Stygobiont species show common, typical traits derived from their adaptation to subterranean life.Due to the general absence of light in cave environments, the majority of them are eyeless.Although the absence of eyes generally does not allow them to perceive luminous stimuli, some stygobionts still present phototaxis.Previous studies determined th
Quantitative Association between Nighttime Lights and Geo-Tagged Human Activity Dynamics during Typhoon Mangkhut
The daily nighttime lights (NTL) and the amount of location-service requests (NLR) data have been widely used as a proxy for measures of disaster-induced power outages and geo-tagged human activity dynamics.However, the association between the two datasets is not well understood.In this study, we investigated how the NTL signals and geo-tagged huma
Hawking evaporation time scale of topological black holes in anti-de Sitter spacetime
It was recently pointed out that if an absorbing boundary condition is imposed at infinity, an asymptotically anti-de Sitter Schwarzschild black hole with a spherical horizon takes only a finite amount of time to evaporate away even if its initial mass is arbitrarily large.We show Prone Surf that this is a rather generic property in AdS spacetimes:
Screw dislocations in BCC transition metals: from ab initio modeling to yield criterion
We show here how density functional theory calculations can be STAND used to predict the temperature- and orientation-dependence of the yield stress of body-centered cubic (BCC) metals in the thermally-activated regime where plasticity is governed by the glide of screw dislocations with a $1/2 langle 111 angle $ Burgers vector.Our numerical model i
