Photometric CCD UB VI C photometry obtained for 4860 stars surrounding the embedded southern cluster SAI 113 (Skiff 8) is used to examine the reddening in the field and derive the distance to the cluster and nearby van G...

Crop wild relatives (CWR) are plant taxa closely related to crops and are a source of high genetic diversity that can help adapt crops to the impacts of global change, particularly to meet increasing consumer demand in t...

The Timor green pigeon Treron psittaceus, endemic to Timor, Rote, and adjacent satellite islands (eastern Indonesia and Timor-Leste), is declining because of severe hunting pressure and forest conversion. During 2002–2...

Microring resonators (MRRs) are the important devices for the development of silicon-based optoelectronic integrated chips. Their composition of optical modules, such as optical modulators, switches, and optical logic ga...

Slot-type nanogaps have been widely utilized in transmission geometry because of their advantages of exclusive light funneling and exact quantification of near-field enhancement at the gap. For further application of the...

In his writing on solastalgia, Glenn A. Albrecht, the creator of the term, only stops for a brief moment to ponder on the possibility of an animal solastalgia. While he does not elaborate on the topic, he admits that in ...

The last important –and possibly the most spectacular– turnover in South American mammal history occurred around the Pleistocene-Holocene boundary, when 100% of megamammal species and about 80% of large mammal specie...

The parameterized extinction data of Fitzpatrick and Massa (1986, 1988) for the ultraviolet and various sources for the optical and near-infrared are used to derive a meaningful average extinction law over the 3.5 micron...

ABSTRACT Amazonia (defined herein as the Amazon basin) is home to the greatest concentration of biodiversity on Earth, providing unique genetic resources and ecological functions that contribute to ecosystem services glo...

Sensing the scattered fields of single metallic nanostructures is a crucial step towards the applications of isolated plasmonic antennas, such as for the sensing of single molecules or nanoparticles. In the past, both ne...

Copper metal nanoparticles (Nps) have received increasing interest during the last years due to their potential applications in several fields of science and technology. Their optical properties depend on the characteris...
