Abstract Impact investments have the dual goals of generating profit and environmental and/or social impact from the same project or enterprise. This article examines recent impact investments in biodiversity conservation—specifically, debt finance in the form of conventional bonds and impact bonds.

A label‐free fluorescence quenching immunoassays using hydroxyl radical‐sensitive carbon dots as fluorescence probe was established for simultaneous extraction and highly sensitive detection of six wide‐spectrum antibiotics (nitrofuran metabolites, chloramphenicol, and florfenicol) in animal‐derived food.

The obtained results are useful for designing conservation strategies for the germplasm as well as implementing breeding programs such as introducing cultivars with different goals such as early or late ripening and seedless, non‐astringent, large, and deeper color‐fruits.

Abstract Small mountain lakes are natural archives for understanding long‐term natural and anthropogenic impact on the environment. This study focused on long‐term (last ca. 13 000 years) vegetation changes and sedimentary processes in the catchment area of Lake Planina pri jezeru (1430 m a.s.l.) by using mineralogical, geochemical and palynological ...

ABSTRACT The detection of mineral deposits and their related geological structures is of great importance to the mining industry as structures (such as dykes and faults) can affect the safety, cost and efficiency of mining. With the goal of testing cost‐effective seismic methods for mineral exploration and mining, active and passive seismic experiments

Abstract Current climate change in the Arctic is unprecedented in the instrumental record, with profound consequences for the environment and landscape. In Arctic Sweden, aeolian sand dunes have been impacted by climatic changes since their initial formation after the retreat of the last glacial ice sheet.

Unraveling the central role of root morphology and anatomy in lodging of tef (Eragrostis tef)
Crop diversification is considered key to ensuring agricultural sustainability and food security. Tef (Eragrostis tef (Zucc.) Trotter) is a cereal crop grown mainly in Ethiopia, where it thrives in a wide range of environments, including stress‐prone habitats.

The "Extra-Solar Giant Planets" are Brown Dwarfs [PDF]
After an M, K, G, or F star forms, it magnetically compresses the infall dregs to produce a close in brown dwarf.

Automatic flower detection and phenology monitoring using time‐lapse cameras and deep learning
We present an automatized method for monitoring flower phenology of specific plant species trough full growing seasons and across geographical regions. The method couples image‐based monitoring of field plots with a dedicated convolutional neural network to detect and count flowers in the images, and returns information on flowering phenology at ...

Where to find over-massive brown dwarfs: new benchmark systems for binary evolution [PDF]
Under the right conditions brown dwarfs that gain enough mass late in their lives to cross the hydrogen burning limit will not turn into low-mass stars, but rather remain essentially brown dwarf-like. While these objects, called either beige dwarfs or over-massive brown dwarfs, may exist in principle, it remains unclear exactly how they would form ...
