Rearrangement Towards Stability: Plastic Shakedown in Granular Materials Under Thermal Cycles

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Granular materials are routinely subjected to thermal cycling due to natural and anthropogenic phenomena. Despite the ubiquity of this occurrence and its relevance for science, engineering, and technology, the long‐term thermo‐mechanical response of granular materials to repeated heating and cooling remains poorly understood.

Trait‐associated pathway links plant diversity to litterfall phenology in a seasonally dry tropical forest

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Phenology plays a central role in regulating energy flow and nutrient cycling, yet remains insufficiently integrated into biodiversity–ecosystem functioning frameworks. This gap is especially relevant in strongly seasonal systems, where community‐wide synchrony in leaf litterfall may arise from either temporal niche differentiation among species or ...

Plurality in transformative change: Three co‐created pathways toward nature‐positive Europe(s)

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The accelerating decline of biodiversity necessitates transformative change to protect nature and society, which requires innovative actions and governance strategies. This paper advances the conceptual understanding of transformative change by identifying patterns of change in three co‐created transformative pathways for a nature‐positive ...

Vegetated dunes and barchan dune fields

open access: yes, 2007
Desertifikation steht in enger Beziehung zu aeolischem Sedimenttransport, einschliesslich der Bildung, Evolution und Bewegung von Sanddünen. Sandduenen bewegen sich in riesigen Clustern von tausenden von Dünen unter einer komplexen internen Dynamik, welche ihre Größe und räumliche Verteilung bestimmt.

Biodiversity and bird welfare in evaluation of tourism impact and sustainability in arid environment

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Nature‐based tourism is rapidly expanding in arid regions, raising concerns about its long‐term sustainability and potential impacts on biodiversity. However, empirical evidence evaluating its effects on both species diversity and animal welfare remains limited.

Reconstruction of atmospheric neutrinos in DUNE’s horizontal-drift far-detector module

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
This paper reports on the capabilities in reconstructing and identifying atmospheric neutrino interactions in one of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment’s (DUNE) far detector modules, a liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) with horizontal ...

Chemical diversity and phylogenetic insights into Hawaiian ʻākia (Wikstroemia) species used in traditional fishing practices

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional fishing with plant‐based piscicides is a global practice in decline, facing increasing restrictions. We investigated the chemical diversity of endemic Wikstroemia species historically used to stun or poison fish in Hawaiʻi. Using 1‐H‐NMR, principal component analysis, targeted HPLC, and target‐capture sequencing, we characterized compounds ...

Experimental Study of the Effect of Ripple Bedforms with Fine and Coarse Sediments on Bed Shear Stress

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2022
Bed shear stress is one of the most important hydraulic parameters to determine the amount of bed and suspended load and the bed and bank scouring in rivers. Bed shear stress depends on bedforms (ripples, dunes, and anti-dunes) in alluvial rivers.
