An Experimental Study of the Utility of Adventitious Roots for Determining the Hydroperiod in Isolated Wetlands

open access: yes, 2017
Accurate measurement of the hydroperiod in isolated wetlands currently relies upon the installation and frequent monitoring of devices such as piezometers and staff gauges. Observations of biological indicators of the hydroperiod can provide supplemental

Harmonising digitised herbarium data to enhance biodiversity knowledge: Major steps towards an updated checklist for the flora of Greenland

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Herbaria worldwide hold centuries of plant data that are key to understanding and protecting biodiversity; however, even with increased digital access, differences in plant naming systems make it difficult to compare records. We developed a semi‐automated workflow that standardises species names and organises herbaria records from multiple institutions

Simulated elephant foraging alters tree root exudation rates: Species‐specific responses and implications for belowground carbon dynamics in tropical forests

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Asian elephants play crucial roles in ecosystem functioning, and their interactions with plants influence above‐ and belowground carbon cycling. We tested whether their mechanically destructive foraging triggers short‐term, stress‐induced shifts in tree root exudation, an underappreciated pathway linking herbivory to belowground carbon processes.

Role of saponins for the anticonvulsant effect of adventitious roots of Ficus religiosa

open access: yes, 2012
Context: The adventitious roots of Ficus religiosa L. (Moraceae) have been extensively used in traditional medicine for treatment of several disorders, including epilepsy. Objective: To investigate the possible anticonvulsant effect of the adventitious

Purification and Properties of Polyvinyl Nitrate and Its Compatibility With Solid Oxidizers

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyvinyl nitrate (PVN) is a nitrate‐ester energetic binder that can be produced directly from polyvinyl alcohol—a cheap commodity feedstock—thereby offering potential cost and supply‐chain advantages over binders based on nitrocellulose and other specialty polymers.

Synthesis of Amorphous‐Crystalline Mixture Boron Nitride for Balanced Resistive Switching Operation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
An amorphous–crystalline mixture BN (acm‐BN) is synthesized through low‐pressure chemical vapor deposition, achieving balanced resistive switching with low SET voltage and stable RESET. High‐resolution transmission electron microscopy reveals that BN films are fully amorphous at 930 °C, a mixed amorphous–crystalline phase is achieved at 990 °C.

Size Scaling of the Electrochemical Performance of Ti3C2Tx MXene Microelectrode Arrays for Electrophysiological Recording and Stimulation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This study evaluates Ti3C2Tx MXene‐based microelectrodes across a range of diameters (25–500 µm) and elucidates their recording and stimulation capabilities for bioelectronic applications. Several electrochemical measurements—supported further by equivalent‐circuit modeling—revealed enhanced recording and stimulation capabilities of the MXene ...
