Winegrowers' Perceptions and Adoption of Sustainable Soil Management Practices and Technologies: A Case Study in Piedmont, Italy

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is crucial for human survival but is threatened by erosion and contamination. Farmers play a pivotal role in soil conservation, thus, understanding what influences their decisions is crucial. The IN‐GEST SOIL project aimed to mitigate soil erosion and improve soil and vine quality in Piedmont vineyards, NW Italy.

Review of methods used for identification of biothreat agents in environmental protection and human health aspects

open access: yesAnnals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2014
Modern threats of bioterrorism force the need to develop methods for rapid and accurate dentification of dangerous biological agents. Currently, there are many types of methods used in this field of studies that are based on immunological or genetic ...

Rapid and quantitative phage susceptibility test by ramanome

open access: yesmLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial resistance poses an escalating global threat, renewing interest in bacteriophage therapy as a precision alternative to antibiotics. However, clinical translation remains hindered by the lack of rapid and quantitative phage susceptibility testing (PST) platforms capable of evaluating host range, infection potency, and effective ...

Dose–response modelling uncovers compound‐specific inhibitory effects of host defence volatiles on mountain pine beetle fungal symbionts

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Host defence volatiles inhibit mountain pine beetle fungal symbionts in a compound‐ and enantiomer‐specific manner, with distinct dose–response profiles that reveal the multitarget chemical defences of beetle–fungi symbiotes. Abstract BACKGROUND The mountain pine beetle relies on symbiotic fungi to overcome host tree defences, yet these fungi must ...

Redefining Optimal Coverage Path Planning for FLS‐Equipped AUVs With Deep Reinforcement Learning

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) have emerged as indispensable tools for a variety of subsea tasks, from habitat monitoring and seabed mapping to infrastructure inspection and mine countermeasures. A fundamental challenge in this field is Coverage Path Planning (CPP), the problem of ensuring complete and efficient area coverage.

How Tariffs Shape Trade‐Embodied Emissions in the European Union: Sectoral Heterogeneity in Final Demand

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the environmental implications of tariffs on greenhouse gas emissions embodied in extra‐European Union imports consumed by domestic final demand in the EU. Using a multidimensional country‐sector‐year framework, the study investigates whether tariff changes are associated with variations in trade‐embodied emissions and ...

A review of active noise and vibration control in road vehicles

open access: yes, 2008
Active control works by destructive interference between the original sound or vibration field in the vehicle and that generated by a controllable, secondary, source. Physical limitations generally confine its usefulness to low frequencies and so that it

Autonomous and Communicative Microcapsule Systems for Life‐Like Homeostatic pH Regulation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A dual‐microcapsule system mimicking biological homeostasis is developed, enabling programmable pH oscillations through antagonistic enzymatic feedback. Monodisperse urease and esterase capsules, produced via hybrid‐junction 3D‐printed microfluidics with epoxy‐modified channels, exhibit adaptive shell permeability and inter‐capsule communication.

Crystal Engineering of Chelating Hybrid Ultramicroporous Materials via Pillar Modulation for Energy‐Efficient Acetylene Separation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A new chelating hybrid ultramicroporous material platform is developed using anion modulation to fine‐tune pore chemistry and binding environments, enabling selective C2H2 capture over CO2. One of them, NbOFFIVE‐enmepy‐Zn, exhibits multiple binding interactions for C2H2 vs.
