Summary: Eastern North American migratory monarch butterflies exhibit migratory behavioral states in fall and spring characterized by sun-dependent oriented flight.However, it is unclear how monarchs transition between these behavioral states at their overwintering site.Using a modified Mouritsen-Frost flight simulator, we confirm individual direct
We report a rare clinical case of infection with the bacterium Sphingobium yanoikuyae in an 87-year-old patient undergoing peritoneal dialysis for end-stage renal failure.Sphingobium yanoikuyae is an aerobic, gram-negative bacterium known for its ability to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and its bioremediation potential.A member of the Sp
The unreasonable development and utilization of groundwater in Dehui City, China, has resulted in poor groundwater quality conditions.Based on the collection of a large amount of groundwater chemical data and hydrogeological data collected by Dehui Saddle Bags City from 1992 to 2015, this paper uses hydrogeological analysis, graphic and other metho
For the traditional PI controlled urban rail hybrid energy storage system, there are problems such as cumbersome parameter adjustment and lag in response to train start and stop conditions.An improved multi-step prediction control algorithm for urban rail hybrid energy storage system was proposed in this paper.The multi-step predictive current cont
Magnetotactic bacteria orient in magnetic fields with the help of their magnetosome chain, a linear structure of membrane enclosed magnetic nanoparticles (magnetosomes) anchored to a cytoskeletal filament.Here, we use simulations to study the assembly and the stability of magnetosome chains.We introduce a computational model describing the attachme
