    Abstract Studies of the annual pollen and spore deposition in different areas of the Lena Delta were undertaken for the first time in the Asian sector of the Arctic during the Russian-German "LENA 98" and "LENA 99" expeditions in the framework of the International "Laptev Sea System-2000" Project. To achieve this objective, three spore-pollen traps were set up along the meridional delta profile in accordance with the European Pollen Monitoring Programme for the period July 1998 to August 1999. A comparison between the results of spore-pollen analysis of the contents of traps and the surrounding vegetation was performed. The results confirmed the current spore-pollen spectra are comprised both of pollen and spores of the local plants and of long-distance pollen and spores. The dependence of the long-distance pollen deposition on the character of the wind regime of the region was established. The prevailing southerly and southeasterly wind direction determines the main pollen influx of tree species from the areas of their growth south of the delta. The features of the morphological structure and fossilization of pollen and the features of the productive capability and plant growing conditions are of large significance in the pollen transfer and deposition.

    Abstract In the period of summer flood 2016, a number of chemical characteristics associated with carbon cycle were studied in the estuaries of the Syran and Ul’ban rivers in the area of the Shantarskii Archipelago with the total water discharge of 194.7 m³/s. The zone of mixing at the salinity of <20‰ is the source of CO₂ for the atmosphere with the estimated CO₂ flux up to 112.7 mmol m⁻² day⁻¹. At the salinity >20‰, the thickness of the photic layer increases abruptly and photosynthesis starts to dominate, resulting in the formation of CO₂ flow from the atmosphere into water with a rate of up to 30 mmol m⁻² day⁻¹. A model CO₂ flow at the water/atmosphere interface is presented at a wind speed from 2 to 15 m/s for the entire mixing zone, the water in which generally absorb atmospheric CO₂. A specific feature of the basin compared with the estuaries of the Uda and Usalgin rivers in the zone of the Shantarskii Archipelago is the combination of the relatively low volume of water and solid runoff with a relatively high phosphorus flux in mineral and organic forms.

    Abstract The need for assessment of social skills in clinical and neurotypical populations has led to the widespread, and still increasing use of the 'Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test' (RMET) developed more than two decades ago by Simon Baron-Cohen and colleagues for evaluation of social cognition in autism. By analyzing most recent clinical and brain imaging data, we illuminate a set of factors decisive for using the RMET. Converging evidence indicates: (i) In neurotypical individuals, RMET scores are tightly correlated with other social skills (empathy, emotional intelligence, and body language reading); (ii) The RMET assesses recognition of facial affect, but also heavily relies on receptive language skills, semantic knowledge, and memory; (iii) RMET performance is underwritten by the large-scale ensembles of neural networks inside and well-outside the social brain; (iv) The RMET is limited in its capacity to differentiate between neuropsychiatric conditions as well as between stages and severity of a single disorder, though it reliably distinguishes individuals with altered social cognition or elevated pathological traits from neurotypical persons; (v) Merely gender (as a social construct) rather than neurobiological sex influences performance on the RMET; (vi) RMET scores do not substantially decline in healthy aging, and they are higher with higher education level, cognitive abilities, literacy, and mental well-being; (vii) Accuracy on the RMET, and engagement of the social brain, are greater when emotions are expressed and recognized by individuals with similar cultural/ethnic background. Further research is required to better inform usage of the RMET as a tool for swift and reliable examination of social cognition. In light of comparable visual input from the RMET images and faces covered by masks due to COVID-19 regulations, the analysis is of value for keeping efficient social interaction during the current pandemic, in particular, in professional settings related to social communication.

    Abstract The activity of dissolved radium isotopes ²²³Ra, ²²⁴Ra, ²²⁸Ra, the concentrations of nutrients: ammonium, nitrates, nitrites, phosphates, silicates, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus are studied in the Razdolnaya River estuary at suspension concentration in river water >1000 mg/L. During flood, classical two-layer estuarine circulation was observed over the nearshore; this circulation was formed by a discharge current and compensation flow from the depth of 20 m to the depth of 8 m. The main source of ²²⁸Ra inflow into the estuary is desorption from river suspension in the beginning of the mixing zone near the mouth bar, where its activity reached 163 ± 0.03 dpm 100 L–¹, which is 139 times that in the river water. The zone near the river mouth bar shows higher activity of ²²⁴Ra and ²²³Ra (4 and 17 times greater than that in river water) and an increase in the concentrations of total phosphorus, [Formula: see text], DSi, [Formula: see text], and total nitrogen. An extremum in the activity of ²²⁴Ra (65.41 ± 0.68 dpm 100 L–¹) and an increase in ²²³Ra (1.97 ± 0.11 dpm 100 L–¹) were recorded in the bottom water of the nearshore; therefore, the main source of these isotopes is bottom sediments. Direct correlation was found to exist in the pairs [Formula: see text] – ²²⁴Ra and [Formula: see text] – ²²⁴Ra, and simultaneous extremum was recorded in ²²⁴Ra, [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] in bottom nearshore waters; this extremum is attained in the area with highest density of colonies of polychaetes polychaetes―active bioirrigtors of pore waters.

    Abstract High-grade gliomas are considered an incurable disease. Despite all the various therapy options available, patient survival remains low, and the tumor usually returns. Tumor resistance to conventional therapy and stimulation of the migratory activity of surviving cells are the main factors that lead to recurrent tumors. When developing new treatment approaches, the effect is most often evaluated on standard and phenotypically depleted cancer cell lines. Moreover, there is much focus on the anti-proliferative effect of such therapies without considering the possible stimulation of migratory activity. In this paper, we studied how glioma cell migration changes after exposure to bi-(AID-1-T), an anti-proliferative aptamer. We investigated the effect of this aptamer on eight human glioma cell cultures (Grades III and IV) that were derived from patients' tumor tissue; the difference between primary and recurrent tumors was taken into account. Despite its strong anti-proliferative activity, bi-(AID-1-T) was shown to induce migration of recurrent tumor cells. This result shows the importance of studying the effect of therapeutic molecules on the invasive properties of glioma tumor cells in order to reduce the likelihood of inducing tumor recurrence.

    Abstract Covering faces with masks, due to mandatory pandemic safety regulations, we can no longer rely on the habitual daily-life information. This may be thought-provoking for healthy people, but particularly challenging for individuals with neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental conditions. Au fait research on reading covered faces reveals that: 1) wearing masks hampers facial affect recognition, though it leaves reliable inferring basic emotional expressions; 2) by buffering facial affect, masks lead to narrowing of emotional spectrum and dampen veridical evaluation of counterparts; 3) masks may affect perceived face attractiveness; 4) covered (either by masks or other veils) faces have a certain signal function introducing perceptual biases and prejudices; 5) reading covered faces is gender- and age-specific, being more challenging for males and more variable even in healthy aging; 6) the hampering effects of masks on social cognition occur over the globe; and 7) reading covered faces is likely to be supported by the large-scale assemblies of the neural circuits far beyond the social brain. Challenges and limitations of ongoing research and parallels to the Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test are assessed. Clarification of how masks affect face reading in the real world, where we deal with dynamic faces and have entrée to additional valuable social signals such as body language, as well as the specificity of neural networks underlying reading covered faces calls for further tailored research.

    Abstract Face pareidolia is a tendency to seeing faces in nonface images that reflects high tuning to a face scheme. Yet, studies of the brain networks underwriting face pareidolia are scarce. Here, we examined the time course and dynamic topography of gamma oscillatory neuromagnetic activity while administering a task with nonface images resembling a face. Images were presented either with canonical orientation or with display inversion that heavily impedes face pareidolia. At early processing stages, the peaks in gamma activity (40 to 45 Hz) to images either triggering or not face pareidolia originate mainly from the right medioventral and lateral occipital cortices, rostral and caudal cuneus gyri, and medial superior occipital gyrus. Yet, the difference occurred at later processing stages in the high-frequency range of 80 to 85 Hz over a set of the areas constituting the social brain. The findings speak rather for a relatively late neural network playing a key role in face pareidolia. Strikingly, a cutting-edge analysis of brain connectivity unfolding over time reveals mutual feedforward and feedback intra- and interhemispheric communication not only within the social brain but also within the extended large-scale network of down- and upstream regions. In particular, the superior temporal sulcus and insula strongly engage in communication with other brain regions either as signal transmitters or recipients throughout the whole processing of face-pareidolia images.
