Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The US hemp market is a new and nascent industry that has been devoid of research for about half a century. This study examined the effects of exogenous shock on price at each phase of the value chain—Farm (hemp biomass), and its impact on prices at other phases of the value chain—Intermediary Processor (crude cannabidiol hemp) and Final ...

Redirecting Excited‐State Proton Transfer Through Supramolecular Polymerization in Nanoconfinement
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Supramolecular confinement redirects the excited‐state proton transfer pathway of an amphoteric emitter. In water, the molecule undergoes ESPD, whereas co‐assembly with γ‐cyclodextrin forms nanotubes that template slip‐stacked emitter pairs and enable ESIMPT. Structural and photophysical characterization of the assemblies shows that the preorganization

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.Electrospinning allows the fabrication of fibrous 3D cotton‐wool‐like scaffolds for tissue engineering. Optimizing this process traditionally relies on trial‐and‐error approaches, and artificial intelligence (AI)‐based tools can support it, with the prediction of fiber properties. This work uses machine learning to classify and predict the structure of

Dynamic and Stochastic Structures of U.S. Cotton Exports and Mill Demand [PDF]
This study employs a structural time-series method to model and estimate U.S. cotton exports and mill use. The results show that the stochastic process governing cotton export fluctuations is transitory, while the process pertaining to mill use has ...
