Shear-induced Permeability Evolution of Sandstone Fractures by Hongwei Zhang, Zhijun Wan, Zijun Feng, Jinwen Wu

“…The results allow several important conclusions to be drawn. (1) The permeability of fractures follows a three-stage shear-displacement-dependent evolution. The permeability remains unchanged in the first stable stage. …”

Microbes as manipulators of egg size and developmental evolution by Matthew C. Kustra, Tyler J. Carrier

“…Evolutionary transitions between these developmental modes have been studied in detail, yet the evolutionary factor(s) responsible for these switches remains elusive. Here, we use theoretical models to support the premise that microbes with the capacity to manipulate host reproduction may be one possible factor. …”

In-situ observations of the magnetothermodynamic evolution of electron-only reconnection by D. S. Payne, M. Swisdak, J. P. Eastwood, J. F. Drake, P. S. Pyakurel, J. R. Shuster

“…Abstract Field-particle energy exchange is important to the magnetic reconnection process, but uncertainties regarding the time evolution of this exchange remain. We investigate the temporal dynamics of field-particle energy exchange during magnetic reconnection, using Magnetospheric Multiscale mission observations of an electron-only reconnection event in the magnetosheath. …”
