Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

Effect of macro polypropylene fiber and basalt fiber on impact resistance of basalt fiber‐reinforced polymer‐reinforced concrete [PDF]
Structural Concrete, 2020 AbstractIn this paper, the effect of macro nonmetallic fibers (i.e., polypropylene fibers and basalt fibers) on the impact response of basalt fiber‐reinforced polymer‐reinforced concrete (FRP‐RC) discs is experimentally investigated using a self‐developed drop‐weight impact test device.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This paper conducts a numerical simulation study on the construction of a deep‐buried tunnel in an anisotropic stratum area. A statistical analysis of the effects of two anti‐faulting design measures, namely, a conventional design and an articulated design, is carried out, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the anti‐faulting structures ...
