of 20 . The morphology of the source is seen to be more complex and larger than previously known, and extends nearly 8 (530 kpc) in a North...

Clark's nutcrackers (Nucifraga columbiana) were trained to search for a hidden goal located in the center of a four-landmark array. Upon completion of training, the nutcrackers were presented with tests that expanded the landmark array in the east-west direction, north-south direction and in both directions simultaneously. Although the birds learned to search accurately at the center of the lan...

Vitamin B12 deficiency leads to serious health problems, whilst sub-optimal status is associated with raised biochemical markers of disease risk. Identifying at-risk groups could benefit both individuals and public health. Dietary data were sourced from the New Zealand Adult Nutrition Survey 2008/2009, involving a nationally representative sample of 4721 participants. Ethnic groupings were by r...

High energy weather events are often expected to play a substantial role in biotic community dynamics and large scale diversity patterns but their contribution is hard to prove. Currently, observations are limited to the documentation of accidental records after the passing of such events. A more comprehensive approach is synthesising weather events in a location over a long time period, ideall...

Travelling waves (TW) are among the most striking ecological phenomena emerging in oscillating populations. Despite much theory, understanding how real-world TW arise remains a challenge for ecology. Herein, we analyse 16-year time series of cyclic vole populations collected at 314 localities covering 2500 km² in France. We found evidence for a linear front TW spreading at a speed of 7.4 km yea...

Ocean Drilling Program Hole 894G, sited on a small horst within Hess Deep, was drilled in lower oceanic crust that was generated at the East Pacific Rise and then rifted by the propagating Cocos/Nazca divergent plate boundary. Difficult drilling conditions in fractured gabbros resulted in a washed-out hole. Despite these unfavorable circumstances, open-hole logs from the Formation MicroScanner ...

On 6 February 2023, an M7.8 devastating earthquake started rupturing the East Anatolian fault system in Turkey, resulting intense shaking that lasted over a minute. A second of magnitude 7.5 struck near city Elbistan few hours later. Both these events are associated with system. The sequence caused widespread damage and collapse structures densely populated areas throughout Southern Turkey Nort...

The present study was performed to determine the infection status of anisakid larvae in marine fish collected from 3 sea areas of the Republic of Korea. Total 86 marine fish (8 species) collected from the East Sea (Goseong-gun, Gangwon-do), 171 fish (10 species) from the South Sea (Sacheon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do), and 92 fish (7 species) from the Yellow Sea (Incheon Metropolitan City) were examin...
