Extender Supplementation with Glutathione (GSH) and Taurine Improves In Vitro Sperm Quality and Antioxidant Status of New Zealand Rabbits during Chilled Storage for up to 72 hours by Mohamed F. F. Bayomy, Sobhy E. Hassab El-Nabi, Tahany A. El Kassas, Zeinab I. Attia, Ayman M. Saeed, Heba S. A. Taha, Mahmoud Alagawany, Livio Galosi, Lucia Biagini, Seham El-Kassas

“…This study assessed the influence of supplementing the rabbit semen extender with various concentrations of glutathione (GSH) and taurine at 24, 48, and 72 h postchilling at 5°C. Semen samples were collected from 20 New Zealand bucks, and ejaculates with standard color, motility (>85%), about 0.5 mL volume, and ∼400 × 106/mL concentration were used and diluted with extenders supplemented with 0.5, 1, and 2 mM of GSH and 1, 5, and 10 mM of taurine and chilled at 5°C. …”

Assessing Urban Landscape Variables’ Contributions to Microclimates by Tammy E. Parece, Jie Li, James B. Campbell, David Carroll

“…Evaluating intraurban microclimate variability presents an opportunity to assess spatial dimensions of urban environments and identify locations that heat or cool faster than other locales. Our study employs mobile weather units and fixed weather stations to collect air temperatures across Roanoke, Virginia, USA, on selected dates over a two-year interval. …”

Observations of Loki Patera by Juno during Close Flybys by Alessandro Mura, Rosaly M. C. Lopes, Federico Tosi, Francesca Zambon, Roberto Sordini, Peter J. Mouginis-Mark, Julie Rathbun, Scott Bolton, Jani Radebaugh, Alberto Adriani, Andrea Cicchetti, Davide Grassi, Melissa Mirino, Raffaella Noschese, Giuseppe Piccioni, Christina Plainaki, Giuseppe Sindoni

“…A thermal propagation that may represent the signature of a resurfacing wave, going from the southwest of the lake to the north, was observed with a velocity of ∼2–3 km day ^−1 . Data collected in 2024 may indicate the onset of a new resurfacing wave originating from a point source, rather than the foundering of a linear section of the crust. …”
