From Rare to Recurrent: Intensifying Hot–Dry Extremes Across Romania

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Romania has undergone a marked shift toward more frequent and spatially extensive compound hot–dry months since the 1990s, with persistent hotspots in the eastern Moldavian Plateau and the lower Danube–Bărăgan–Black Sea lowlands and comparatively buffered conditions at higher elevations.

Beyond a dual role: how Purpureocillium lilacinum reprograms citrus metabolism for integrated biocontrol and growth promotion

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plants harbor complex microbial communities that are fundamental to their health and productivity. Among them, endophytic fungi such as Purpureocillium lilacinum establish mutualistic associations, offering dual benefits as plant growth promoters and biocontrol agents.

Heartbeat Biometrics for Remote Authentication Using Sensor Embedded Computing Devices

International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks, 2015
Biometric verification has been included in remote user authentication schemes recently. In this paper, we have proposed the use of heartbeat biometrics for its liveness property as a possible defense against spoof attacks in remote authentication ...

Soft biometrics and their application in person recognition at a distance [PDF]

, 2014
Soft biometric information extracted from a human body (e.g., height, gender, skin color, hair color, and so on) is ancillary information easily distinguished at a distance but it is not fully distinctive by itself in recognition tasks.

TriadAuth: Continuous Authentication Through Structured GUI Sequence Modelling With Drift Adaptation and Modality‐Aware Explanations

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Continuous authentication (CA) systems based on behavioural biometrics are increasingly deployed in zero‐trust architectures, yet their performance degrades over time due to natural behavioural drift arising from device changes, fatigue and evolving habits.
