Hyperdominant Trees Reveal Savanna Vulnerability Under Climate Change. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
The Brazilian Cerrado's forest structure relies disproportionately on just 30 hyperdominant tree species, which represent 50% of all individuals despite accounting for only 2% of species richness. This study evaluates their vulnerability under climate change scenarios for 2100.

Self-dialogue with age-congruent versus age-incongruent avatars in immersive virtual reality [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Perspective-taking in virtual reality has been exploited in different areas, including using avatars for self-dialogue. We explore the effect of performing self-dialogue in VR, alternating between a non-lookalike ‘self’ and an age-congruent or age ...

Osteohistological characterization of notosuchian osteoderms: Evidence for an overlying thick leathery layer of skin. [PDF]

J Morphol, 2023
The perpendicular insertion of Sharpey's fibers in the external cortex suggests the presence of a thick leathery skin layer overlying notosuchian osteoderms. Although intramembranous ossification is the main process involved in the development of crocodyliform osteoderms, we reported a case of metaplastic development.
