Abstract Introduction Novel ecosystems, where environmental conditions have been fundamentally altered from a historic norm, require nontraditional approaches to restoration. Suisun Marsh, located within California's San Francisco Estuary (SFE), is a novel, brackish water wetland complex, where managers have begun restoring tidal connectivity to ...

Long-Term Trends in Summertime Habitat Suitability for Delta Smelt, Hypomesus transpacificus
The biological productivity of river-dominated estuaries is affected strongly by variation in freshwater inflow, which affects nursery habitat quality. Previous research has shown this is generally true in the upper San Francisco Estuary, California, USA;

High‐Dimensional Cumulative Sum Control Charts for Industrial Measurement Systems
ABSTRACT High dimensional sensing in modern factories and energy assets produces thousands of correlated signals. Detecting small process shifts is challenging because many classical multivariate charts lose power or become unstable. We present two cumulative sum procedures for two sample monitoring that remain effective when the number of variables is

Abstract As the transition toward carbon neutrality accelerates, platinum group metals (PGMs) have emerged as indispensable resources for the low‐carbon transformation. However, the supply of this PGM supply chain is very concentrated, with 99% of primary production coming from South Africa and Russia. This study employs dynamic material flow analysis (

The present study investigates recycling of NiTi shape memory alloys via vacuum induction melting. An ingot was synthesized from elemental Ni and Ti and subjected to three subsequent remelting cycles. Remelting increases process durations and impurity levels and adversely affects microstructures and functional properties.
