The triadic relationship between spinal posture, loading, and degeneration
(2025)Frontiers in Bioengineering and BiotechnologyIntroduction Degenerative changes in the lumbar spine may affect many structures, among them the intervertebral discs and the facet joints. The individual load distribution within the spine linked to posture and mass distribution is a probable cause of disease. This study had a dual aim: first, to systematically summarize previously reported associations between sagittal balance parameters and the occurrence of lumbar spine degeneration. ...Journal Article -
Anatomy of a foreseeable disaster: Lessons from the 2023 dam-breaching flood in Derna, Libya
(2025)Science AdvancesWas the catastrophic flooding in Derna, Libya-one of the deadliest hydrometeorological disasters on record-an inevitable outcome of rare weather conditions, or did the design of the infrastructure fail to account for probable risks? On 10 to 11 September 2023, Storm Daniel, a Mediterranean tropical-like cyclone, caused heavy rainfall that led to the collapse of two dams and more than 5000 casualties in Derna. Using a combination of ...Journal Article -
Water depletion and <sup>15</sup>NH<inf>3</inf>in the atmosphere of the coldest brown dwarf observed with JWST/MIRI
(2025)Astronomy & AstrophysicsContext. With a temperature of ∼285 K, WISEJ0855-0714 (hereafter, WISE 0855) is the coldest brown dwarf observed thus far. Studying such cold gas giants allows us to probe the atmospheric physics and chemistry of evolved objects that resemble Solar System gas giants. Aims. Using James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), we obtained observations to characterize WISE 0855's atmosphere, focusing on vertical variation in the water steam abundance, ...Journal Article -
Acute Effects of Passive Stretching with and Without Vibration on Hip Range of Motion, Temperature, and Stiffness Parameters in Male Elite Athletes
(2025)JOURNAL OF FUNCTIONAL MORPHOLOGY AND KINESIOLOGYObjectives: Increasing exercise intensity and performance output with superimposed vibration gains interest, especially in high-performance training. However, the additional benefit of vibration in passive stretching exercises and its mechanisms remain unclarified. Methods: Passive stretching with (ST+V) and without (ST) vibration (20 Hz) was performed in male Olympic youth skiing athletes (n = 8, age: 17.9 +/- 1.0 years) using a ...Journal Article -
Trees slow down erosion and allow soil progression in an extremely high-rainfall old-growth mixed dipterocarp forest of southwest Sri Lanka
(2025)CatenaRecent studies have revealed that trees can significantly drive soil evolution and hillslope processes in some temperate forests through mechanical soil disturbances such as tree uprootings. Such tree-soil interactions have resulted in improved biogeomorphic state transition models for old-growth forests. However, the situation in humid tropical forests, with extreme precipitation and different soil-forming processes, is less explored. ...Journal Article
