A new computer simulation of domestic catsâ noses suggests that the convoluted nasal structures involved in their sense of smell function similarly to parallel coiled gas chromatographsâlaboratory equipment used for highly efficient analysis of the chemical makeup of substances . Zhenxing Wu of the Ohio State University , U.S . and colleagues present these findings in the open-access journal PLOS Computational Biology  on June 29, 2023. Vertebrates use their

In addition to the early season projections from NOAA and its partners , NOAA also issues HAB forecasts during the bloom season . These forecasts provide the current extent and five-day outlooks of where the bloom will travel and what concentrations are likely to be seen , allowing local decision makers to make
