Post‐Processed CMIP6 Climate Projections for Hydro‐Environmental Risk Assessment in the Middle East and Central Asia

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Estimating water resources is important for regional climate impact analysis and risk estimation. The Middle East and Central Asia have largely reached the limit of sustainably usable water across their river basins and ecosystems. Strategies designed to mitigate environmental risks require a reliable estimation of water availability trends.

Reliable labels, uncertain meaning: Classifications for medial meniscus posterior root tears lack consensus and arthroscopy‐anchored accuracy

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Multiple, nonharmonised classification systems exist for posterior medial meniscus root tears (PMMRT), yet their diagnostic accuracy and observer reliability remain unclear. This PRISMA‐2020 systematic review aimed to catalogue available PMMRT classifications and to summarise accuracy and reliability metrics.

Gardens in the Air: A Reexamination of the Ottoman Tulip Age

, 2013
Scholars have long considered the “Tulip Age” to be a sort of Ottoman renaissance—a golden age initiated by the 1718 Treaty of Passarowitz and lasted until the Anti-Tulip Rebellion in 1730.

The effects of single versus successive warm summers on an intertidal community

Oikos, EarlyView.
To accurately predict how organisms and ecological communities will respond to future conditions caused by climate change, we must consider the temporal dynamics of environmental stressors, including the effects of repeated exposures to stress. We performed a two‐year passive thermal manipulation in coastal British Columbia, Canada to determine how ...

The Cinderella tree, Quillaja saponaria – A soap story

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Our current understanding of plants has been shaped by the entwining of different cultures. The Chilean soapbark tree, traditionally valued as a source of natural soap, was shown by serendipitous research in France in the 1900s to produce compounds that can boost the immune response to vaccines.

UCanWBGT: urban street canyon heat stress calculation for weather and climate models

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This work introduces UCanWBGT, a new model to calculate wet‐bulb globe temperature in an urban environment, suitable for use with weather and climate model data. We present the model, then verify its performance against observations made in the streets of Paris during heatwave conditions.

Assimilation of solar‐induced fluorescence satellite observations in the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts integrated forecast system

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the potential of the assimilation of satellite solar‐induced fluorescence (SIF) retrievals at eight‐day and 0.1° resolutions in the integrated forecast system (IFS), developed at the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), at global scale, to provide a more realistic representation of the vegetation temporal ...

MXene‐Based Electromagnetic Attenuation Materials in Microwave and Terahertz Bands

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MXenes exhibit considerable potential for developing high‐performance electromagnetic (EM) shielding and absorption materials operating across microwave and terahertz frequencies, due to their tunable surface chemistry and exceptional charge carrier transport properties.

CONCERT: A Modular Reconfigurable Robot for Construction

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents CONCERT, a fully reconfigurable modular collaborative robot (cobot) for multiple on‐site operations in a construction site. CONCERT has been designed to support human activities in construction sites by leveraging two main characteristics: high‐power density motors and modularity. In this way, the robot is able to perform a
