Summary Recent studies have shown a linear relationship between solar‐induced Chl fluorescence (SIF) and gross primary productivity (GPP) at large scales. However, this relationship diverges at finer leaf scales, particularly in tropical forests with complex canopy structures.

Provocative Vocatives: Slurs as Expressives
ABSTRACT Fifty years ago, Zwicky demonstrated the slur‐neutral counterpart vocative divergence thesis (SNCVD):Slurs occur freely as vocatives. Neutral counterparts do not. In this article, I craft a novel problem for theories of slurs. The Vocatives Problem is the challenge to explain the SNCVD. I argue that there are two strong solutions.

Combining NMR– and LC–HRMS–based metabolomics reveals that root and leaf metabolic changes in boxwood predated by box–tree moth occur at the same density of predation for both central and specialized metabolisms. Abstract The recent biological invasion of box tree moth Cydalima perspectalis on Buxus trees has a major impact on European boxwood stands ...

PAVITS: Exploring Prosody-aware VITS for End-to-End Emotional Voice Conversion [PDF]
In this paper, we propose Prosody-aware VITS (PAVITS) for emotional voice conversion (EVC), aiming to achieve two major objectives of EVC: high content naturalness and high emotional naturalness, which are crucial for meeting the demands of human perception.

TRAPPED BETWEEN CASE AND NUMBER. A TYPOLOGY OF ADNUMERATIVE FORMS†
In this paper, I study the nature of adnumerative or numerative forms; i.e. morphologically dedicated inflectional forms that can only be used with numerals or quantifiers (e.g. Russian dva časá ‘two o'clock’ vs. [gen sg] čása). Adnumeratives are cross‐linguistically very rare; yet they raise some interesting theoretical discussions. This work is based

Towards Expressive Zero-Shot Speech Synthesis with Hierarchical Prosody Modeling [PDF]
Recent research in zero-shot speech synthesis has made significant progress in speaker similarity. However, current efforts focus on timbre generalization rather than prosody modeling, which results in limited naturalness and expressiveness. To address this, we introduce a novel speech synthesis model trained on large-scale datasets, including both ...

A case study in underspecification of UG: External Pair Merge of v and T
Abstract Previous works have explored the options of Pair Merging R and v as well as T and C, respectively, yielding R‐v and T‐C with various consequences. This paper proposes that v and T can yield the complex head v‐T, an amalgam formed by external Pair Merge.
