FELINE SUSCEPTIBILITY TO LEPTOSPIROSIS AND PRESENCE OF IMMUNOSUPPRESSIVE CO-MORBIDITIES: FIRST EUROPEAN REPORT OF L. INTERROGANS SEROGROUP AUSTRALIS SEQUENCE TYPE 24 IN A CAT AND SURVEY OF LEPTOSPIRA EXPOSURE IN OUTDOOR CATS

Feline Susceptibility to Leptospirosis and Presence of Immunosuppressive Co-Morbidities: First European Report of L. interrogans Serogroup Australis Sequence Type 24 in a Cat and Survey of Leptospira Exposure in Outdoor Cats

Leptospirosis is one of the most widespread zoonotic diseases and can infect both humans and animals worldwide.The role of the cat as a susceptible host and potential environmental reservoir of Leptospira is still not well understood, due to the lack of obvious clinical signs associated with Leptospira spp.infection in this species.This study aims

Impact of dynamic factors on the exchange flow between two neighboring bays with contrasting topography during summer: A numerical study

A high-resolution, three-dimensional numerical ocean model was employed to understand the exchange flow through Noryang Channel, which connects Gwangyang Bay and Jinju Bay.These two bays exhibit contrasting topographies, with Gwangyang Bay connected to the open ocean through a broad and deep channel, whereas Jinju Bay is relatively isolated from th
