Since February 2019, NASA's InSight lander is recording seismic signals on the planet Mars, which, for first time, allows to observe ongoing tectonic processes with geophysical methods. A number of Marsquakes have been located in Cerberus Fossae graben system Elysium Planitia and further west, Orcus Patera depression. We present a study focal mechanisms three well-recorded events (S0173a, S0183...

prosite database contains a set of entries corresponding to protein families, which are used to identify the family of a protein from its sequence. although patterns and profiles are developed to be very selective, each may have false positive or negative hits. considering false positives as items that reduce the selectiveness of a pattern, then, the more selective pattern we have, a more accur...

ABSTRACT National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy, Heat Transport (InSight) mission on Mars continues to record seismic data over 3 yr after landing, a thousand marsquakes have been identified, date. With only single station, the determination of epicentral location is far more challenging than Earth. The Marsquake Service (MQS) ...

We use a large data set of 3D thermal evolution models to predict the distribution present-day seismic velocities in Martian interior. Our show difference between maximum and minimum S wave velocity up 10% either below crust, where variations are largest, or at depth olivine wadsleyite phase transition, located around 1,000–1,200 km depth. Models with thick lithospheres on average have weak low...

Hugh Lafollette’s theoretical justification of parental licensing hinges upon consideration of the harms associated with raising children. If we understand Lafollette’s stance as one in which the moral status of children is equal to that of other human beings, we must consider what such a commitment might require of social institutions such as the family. Unlike other licensing programs, I argu...
