Comparing the Last Interglacial (MIS 5e) with the present interglacial period (MIS 1) using a multidimensional functional diversity analysis: The marine molluscs from Santa Maria Island (Azores Archipelago, central Atlantic) as a case study

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine fossil records hold outstanding importance for ecological, evolutionary and biogeographical studies. Santa Maria Island in the Azores Archipelago (central Atlantic) features a remarkable marine fossil record spanning from the Pliocene to recent times.

Holocene climate oscillations, seismotectonic events and human–environmental interactions reconstructed from the Giannades palaeolake on Corfu (Eastern Mediterranean, Greece)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Mediterranean is particularly sensitive to rapid climate changes (RCCs) during the Holocene. An increasing number of natural climate archives revealed that socio‐economic developments were influenced by such RCCs since the Palaeolithic. However, multi‐millennial and high‐resolution archives are still rare and often located in mountainous ...

Stereoscopic Brightness Roll‐Off in Augmented Reality

Journal of the Society for Information Display, EarlyView.
The increasing demand for power‐efficient immersive augmented reality (AR) displays has led to a growing need for effective power‐saving strategies. Here, the authors investigate for the first time the stereoscopic effectiveness of brightness roll‐off (BRO) for perceptually‐optimized power savings in AR.

Does Palsa Thaw in Northern Finland Contribute to Remobilisation of Metals Accumulated in Peat Into Surface Waters?

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost is rapidly degrading in the sporadic zone, including palsa mires in Scandinavia. Peatlands in the area have likely accumulated heavy metals from atmospheric deposition of industrial contaminants in the wider region. As the palsa mire chemical composition is not well known, and in other permafrost regions the permafrost thaw may ...

Carbon, Nitrogen, and Corresponding Stable Isotope Signatures Reveal Channel Banks as Major Sediment Sources in a Tropical Agricultural Watershed

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncertainties about the applicability of δ13C and δ15N as tracers of sediment sources in tropical river basins highlight the need for more in‐depth investigations of these isotopes. This study therefore assessed the effectiveness of δ13C and δ15N signatures in discriminating sediment sources in an agricultural catchment in Northeast Brazil ...

A Novel 9‐Channel 1H, 3‐Channel 31P Radiofrequency Coil for Interleaved Multinuclear Studies of Human Calf Muscle at 7 T

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop a double‐tuned calf coil with excellent 1H and 31P performance to study muscle physiology by interleaved 1H/31P MRS and parallel imaging at 7 T. Methods The coil combines three 1H transceive dipoles, six 1H receive‐only loops and three 31P transceive loops, arranged in a nested, half‐cylindrical layout.

Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition as a predictor of mortality and prolonged hospitalization in emergency department patients: A prospective cohort study

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Early diagnosis of malnutrition is essential for rapid decision‐making regarding nutrition care to improve patient outcomes. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition using the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria and to assess the association of GLIM with 1‐year mortality and length of hospital ...

Patterns of parenteral nutrition use in the inpatient setting: A retrospective cohort study

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parenteral nutrition (PN) supports patients unable to absorb sufficient nutrients from their gastrointestinal tracts. Yet, information about the patterns and extent of PN's in‐hospital use is lacking. Data on this topic should provide comparison points for nutrition support teams and hospital administrators examining PN use in their
