Climate and political effects on agriculture: Empirical evidence from SSA

International Studies of Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract The most of Sub‐Saharan African (SSA) countries have been affected by climate change and food insecurity problems due to the reduction of production and productivity of cereal crops in the continent. The purpose of this research was to examine the short‐run and long‐run effects of climate change on agricultural productivity in 24 selected SSA ...

At the far end of everything: A likely Ahrensburgian presence in the far north of the Isle of Skye, Scotland

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A Late Upper Paleolithic (LUP) site containing Ahrensburgian‐type stone tools has been discovered at South Cuidrach, Isle of Skye, Scotland. Together with a group of intertidal stone circular alignments also recently discovered on the island, this new evidence for the occupation of northern Scotland also represents the most northerly LUP site ...

Detecting Iron Oxidation States in Liquids with the VOXES Bragg Spectrometer [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Determining the oxidation states of metals assumes great importance in various applications because a variation in the oxidation number can drastically influence the material properties. As an example, this becomes evident in edible liquids like wine and oil, where a change in the oxidation states of the contained metals can significantly modify both ...

Fingerprinting of Semi‐Refined Flaxseed Protein Using Raman Spectroscopy and Multivariate Analysis: Pulsed Electric Field (PEF)‐Assisted Alkali and Aqueous Extraction Methods Alter Composition and Protein Conformation

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Structural changes in semi‐refined flaxseed protein extracts were effectively characterized using Raman spectroscopy coupled with PCA. The application of higher PEF energy enhanced hydrophobic interactions among aliphatic amino acids, while at lower PEF inputs, the extraction medium dictated secondary structure formation: α‐helices favored in aqueous ...

Soft Pneumatic Gelatin Actuator for Edible Robotics [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
We present a fully edible pneumatic actuator based on gelatin-glycerol composite. The actuator is monolithic, fabricated via a molding process, and measures 90 mm in length, 20 mm in width, and 17 mm in thickness. Thanks to the composite mechanical characteristics similar to those of silicone elastomers, the actuator exhibits a bending angle of 170.3 {\
