Turbulence and Cloudiness in Cumulus-Topped Marine Boundary Layers

Keywords: Turbulence; Cumulus clouds; Mesoscale processes 1. Introduction Boundary layer shallow cumulus clouds cover vast areas from the tropics to the poles (Warren et al. 1988; Tselioudis et al. 2024). These clouds are routinely observed over the subtropical oceanic trade-wind region associated with the descending branch of the Hadley circulation.

Abstract Disulfide tethering is a site-directed method of drug discovery used to identify hits for challenging targets. We applied tethering to target oncogenic KRAS, a small GTPase once considered undruggable due to its high nucleotide affinity and a perceived absence of binding sites. We prepared a library of 2160 disulfide-containing fragments.

MicroAge mission: experimental design and hardware for a bespoke culture system supporting tissue-engineered skeletal muscle - npj Microgravity

Abstract Microgravity provides a unique model for accelerated skeletal muscle loss and potentially muscle ageing. During spaceflight, astronauts experience pronounced muscle atrophy, similar to age-related decline on Earth but over a much shorter timescale. Despite daily aerobic and resistance exercise on the International Space Station (ISS), countermeasures remain suboptimal, reflecting similar challenges seen in ageing populations.
