Clear effects of population and sex but not rearing temperature on stress tolerance in a temperate butterfly

Oikos, EarlyView.
With temperatures rising globally due to climate change, an organism's survival depends both on its direct tolerance to rising temperatures and its tolerance to indirect effects of warming, such as resource shortage. Genetic background and phenotypic plasticity in the form of acclimation are known to affect stress tolerance, but much about genetic ...

Characterization of Enhanced UHMWPE‐Hap Composites Manufactured by Hot Pressing

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Illustration of the production and examination of prepared composite samples. ABSTRACT In the present study, a hip joint cup/liner material has been developed using ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) matrix material which is reinforced by hydroxyapatite (HAp) particles with the 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 wt.% using mechanical activation followed ...

Traceable Efficiency Determination of Large‐Area Perovskite on Silicon Tandem Modules—Insights From a Calibration Laboratories Perspective

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
A traceable efficiency determination and detailed characterization of a large‐area perovskite on silicon tandem module, which achieved a power conversion efficiency of 25%, was carried out using an LED‐based solar simulator. ABSTRACT As the perovskite on silicon solar cell technology strives towards commercialization, the need to produce large‐area ...

Flowering out of sync: Climate change alters the reproductive phenology of Terminalia paniculata in the Western Ghats of India

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how climate change impacts the plant life cycle is critical for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services. Our findings suggest that Terminalia paniculata Roth, a common tropical deciduous tree species in the Western Ghats, is now flowering and fruiting at more scattered times than it used to in the past.

Herbarium digitisation sheds light on historical distribution and drivers of population extinction of a peat bog specialist

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Biodiversity loss threatens ecosystem services and human well‐being. Understanding the extent and causes of changes in biodiversity over time can help protect species and their habitats. Herbaria house carefully documented and curated specimens collected by generations of botanists.
