Replication Data for: Relative Sea-Level Rise Along the U.S. Gulf Coast: Annual Budget, Dynamics, and Variability
The Gulf Coast, with major ports and industries, faces challenges from rising sea levels, hurricanes, and land subsidence. We used advanced statistical methods to analyze factors like ocean warming, Loop Current circulation, ice-sheet melt, and local land motion driving sea-level changes from 2003 to 2021. Unlike linear approaches, our method captures abrupt accelerations and slowdowns, reflecting short-term variability in each driver’s contribution. Water levels near Florida and the central Gulf are rising faster than in west Texas due to stronger ocean warming and circulation changes. Land subsidence is a critical issue in parts of Louisiana and Texas. Annually examining these drivers shows their combined effect often deviates from a simple sum, sometimes amplifying or canceling each other. Coastal altimetry data reveal nearshore sea-level rises around twice as large as open-ocean measurements, crucial for local agencies and planners preparing for hazards like storm-surge flooding and coastal erosion. Our findings highlight the value of precise coastal observations and time-varying statistical models to guide resilience efforts in the Gulf Coast region
Indole profiles define disease-specific virulence in Fusobacterium nucleatum clinical isolates
This study investigates the metabolic and virulence characteristics of Fusobacterium nucleatum clinical isolates collected from colorectal cancer (CRC), Crohn’s disease, healthy individuals, and oral lesion. Focusing on the microbial metabolite indole and its derivatives—produced via tryptophan metabolism—the research demonstrates that CRC-associated F. nucleatum isolates produce significantly higher levels of indole. These isolates also exhibit distinct biofilm formation capacities and altered expression of virulence genes (e.g., fap2, fadA, aid1, radD) in response to indole exposure. Using machine learning classification based on gene expression profiles, the study shows that indole responsiveness can predict disease origin of isolates. The findings suggest that indole metabolism represents a niche-specific adaptation in CRC-associated F. nucleatum, with implications for understanding microbial contributions to cancer pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targeting

Latin American Press Review, Program 1974-12, 1974 March 7
Part I: The Latin American Press Review delved into several key events this week across Latin America. It covered the OAS meeting of foreign ministers in Mexico City, where Latin American nations asserted their independence from US influence. Additionally, it discussed a right-wing rebellion in Córdoba, Argentina, and the controversial appointment of John Hill as US Ambassador to Argentina, which drew criticism for his alleged CIA ties and involvement in past military coups. The report also highlighted press censorship in Uruguay, exemplified by the closure of the newspaper Marcha and the arrest of its editor. These stories were sourced from a variety of outlets, including Prensa Latina, La Opinión, and The New York Times. Part II: The Latin American Press Review provided comprehensive coverage of international reactions to the military Junta in Chile following its seizure of power in 1973. Countries like Mexico and Argentina expressed opposition through measures such as withdrawing ambassadors and protesting human rights abuses. Cuba froze Chilean assets in response to attempts to access funds deposited by the previous government. The Netherlands' Prime Minister criticized the Junta and offered support to Chilean resistance. Mrs. Hortensia Allende, widow of Salvador Allende, delivered a poignant address to the United Nations Human Rights Commission, condemning the Junta's violations of human rights. She highlighted various abuses, including summary executions, torture, and the suppression of liberties. Allende emphasized the dire situation in Chile under the military dictatorship, including the oppression faced by women, arbitrary arrests, censorship, and erosion of workers' rights. Her speech underscored the global attention drawn to the plight of Chileans suffering under the Junta's rule. Files include CSVs of the annotated transcriptions and lists of places, people, organizations, subjects, and media sources mentioned in the radio program
