A low‐cost, automated, and adaptable system for field‐based measurement of pCO2, pCH4, and associated variables in groundwater

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract The Groundwater Automated Chemical Examiner (GrACE) is an automated analytical system of integrated sensors for the field‐based measurement of chemical and physical properties of groundwater. The GrACE system was designed to explore parameters influencing the dissolved concentrations of carbon dioxide (pCO2) and methane (pCH4) in groundwater ...

A finite simulation method in a non-deterministic call-by-need calculus with letrec, constructors and case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The paper proposes a variation of simulation for checking and proving contextual equivalence in a non-deterministic call-by-need lambda-calculus with constructors, case, seq, and a letrec with cyclic dependencies. It also proposes a novel method to prove

Farmers' participation in European Regional Platforms on Coexistence between People and Large Carnivores: Perceived conflict, stakeholder interaction, and evaluation of participatory processes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Although there have been several initiatives to establish and support participatory processes on large carnivores based on multi‐stakeholder governance at the regional level in Europe, empirical evidence for their evaluation is still lacking. We employed a survey, which was administered to farmers and other stakeholder groups (e.g.

How on-site analytical techniques can help mining waste recovery and valorisation

open access: yesDiscover Civil Engineering
Mining waste recovery and valorisation is a major challenge because mining generates very large volumes of waste, and because part of this waste has to be considered a resource for the present and future needs of minerals, provided that the waste ...

A monomeric envelope glycoprotein cytoplasmic tail is sufficient for HIV-1 Gag lattice trapping and incorporation

open access: yesJournal of Virology
To become infectious, assembling enveloped viruses must acquire viral glycoproteins to mediate downstream infection events. Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) envelope glycoproteins (Env) are well characterized to function as trimers for membrane ...

Getting hands‐on with hedges—Does experiential engagement in plant science experiments affect secondary school pupils' environmental perceptions?

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
In towns and cities, vegetation growing around streets and buildings can lessen the risks posed by extreme heat, rainfall and poor air quality. However, the urban public (and particularly, youth) have limited awareness of these environmental benefits.

Efficient and Adaptive Autonomous Guidance and Control of Planetary Rover With Improved Traction Controller and Dynamic Cost Map

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Planetary exploration is rapidly gaining importance within the space research community. Autonomous locomotion of rovers requires consideration of several mobility aspects to ensure safety, including avoiding hazardous areas that can cause the robot to become immobilized in soft soil or damaged in sharp terrains.

Environmental, Social, and Governance Practices and Microfinance Institutions Sustainability: A Global Study

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices influence the financial sustainability of microfinance institutions (MFIs) worldwide. Drawing inspiration from Adam Smith's perspectives on moral sentiments and institutional cohesion, the research examines whether strategic integration of ESG dimensions can ...

Host defense alteration in Caenorhabditis elegans after evolution under ionizing radiation

open access: yesBMC Ecology and Evolution
Background Adaptation to a stressor can lead to costs on other traits. These costs play an unavoidable role on fitness and influence the evolutionary trajectory of a population.
