Lors du développement d’un système complexe, les modèles de données sont la clé d’un processus d’ingénierie réussi : ils contiennent et organisent toutes les informations manipulées par les différentes fonctions impliquées dans la conception du système. Le fait que les modèles de données évoluent tout au long de la conception soulève des problèmes ...
By modulating the structure, diversity, and trophic outputs of microbial communities, phages play crucial roles in many biomes. In oligotrophic polar deserts, the effects of katabatic winds, constrained nutrients, and low water availability are known to limit microbial activity. Although phages may substantially govern trophic interactions in cold ...
We present a detailed study of ionized outflows in a large sample of similar to 650 hard X-ray-detected active galactic neuclei (AGNs). Using optical spectroscopy from the BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey (BASS), we are able to reveal the faint wings of the [OIII] emission lines associated with outflows covering, for the first time, an unexplored range...
В статье рассматриваются некоторые аспекты антропогенеза, возможные механизмы разрыва прачеловека с животным миром и его превращение в Homo sapiens в процесс выживания в изменившихся природных условиях. Утверждается, что для объяснения этого феномена требуется коррекция дарвиновского подхода к эволюции. Подчеркивается необходимость сохранения коэво...
Maintenance-mode feedback from low-accretion-rate active galactic nuclei (AGNs), manifesting itself observationally through radio-loudness, is invoked in all cosmological galaxy formation models as a mechanism that prevents excessive star formation in massive galaxies (M-* greater than or similar to 3 x 10(10) M-circle dot). We demonstrate that at ...

Indirect interactions occur when a species affects another species by altering the density (density-mediated interactions) or influencing traits (trait-mediated interactions) of a third species. We studied variation in these two types of indirect interactions in a network of red wood ants and symbiotic arthropods living in their nests. We tested wh...
We consider adaptive change of diet of a predator population that switches its feeding between two prey populations. We develop a novel 1 fast-3 slow dynamical system to describe the dynamics of the three populations amidst continuous but rapid evolution of the predator's diet choice. The two extremes at which the predator's diet is composed solely...

Statistical analysis of a protein multiple sequence alignment can reveal groups of positions that undergo interdependent mutations throughout evolution. At these so-called correlated positions, only certain combinations of amino acids appear to be viable for maintaining proper folding, stability, catalytic activity or specificity. Therefore, it is ...
