Late Quaternary evolution of the southern Brazilian Atlantic coast by Ciro Cerrone (14964274)

“…In particular, the Last Interglacial (LIG; Marine Isotope Stage 5e, ~ 125 ka) is considered a process analogue for understanding the current interglacial because during the LIG higher temperatures than the pre-industrial era led to an increase in the global sea level and decrease in ice sheets volume. …”

Early-Life Hepatitis E Infection in Pigs: The Importance of Maternally-Derived Antibodies by Mathieu Andraud (300301)

“…The impact of PI on hepatitis E virus transmission in piglets was investigated using longitudinal serological data from six pig farms. A strong impact of PI was highlighted, the efficiency of transmission being on average 13 times lower in piglets with maternally-derived antibodies than in fully susceptible animals (range: 5–21). …”
