  • Modeling collective dynamics in multi-agent systems is challenging due to the complexity of short and long-range interactions. Here, the authors develop hierarchical and equivariant graph neural networks that accurately predict local and global behaviors, outperforming traditional GNNs in forecasting collective motion in vortex clusters and microswimmers.

  • The evolution of phagotrophy by microbes required effective particle transport and ingestion, enabling the rise of ciliates as key grazers in aquatic ecosystems. This study shows that the morphological adaptations of ciliates for phagotrophy were shaped by hydrodynamic forces.

  • Aquatic animals outperform robotic vehicles in underwater navigation due to robots’ limited access to GPS and flow maps in deep water. The authors report that to successfully learn navigation, an agent must sense both local flows and flow gradients, enabling adaptable and robust policies under unfamiliar conditions.

  • The ducts of many fluid-pumping organs feature cilia. Two structural parameters organize the different types of ducts into a continuous spectrum between ciliary carpet and flame designs depending on the fluid-pumping requirements.

  • The North Atlantic biological pump has the most intense absorption of C globally, but how this will fare in light of climate changes (especially sea-ice melting) is poorly understood. Here the authors present a 24-month continuous time series of physical, chemical, and biological observations in the Fram Strait.

  • Mucociliary clearance is crucial for airway defense but its structure-function relationships in humans are not fully understood. Here, the authors show how airway epithelial structure impacts clearance by mapping cilia distribution, comparing human and rat airways, and developing quantitative models to assess function.
