Air-pressure response characteristics and instability precursor identification of vacuum-suction karst collapse

Zhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao
Karst ground collapse is highly sudden, concealed, and difficult to monitor and warn against. This study analyzes the air-pressure response and precursory characteristics of covered karst collapse under vacuum-suction conditions.

Determinants of undergraduate bioscience engagement: Validating attendance barriers and classroom spatial behaviour across institutions

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Student engagement extends beyond simple attendance. Across 891 bioscience students from three universities, attendance behaviour was associated mainly with structural influences, whereas classroom spatial behaviour reflected affective and sensory factors.

Design and evaluation of FEBS Education and Training Academy module – Integrating generative artificial intelligence into life‐science education

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Life‐science educators from 14 countries redesigned their own course materials with generative AI in a three‐session, pedagogy‐first FEBS Education and Training Academy workshop built on PICRAT. Among 12 matched respondents, four more reported high confidence in each of five practical domains, and 10 of 13 reported implementing at least one idea ...

Recurrent Heatwaves Slow Down the Recovery of a Phytoplankton Community

Ecology and Evolution
Heatwaves (HWs) are predicted to increase in frequency and severity due to climate change. Yet, there is limited information about how ecological resilience of aquatic communities is going to be impacted by recurrent HWs.

Hydrogel platforms for 3D cardiac tissue engineering and fibrotic disease modelling

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Hydrogel‐based cardiac tissue models are advancing our understanding of heart health and disease. By incorporating electrical conductivity, aligned structures, and tunable mechanical properties, these platforms better replicate the complex environment of native heart tissue.

Five‐Year Outcomes of Laparoscopic Sphincter‐Preserving Surgery for Rectal Cancer: A Prospective Study in Elderly Vietnamese Patients

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This prospective study demonstrates that laparoscopic sphincter‐preserving surgery is feasible for elderly patients. While overall survival reaches 70% at 5 years, advanced T‐stage and the omission of neoadjuvant therapy significantly drive recurrence, highlighting the need for personalized geriatric protocols despite logistical challenges.

Assessing effectiveness of critical slowing down in a non-idealised timeseries of the Greenland ice sheet in a paleo-climate model run

Journal of Physics: Complexity
Critical slowing down (CSD) is a widely used indicator of resilience loss in systems approaching an abrupt transition. In this study, we analyse a paleo-climate run of the Parallel Ice Sheet Model that shows an abrupt collapse of the Baffin Bay ice shelf,

Critical Slowing Down and Defect Formation

, 1999
The formation of topological defects in a second order phase transition in the early universe is an out-of-equilibrium process. Condensed matter experiments seem to support Zurek's mechanism, in which the freezing of thermal fluctuations close to the critical point (critical slowing down) plays a crucial role.

Slowing-down reduction and Possible Reversal Trend of Tropospheric NO2 over China during 2016 to 2019

, 2019
Atmospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO2) over China at national level has been kept reducing since 2011 as seen from both satellite observations, ground-based measurements and bottom-up emission inventory.
