The plasmasphere contains rich small-scale structure that plays a key role in regulating wave propagation and mass transport in the inner magnetosphere, yet the evolution of plasmaspheric density ducts remains poorly und...

Abstract Biological production of adipic acid, a crucial building block in nylon and polymer manufacturing, from renewable feedstocks has attracted attention as a sustainable alternative to the traditional petrochemical ...

In this paper, we chart an emerging academic terrain: cultural evolution of the arts, which is a theory-driven exploration of artistic dynamics, often done with large datasets of music, literature, movies, paintings, or ...

Today, when managers are faced with radical paradigm shifts, researchers are closely following the phenomenon of the digitalization of the decision-making process. Discussing various advantages and disadvantages, as ...

Introduction. Nowadays, the most widely used wind energy conversion system in wind farms is based on a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG); it has a large speed range and can function in multiple modes. Problem. Harmon...

ObjectiveCoals are highly sensitive to variations in temperature and pressure conditions. The structural evolution of coal macromolecules, driven by tectono-thermal processes, is the key to understanding coal rank transi...

Abstract Background The residential building sector is a major contributor to Germany’s greenhouse gas emissions. Over 60 % of the energy used for space and domestic hot water heating comes from fossil fuels sources a...

Smart environments play a crucial role in achieving sustainable development goals, particularly those related to environmental protection and public health. In recent years, environmental degradation caused by air and wa...

Long-term monitoring of coastal aquaculture ponds (APs) is essential for sustainable food production and environmental management. Intensive aquaculture has reshaped coastal landscapes and threatened ecosystem services. ...

Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) surrounding supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are among the densest stellar environments in the Universe. In these environments, collisions can shape the stellar mass function and produce exot...

BackgroundRadical prostatectomy remains a key curative treatment for localized prostate cancer which has undergone continuous transformation. Recent developments in robot-assisted and single-port surgery have followed th...

Abstract Background Repetitive elements, particularly satellite DNA (satDNA), play a significant role in genome evolution and organisation. However, their diversity and evolutionary dynamics remain poorly understood in n...

Abstract Selenoproteins incorporate the rare selenium-containing amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) and play crucial roles for redox homeostasis, stress response, and hormone regulation. Sec is inserted by co-translational ...

Abstract Industrial emissions are significant contributors to global air pollution, particularly with respect to PM2.5 and CO2 emissions. It remains one of the most pressing environmental challenges globally, driven larg...

Abstract Background Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading global cause of disability, yet conventional tools lack sensitivity for early detection and precise prognostication. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine lear...

Context. Water ice is expected to be the dominant volatile component of bodies formed in the outer Solar System. However, recent observations of comets and trans-Neptunian objects suggest that the relative abundances of ...

In the Sichuan Basin, the activity of the Huayingshan fault significantly affects the structural evolution of the sedimentary cover and promotes the formation of oil and gas fields, but further research is needed on its ...

Abstract Freshwater adaptation from marine ancestors represents a major ecological transition in teleost evolution, yet its genomic basis remains poorly understood. The genus Brachirus is predominantly marine, although a...

Abstract Background Comparative genomics and plastome phylogenomics have advanced significantly in recent years, highlighting the diversity, possible admixture, and non-neutral evolution of the predominantly considered n...

Multiple studies had been conducted to improve the geological understanding and enrichment patterns of the Wufeng-Longmaxi Formation in the southeastern Sichuan Basin’s complex tectonic belt. However, the influence of ...

Educators in the life sciences can be challenged by students who disagree with Darwin’s theory of evolution. This article analyses the history of Creationist’s attempts to introduce alternative explanations to Darwin...

Abstract We study the influence of the instantaneous appearance of a conformal Killing vector (CKV) in self-gravitating fluid spheres during their evolution. For doing that we introduce a tensor variable whose time depen...

Abstract The unambiguous identification of individual chromosomes is fundamental to studying genome organisation and evolution. Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis (Trin.) Tzvel), a perennial tetraploid grass closely related to...

The rapid growth of e-commerce provides unprecedented convenience but also generates environmental costs, including carbon emissions, plastic packaging, and reverse logistics waste. Understanding green consumer behavior ...
