abstract = {Amidst the political and economic transformation in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) since 1989, suburbanization has emerged as a pivotal force in reshaping the urbanized landscape. This transformative process has spurred heightened interest among researchers, prompting a comprehensive analysis of the contemporary literature on suburbanization in CEE. So far, existing scientific research employed various methodologies to address the issues of suburbanization in CEE, highlighting the need for a systematization, eliminating terminological confusion and maintaining greater scientific precision. This study, employing the systematic review method and meta-analysis, meticulously examined 120 different articles to unravel the methodologies, linguistic nuances, and diverse definitions characterizing suburbanization in the region. The findings unveiled three dominant directions in defining suburbanization within CEE countries. Type A delineates suburbanization as the outflow of population from urban core to its periphery within an urban functional area. Conversely, Type B contends that the manifestation of suburbanization occurs with accelerated growth in suburbs relative to the urban core, emphasizing that the source direction of migration is not a determinative factor. The most intricate category, Type C, encapsulates Type B and introduces additional layers of internal suburbanization processes. This study lays a foundation for future research endeavours, underscoring the importance of precision in defining suburbanization and the explicit articulation of research procedures. As suburbanization continues to play a pivotal role in the evolution of urban landscapes in CEE, future studies are encouraged to delve into more nuanced analyses, offering a deeper understanding of this multifaceted phenomenon. © 2024 The Authors},

abstract = {Organisms actively respond to shifts in their environment, and these responses are evident even among microinvertebrates like tardigrades. Encystment, regarded as a form of diapause, exemplifies a tardigrade's response to environmental change. Environmental cues and unidentified internal factors regulate this process in tardigrades. While it is known that some species can form cysts, our understanding of encystment in tardigrades remains limited, necessitating further research. We investigated selected morphological and physiological aspects of encystment to improve our understanding of the organisation and physiology of encysted animals. The data collected in this study were used to examine cellular organisation, overall morphology, and anatomy, including changes during cyst formation. We also explored the relationship between the body wall and somatic muscles. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of encysted animals’ organisation, focusing on the integument and somatic muscles, as well as their role in shaping morphology during cyst formation. Additionally, the changes observed in storage cells and their significance in encystment are discussed. Despite time-dependent changes in the storage cells, our data do not support claims of organ histolysis as part of the typical changes occurring during encystment in the species we analysed. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd},

abstract = {Ovaries in a minute and mainly aquatic clitellates, collectively termed microdriles, are usually tiny paired gonads localized, depending on the family/subfamily, in segments VI, XI, XII, or XIII. Sometimes, two pairs of ovaries are present in consecutive segments, or ovaries are unpaired. Usually, accumulating yolk (vitellogenic) oocytes detach from ovaries and float in the coelom cavity. This study presents the microscopical analyses of unpaired ovaries found in two representatives of the genus Achaeta (family Enchytraeidae). The ovary is an inconspicuous organ composed of germ-line cysts uniting early meiotic cells. Cysts comprise 16 synchronously developing cells interconnected via cytoplasmic bridges to the central cytoplasmic mass, termed cytophore. Each interconnected cell has one bridge connecting it to the cytophore. Clustering germ cells are enveloped by elongated somatic cells. The developmental synchrony within cysts is lost when one cell per cyst forms prominent microvilli, gather vast amounts of nutrients (yolk), and becomes an oocyte. The remaining 15 cells do not form microvilli, grow slowly, and are regarded as nurse cells that supply the oocyte with organelles and probably macromolecules. Such cysts detach from the ovary and float freely in the segmental cavity. Nurse cells and vitellogenic oocyte are still connected to the ball-like cytophore. Vitellogenic oocytes gather vast amounts of reserve material, mainly protein spheres. Finally, oocytes lose contact with the cytophore, and nurse cells no longer accompany them. The ovary organization and oogenesis scenario observed in this study are broadly similar to that described for other enchytraeid species, such as Enchytraeus albidus and Grania postclitellochaeta, and have been classified as the “Enchytraeus” type of ovary. The obtained results show that despite the unpaired nature of the Achaeta ovary and some differences in ovary morphology and oogenesis between different enchytraeid taxa, the ovaries of these clitellates are consistently composed of 16-celled germ-line cysts equipped with cytophore. Moreover, the presence of cysts equipped with cytophore in the ovaries of the studied Achaeta specimens provides the subsequent evidence that the formation of such germ-line cysts is a conserved aspect of oogenesis within the Clitellata. This consistency in the ovarian and oogenic patterns underscores the evolutionary conservation of these reproductive traits within the Enchytraeidae and clitellate annelids. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd},

abstract = {A detailed examination of the altered silicate-carbonate xenolith embedded within the ignimbrite of the Upper Chegem Caldera revealed a new occurrence of a rare carbonate mineral known as defernite, with chemical formula Ca6[(CO3)2-x(Si2O7)x/2](OH)7[Cl1-x(H2O)x], where x ≈ 0.4. Defernite crystallizes as colorless to white fibrous aggregates, reaching 100–150 μm diameters. Subsequently, Raman investigations of defernite from the Upper Chegem Caldera were conducted to perform a comprehensive structural analysis and compare it with minerals found in other locations. During this examination, band assignments focused on the carbonate ion vibration (CO32−) with a band at 1085 cm−1 and the hydroxyl group, characterized by a series of strong bands around 3590–3600 cm−1, particularly evident in oriented crystals along the (0 1 0) plane. Experimentation involving the alteration of incident laser light polarization highlighted a reduction in the intensity of carbonate and hydroxyl-related bands and the activation of a band around 3390 cm−1. This phenomenon is explained by the formation of hydrogen bonding between hydroxyl groups and chlorine or molecular water, potentially occupying chlorine positions. Lastly, a temperature-dependent experiment demonstrated the instability of the 3390 cm−1 band, which dissipated with increasing temperature. This insight explains the band's origin around 3590 cm−1, ascribed to non-degenerate hydroxyl groups as a key marker within the defernite structure. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.},

In recent years, a number of methods have been developed to determine the content of microplastics in soil. This study compares the efficiency of microplastic extraction in two-week and three-month incubation samples from three different soils artificially contaminated with different types of microplastics. H2O2 and KOH were used as agents to remove organic matter. The effects of changing the incubation time were significant in soils with a high organic matter content. A longer incubation time resulted in a lower efficiency of microplastic extraction. Compared to the results obtained with the control method after a two-week incubation, the loose sand samples achieved a similar extraction efficiency (86%), the amount of MP recovered in the uncontaminated sandy clay samples was 75%, while the sandy clay soils contaminated with heavy metals was 44%. The samples without organic matter removal showed a significantly better recovery rate of microplastics than the samples treated with H2O2 and KOH. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.},

abstract = {During the Medieval period, Olkusz (located approximately 50 km northwest of Kraków; southern Poland) was one of the most important European cities. Its development was closely related to silver extracted from lead ores. When shallow deposits were depleted at the end of the 15th century, the construction of drainage adits became necessary to access deeper resources. The Ponikowska Adit was constructed from 1563 to 1621. It was the longest (7860 m) and most utilised. It drained rocks to the west and north of the town until 1712, when it became clogged. In the late 19th century, it was refurbished and partially reactivated. However, insufficient maintenance caused it to close again in the early 20th century. The locations of the tunnels are not known accurately. Geophysical surveys have provided insights into the underground areas. Electromagnetic profiling in frequency domain (FDEM) and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) were used to locate these tunnels. The FDEM surveys indicated variations in the subsurface conductivity. However, it did not precisely locate the adit. A sequence of low-resistivity anomalies was observed in the ERT cross-sections, rather than the anticipated high-resistivity anomalies originating from voids. The 2D modelling validated this result as an effect of filling the tunnels with deposited clay material. The ERT anomalies are consistent with the likely paths of the adit. Moreover, numerous anomalies originating from higher mining excavations were detected. The effectiveness of noninvasive geoelectrical techniques for relatively deep archaeological identification in significantly altered post-industrial areas is an innovative aspect of this study. The results indicate that combining geophysical identification and modelling with historical information is an essential and efficient tool to support the preservation of unique underground mining heritage sites. It would allow for better understanding and securing of effective historical resources for future generations. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd},

The dataset includes daily mean, maximum and minimum values of air temperature, relative air humidity, air pressure, wind speed and daily sum of solar radiation. The measurement period ran from 2018.01.01 to 2023.12.31, but it is shorter for two of the stations. Mean values were calculated from measurements taken every 10 min. Direct measurements were used to identify extreme values. The described dataset consists offour files, each for one AWS. It is available in the PANGEA online repository under a non-restrictive CC BY 4.0 licence for anyone after registration. Despite a strong correlation between the daily mean values of the parameters measured at certain stations, some differences between them were also noticeable. These were due to their location at different altitudes, in a place open to the sea or in a shaded place. Generally, values of wind speed, air humidity, solar radiation and pressure are similar to Arctowski during 2013–2017. The only notable distinction is that the mean annual air temperature and the mean air temperature in the winter months were higher than during 1977–1999 and 2013–2017. The data presented can be used as background for other research projects on King George Island, as well as for analysis of the meteorological conditions themselves.

abstract = {The Western flank of the Central Andes presents a high concentration of giant paleo-landslides that are well preserved due to the long-term aridity of the region. However, the precise timing of most of these features remains unknown, hindering our understanding of their forcing factors and frequency. To address these questions, we focused on eight giant paleo-landslides located in the Locumba landslide Cluster, near and around the Aricota rockslide, to explore their possible temporal correlation. We employed cosmogenic nuclide exposure dating to constrain the timing of these failures, sampling a total of 52 boulders. In about half of the cases, the obtained exposure ages exhibited significant scattering, including very old apparent ages up to ∼1 Ma. For these, only probable time of landslide occurrence associated with large uncertainty could be proposed. We attribute this age scattering mainly to the inheritance problem, which is expected to be very strong in these arid regions where most slopes are slowly eroding, likely at steady-state equilibrium, resulting in very high cosmogenic nuclide concentrations at the surface and shallow depths (first 20 m). Nevertheless, we obtained reliable age constraints for five of the landslides, all of which occurred during the Late and Middle Pleistocene, with mean ages of approximately 16 ka, 18 ka, 115 ka, 190–220 ka and ca. 330 ka. When compared to previous dates in the region and other climatic proxies, the time ranges of 16–18 ka and 100–120 ka correspond to two well-defined humid periods, known as Heinrich Stadial 1a, the Ouki event (during MIS5), respectively. More generally, the activity of landslides along the Central Western Andes seems to increase during interglacial periods. These results suggest that past climate changes, particularly shifts from hyper-arid to prolonged wetter conditions, played a primary role in large landslide activity in the Central Andes. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd},

As the nanoparticles, they can pass through cell membranes and organelles and accumulate in the entire cytoplasm. The red-fluorescent, water-soluble [70]fullerene derivative C70-OMe-ser, which produces reactive oxygen species upon illumination with an appropriate wavelength, passed into the cytoplasm of the middle region in the Drosophila melanogaster digestive system. To determine whether [70]fullerene nanomaterials that produce fluorescence after entering the cell cytoplasm will hurt its homeostasis, it is necessary to investigate the activation of degenerative and possibly regenerative processes. In vivo, studies on the model species D. melanogaster may help to elucidate whether the water-soluble [70]fullerene derivative that produces fluorescence can still be considered among the most promising nanomaterials. The experiment involved feeding insects ad libitum with yeast paste supplemented with 40 µg of fullerenes/mL for 1 week and 1 month. Thus, adult females and males of D. melanogaster were divided into control (CWM; CWF; CMM; and CMF) and experimental groups (FWM; FWF; FMM; and FMF). The quantitative and qualitative analysis enabled the presentation of the effects of the water-soluble [70]fullerene derivatives on cell proliferation and degeneration. Our study presented that [70]fullerene derivative showed a cytoprotective effect and activated cell proliferation. Therefore, we could conclude that analyzed carbon nanomaterials seemed to be safe for the cells into which they have penetrated. © 2024 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.},

As a result of patrol monitoring information on changes in conductivity in the longitudinal profile of the Oder were obtained. The aim of this study is to correlate these results with Sentinel – 2 satellite imagery (VIS + NIR bands) to verify the hypothesis that remote sensing methods can be used to detect salinity changes in inland flowing waters. For this purpose data acquired with the multi-parameter probe during field expeditions, remote sensing methods and Geographical Information Systems tools (such as inter-bands algebra; pixel value extraction) and statistical methods were used. We concluded that the best spectra for salinity detection is Green as well as Salinity Index (SI) mostly showed statistically significant correlations.

The area consists of various anthropogenic landforms, the stratigraphy of which has hardly been studied so far. In this study, we describe five main morphological units: Unit I (RCH) and Unit II (RCH pit), resulting from charcoal production; Unit III (shaft) and Unit IV (shaft heap), resulting from mining; and Unit V (reference forest soil). The first four units are a variation of a Technosol with inherently different properties from the reference forest soil. Unit I exhibits typical properties of a relict charcoal hearth (RCH), whereas Unit II resembles a pit. Unit III consists of a mostly infilled mining shaft remain (MSR), characterized by relocated subsoil. Unit IV consists of material from the adjacent Unit III that has been dumped directly aside. The studied RCH was used no earlier than during the second half of the 17th century, probably between 1725 and 1813. The studied MSR was used most likely between the 3rd and 5th centuries, which is much older than described so far. Together, the units reflect the characteristic heterogeneity of soils in shaft mining and RCH areas. © 2024 The Author(s). Geoarchaeology published by Wiley Periodicals LLC.},

abstract = {This study investigated the complex interactions between a novel consortium and tomato seedlings under cadmium (Cd) stress. The consortium consists of two bacteria, Pseudomonas sp. HS4 and Paenarthrobacter sp. AS8, both with proven plant growth-promoting (PGP) properties, isolated from Cd hyperaccumulators. Our research highlights the paradoxical effects of these bacteria, revealing their dual role in reducing Cd uptake while simultaneously inducing oxidative stress in plants. Hydroponic experiments showed that the consortium reduced Cd accumulation in tomato shoots by 52% compared to uninoculated controls. However, this reduction was accompanied by decreased plant biomass and increased oxidative stress, with malondialdehyde (MDA) and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) levels up to 80% and 160% higher, respectively, in inoculated plants. Root H₂O₂ production increased by 38% under 50 μM Cd without a corresponding rise in catalase (CAT) activity. Despite Cd exposure, the consortium promoted chlorophyll and carotenoid synthesis, restoring pigment levels to those of unstressed controls. Gene expression analysis revealed a complex impact on stress responses, with inoculation suppressing Sl1 gene expression in roots and upregulating the oxidative stress-related GR-1 gene in shoots. These findings highlight the complex and multifaceted relationship between beneficial bacteria and plant fitness under heavy metal stress, with significant implications for sustainable agriculture. The study raises new questions regarding the broader physiological and ecological impacts of applying hyperaccumulator-associated bacteria in crop management, emphasizing the necessity for deeper mechanistic insights into these interactions to fully harness their potential in improving crop resilience and productivity. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd},

abstract = {The Penman-Monteith-Leuning version 2 (PML-V2) evapotranspiration (ET) model, an advanced iteration of the classic Penman-Monteith (PM) model, is available globally via Google Earth Engine with a spatio-temporal resolution of 500 m and 8 days. PML-V2 improves canopy conductance estimation and incorporates carbon dioxide effects on transpiration via gross primary production. However, it faces limitations, particularly in calibration and the lack of pre-2000 data. This study applies several machine learning (ML) models—including a backpropagation neural network (BPNN), an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), support vector regression (SVR), and long short-term memory (LSTM)—to simulate PML-V2 ET in the Ahar Chay basin, Northwestern Iran. The Seto mixed forest site in Japan, characterized by a contrasting ecosystem, served as a cross-validation site to further validate the methodology. Sensitivity analysis was performed to optimize the input variables and reduce uncertainty. Among the models, LSTM demonstrated superior performance, while an ensemble of shallow ML models increased prediction accuracy by up to 24 %. The optimal model was applied to extrapolate PML-V2 ET data for the period from 1983 to 2000. In the Ahar Chay basin, actual ET (AET) was estimated using the water balance equation, as direct observations were unavailable, and was evaluated via dynamic time warping from 2002 to 2016. Notably, neural ensemble ET and PML-V2 improved ET estimates by 55 % and 41 %, respectively, over the PM model, particularly during the growing season (April–September). At the Seto site, the methodology yielded a 39 % improvement over the PM model based on observed AET data. These findings have significant implications for ecohydrology, offering improved ET estimates for future projections and historical periods prior to 2000. © 2024 The Author(s)},

abstract = {In the light of observed variability in precipitation patterns, there is a growing need for comprehensive data mining of regularly updated rainfall recording databases. Therefore, an analysis of heavy rainfall and hyetographs was conducted using a 30-year high-resolution dataset from 100 rain gauges across Poland, covering 31 646 rainfall events. Distributions of rainfall depths, durations, and intensities were explored, and maxima were compared to global records. Spatial analysis revealed significant variations in the frequency, depths, and durations of extreme rainfall across different regions. Cluster analysis determined model hyetographs for each station. The likelihood of regions belonging to clusters with three to five model hyetographs was assessed using Indicator Kriging. Findings underscore the importance of using local, characteristics rainfalls in hydrodynamic modelling of drainage systems and future rainfall scenarios. These results provide a foundational step towards understanding and monitoring the impacts of climate change on rainfall characteristics, especially extremes, in future decades. © The Author(s) 2024.},

The absolute majority of symbiotic relationships with serpulids had cnidarian partners (micropredators) in the Mesozoic and Cenozoic. There is no observed escalation in the evolution of symbiotic relationships in serpulids. There may be an optimal frequency of symbiotic relationships for serpulid fauna and when that value was achieved in the Jurassic, it stayed constant during the entire evolution of the group. However, the number of serpulid genera involved in symbiosis increased from the Jurassic (six genera) to the Cretaceous (thirteen genera). It seems that the ability to form symbiotic relationships was in general a useful trait as it spread to various branches of the serpulid phylogenetic tree. © 2023 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.},

abstract = {The presence of natural groundwater outflows depends on many factors, such as lithology, geological structure, and climate. Areas with particularly poor crenological recognition are arid and semi-arid regions, primarily due to rarity of groundwater outflows in these locations. The article presents the hydrographic and hydrochemical characteristics of selected groundwater outflows in arid and semi-arid areas. In addition to hydrographic mapping, basic physical parameters of water were measured in selected springs, such as temperature (T; °C), electrolytic conductivity (EC; µS∙cm-1), and reaction (pH; -). Laboratory analyses determined the major cations and anions in water: Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, NH4+, SO42−, Cl−, NO3−, Br−, PO43−. The analyses were performed using an ion chromatograph Metrohm 850 Professional IC. Twenty-four natural groundwater outflows in South America, Africa, and Asia were selected for research. It was found that the vast majority of outflows are transit sources. Their supply area may be far from discharge points. The supply source is rainwater or meltwater from high mountain massifs. Other types of outflow are springs of alluvial fans and braided rivers. They are fed by waters from glacial rivers, which infiltrate alluvial deposits and flow back to the surface. Hydrochemical analysis has shown that the physicochemical properties of water in dry areas vary significantly. Still in the hydrochemical type, there is a predominance of sulphate, chloride, and sodium ions. This distinguishes the spring waters from these areas in temperate latitudes, which are dominated by bicarbonate and calcium ions. © 2024. The Authors.},

abstract = {Large short-term changes in air temperature affect the functioning of living organisms in the environment and human activities. For this reason, a study of extreme positive and negative 10 min temperature changes and their causes related to atmospheric circulation was undertaken. Air temperature data for January in the period 2001–2017 in southern Poland (Sosnowiec) were analysed. Extreme ultra-short-term temperature changes were considered to be values less than or equal to 0.1 percentile (extreme temperature drops) and greater than or equal to 99.9 percentile (extreme temperature increases). The extreme ultra-short-term negative air temperature change was − 7.2°C/10 min, while the positive change was + 3.5 °C/10 min. Extreme ultra-short-term negative air temperature changes in southern Poland in January occur most frequently with the advection of air from the west (43% of cases), the inflow of maritime Polar old (transformed) air over Poland (25% of cases), western cyclonic (Wc) and north-western cyclonic (NWc) situations, a total of 34% of cases), the passage of the atmospheric front over southern Poland (59% of cases), especially a cold front (68% of cases with a front). Extreme ultra-short-term positive changes of air temperature in southern Poland in January occur most frequently with the advection of air from the south-west (43% of cases), the inflow of continental Polar air (42% of cases), anticyclonic situations (72% of cases), the occurrence of a high-pressure wedge over southern Poland (26% of cases), situations without atmospheric front (80% of cases). The direction of advection plays a secondary role in determining the values of extreme short-term changes in air temperature. More important is the speed of the influx of this air mass. Extreme ultra-short-term temperature changes are partly explained by circulation conditions. Rapid temperature changes can also occur as a result of small-scale processes in the atmosphere. © The Author(s) 2024.},

abstract = {Eskers are one of the meltwater landforms that enable the reconstruction of the nature of subglacial drainage systems. Therefore, they play a significant role in the study of palaeo ice sheets. While the spatial distribution of subglacial tunnels and their geometry resulting from the geomorphological features of eskers are relatively well known, the course and time of sedimentation processes taking place inside the subglacial conduits are understood only to a certain extent, especially in the case of eskers developed on soft substrata. The paper presents an example of an esker that developed on a soft substratum from Central-North Poland, which was formed in several stages. In the initial stage, meltwater drainage took place through a channel that dissected the substratum (N-channel). Its development was associated with intense flow under pressure, but the sediments filling the channel were already deposited under atmospheric pressure when the flow used only part of the available space of the conduit. The high frequency of large-scale, cross-stratified lithofacies indicates significant flow depth and sediment deposition under a lower flow regime. The succession filling the channel resembles the sediments of a low-sinuosity open river systems with varied channel morphology, however, it also contains deposits like the point bar succession. Later, the R-channel developed, dominated by deposition from supercritical flows, probably of a much smaller depth. The sediments were deposited from a traction carpet or a highly turbulent suspension. The massive structure of many lithofacies indicates that flow overload was common. The transformation of the system from N-channel to R-channel was probably related to the decrease in the slope of the ice sheet surface during ablation, which resulted in a reduction of the potential hydraulic pressure gradient. The final stage of esker sedimentation was associated with deposition in an open channel, which indicates the passive nature of the marginal part of the ice sheet. © 2024},

abstract = {Sulfuric acid speleogenesis (SAS) is a form of hypogene speleogenesis characterized by the formation of caves in carbonate rocks due to the presence of sulfuric acid. This study focuses on the Gruta con Lago, one of three caves identified in the Mulapampa travertine, located in the Central Andes of Peru. These caves are accessed through collapse sinkholes, and much of their morphology results from roof breakdown. The bottom of the studied cave is situated at the current water table. Despite the absence of typical solutional features associated with SAS caves, mineralogical and geochemical evidence of speleogenesis involving H2SO4 has been found in Gruta con Lago. Significant accumulations of gypsum deposits on the cave floor and replacement gypsum crusts on walls – both considered by-products of SAS – are present. Cave gypsum samples exhibit negative sulfur isotopic composition (ranging from-19.4 to-8.2‰) and oxygen (ranging from-9.0 to-1.3‰), which are indicative of sulfide (H2S) oxidation. This article discusses potential scenarios of SAS events in the evolution of hypogene karst in the Mulapampa travertine. It also considers the significance of the proximity of the active volcanoes of the Ampato-Sabancaya Volcanic Complex (ASVC) and seismogenic crustal faults in the formation of a thick travertine cover and the potential for SAS processes. © 2024, Societa Speleologica Italiana.

abstract = {In spontaneously vegetated postindustrial areas, we have limited knowledge of whether the known inhibitory tendencies of herbaceous species—Calamagrostis epigejos and Solidago spp.—vary across successional stages. Our study fills this knowledge gap to assess the inhibitory role of the invasive alien and expansive native species with known behavior from the literature. Specifically, we hypothesized: (i) there will be an inhibitory effect of these species on diversity across successional classes; (ii) the effect of a species will depend on the successional class due to abiotic requirements of plant communities in each successional class. We recorded vascular plant species and their abundance across 400 plots on post-coal mine heaps in Upper Silesia, Poland. We classified spoil heaps into three successional classes (early-stage; mid-stage; late-stage). We calculated plant community taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic diversity and, using generalized linear mixed-effects models, we estimated predictors of diversity indices across successional classes. While we found no limiting effects of these species on diversity indices across successional classes, the effects of a species depended on the successional stage. We found the impacts of Calamagrostis and Solidago cover on diversity indices in the mid-successional stage. This implies that the early-successional stage is controlled by the lottery (random) model of community assembly. However, in the mid-successional stage, the competitive exploitation mechanism is evident, resulting in declines in diversity indices. Thus, the impacts of Calamagrostis and Solidago on diversity indices are evident in the mid-successional stage. © 2024 The Author(s).

abstract = {Recent studies on China’s arid and semi-arid regions, particularly the Tarim River Basin (TRB), have shown an increase in the intensity and frequency of extreme weather events. This research examines the link between meteorological droughts, as measured by the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI), and hydrological droughts, as indicated by the Standardized Runoff Index (SRI) and the Standardized Terrestrial Water Storage Index (STI), over various time scales. Historical data indicate that SPEI drought frequency (DF) was 14.3–21.9%, with prevalent events in the northern oases. SRI DF ranged from 9.0% to 35.8%, concentrated around the Taklamakan and Kumtag Deserts, while STI DF varied between 4.4% and 32.7%, averaging 15% basin-wide. Future projections show an increased DF of SPEI in deserts and a decrease in oases; SRI DF decreased in deserts but increased in oases. STI changes were more moderate. The study also found a higher risk of drought progression from SPEI to SRI in the southwestern and northeastern oases, exceeding 50% probability, while central and eastern TRB had lower risks. The western TRB and inner Taklamakan Desert faced higher risks of SPEI to STI progression, with probabilities over 45%, in contrast to the lower risks in the eastern and central oases. The concurrence of SRI/STI with moderate to extreme SPEI droughts led to a higher probability and area of SRI/STI droughts, whereas consistent SPEI types showed a reduced induced probability and extent of SRI/STI droughts. This study enhances the understanding of drought propagation from meteorological to hydrological droughts in the TRB and contributes to the prevention of hydrological drought to a certain extent. © 2023 by the authors.},

abstract = {The mitochondrial genome of Metazoa is predominantly maternally inherited, providing a valuable genetic marker in various fields such as phylogenetics and phylogeography. However, mitochondrial heteroplasmy, where multiple copies of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) coexist within an individual or even cell, presents a challenge to the use of mtDNA markers. This phenomenon may arise from replication errors, mutagenic processes, or paternal leakage. In this study, we investigated mitochondrial heteroplasmy in the freshwater bug Aphelocheirus aestivalis (Fabricius; 1794) using both Sanger and Illumina sequencing approaches. Our analyses confirmed the presence of diverse mtDNA variants within individual specimens collected from various locations across Europe. Signals of mitochondrial heteroplasmy were observed in chromatograms derived from both female and male individuals, indicating a prevalent phenomenon across A. aestivalis populations in general. Further comparative analyses of COI (partial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I) haplotypes indicated their high similarity and complex phylogenetic relationships. In turn, Illumina sequencing of a single male specimen revealed 102 heteroplasmic sites across the protein-coding sequences of mitogenome. Our results suggest the widespread and heritable nature of mitochondrial heteroplasmy in A. aestivalis, highlighting its importance for future phylogenetic and phylogeographic studies. © The Author(s) 2024.},

abstract = {Assemblages formed by skeletobionts, which encrust and bore into shells of other organ-isms, represent a promising system for tracking changes in intra-and interspecific inter-actions, and primary productivity over evolutionary timescales. However, identification of processes structuring these assemblages across large spatial and temporal scales requires an understanding of potential confounding local factors such as surface area and topography of the skeletal substrates available for colonization, which inevita-bly limit settlement and survival of skeletobionts. Using a large collection of Middle Devonian brachiopods derived from the same facies in the Mader Basin of Morocco, we evaluate the effect of host size and shell ornamentation on the key metrics used to describe skeletobiont assemblages. We found that both skeletobiont abundance and richness tend to increase with the shell surface area, but the correlation is relatively weak and significant only in the two largest taxa, Schizophoria and Glyptogypa. However, the importance of shell ornamentation becomes evident only when the variation in host size is considered: small-sized, but coarsely ribbed taxa, such as Quiringites and Kransia, host the highest skeletobiont densities, suggesting that they were preferred substrate for colonization. Moreover, differences in skeletobiont richness between the hosts disappear when data are standardized to the same surface area. Our results demonstrate that even though surface area alone may be a poor predictor of the number of individuals and taxa found on a given shell, variation in size among the hosts can still confound interpretations of skeletobiont specificity for particular shell morphologies and bias comparisons of skeletobiont assemblages. © 2024 Author(s).},

In the article focusing on the Górnośląsko-Zagłębiowska Metropolis (GZM), utilizing the Urban Atlas database, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and remote sensing tools (Based on Sentinel 2 satellite imagery), an analysis of changes in blue-green infrastructure objects was conducted for the years 2006, 2012, 2018 and 2023. The results indicated a gradual decrease in green areas in favor of dense residential development (mainly in the center of GZM). However, the largest share of GZM areas (especially its outskirts) consists of forests, meadows and pastures. To a small extent, the share of urban greenery has increased in the subsequent years under study. The results showed that the methods used allow for an effective analysis of changes in land cover with blue-green infrastructure and the need to develop it for the purposes of increasing retention and reducing the negative effects of climate change. © 2024 International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference.

abstract = {Prymnesium parvum N. Carter, 1937 (the golden algae) inhabits salty inland environments and significantly impacts the fitness of other water species. These algae produce many cytotoxic metabolites, thus, during their blooms, massive fish kill can be observed. It is so far unknown what triggers the sudden release of toxins from the algal cells. We hypothesise that a sudden decrease of water salinity with an increase of P. parvum to be the major factor contributing to the substantial increase of biologically active substances (i.e. prymnesin; secondary metabolites; enzymes; etc.) due to the massive mortality of the algae cells. At the practical salinity value of 0.68, the increase of osmotic pressure to 360 hPa caused cell bursts after 10 min of exposure. The cell size of P. parvum, especially in the lateral axis, increased significantly, changing the volume of the cells from 234±79 µm3 (1.55) to 534±149 µm3 (0.68). The cell burst followed by the release of the cellular components was noted during particle analysis of cell suspensions in different water salinities. The appearance of enormous amounts of small particles in water derived from suddenly broken cells of the golden algae is probably responsible for the massive death of gill breathing organisms. Thus, P. parvum, as well as other organisms' survival in brackish water, depends on water salinity homeostasis that is recognised to be met above the value of practical salinity equal to 0.88. © 2024},

abstract = {Radon (222Rn) was employed as a tracer of seasonal, diurnal and hourly-scale cave air flow. Niedźwiedzia Górna Cave in the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland, having a well-studied thermal regime representative of similar underground spaces in the temperate climate, was chosen for the research. Relationships between changes in 222Rn activity concentration in cave air and changes in cave microclimate parameters (air temperature) and meteorological parameters (temperature; pressure and wind speed) were compared. Data registered at one-hour intervals throughout a period of 8.5 months (from mid-December 2019 to the end of August 2020) were used. On a seasonal scale, the process of cave air exchange with the atmosphere takes place at the upper level of the cave in the first half of the year (from December to June) and at the bottom level - in the first quarter of the year (January-March). The air exchange is inhibited as the atmospheric air temperature equals the average temperature of the air at the lower level of the cave (+ 8.4 °C) in April and May. At the upper level, it is the atmospheric air temperature higher than the temperature inside the cave (+ 8.5 °C) which stops air exchange in July and August. On a diurnal scale, 222Rn is an effective tracer of air exchange lasting about two weeks in winter (January-February) and as a range from 6 to 9 days in transitional periods in April and May. In an hourly cycle, effective air exchange takes place at daytime and ends at night in warmer parts of the cave and starts at night and continues until noon or the afternoon in colder parts. © The Author(s) 2024.},

abstract = {Introduction: Emerging new races of leaf rust (Puccinia triticina Eriks) are threatening global wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production. Identifying additional resistance genes from all available gene pools is crucial to expanding wheat resistance to these virulent leaf rust races. Siberian wild rye (Elymus sibiricus L.) possesses numerous beneficial traits that can be valuable in wheat improvement. Three new wheat-E. sibiricus addition lines, O27-2 (BC8), O27-3 (BC12) and O193-3 (BC12), were developed through a backcrossing scheme in this study, using leaf rust field evaluations, molecular marker assays and cytogenetic analysis. Methods: These three lines were derived from progeny of the bread wheat cultivar ‘Obriy’ (2n = 6x = 42; AABBDD) and partial octoploid amphiploid wheat-E. sibiricus (2n = 8x = 56; AABBDDStSt). Results and discussion: The lines (O27-2; O27-3 and O193-3) demonstrated strong specific leaf pubescence (hairiness) and resistance at the adult stage to a local population of leaf rust races. The response to leaf rust in these three lines significantly differed from that of the Lr24 gene, providing evidence for a distinct resistance mechanism associated with the 3St chromosome. This study is the first to report the transfer of an E. sibiricus chromosome into wheat that confers leaf rust resistance. Molecular marker analysis and genomic in situ hybridization confirmed that lines O27-2, O27-3 and O193-3 each possess one pair of E. sibiricus 3St chromosomes. The resistance gene was determined to be on the additional alien chromosome in these lines. Molecular markers (Xwmc221; Lr29F18; Sr24/Lr24) confirmed that the lines O27-2, O27-3, and O193-3 each contain a pair of E. sibiricus 3St chromosomes carrying leaf rust resistance genes. These findings demonstrate that the E. sibiricus 3St chromosome carries the leaf rust resistance gene and that the O27-2, O27-3, and O193-3 lines can serve as novel germplasm sources for introducing this resistance into wheat breeding programs. This study contributes to broadening the genetic diversity of resistance genes available for combating leaf rust in wheat.

abstract = {Coal mine spoil heaps are subject to reclamation processes in order to restore their environmental, social and economic functions. The reclamation may consist of placing soil layers (topsoil; TS) on the surface of the bare rock (carboniferous rock accompanying the coal seam) and then planting vegetation. However, waste rock (bare rock; BR) is usually left in place without overburden due to high costs. In both cases, there is a spontaneous succession of consisting vegetation of native and alien species. In this study, we compare the efficiency of seed germination populations of the alien invasive species Solidago gigantea Aiton (Sg) originating from the TS and BR areas of the same spoil heap and the ecophysiological response of plants grown from germinated seeds. The research was carried out under laboratory conditions, measuring the content of pigments in leaves, the efficiency of the photosynthetic apparatus (EPA), plant height and response to environmental stress factors (H2O2; MDA concentration). Significant differences between the two groups were tested using the t-test (p<0.05). The results showed that the seeds from SgBR germinated (GP) more effectively (SgBR-93.5%; SgTS-82.69%) and had a higher germination synchrony index (Z) (SgBR-0.21; SgTS-0.16). However, the seeds from SgTS showed a higher mean germination time (MGT) (SgBR-5.75; SgTS-7.9). There was no statistically significant difference between plants grown from SgBR and SgTS seeds in plant height, content of chlorophyll a, flavonols and anthocyanins. However, plants from SgBR seeds exhibited higher stress tolerance, indicated by higher H2O2 content and better photosynthetic apparatus performance parameters-higher FV/FM, PIabs, PItotal, FV/FO, and lower VJ, VI. Further studies at the genomic level of both populations are recommended to obtain more detailed information on the adaptation mechanisms. © 2024 International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference.

River sediment samples were also analysed using a scanning electron microscope and XRD diffraction of whole rock samples to identify minerals hosting the elements investigated.

abstract = {Phytoplankton is an essential resource in aquatic ecosystems, situated at the base of aquatic food webs. Plastic pollution can impact these organisms, potentially affecting the functioning of aquatic ecosystems. The interaction between plastics and phytoplankton is multifaceted: while microplastics can exert toxic effects on phytoplankton, plastics can also act as a substrate for colonisation. By reviewing the existing literature, this study aims to address pivotal questions concerning the intricate interplay among plastics and phytoplankton/phytobenthos and analyse impacts on fundamental ecosystem processes (e.g. primary production; nutrient cycling). This investigation spans both marine and freshwater ecosystems, examining diverse organisational levels from subcellular processes to entire ecosystems. The diverse chemical composition of plastics, along with their variable properties and role in forming the “plastisphere”, underscores the complexity of their influences on aquatic environments. Morphological changes, alterations in metabolic processes, defence and stress responses, including homoaggregation and extracellular polysaccharide biosynthesis, represent adaptive strategies employed by phytoplankton to cope with plastic-induced stress. Plastics also serve as potential habitats for harmful algae and invasive species, thereby influencing biodiversity and environmental conditions. Processes affected by phytoplankton–plastic interaction can have cascading effects throughout the aquatic food web via altered bottom-up and top-down processes. This review emphasises that our understanding of how these multiple interactions compare in impact on natural processes is far from complete, and uncertainty persists regarding whether they drive significant alterations in ecological variables. A lack of comprehensive investigation poses a risk of overlooking fundamental aspects in addressing the environmental challenges associated with widespread plastic pollution. © 2024 The Author(s).

abstract = {Ferrodimolybdenite with ideal formula FeMo3+2S4 (C2/c; a = 11.8249(8) Å; b = 6.5534(3) Å; c = 13.0052(10) Å; β = 114.474(9)°; V = 917.27(12) Å3; Z = 8) was discovered in a differentiated sulfide nodule composed of troilite and pentlandite parts. The nodule was detected in the central zone of a diopside-anorthite-tridymite oval paralava body, approximately 30 metres in diameter, within the pyrometamorphic Hatrurim Complex in Daba-Siwaqa, Jordan. Ferrodimolybdenite is the first trivalent molybdenum compound discovered in nature. Its synthetic analogue crystallizes in the C1c1 space group. Ferrodimolybdenite with the empirical formula (Fe2+0.99Cu2+0.07Ni2+0.04)Σ1.10 Mo3+1.94(S2-3.98P3-0.02)Σ4.00 was identified in the troilite part of the differentiated sulfide nodule. The nodule contains inclusions of tetrataenite, nickelphosphide, molybdenite, galena and rudashevskyite. Ferrodimolybdenite forms platy crystals with dimensions ranging from 3×100 μm to 20×40 μm. The mineral exhibits a grey colour and a dark grey streak. It is opaque with a metallic lustre, and its Mohs hardness is approximately 3. The cleavage observed in the mineral is perfect on {001}, good on {100} and poor on {010}. Its tenacity is sectile, and its fracture is smooth. The calculated density of 5.445 g·cm-3 was derived from the empirical formula and unit cell volume refined from single crystal XRD data. In reflected light, ferrodimolybdenite appears grey to light grey with a blueish tinge. It is anisotropic, with a reflectance in the range of 34-40%. The crystallization of ferrodimolybdenite occurred in reduced conditions in monosulfide Fe(+Ni) melt at a temperature of 1000-1100oC and at low pressure. © 2024 Cambridge University Press.

abstract = {Sustainable management of available water resources needs robust and reliable intelligent tools to address emerging water challenges. These days, artificial intelligence (AI) based tools are more efficient and prominent in addressing issues related to water treatment plants. Therefore, in the current study, the extreme learning machine (ELM) was optimized with four different metaheuristic algorithms, namely particle swarm optimization (PSO-ELM), genetic algorithm (GA-ELM), biogeography-based optimization (BBO-ELM), and BBO-PSO-ELM for modelling treated water quality parameters, i.e., pHT, Turbidity (TurbT), total dissolved solids (TDST), and HardnessT of Tamburawa water treatment plant (TWTP) located in Nigeria. The performance of the hybrid ELM models was evaluated using mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE), Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE), Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC), and Willmott index (WI) as well as graphically. The obtained numerical and visualized results indicate that the BBO-PSO-ELM model performed superior in modeling pHT (MAE = 0.403; RMSE = 0.514; NSE = 0.863; PCC = 0.935; WI = 0.964), TDST (MAE = 11.818 mg/L; RMSE = 16.058 mg/L; NSE = 0.711; PCC = 0.853; WI = 0.923), and HardnessT (MAE = 2.624 mg/L; RMSE = 3.497 mg/L; NSE = 0.818; PCC = 0.909; WI = 0.947), while BBO-ELM demonstrated superior performance in TurbT (MAE = 0.385 mg/L; RMSE = 0.694 mg/L; NSE = 0.996; PCC = 0.999; WI = 0.999) modelling. Generally, the findings suggested that the proposed hybrid ELM model has the potential to predict the water quality parameters of TWTP in Nigeria effectively. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. 2024.},

abstract = {Tourism is one of the world’s largest industries, generating an estimated 10.4% of global GDP (USD 9.2 trillion), 10.6% of all jobs (334 million), and was responsible for creating 1 in 4 all new jobs across the world. Moreover, international visitor spending amounted to USD 1.7 trillion in 2019 (6.8% of total exports and 27.4% of global services exports). As a result of COVID-19 and the ongoing restrictions to international mobility, the Travel & Tourism sector suffered losses of almost USD 4.5 trillion, with its global contribution to GDP declining by 49.1% compared to 2019 to reach only USD 4.7 trillion in 2020; relative to a 3.7% GDP decline of the global economy. Domestic visitor spending decreased by 45%, whilst international visitor spending fell by an unprecedented 69.4%. In the aftermath of the pandemic, however, consumer appetites for outdoor and less crowded holiday destinations have increased. And thus mountain areas are opening up new opportunities for mountain destinations to rebuild a greener and more sustainable form of tourism and rethink their products and services. For this to happen, the following measures developed and described in this book will take place. In addition, the countries sending tourists are usually countries in the Global North, and when visiting countries in the Global South, they spend their money there. Tourism is, in a way, a fair transfer of funds and thus is a powerful tool that can improve the quality of life of people in developing economies. This chapter provides a critical angle on mountain tourism and its sustainable use to battle poverty and inequality. © 2025 selection and editorial matter, Michal Apollo, Yana Wengel and Thomas Pogge; individual chapters, the contributors.},

abstract = {In this contribution we study the possibility of the formation of cosmic ray ensembles (CRE) created by the interaction of ultra-high energy (UHE) photons with the magnetic field of the Sun. The lack of observation of those UHE and the difficulties for their identification given the current methodologies motivates this study. We performed simulations using the PRESHOWER program in order to simulate the expected extensive air showers which might be spatially correlated generated upon entering the Earth’s atmosphere. We found characteristic features like very thing and extremely elongates cascades of secondary photons with their corresponding energies spanning the entire cosmic range spectrum. Shower footprints are as large as hundreds of kilometres. An application of this study is the scenario of gamma-ray emission from the vicinity of the Sun as a result of ultra-high energy photon cascading in the solar magnetic field in order to understand recent observations made by the HAWC and Fermi-LAT observatories. © Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons.},

abstract = {The use of nanoparticles in the industry carries the risk of their release into the environment. Based on the presumption that the primary graphene oxide (GO) toxicity mechanism is reactive oxygen species production in the cell, the question arises as to whether well-known antioxidants can protect the cell or significantly reduce the effects of GO. This study focused on the possible remedial effect of vitamin C in Acheta domesticus intoxicated with GO for whole lives. The reproduction potential was measured at the level of Vitellogenin (Vg) gene expression, Vg protein expression, hatching success, and share of nutrition in the developing egg. There was no simple relationship between the Vg gene’s expression and the Vg protein content. Despite fewer eggs laid in the vitamin C groups, hatching success was high, and egg composition did not differ significantly. The exceptions were GO20 and GO20 + Vit. C groups, with a shift in the lipid content in the egg. Most likely, ascorbic acid impacts the level of Vg gene expression but does not affect the production of Vg protein or the quality of eggs laid. Low GO concentration in food did not cause adverse effects, but the relationship between GO toxicity and its concentration should be investigated more thoroughly. © 2024 by the authors.},

abstract = {Fungi are one of the most diverse groups of organisms with an estimated number of species in the range of 2–3 million. The higher-level ranking of fungi has been discussed in the framework of molecular phylogenetics since Hibbett et al., and the definition and the higher ranks (e.g.; phyla) of the ‘true fungi’ have been revised in several subsequent publications. Rapid accumulation of novel genomic data and the advancements in phylogenetics now facilitate a robust and precise foundation for the higher-level classification within the kingdom. This study provides an updated classification of the kingdom Fungi, drawing upon a comprehensive phylogenomic analysis of Holomycota, with which we outline well-supported nodes of the fungal tree and explore more contentious groupings. We accept 19 phyla of Fungi, viz. Aphelidiomycota, Ascomycota, Basidiobolomycota, Basidiomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Calcarisporiellomycota, Chytridiomycota, Entomophthoromycota, Entorrhizomycota, Glomeromycota, Kickxellomycota, Monoblepharomycota, Mortierellomycota, Mucoromycota, Neocallimastigomycota, Olpidiomycota, Rozellomycota, Sanchytriomycota, and Zoopagomycota. In the phylogenies, Caulochytriomycota resides in Chytridiomycota; thus, the former is regarded as a synonym of the latter, while Caulochytriomycetes is viewed as a class in Chytridiomycota. We provide a description of each phylum followed by its classes. A new subphylum, Sanchytriomycotina Karpov is introduced as the only subphylum in Sanchytriomycota. The subclass Pneumocystomycetidae Kirk et al. in Pneumocystomycetes, Ascomycota is invalid and thus validated. Placements of fossil fungi in phyla and classes are also discussed, providing examples. © The Author(s) 2024.

abstract = {We over view selected artificial intelligence methods used in research on water systems, specifically artificial neural networks (ANN), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS), genetic programming (GP) and support vector machine (SVM) methods. Each method is characterized and the most effective ways of using these methods are discussed. These methods prove widely useful in forecasting changes in selected surface and ground water quality parameters, forecasting sewage network failures, assessing water treatment options, climate monitoring, drought detection and environmental issues for farmers and producers. Published studies show that artificial intelligence methods should be used in the analysis of water systems, especially since artificial intelligence now appears in search results for over 60,000 environmental articles. © 2024, Polish Geological Institute.
