A neurotropic herpesvirus infecting the gastropod, abalone, shares ancestry with oyster herpesvirus and a herpesvirus associated with the amphioxus genome

Abstract Background With the exception of the oyster herpesvirus OsHV-1, all herpesviruses characterized thus far infect only vertebrates.Some cause neurological disease in their hosts, while others replicate or become latent in neurological tissues.Recently a new herpesvirus causing ganglioneuritis in abalone, a gastropod, was discovered.Molecular

Amundsen Sea Embayment ice-sheet mass-loss predictions to 2050 calibrated using observations of velocity and elevation change

Mass loss from the Amundsen Sea Embayment of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet is a major contributor to global sea-level rise (SLR) and has been increasing over recent decades.Predictions of future SLR are increasingly modelled using ensembles of simulations within which Cleaners model parameters and external forcings are varied within credible ranges.
