Multiple indicators record human adaptations to climatic change during the Middle Holocene at the Wanbei site in the middle and lower Huai River valley, China

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The archaeological sediment sequences analysis from the Wanbei site reveals a predominantly warm and humid climate with a brief cooling phase between 5600 and 5400 a BP, during the Middle Holocene in the middle and lower Huai River valley. Despite the cooling trend, rice remained the dominant crop in mixed farming, while the proportion of millet ...

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...

Critical insights into the potential risks of antipsychotic drugs to fish, including through effects on behaviour

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Antipsychotic drugs (APDs) are a diverse class of neuroactive pharmaceuticals increasingly detected in surface and ground waters globally. Some APDs are classified as posing a high environmental risk, due, in part, to their tendency to bioaccumulate in wildlife, including fish.

Incorporating cyclone risk in the design of marine protected and conserved areas as an ecosystem‐based adaptation approach

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine protected and conserved areas (MPCAs) are promoted as an ecosystem‐based adaptation (EbA) approach to increase community and ecosystem resilience to climate change. However, traditional approaches to MPCA design typically do not consider climate risk or habitat condition under a climate threat.

A systematic review of natural colourants and trend forecasting practices for the textile and fashion industry

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent global interest in sustainable practices in the textile and fashion industry has inspired stakeholders to readopt natural colourants. However, integrating these practices raises several questions regarding the latest developments in natural colourant and trend forecasting practices in the textile and fashion industry.

Coloured polyhydroxyalkanoates: A review

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a class of biopolymers produced by various microorganisms, with poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) being the most extensively studied. PHAs are widely studied as substitutes for conventional plastics due to their similar physicochemical properties. However, the production cost of PHAs remains high.

Synaptonemal Complexes in Brown Algae [PDF]

open access: possibleNature, 1973
THE small size of the nuclei of many brown algae makes it difficult to observe the chromosomes and their configurations in nuclear divisions, although life history studies and investigations of nuclei with the light microscope suggest that meiosis in these forms takes place in the unilocular sporangia.
