Storm events influence the transport of macroplastics in urban streams. [PDF]
Water Environ ResWe found higher rates of macroplastic (particles > 5 mm) transport rate in urban streams during storms relative to baseflow. Transport was related to storm size. Results will improve predictive models of macroplastic transport and inform policies to reduce macroplastic pollution. Abstract Plastic litter is a globally pervasive pollutant.

International Journal of Geophysics, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Site characterization is a prerequisite for the successful and economic design of engineering structures and earthworks by providing geological information for any proposed project. Until now, no detail study has been carried out on the site characterization and classification using shear wave velocity (Vs) up to the top 30 m depth in Hawassa town. For

Estimating price sensitivity of economic agents using discontinuity in nonlinear contracts
Quantitative Economics, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 397-433, July 2017., 2017 This paper proposes a method to estimate price sensitivity of economic agents exploiting discontinuity in nonlinear contracts. As an application, we study contracts between a managed care organization and hospitals for organ transplants. Exploiting donut holes in the reimbursement contracts, we show that the impact of the reimbursement rate on ...

[Retracted] Apoptosis and Molecular Targeting Therapy in Cancer
BioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Apoptosis is the programmed cell death which maintains the healthy survival/death balance in metazoan cells. Defect in apoptosis can cause cancer or autoimmunity, while enhanced apoptosis may cause degenerative diseases. The apoptotic signals contribute into safeguarding the genomic integrity while defective apoptosis may promote carcinogenesis.

Direct methods for matrix Sylvester and Lyapunov equations
Journal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2003, Issue 6, Page 277-303, 2003., 2003 We revisit the two standard dense methods for matrix Sylvester and Lyapunov equations: the Bartels‐Stewart method for A1X + XA2 + D = 0 and Hammarling′s method for AX + XAT + BBT = 0 with A stable. We construct three schemes for solving the unitarily reduced quasitriangular systems. We also construct a new rank‐1 updating scheme in Hammarling′s method.

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 10, October 2025.ABSTRACT Background In Central and Southeast Europe, oak‐dominated forests form the backbone of temperate forest ecosystems. Therefore, their adaptability is crucial for maintaining the biodiversity of these ecosystems under ongoing climate change. Turkey oak (Quercus cerris L.) is a widespread species in these regions and holds significant potential ...
