Coastal sediments are the main deposition center for allochthonous and autochthonous organic carbon (OC). The discharge of terrestrial biomass, anthropogenic activities, oceanic primary productivity, and natural events contribute to this carbon pool. The OC buried in sediments undergoes alteration through physical, biological and chemical processes, becom ...

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is intricately linked with SARS-CoV-2-associated disease severity and mortality, especially in patients with co-morbidities. Lung tissue injury caused as a consequence of ARDS leads to fluid build-up in the alveolar sacs, which in turn affects oxygen supply from the capillaries. ARDS is a result of a hyperinflamm ...

Under high cognitive demands, older adults tend to resort to simpler, habitual, or model-free decision strategies. This age-related shift in decision behavior has been attributed to deficits in the representation of the cognitive maps, or state spaces, necessary for more complex model-based decision-making. Yet, the neural mechanisms behind this shift rem ...
