AN ALLOZYME POLYMORPHISM IS ASSOCIATED WITH A LARGE CHROMOSOMAL INVERSION IN THE MARINE SNAIL LITTORINA FABALIS

An allozyme polymorphism is associated with a large chromosomal inversion in the marine snail Littorina fabalis

Abstract Understanding the genetic targets of natural selection is one of the most challenging goals of population genetics.Some of the earliest candidate genes were identified from associations between allozyme allele frequencies and environmental variation.One such example is the clinal polymorphism in the arginine kinase (Ak) gene in the marine

Long-Term Probabilistic Volcanic Hazard Assessment Using Open and Non-open Data: Observations and Current Issues

Probabilistic volcanic hazard assessment (PVHA) has become the paradigm to quantify volcanic hazard over the last decades.Substantial aleatory and epistemic uncertainties in PVHA arise SUN E-400 from complexity of physico-chemical processes, impossibility of their direct observation and, importantly, a severe scarcity of observables from past erupt
