PATHOGENS CO-TRANSPORTED WITH INVASIVE NON-NATIVE AQUATIC SPECIES: IMPLICATIONS FOR RISK ANALYSIS AND LEGISLATION

Pathogens co-transported with invasive non-native aquatic species: implications for risk analysis and legislation

Invasive Non-Native Species (INNS) can co-transport externally and internally other organisms including viruses, bacteria and other eukaryotes (including metazoan parasites), collectively referred to as the symbiome.These symbiotic organisms include pathogens, a small minority of which are subject to surveillance and regulatory control, but most of

A New Algorithm for Detecting X-Ray Shots in Cyg X-1

The short-term X-ray variability of Cyg X-1 can be interpreted as a random occurrence of mini-flares known as the shots, whose physical nature is still unclear.We propose a new algorithm for shot identification in the X-ray light curve, based on baseline detection and template fitting.Compared with previous techniques, our algorithm allows us to de

Why You Cannot Rank First: Modifications for Benchmarking Six-Degree-of-Freedom Visual Localization Algorithms

Robust and precise visual localization over extended periods of time poses a formidable challenge in the current domain of spatial vision.The primary difficulty lies in effectively addressing significant variations in appearance caused by seasonal changes (summer, winter, spring, autumn) and diverse lighting conditions (dawn, day, sunset, night).Wi
