Identifying cryptic species is pivotal for understanding marine biodiversity and optimizing strategies for its conservation.A robust understanding of poriferan diversity is a complex endeavour.It has also been extremely hampered by the high phenotypic plasticity and the limited number of diagnostic characters.Mycale (Carmia) cecilia has different b
Legendary islands or phantom islands: in the search of mythical lands in old folk tales, on historical maps and in weather phenomena on open sea
What is the meaning of legendary or phantom islands? A phantom island is Degreaser a purposed island which was included on maps for a period of time, but was later found not to exist.Most of these phantom islands appeared on maps from the 1200s until the early 1800s.Some of islands did not disappear on maps until our time.But is an island simply fa
Exploring the preparedness of hospital pharmacists practising in Southwest London for implementing pharmacogenomics testing
Introduction Pharmacogenomics (PG), the study of how genetic variations impact individual responses to drugs, has seen significant advancements globally in recent years.Hospital pharmacists play a crucial role in multi-disciplinary teams and understanding their preparedness to deliver PG services is essential for successful integration into Joggers
A novel hybrid IWO and CS algorithm for phase-only pattern synthesis of large array antenna
In this paper, a novel hybrid Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) and Cuckoo Search (CS) algorithm (IWO/CS) is presented for phase-only pattern synthesis of large array antenna.The hybrid IWO/CS algorithm embeds Toners the Levy flight of CS algorithm into IWO algorithm as a global guide, thereby enhancing the global search ability of the algorithm.At
