Insect Bioacoustics: Mosquitoes Make an Effort to Listen to Each Other
As they encounter each other in flight, male and female mosquitoes alter their wing beat to bring their flight tones closer together. Two recent studies provide new insights into the complex auditory processing required for this behaviour.
متن کاملMaking an Effort to Listen: Mechanical Amplification in the Ear
The inner ear's performance is greatly enhanced by an active process defined by four features: amplification, frequency selectivity, compressive nonlinearity, and spontaneous otoacoustic emission. These characteristics emerge naturally if the mechanoelectrical transduction process operates near a dynamical instability, the Hopf bifurcation, whose mathematical properties account for specific asp...
متن کاملHow to make N2 listen to you in steel making!
All steels contain some amount of dissolved gases such as oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen of which nitrogen is effective in improving the mechanical and corrosion properties of stainless steels if it remains in solid solution or precipitates as very fine and coherent nitrides or carbo-nitrides with iron or alloying elements. When nitrogen is added to austenitic steels it can simultaneously improv...
متن کاملAn encyclopedic effort to make 3D structures easier to understand.
For the first time in the short history of electronic publication, rotatable and zoomable 3D structures of biomolecules were integrated within the PDF file of the recent TiBS paper ‘Grasping molecular structures through publication-integrated 3D models’ by Kumar and Ziegler et al. [1]. This represents a major step forward in effective and simple communication of complex 3D data, one which has a...
متن کاملAn effort to make sense of antisense transcription in bacteria
Analysis of bacterial transcriptomes have shown the existence of a genome-wide process of overlapping transcription due to the presence of antisense RNAs, as well as mRNAs that overlapped in their entire length or in some portion of the 5'- and 3'-UTR regions. The biological advantages of such overlapping transcription are unclear but may play important regulatory roles at the level of transcri...
