Multimodal targets of (‐)‐α‐thujone mediating avoidance behavior of a stored‐products pest, Tribolium castaneum, in response to irritant stimuli

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
We identified four kinds of target molecules against (‐)‐α‐thujone associating avoidance behavior in Tribolium castaneum, indicating multimodality. Abstract BACKGROUND The reciprocal evolutionary processes among phytophagous insects and host plants involve host shift in the herbivorous insects in response to defense chemicals, such as plant‐derived ...

Landslide Susceptibility Mapping Considering Landslide Spatial Aggregation Using the Dual-Frequency Ratio Method: A Case Study on the Middle Reaches of the Tarim River Basin

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The phenomenon of landslide spatial aggregation is widespread in nature, which can affect the result of landslide susceptibility prediction (LSP). In order to eliminate the uncertainty caused by landslide spatial aggregation in an LSP study, researchers ...

EnKF and expectation‐maximization based parameter estimation of a convective gravity‐wave parameterization using Strateole 2 constant‐level balloon data

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
An offline methodology is applied to estimate parameters of a convective gravity‐wave scheme using momentum flux (MF) observations from constant‐level balloons (left panels: pdfs of east and west MFs in green from observations and black from EnKF). The approach integrates an ensemble Kalman filter with an expectation‐maximization algorithm and permits ...

Dehydration-induced supralithostatic fluid overpressure in metapelites from Northern Korea

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Orogenic reconstructions typically assume lithostatic pressure, which can be converted into burial depth. Deviations from lithostatic conditions, such as fluid overpressure, are recognized but poorly understood in natural rocks.

Three-Dimensional Deformation Field Inversion Based on Fused Monitoring Data of GNSS and InSAR: A Case Study of Jinchuan No. 2 Mining Area

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Surface rock movement can lead to geological or environmental problems such as surface subsidence, ground fissure development, and deformation of engineering structures, and its evolution process exhibits significant spatiotemporal heterogeneity ...

Ontologies for Sustainability: Theoretical Challenges

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The lack of sustainable practices in key sectors of human societies is a global concern, posing threats for the whole planet. This paper provides the first review of ontologies for sustainability efforts, outlining their roles in assessing and advancing such efforts. Section 2 outlines three major challenges associated with sustainability: (1)

Heavy iron isotopes in arc rocks reveal anoxic sediment recycling in subduction zones

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The formation mechanism of arc mafic rocks with heavy iron isotope signature remains enigmatic. Here we report Fe-Mo-Sr-Nd-Hf isotope data of arc rocks from Northeast China. The studied arc rocks have δ56Fe values (0.08‰ to 0.23‰) comparable to or higher

Why theory matters for causal inference? Rethinking endogeneity in entrepreneurship research

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Endogeneity in entrepreneurship research is often treated as a statistical complication addressable through advanced econometric tools. This commentary argues that such an approach overlooks a deeper issue: endogeneity is conceptual before it is statistical.

Zinc isotopes record lunar magmatic outgassing and surface processes in different Chang’e-5 samples

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The Moon is depleted in moderately volatile elements compared with Earth, likely due to high-temperature processes during its formation. How this depletion evolved and the role of later surface processes remain unclear. Here we report high-precision zinc

Illuhmannating Technological Innovation Systems: Towards a Systems Perspective

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Technological Innovation Systems framework operates from an economic perspective, investigating the generation, diffusion and utilization of a specific technology within a particular institutional infrastructure. Emerging from innovation sciences, the TIS framework inherited methodological individualism as the micro‐level approach to ...
