The Ilkurlka structure is an ~12 km diameter buried circular aeromagnetic anomaly within the Officer Basin in Western Australia. Prior studies postulated a range of origins, including meteorite impact. We report the presence of pervasive deformation in the first drill cores from the structure. Brecciated sandstone and siltstone contain arrays of quartz grains with concussion fractures and rare sho

Pollinators benefit from increasing floral resources in agricultural landscapes, which could be an underexplored co-benefit of mass-flowering crop cultivation. However, the impacts of mass-flowering crops on pollinator communities are complex and appear to be context-dependent, mediated by factors such as crop flowering time and the availability of other flower resources in the landscape. A synthe

Solid-state klystron modulators are typically based on oil-immersed high-voltage (HV) pulse transformers due to their high performance, robustness, and topological simplicity. However, in considering high-power multi-millisecond pulsed applications based on this topology, modulator power components and their design become increasingly complicated and, correspondingly, modulator size becomes proble

Early diagnosing and patient individualized biomarker profiling are two key elements for curative interventions within cancer. Detecting cancer, when the tumor is still localized, allows for a more efficient treatment-either through surgery alone or with systemic therapies, treating a naïve and less heterogeneous tumor cell population. Developing tumors consist of complex and stage-dependent genet

This study brings a systematic review that evaluated 43 articles on Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) applied to stormwater management in urban areas. This review aims to establish a reference on NBS effectively applied and whose environmental, social, and economic benefits have been duly discussed. The results address 13 NBS techniques/methodologies implemented and their ecosystem benefits. Our findin

Det svenska 1920-talet präglades av världsunika konflikter på arbetsmarknaden och sociala problem. Men ur kaoset växte det moderna Sverige. Rasmus Törnblom påminner om att den sociala ingenjörskonsten ursprungligen anfördes av just ingenjörer, och kanske särskilt av visionären Sven Lübeck.

Exploring a wide variety of visualizations of pregnancy and fetuses through 300 years of history, this timely volume offers a fresh look at the influential feminist concept of the "public fetus."Images of pregnant and fetal bodies are today visible everywhere. Through ultrasound screenings at maternity clinics, birth videos on social media platforms, or antiabortion propaganda, visualizations of p

Silicon is a crucial nutrient that can join with the element oxygen to form a substance commonly called silica. Silica, commonly known as glass, is found in rocks in the Earth’s crust and dissolves into the oceans, where organisms like algae and sponges use it to build their glassy skeletons. This process, called biosilicification, is extremely important in the silica cycle. Over time, organisms h
