Summary: The nature of Yellowstone National Park's plumbing system linking deep thermal fluids to its thermal features is not well understood. Our study provides a detailed view of the pathways of the Yellowstone hydrothermal system using geophysical data. We found that the majority of thermal features are located above high-flux conduits along buried faults capped with clay. Shallow pathways feed groundwater into basins, where it mixes with thermal fluids from vertical conduits. These mixed fluids then emerge at the surface and flow outwards along deeper layers, resulting in the observed geochemical signatures.

Summary: Water quality of Lake Okeechobee is influenced by both external and internal factors. External factors include air temperature, total phosphorus concentration, and outflow discharge, while internal factors are mainly related to algal processes. Wind speed plays a significant role in driving the internal hydrodynamic processes and affects algal biomass more than external loadings.

Summary: Understanding the magmatic plumbing system of rift volcanoes is important for examining the interaction between magma and tectonic forces. Using high-resolution tomographic imaging, this study reveals the presence of fluid-filled fracture networks and their association with carbonatite volcanism. The study also highlights the connection between volcanoes and rift segments through a central sill complex and a connected plumbing system.

Summary: The dynamics of peroxide in different plastid types were studied using the pH-insensitive probe HyPer7 and the glutathione redox potential probe. Heterogeneities in peroxide accumulation and redox buffering within distinct epidermal plastids in response to excess light and hormone application were observed. These findings highlight the variation in photosynthetic plastid redox dynamics and emphasize the importance of cell-type-specific observations in future plastid phenotyping.

Summary: The study found that high biomass of harmful algal blooms (HABs) promotes sulfate reduction into labile sulfur, with iron-reducing bacteria being the dominant species; concentrations of labile iron greatly exceed labile sulfur, indicating microbial iron reduction is the principal pathway. In high algal biomass areas, Fe-P is the primary factor influencing phosphorus migration and transformation.

Summary: This study analyzed the impact of lake warming on the internal nutrient cycling in eutrophic lakes using data from Lake Chaohu in China. It found that internal nutrient loading plays a key role in the seasonal variations of nutrient concentrations in the lake, and predicted that lake warming could lead to stronger seasonal fluctuations of internal loading, creating conditions for longer cyanobacteria blooms. These findings can help improve mitigation strategies for eutrophic lake restoration.

Summary: This study examines the impact of plumbing efficiency improvements and nudging programs on urban water security. The findings suggest that plumbing improvements can lead to a 3.5% decrease in residential water consumption over a decade, while nudging programs do not show significant effects. Plumbing improvements have long-lasting effects on water conservation and can enhance the efficacy of other conservation policies.

Summary: The 2021 volcanic eruption at La Palma, Canary Islands, was the largest in the island's history. A study using seismological methods found a long preparatory phase with the destabilization of an intermediate reservoir and a co-eruptive phase with seismic activity controlled by the drainage and interaction of two reservoirs.

Summary: The investigation of fissure eruptions and their deposits on Mars has provided insights into the evolution and dynamics of the volcanic plumbing system. The research shows that there has been a temporal and spatial evolution in the volcanic activity on Mars, indicating a long-lived and chemically differentiated volcanic plumbing system.

Summary: The application of microalgae in wastewater treatment is an emerging technology that follows a circular economy approach. This study investigates the optimization of the process by uncoupling hydraulic retention time and solid retention time, and utilizing the Droop model to predict nutrient content in biomass. The findings suggest that the nutrient removal and biomass productivity can be improved by decoupling these parameters, allowing for more efficient wastewater treatment.

Summary: The balance between chloroplasts and mitochondria is crucial for energy metabolism in plant cells. Overexpression of AtPAP2 can coordinate the activities of these organelles to promote plant growth, but excessive expression in either chloroplasts or mitochondria may have negative effects on plant productivity.

Summary: This paper provides a detailed investigation of sediment internal P loading in Lake Taihu and its role in algal dominated zones (ADZs) and grass dominated zones (GDZs). The results show that ADZ sediments have higher levels of total P and mobile P fraction compared to GDZ sediments. The study also identifies ADZ as a hotspot for P, with high concentrations of DGT-measured P. Sediment microbial composition is found to be closely related to different P fractions in the sediment. The findings highlight the importance of considering the sediment composition and different management strategies for combating internal P loading in ADZ and GDZ.

Summary: A new method utilizing light-induced [4+4] photocycloaddition was described to form bent tubular structures using cyclic peptide nanotubes. The designed nanotubes are composed of beta- and alpha-amino acids, with the structural changes induced by interdigitated arrangement and homogeneous distribution of anthracene pendants resulting in geometrical modifications in the nanotubes packing.
