The Revision of Lichen Flora Around Maxwell Bay, King George Island, Maritime Antarctic
Since the floristic study of lichens at the Barton and Weaver Peninsulas of King George Island in 2006, there have been intense investigations of the...

Research on stress relaxation behavior of confined Chinese fir subjected to compression
The anchorage system can enhance the bending resistance and initial stiffness of timber structure joints. The system applies pressure through...

Microwave complex permittivity and anisotropy of conifer wood chips vs moisture content: experiments and modeling
The complex microwave permittivity—including anisotropy- of wood chips of softwood has been measured for different moisture contents in the band 0.75...

Antarctica is less isolated with increasing depth - evidence from pycnogonids
No other group of animals typifies the uniqueness of Antarctic life more than Pycnogonida (sea spiders), with 20% of all known species found in the...

Accuracy of common stem volume formulae using terrestrial photogrammetric point clouds: a case study with savanna trees in Benin
Recent applications of digital photogrammetry in forestry have highlighted its utility as a viable mensuration technique. However, in tropical...

Historical review and contribution to the knowledge of Amythas membranifera (Ampharetidae): an integrative perspective of an Antarctic polychaete
Amythas membranifera was originally described through a single and incomplete specimen found in Commonwealth Bay, Adélie Land, Antarctica, at ~ 600 m...

Finite Element Method for Simulation of Frozen Potato Tempering in Microwave and Microwave Infrared Oven
Heat transfer equations solved by the finite element method can be used to understand how foods’ temperature changes during tempering. In this paper,...

Using spatially variable nitrogen application and crop responses to evaluate crop nitrogen use efficiency
Low nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is ubiquitous in agricultural systems, with mounting global scale consequences for both atmospheric aspects of...
-
Assessing performance of empirical models for forecasting crop responses to variable fertilizer rates using on-farm precision experimentation
Data-driven decision making in agriculture can be augmented by utilizing the data gathered from precision agriculture technologies to make the most...

Calculating Binodals and Interfacial Tension of Phase-Separated Condensates from Molecular Simulations with Finite-Size Corrections
We illustrate three methods for calculating the binodals of phase-separated condensates from molecular simulations. Because molecular simulations can... -
Companion species mitigate nutrient constraints in high country grasslands in New Zealand
BackgroundExperimental work using pot trials and mesocosm studies has indicated that species combinations are more effective than single species...

Oscillations of a soft viscoelastic drop
A soft viscoelastic drop has dynamics governed by the balance between surface tension, viscosity, and elasticity, with the material rheology often...

Recently absorbed nitrogen incorporates into new and old tissues: evidence from a 15 N-labelling experiment in deciduous oaks
We quantified the distribution of nitrogen (N), dry-matter (biomass) and of soil-applied 15 N in tree and soil compartments in five naturally-growing...

Gaining Wings to FLY: Using Drosophila Oogenesis as an Entry Point for Citizen Scientists in Laboratory Research
Citizen science is a productive approach to include non-scientists in research efforts that impact particular issues or communities. In most cases,... -
A magnetic levitation based low-gravity simulator with an unprecedented large functional volume
Low-gravity environment can have a profound impact on the behaviors of biological systems, the dynamics of fluids, and the growth of materials....

Convex Hull Principle and Distinguishing Proteins from Arbitrary Amino Acid Sequences
In every natural science field, it is important to discover the laws that govern it. In chemistry, there are three laws: the Law of Mass... -
The microbial landscape of colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a substantial source of global morbidity and mortality in dire need of improved prevention and treatment strategies. As...
