Decades of Enclosure Protection Exert Composite Effects on Grassland Grasshopper Communities

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Decades of enclosure protection have altered grasshopper community structure, with species‐specific effects on population dynamics. For the low‐mobility grasshopper Chorthippus fallax, abundance did not differ strongly between exclosure‐protected and overgrazed areas, but its egg development duration was longer in exclosures. The two C.

Idle Nodes Detection and Reactivation-Aware-Buffer Management in Delay-Tolerant Network Using IEMATA and SPKO

IEEE Access
In Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs), buffer management is crucial for optimized message delivery by focusing on message storage and prioritization. However, existing studies do not determine the state of a node, leading to buffer space wastage.

Aligning Transnational due Diligence: The EU Deforestation Regulation and Brazil's Fragmented Beef Governance

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transnational due diligence regulations, such as the European Union Regulation on Deforestation‐Free Products (EUDR), are reshaping sustainability governance by transforming voluntary norms into binding global rules. Yet, their effectiveness depends on how well they align with domestic governance systems and on the power asymmetries that ...

The developmental trajectories of working memory updating from early childhood to adolescence: A meta‐analysis

British Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Working memory updating is a crucial cognitive function for learning and academic achievement that develops significantly throughout childhood and adolescence. Despite the varieties of existing tasks to measure children's working memory updating, its overall developmental trajectory and task‐specific developmental patterns remain inadequately ...

LeafFit: Plant Assets Creation from 3D Gaussian Splatting

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose LeafFit, a pipeline that converts 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) of individual plants into editable, instanced mesh assets. While 3DGS faithfully captures complex foliage, its high memory footprint and lack of mesh topology make it incompatible with traditional game production workflows. We address this by leveraging the repetition of

Stochastic Pairwise MIS for Unbiased Large‐Kernel Reuse in Real‐Time

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Spatiotemporal resampling methods such as ReSTIR decrease noise in Monte Carlo rendering of dynamic content by reusing paths across frames and pixels. Standard ReSTIR reuses spatially from a small number of randomly selected neighbors. This reuse suffers when few neighbors contain contributing samples, reducing quality toward that of the ...

NAADF: Globally Illuminated Voxel Worlds Accelerated with Nested Axis‐Aligned Distance Fields

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Achieving realistic rendering of 3D scenes in real time using path tracing is challenging due to the high sample count required, with ray tracing as the bottleneck. Focusing on voxels as a geometry representation offers significant opportunities for optimizations, especially for tracing the rays, but also for computing the samples.
