Three-dimensional circulation controls on pollutant retention and mucilage accumulation in the sea of Marmara: A Lagrangian perspective

The Sea of Marmara is undergoing a severe marine pollution crisis driven by chronic nutrient enrichment and recurrent mucilage outbreaks. The physical mechanisms controlling transport, accumulation and persistence of pollutants and organic matter remain insufficiently resolved. H...

Development of an Explainable GeoAI Wildfire Risk Analysis Model Using Multi-Source Geospatial Data

Accounting for approximately 31% of the global land surface, forests play a critical and indispensable role in sustaining ecological balance. Among the various pressures affecting forests, forest fires constitute a major environmental problem, posing significant threats to natura...

Metrology-Guided High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Reveals Spatially Confined Thermal Effects in Colorectal Cancer Cell Lines

Objective: Accurate assessment of biological effects in high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) research is often limited by the lack of standardized calibration protocols for in vitro applications. This study established a metrology-guided calibration framework to evaluate the...

Implant prosthetic emergence angle and its association with peri-implant health and disease

Dental implants can be affected by peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis. Plaque control and appropriate prosthetic design may help maintain peri-implant health. Excessively large emergence angles (EA) may increase the association with peri-implantitis, depending on the imp...

Comparative experimental and numerical investigation of engine-lubricant performance in hydrogen- and gasoline-fueled PFI SI engines

Hydrogen-fueled spark-ignition (SI) engines offer wide flammability limits, fast flame propagation, and carbon-free exhaust products, making them a promising route toward low-carbon transportation. However, their fast heat-release rates and elevated in-cylinder temperatures pose...
