Cryptic species and hybridisation in corals: challenges and opportunities for conservation and restoration by Riginos, Cynthia, Popovic, Iva, Meziere, Zoe, Garcia, Vhon, Byrne, Ilha, Howitt, Samantha M., Ishida, Hisatake, Bairos-Novak, Kevin, Humanes, Adriana, Scharfenstein, Hugo, Richards, Thomas, Briggs, Ethan, Clark, Vanessa, Lei, Chuan, Khan, Mariam, Prata, Katharine E.

“…Here, we investigate the prevalence of cryptic coral groups and assess evidence for their permeability to gene flow (hybridisation) via a structured literature review of genomic studies. Using reproducible criteria to detect distinct genetic groups that are sympatric, we find that 68% of nominal species represented in population genomic studies show evidence for comprising partially reproductively isolated groups and that these distinct groups are often linked by gene flow. …”

Designing a glass nanoshell on barium titanium trioxide to suppress nanocrystal growth during sintering for fine-grain dielectric ceramics by Jia Yu, Qi Jiang, Qingchao Jia, Liangzhu Zhang, Wenchun Chiu, Huidan Zeng

“…It is found that the BaTiO3 nanocrystal with average lateral particle size of 70 nm and 200 nm (BT70 and BT200) can be coated with Bi2O3-B2O3-SiO2 (BBS) glass shell to form core-shell structures. The fine crystal of barium titanate ceramics can be achieved under different encapsulation quantities and sintering temperature. …”

“…Hyperspectral anomaly detection (HAD) approaches with tensor low-rank representation (TLRR) have shown engaging performance, which are capable of capturing abundant spectral and spatial information and, hence, extracting sparse anomalies from the low-rank background without ruining the intrinsic geometric structures of tensor data. However, existing HAD approaches construct the low-rank representation by a handcrafted dictionary that still contains the anomalies, resulting in an inferior representation. …”
