To what extent is coastal wetland biodiversity endangered by climate change? How can we boost the resilience of coastal ecosystems? [PDF]

open access: yesNature Conservation
Global projections indicate that between 20% and 90% of current coastal wetland areas may be lost due to sea-level rise (SLR), depending on the severity of the scenario. Warming, acidification and other global change stressors such as eutrophication also

Transient Terahertz Oscillations During Photoinduced Polarization Topology Reconfiguration in Ferroelectric Superlattices

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Terahertz resonances in crystalline heterostructures could close a spectral gap between conventional electronics and photonics while opening new windows on non‐equilibrium lattice dynamics. Femtosecond optical screening of the depolarization field in epitaxial PbTiO3/SrTiO3 superlattices launches a collective polar mode that oscillates near 1 THz and ...

An economist looks at ecosystem services [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This chapter lists ecosystem services and discusses what techniques can be applied in order to assess their economic value. The last five decades witnessed enormous progress in developing valuation techniques applied to non-market goods (i.e.

Understanding farmer preferences and trade-offs for adopting sustainable crop production: a systematic review

open access: yesDiscover Sustainability
Despite the potential benefits of sustainable agricultural practices and their positive effects on the environment and sustainable food systems, adoption levels have remained relatively low. To better understand the underlying issues, this study conducts

Forecasting Root Rot Disease through Predictive Microbial Functional Profiling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Predicting soil‐borne disease moves beyond observation with a framework that elevates microbial functional genes into reliable forecasting biomarkers. By coupling targeted qPCR assays for core stress‐response genes with machine learning, this method detects root rot risks in pre‐symptomatic soils with over 80% accuracy.

Field‐based individual plant phenotyping of herbaceous species by unmanned aerial vehicle

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Recent advances in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAVs) and image processing have made high‐throughput field phenotyping possible at plot/canopy level in the mass grown experiment. Such techniques are now expected to be used for individual level phenotyping in

Multimodal Wearable Biosensing Meets Multidomain AI: A Pathway to Decentralized Healthcare

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Multimodal biosensing meets multidomain AI. Wearable biosensors capture complementary biochemical and physiological signals, while cross‐device, population‐aware learning aligns noisy, heterogeneous streams. This Review distills key sensing modalities, fusion and calibration strategies, and privacy‐preserving deployment pathways that transform ...

What Are Ecosystem Services? [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper advocates consistently defined units of account to measure the contributions of nature to human welfare. We argue that such units have to date not been defined by environmental accounting advocates and that the term “ecosystem services” is too

Titanium ions promote tomato growth and increase stress resistance

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Background Titanium ions can significantly promote plant growth and increase crop yield, yet the underlying mechanism remains an enigma. This study investigated the effect of titanium ions on tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) by foliar spraying and root ...
