Spatio-Temporal Variability of Anthropogenic and Natural Wrack Accumulations along the Driftline: Marine Litter Overcomes Wrack in the Northern Sandy Beaches of Portugal

Marine litter can end up deposited on sandy beaches and become entangled in the natural wrack, threatening its roles in ecosystems.However, it is currently unknown whether the storage of both artificial and natural accumulations on sandy beaches is correlated.Here, we quantified and compared, by first time, the litter and natural wrack on five sand

Meta-Research: Understudied genes are lost in a leaky pipeline between genome-wide assays and reporting of results

Present-day publications on human genes primarily feature genes that already appeared in many publications prior to completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003.These patterns persist despite the subsequent adoption of high-throughput technologies, which routinely identify novel genes associated with biological processes and disease.Although seve

Performance Evaluation of Multipath TCP Scheduling Algorithms

One of the goals of 5G is to provide enhanced mobile broadband and enable low latency in some use cases.To achieve this aim, the Internet Engineering Task Force has proposed the Multipath TCP by utilizing the feature of dual connectivity in 5G, where a 5G device can be served by two different base stations.However, the path heterogeneity between th
