Populus tremuloides seedling establishment: An underexplored vector for forest type conversion after multiple disturbances [PDF]
, 2017 Ecosystem resilience to climate change is contingent on post-disturbance plant regeneration. Sparse gymnosperm regeneration has been documented in subalpine forests following recent wildfires and compounded disturbances, both of which are increasing.

Modeling vegetation fires and fire emissions [PDF]
, 2013 Fire is the most important ecological and forest disturbance agent worldwide, is a major way by which carbon is transferred from the land to the atmosphere, and is globally a significant source of greenhouse gases and aerosols. Wildfires across all major biome types globally consume about 5% of net annual terrestrial primary production per annum, and ...

Fire–diffuse–fire model of dynamics of intracellular calcium waves [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999 When Ca 2+ is released from internal stores in living cells, the resulting wave of increased concentration can travel without deformation (continuous propagation) or with burst-like behavior (saltatory propagation).

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Coating the standard polypropylene separator with a porous red phosphorous nanosheet greatly improves cycling performance in Li electrode cells. The phosphorus‐based surface chemistry deactivates electrolyte solvent decomposition and enhances the cleavage of F‐containing salt, resulting in an inorganic‐dominated electrolyte interphase (SEI) composition

Efficient method for probabilistic fire safety engineering [PDF]
, 2016 A growing interest exists within the fire safety community for the topics of risk and reliability. However, due to the high computational requirements of most calculation models, traditional Monte Carlo methods are in general too time consuming for ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The dielectric properties of clays are studied on the level of individual monolayers and functional double stacks. The material breakdown characteristics and charge storage performance are analyzed. For illustration, a defined charge pattern representing a cuneiform character is produced, written into a microscopic clay tile, referencing the origins of

Pulse-coupled resonate-and-fire models [PDF]
, 2004 We analyze two pulse-coupled resonate-and-fire neurons. Numerical simulation reveals that an anti-phase state is an attractor of this model. We can analytically explain the stability of anti-phase states by means of a return map of firing times, which we

Wildland Fire Behaviour Case Studies and Fuel Models for Landscape‐Scale Fire Modeling [PDF]
Journal of Combustion, 2011 This work presents the extension of a physical model for the spreading of surface fire at landscape scale. In previous work, the model was validated at laboratory scale for fire spreading across litters. The model was then modified to consider the structure of actual vegetation and was included in the wildland fire calculation system Forefire that ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into building structures introduces distinct fire risks with critical implications for occupant safety. This review examines the key fire hazards associated with PV implementation and explores mitigation strategies, including flame‐retardant additives.
