      Braun, Camrin D. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2018-09)
      Highly migratory marine fishes support valuable commercial fisheries worldwide. Yet, many target species have proven difficult to study due to long-distance migrations and regular deep diving. Despite the dominance of ...

    • Using maximum entropy production to describe microbial biogeochemistry over time and space in a meromictic pond 

      Vallino, Joseph J.; Huber, Julie A. (Frontiers Media, 2018-10-01)
      Determining how microbial communities organize and function at the ecosystem level is essential to understanding and predicting how they will respond to environmental change. Mathematical models can be used to describe ...

    • Radium isotopes as tracers of boundary inputs of nutrients and trace elements to the coastal and open ocean 

      Kipp, Lauren (Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2018-09)
      Nutrients and trace metals are vital for supporting life in the ocean, but the boundary processes that control the distributions of these elements are poorly constrained. Radium isotopes are well suited to studying inputs ...

      Gruen, Danielle S. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2018-09)
      Life is ubiquitous in the environment and an important mediator of Earth’s carbon cycle, but quantifying the contribution of microbial biomass and its metabolic fluxes is difficult, especially in spatially and temporally-remote ...

    • Leonardo da Vinci’s discovery of the dynamic soaring by birds in wind shear 

      Richardson, Philip L. (2018-07-03)
      Although Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) is well-known to have studied bird flight, few people realize that he was the first to document flight maneuvers now called dynamic soaring. Birds use these maneuvers to extract ...

    • Sparsened neuronal activity in an optogenetically activated olfactory glomerulus 

      Braubach, Oliver R.; Tombaz, Tuce; Geiller, Tristan; Homma, Ryota; Bozza, Thomas; Cohen, Lawrence B.; Choi, Yunsook (Nature Publishing Group, 2018-10-08)
      Glomeruli are the functional units of olfactory information processing but little remains known about their individual unit function. This is due to their widespread activation by odor stimuli. We expressed channelrhodopsin-2 ...
