THE ANALYSIS OF THE STRAIN STATE OF SHEAR ZONES IN TERMS OF  TYPES OF SECONDARY FRACTURES: STATEMENT OF PROBLEM by Fyodor L. Yakovlev

“…It is assumed that variations of widths of zones of influence of faults, that are observed in natural structure, and changes of amplitudes of displacement in seismogenic faults (Figure 8) are related to this phenomenon of alternation of domains wherein shear cracks of R and R′ types are developing, i.e. there is a relation to elongation and shortening of such domains of a fault zone. …”

Fine‐Scale Geographic Variation of Cladocopium in Acropora hyacinthus Across the Palauan Archipelago by Katrina C. Armstrong, Marilla Lippert, Erik Hanson, Victor Nestor, Brendan Cornwell, Nia S. Walker, Yimnang Golbuu, Stephen R. Palumbi

“…Here, we mapped short reads from 271 holobiont genome libraries of individual Acropora hyacinthus colonies to protein coding genes from the chloroplast genome to identify patterns of symbiont population genetic structure. Utilizing this low‐pass method, we assayed over 13,000 bases from every individual, enabling us to discern genetic variation at a finer geographic scale than previously reported at the population level. …”
