Combining the Underwater Vision Profiler 6 with sediment traps to measure in situ velocity of marine particles

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Particles sinking from the surface to the deep ocean play a key role in the biological carbon pump, whose efficiency depends partly on sinking velocities. Over the last decade, in situ imaging has enabled critical advances in our understanding of particle dynamics in the ocean.

Fractional Moment Theory for Anomalous Transport: A Unified Framework for Lévy Flights, Fractals, and Complex Dynamical Systems

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We develop a unified mathematical framework extending classical moment theory from discrete integer orders to a continuous spectrum of real orders f>0$$ f>0 $$, providing a systematic statistical characterization of complex systems exhibiting power‐law behavior.

Population recovery of an endangered macaw enhances long‐distance seed dispersal via stomatochory

Oikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal by large, mobile vertebrates plays a key role in shaping plant spatial dynamics and community structure. However, how variation in animal population size influences the magnitude and spatial scale of seed dispersal remains poorly understood.

Polylactide/Graphene Nanoplatelet Composites for Advanced Functional Applications

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Polylactide/Graphene nanoplatelet composites for advanced functional applications. ABSTRACT This study investigates the structure–property relationships of polylactide (PLA) nanocomposites containing graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) and trimellitic anhydride‐modified GNPs (TMA‐GNP).

On the compatibility of single‐scan terrestrial LiDAR with digital photogrammetry and field inventory metrics of vegetation structure in forest and agroforestry landscapes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The single‐scan approach to terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and the self‐terrain‐normalized form of drone‐based digital aerial photogrammetry (DAP) offer practical options for rapid assessment of the vegetation structure in tropical landscapes.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Analysis of small‐angle scattering data of interacting ellipsoids using pair distance distribution functions

Journal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
Pair distance distribution functions of interacting ellipsoidal particles can be hard to interpret. This difficulty can be circumvented partially by the generalized indirect Fourier transformation.Pair distance distribution functions (PDDFs) similar to those obtained by indirect Fourier transformation of small‐angle scattering data from interacting ...

Renormalization techniques for inflation systems and some of their applications

Acta Crystallographica Section A, EarlyView.
In this work, renormalization methods for quantities related to the diffraction of inflation systems are surveyed.Exact renormalization techniques are important and powerful, particularly for inflation‐generated systems. We review recent results in this direction.
