Unexpected ‘dark’ oxygen production detected 13,000 feet below the ocean surface, This may unveil…

Scientists have discovered ‘dark’ oxygen being produced at more than 13,000 feet below the ocean surface, challenging long-held assumptions about deep-sea ecosystems. In 2013, ocean scientist Andrew Sweetman observed a puzzling phenomenon while on a vessel in a remote part of the Pacific Ocean. His equipment showed that oxygen was being produced on the seabed, …

Global surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in food animals using priority drugs maps

This analysis is structured in five steps (Fig. 5a–e): (a) collection and extraction of epidemiological information from point prevalence surveys (PPS); (b) mapping distribution of resistance prevalence using three machine learning models; (c) ensembling predictions using Gaussian process stacked generalization; (d) mapping priority antimicrobials for surveillance; and (e) estimating prediction uncertainty of maps generated in steps …
