Probing the Influence of Sulfur–Aromatic Interactions on the Electronic Structure of Gas‐Phase Peptides

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Just as fingerprints reveal identity, spectroscopic fingerprints reveal molecular secrets. In this article, we show parts of the unique fingerprint of the sulfur–aromatic interaction. By measuring how this force alters the electronic structure of gas‐phase peptides, we provide a fundamental understanding of interactions that give insights into the ...

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 27-82., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Real-World Oriented Smartphone AR Supported Learning System Based on Planetarium Contents for Seasonal Constellation Observation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
A popular astronomical concept covered by projection learning programs in the planetarium is seasonal constellation. However, a planetarium’s learning environment is limited to virtual scenes, where learners can observe seasonal constellations, but there

Next-generation Astronomy

open access: yes, 2010
Fundamental changes are taking place in the way we do astronomy. In twenty years time, it is likely that most astronomers will never go near a cutting-edge telescope, which will be much more efficiently operated in service mode.

Sunshine Duration in Brazil From Meteosat (1983–2020): Climatology, Variability and Long‐Term Trends

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using nearly four decades of Meteosat satellite data (1983–2020), this study presents a country‐wide climatology of sunshine duration (SDU) in Brazil. The results reveal marked regional contrasts, dominant modes of variability, and significant long‐term trends, providing new information on the most relevant meteorological systems that influence SDU and

Weather Patterns Associated With Coastal Disasters in Santa Catarina, Southern Brazil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The study identified weather patterns (WPs) associated with coastal disasters between 1998 and 2020 along the Santa Catarina coast, Brazil. Using atmospheric and oceanographic data combined with official disaster records, five WPs were defined, mainly associated with cyclonic and anticyclonic systems linked to extreme wave events.

From smartphones to stargazing: the impact of mobile-enhanced learning on astronomy education

open access: yesScience Education Quarterly
This study investigates the impact of mobile-enhanced learning on astronomy education in secondary schools. Despite students' inherent fascination with space, traditional astronomy curricula often fail to engage learners effectively. We employed a mixed-

From Niche to Mainstream: A Knowledge Exchange Model for Sustainable Housing Adoption

open access: yesKnowledge and Process Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As climate change intensifies the demand for sustainable practices, the residential housing sector remains a critical yet underutilized area for promoting energy efficiency. Although consumer awareness is increasing, sustainable and energy‐efficient (SEE) housing continues to occupy a niche market.

Santa and the moon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Happy end-of-the-year evening and night events provide good opportunities to explain the phases of the moon. The need for such moon phase education is once again demonstrated, through an investigation of illustrations on Santa Claus and Christmas gift ...
