Molecular characterization of feline caliciviruses isolated from several adult cats with atypical infection showing severe flu-like symptoms on a remote island in Ehime, Japan by Yuki Nishisaka, Hikaru Fujii, Fumiko Ono, Sho Kadekaru, Hiroyuki Kogiku, Yumi Une, Shione Takeguchi, Naomi Ohta, Masumi Eto, Chiharu Takeuchi, Seigou Takeuchi, Tetsuko Miki, Akihiko Tokuda, Keiko Ookawa, Yukinobu Tohya, Keita Ishijima, Akiko Okutani, Ken Maeda, Shumpei Watanabe, Shigeru Morikawa

“…The Aoshima strains isolated in the initial outbreak before December 5, 2020, and those isolated after the end of the outbreak, which are suspected pathogenic and typical non-pathogenic strains, respectively, were located in the same cluster and shown to be very similar in sequence. The virulent Aoshima strain, which causes atypical FCV infections in cats, may have been derived by acquiring several mutations from a typical strain that chronically infects cats on a remote island.…”

Multiscale modeling of reservoir systems using geostatistical methods by Chihi, Hayet, Hammami, Mohamed Amin, Mezni, Imen, Belayouni, Habib, Ben Mammou, Abdallah

“…This provides a detailed input for the geostatistical modeling procedures that enabled to precisely capture the varying extent and shape of the hydrogeological units at regional scale.Geophysical data, available along the Jeffara plain, were added as a complement to the Jeffara geodatabase and used to establish the fault network and to build a local architectural model of the coastal aquifer system, based on time-to-depth conversion using kriging with external drift.The results have allowed (i) a major update of the geological configuration of the Jeffara basin, (ii) more precision on the geometries and extent of the stratigraphic sequences and (iii) an accurate prediction of the main characteristics of water reservoirs, i.e. their occurrence, thickness, facies and dynamic properties variation at the basin and reservoir scale. …”
