user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Application and validation of the lipofuscin method in the assessment of crustacean age' (1994-1998), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Lipofuscin, which is a fluorescent pigment detectable in crustacean neural tissue is correlated with age in laboratory populations of Homarus, Nephrops and Penaeus. In natural populations where age is unknown it is correlated with body size. In lipofuscin frequency distributions modes are present in some instances and may indicate the age structure of these populations. Lipofuscin accumulation is affected by temperature acting through its effect on metabolic rate. Some evidence has also be found that metabolic rate is affected by population density and size structure. Ontogenetic and sex specific differences occur in the levels of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant activity in Parapenaeus. These properties of crustacean neural tissue may affect the accumulation of lipofuscin and the possibility of using it as an index of age.Measurement of lipofuscin in laboratory and natural populations1. Lipofuscin can be detected and quantified in all species being studied. 2. In cultured populations of known age (H. americanus, H. gammarus, P. japonicus) there is a correlation between age and the percentage of the olfactory cell mass of the brain occupied by lipofuscin. The rate of accumulation is not linearly related to age but slows down in older animals (see O'Donovan and Tully 1996, Wahle et al 1996,). In P. japonicus females accumulate a significantly (1.5-2 fold) higher amount of lipofuscin than males 3. Application of a lipofuscin-age model for N. norvegicus to a population in the Irish Sea predicted a more restricted age distribution and higher mortality than currently predicted using standard fisheries length based assessment. 4. Lipofuscin frequency distributions for N. norvegicus in the Irish Sea do not show clear modes that could represent age groups. However, in juvenil

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'High-capacity and high-performance Thermal energy storage Capsule for low-carbon and energy efficient heating and cooling systems' (Hi-ThermCap).

assistant: **Innovation**

The Hi-ThermCap project offers a solution for the macro-encapsulation of phase-change materials (PCM) for use in gaseousand aqueous systems as a heat transfer medium. The expected outcome of this innovation project is to put at the market’sdisposal a unique solution for thermal energy storage in heating and cooling systems in Europe.The heating industry is recognized as the sector with the biggest energy-saving potential in Europe. In the low temperaturerange of -20 to +100°C, most of the thermal energy amounts are required and then discarded, in particular in our buildingsand industries. PCM are recognized among the key materials to save these huge energy and – at the same time – CO2amounts. They can run through a reproducible phase-change at a substance-specific temperature, during which the thermalenergy is either stored in very large amounts or returned at a constant temperature. Since decades, an adequate method isbeing sought to transfer PCM into a user-friendly form. Both existing micro- and macro-encapsulation solutions for PCMstorage have until now revealed not industrially and economically viable enough for a broad application. The most commonsolution in use in Europe is sensible heat storage (e.g. water storage tank) that has a low energy density and thermalstorage capacity.ESDA offers an affordable, easy-of-use, high-capacity and high-performance solution in the form of a PCM-filled capsuleable to function in combination with all heat exchangers, including renewable energy technologies. The markets addressedare the high-volume heating and cooling market for residential and service sector buildings in Europe, but also the verypromising industrial heating and cooling market. ESDA first calculations foresee a large impact in the application with solarthermal co

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Examining pan-neotropical diasporas' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The expansion of farmers and their languages was a key process in shaping cultural geographies across the globe during the late Holocene. Many human expansions in the past are linked to periods of climate change, which would have offered opportunities and constraints for migrations. In lowland South America, the extent of major language families coincides with the expansion of archaeological traditions ~3-2 kyr BP together with the dissemination of polyculture agroforestry. This period was marked by increased precipitation and forest expansion, as documented in paleoecological and paleoclimate records, ultimately suggesting that climate change may have played a role in tropical farmers' diasporas by expanding the areas where polyculture agroforestry could be practised. However, an evaluation of that hypothesis is hampered by the lack of unified archaeological databases, absence of land cover reconstructions for the late Holocene, and poor integration of archaeology and paleoecology in South America. To overcome those drawbacks, this project will integrate continent-wide archaeological and paleoecological datasets through computer modeling architecture to test the role of environmental drivers in late Holocene cultural diasporas. I will compile all available dates, coordinates and cultural information for late Holocene archaeological sites in lowland South America, model vegetation changes from all available paleoecological records, and integrate those datasets using state-of-the-art computational modeling techniques. I will employ agent-based modeling to simulate scenarios of climate-driven human expansions that will be tested based on the empirical archaeological data gathered over the course of the project. By integrating archaeology, paleoecology and computer modelin

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'Genomic Signatures of Selection In Structured Populations: Detecting Temporal Shifts and Local Adaptation'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Demographic and selective processes jointly influence the distribution of species in space and time. However, their interaction remains poorly studied despite its potential to formulate evolutionary and conservation hypotheses. GENESIS aims to characterize how temporal changes in different modes of linked selection – such as positive, negative, divergent, and adaptive introgression – impact genetic diversity in spatially structured populations. To that end, the action will be organized around four key objectives. I will first develop theoretical models (1) and statistical software (2) to detect genomic signatures of selection and their temporal variation. These tools will then be applied to Iberian chubs that display temperature-driven local adaptation and a mito-nuclear discordance (3), and to hybridizing North American pest sawflies to examine how selection shifted over time due to host-jumping (4). By integrating mathematics, bioinformatics, population genetics, evolutionary theory and experimental evolution, this multidisciplinary action aims to fill critical gaps in our understanding of the demography-selection interplay in spatially structured populations. GENESIS will be carried out with leading experts from the University of Lisbon and the University of Kentucky, enabling me to cultivate my network of collaborators. This action will provide me a unique opportunity to further my training in evolutionary biology. I will notably acquire novel skills, expanding my expertise in field and experimental work, and in bioinformatic method development, crucial for my development as an independent researcher. GENESIS will make a bridge between empirical and theoretical evolutionary biology to tackle fundamental questions in adaptation and speciation, with direct implication

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Feasibility Study of energy efficient, sustainable, innovative Ceramic powders Dry-Mix method and enabling additives' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Established process for the manufacture of ceramic parts involve the key step of mixing in the wet state, and controlleddrying (also called atomization) through Spray Dryer equipment. It can guarantee the absolute control in the size and shapeof the particles, and their residual degree of humidity. The advantages, making this a fundamental step in the ceramicindustry, are related to the flowing capacity of the spray-dried granules, permitting the process at high speed and controlover the final performances of the products. As a drawback, this is recognized as one of the most energy intensive steps inthe ceramic process, due to the massive evaporation of water and the use of compressed air, almost equivalent to thesintering at high temperature. Early results of independent research conducted from DAXEL, in cooperation with a privatelaboratory in Italy, have brought to the awareness that it can be avoided, through the implementation into a dry-mixingprocess of fluidizing agents, permitting the granulated powders to reach an equivalent level of fluidity, and therefore enablingequivalent speed of processing. The advantages DAXEL can provide to its ceramic processor customers are the reductionof one energy intensive step, the reduction of capital investments at no modification of the final quality. TechnologicalFeasibility, Market Assessment, Business Models and Plans are the objectives of the DryMix project, oriented to permit theimplementation of the project results into real business cases. A new infancy for the industry of ceramics is expected thanksto the revolution of the DryMix project, permitting an ambitious sky-rocket for DAXEL production and its central role in thesupply of mixing additives, and the process set up for new ranges of customers, in Europe and Worldwi

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Groundwater Artificial recharge Based on Alternative sources of wateR: aDvanced INtegrated technologies and managEment'.

assistant: **Concept**

Aquifers are the main source of water in most semi-arid areas of the Mediterranean basin. As a result of over-exploitation hydrologic deficits of varying acuity prevail in these areas. Seawater intrusion and pollution have been identified as the primary factors for quality degradation. Further deterioration can be expected based on trends in the precipitation regime attributed to climate change. The objective of this project is to identify alternative sources of water and to investigate the feasibility, both environmental and economic of their utilization. Alternative water sources to be artificially recharged comprise: surface water runoff, treated effluent, and imported water. Furthermore, brackish water bodies, present in many aquifers could be utilised after desalination. The project structured into eight work-packages comprehensively addresses all issues related to the problem: expected precipitation rates, recharge and water budgets, identification of potential alternative water sources and technologies for their utilization, development of tools for the management of groundwater resources under artificial recharge conditions, aquifer vulnerability assessment, characterization of the unsaturated zone, and mixing effects. Four test sites have been selected for practical application of the approach. Substantial field testing, integration of technologies and findings to ensure optimal implementations of aquifer recharge alternatives, quantification of socio-economic impacts and development of dissemination platform are planned. Finally a carefully designed project management shall drive and accompany the project execution in order to ascertain consistency and efficiency.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Freshwater biodiversity and community composition in a changing climate: from ecosystem manipulation to biogeographical patterns' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The project has three main objectives: i) To assess climate change and nutrient effects on phenology, biodiversity (taxon richness and species derived measures), and community composition of freshwater organisms, ii) To assess the importance of connectivity for species diversity (taxon richness and species derived parameters) and community composition of freshwater organisms under climate change, and iii) Predict the geographic range of individual species as a function of climate and other environmental variables (e.g. land-use and stream flow) including forecast range shifts of organisms due to climate change and identify potential climate change sensitive (species) indicators. The main reason for suggestion this project is that human activities are causing water pollution, habitat loss and/or degradation, overexploitation, flow modifications, and alien species invasions to freshwater ecosystems on all continents and at the same time freshwater ecosystems contain a especially high amount of biodiversity. There are also evidence that climate change effects are already taking place in freshwater ecosystems across Europe. FRESHCLIM therefore aims at combining research questions at the forefront of freshwater- (including both lakes and rivers) as well as terrestrial ecology, investigating responses to climate change as well as other human induced pressures on these ecosystems. It links climate change effects on phenology as well as biodiversity and community composition with the effects of multiple stressors such as eutrophication, hydrology and morphology. FRESHCLIM spans timescales of 10 years to 10.000 years and spatial scales from meters to more than 3.000 km. With the FRESHCLIM project I expect to advance current knowledge of how freshwater ecosystems react to climate

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Conserved and novel functions of conventional dendritic cells: an evolutionary approach' (ZebraDC) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

ZebraDC aims to establish the zebrafish as a tractable model for conventional dendritic cell (cDC) research and leverage its strengths to uncover conserved and non-canonical cDC functions across vertebrates. While mammalian cDCs are well defined into three subsets—cDC1, cDC2A, and cDC2B—emerging evidence suggests that these cells also engage in underexplored roles beyond adaptive immune priming, including interactions with the nervous system. By integrating comparative immunology, advanced imaging, gene editing, and transcriptomics across zebrafish, mouse, and human models, this proposal will: (1) define zebrafish dendritic cells at the transcriptional level and establish their bona fide identity as cDCs, (2) dissect their developmental origin and functional properties to align them with vertebrate counterparts, and (3) validate conserved non-canonical cDC functions that could reshape current paradigms in immunology. Preliminary data support the feasibility of this approach, including a novel zebrafish flt3 reporter line with high specificity for putative cDCs, enabling in vivo tracking and functional studies. By harnessing the unique experimental advantages of the zebrafish and complementing these findings with mammalian validation, this project will advance our understanding of the evolutionary foundations of cDC biology and redefine their functional landscape. Ultimately, it will provide critical insights into cDC-mediated regulation of immunity and beyond, with implications for vaccination, inflammation, cancer, and neuro-immune therapies.

CHAMELEON's vision is to introduce, develop, test and evaluate an integrated network of collaborating agents, equipped with advanced sensing and cognitive capabilities that can support multiple - missions at tactical level.  While UVs are highly specialized systems manufactured by different providers, they all implement the CHAMELEON specifications, enabling all common features necessary to take part in the surveillance tasks foreseen by the use cases.  As such, CHAMELEON aspires to exploit already well-established technologies and tools that have reach adequate maturity, towards offering a complex interoperable and reconfigurable system capable of supporting a wide set of heterogeneous missions in diverse environmental conditions. CHAMELEON innovation lies on a novel reconfigurable drone, the CHAMELEON drone, able to modify its configuration and sizing upon demand, which can be deployed in homogenous or heterogeneous groups to support complex scenarios, as well as a set of existing heterogeneous, modular, interoperable, networked UVs systems. CHAMELEON Drones will be able to adapt its operation from a number of available services or application through CHAMELEON App-store.CHAMELEON will organize two open calls to attract and select the best SMEs from across the continent. SMEs will be funded to generate AI supported products, processes, and business models with strong market potential across the proposed clusters. Besides a total financial support of ~€600.000, CHAMELEON will provide technical and business mentorship to the selected SMEs. Open Calls will also lead towards the industrial applicability of the proposed tools and services without EC funding: it is envisioned that an estimated of 10 applications will be submitted through CHAMELEON and will be enriched with
