Mitigating Health Disparities Through Empathetic Policymaking During Times of Crisis

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic greatly exacerbated the existing disparities and inequities in health and healthcare among historically marginalized populations. Today, these impacts still echo. These persistent structured inequities erode the public's trust in government, lead to failure in public policies, and result in worse health consequences ...

Application of coherent lidar technique: Water vapor DIAL and data assimilation for three-dimensional wind flow reconstructions [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
We recently expanded the wind sensing coherent Doppler lidar (CDL) technologies to the coherent differential absorption lidar (DIAL) and data assimilation with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation.

Molecular Weight–Dependent Reinforcement of Biobased Aromatic Thermoplastic Polyurethanes Using Vegetable Oil Crosslinkers

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Strategy for biobased aromatic thermoplastic polyurethanes. ABSTRACT The transition toward sustainable thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) is a key challenge for reducing the carbon footprint for a wide range of applications, from industrial to transportation, including advanced applications such as 3D‐printed sensors and soft actuators.

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv0132c Gene Product Mtb‐FGD2 Can Act as an F420‐Dependent Glucose Dehydrogenase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of the cell envelope‐associated Rv0132c/FGD2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis has long been a subject of debate. Importantly, FGD2 is found only in pathogenic mycobacteria, making it a potential drug target. While some suggest it functions as a glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, others propose it acts instead as an F420‐dependent ...

Seedling resistance and chemical defenses against Psylliodes chrysocephala: the roles of seed age and sinapinic acid in Sinapis alba and Brassica napus

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is a major pest of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus). We tested B. napus and Sinapis alba seedlings for feeding resistance and underlying chemical defenses. S. alba was least damaged, while metabolite profiles revealed resistance‐linked compounds, highlighting breeding potential for insect ...

Haldane Sashes in Quantum Hall Spectra

, 2010
We show that the low-temperature sash features in the lowest Landau-level (LLL) tunneling density-of-states (TDOS) recently discovered by Dial and Ashoori are intimately related to the discrete Haldane-pseudopotential interaction energy scales that ...

Linguistic Variation across Instructional Segments in International Teaching Assistants' Discourse: A Corpus‐Based Analysis

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates internal linguistic variation in the instructional discourse of international teaching assistants (ITAs) by segmenting their mini‐lecture performances into four discourse types: introduction, lecture, conclusion, and audience interaction.

An improved BRISK‐FREAK‐based algorithm combined with LSD algorithm for complex pointer meter identification

IET Science, Measurement & Technology
To locate and read the complex pointer meter dial for the images with uneven illumination, blurred dial, and tilted dial, this paper firstly proposes an improved BRISK‐FREAK algorithm for dial position. Then, combined with the Line Segment Detector (LSD)

Latent Heat Fluxes over Complex Terrain Measured by Airborne Water Vapour and Wind Lidars [PDF]

, 2010
The combination of a water vapour and a wind lidar on an aircraft is an interesting new tool that allows to measure latent heat flux profiles and to portray the small- to mesoscale variability beneath the aircraft trajectory with high accuracy and ...
