Symbiosis

Symbiosis

Symbiotic relationships are long-term, close interactions between individuals of different species that affect the distribution and abundance of those species. When a relationship is beneficial to both species, this is called mutualism. When the relationship is beneficial to one species but neither beneficial nor harmful to the other species, this is called commensalism. When one organism is harmed to benefit another, the relationship is known as parasitism. These types of relationships often...

Cohesion

Cohesion

Cohesion is the attraction between molecules of the same type, such as water molecules. Water molecules have an overall neutral charge but are polar molecule. An oxygen atom in one water molecule has a partial negative charge that can bind to a hydrogen atom with a partial positive charge in a second water molecule, forming a hydrogen bond. Each water molecule can form up to four hydrogen bonds with other water molecules. Hydrogen bonds are responsible for water's cohesive nature.

Sustainable Development

Sustainable Development

As the human population continues to grow and use resources, we must be mindful of our planet’s natural limits. Sustainable development provides a pathway to maintain and improve human life now while also ensuring that future generations will have the resources that they need. The long-term success of sustainability efforts rests on understanding the interplay between human actions and ecological systems.

The Scientific Method

The Scientific Method

The scientific method is a detailed, empirical problem-solving process used by biologists and other scientists. This iterative approach involves formulating a question based on observation, developing a testable potential explanation for the observation (called a hypothesis), making and testing predictions based on the hypothesis, and using the findings to create new hypotheses and predictions.
Generally, predictions are tested using carefully-designed experiments. Based on the outcome of these...

Feedback Inhibition

Feedback Inhibition

Biochemical reactions are occurring constantly in cells, converting starting substances to different products, usually with the help of enzymes that speed the reactions. Without enzymes, it would take far too long for most reactions to occur to be useful to the cell!

Free Energy

Free Energy

Free energy—abbreviated as G for the scientist Gibbs who discovered it—is a measurement of useful energy that can be extracted from a reaction to do work. It is the energy in a chemical reaction that is available after entropy is accounted for. Reactions that take in energy are considered endergonic and reactions that release energy are exergonic. Plants carry out endergonic reactions by taking in sunlight and carbon dioxide to produce glucose and oxygen. Animals, in turn, break down the...

Area of Science:

Scholarly Communication
Information Science
Publishing Studies

Background:

The current scholarly publishing system, characterized by tightly coupled functions within individual journals, hinders innovation and reform.
Essential functions like archiving, registration, dissemination, and certification are bundled, making system-wide improvements difficult.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose a new model for scholarly publishing that fosters innovation and adaptability.
To address the sluggish adoption of improvements in scholarly publishing functions, such as peer review.

Main Methods:

Introducing the "decoupled journal" (DcJ) model, which unbundles publishing functions into distinct services.
Envisioning a marketplace where these services compete and evolve independently.
Outlining a transition path from the current system to the DcJ model.

Main Results:

The decoupled journal (DcJ) model facilitates a flexible, Web-like environment for scholarly publishing.
Unbundled services allow for greater competition, innovation, and responsiveness to user needs and technological advancements.
The DcJ model enables gradual evolution from the existing publishing infrastructure.

Conclusions:

The decoupled journal (DcJ) model offers a viable solution to the limitations of the current, tightly coupled scholarly publishing system.
This unbundled, service-oriented approach promotes a more dynamic and adaptable publishing ecosystem.
Further development of external services, particularly for peer review, is key to realizing the DcJ model's potential.
