The neural basis of unwanted thoughts during resting state. [PDF]
, 2013 Human beings are constantly engaged in thought. Sometimes thoughts occur repetitively and can become distressing. Up to now the neural bases of these intrusive or unwanted thoughts is largely unexplored.

Mesoporous Carbon Thin Films with Large Mesopores as Model Material for Electrochemical Applications
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Mesoporous carbon thin films possessing 70 nm mesopores are prepared on titanium substrates by soft templating of resol resins with a self‐synthesized poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(hexyl acrylate) block copolymer. A strategy to avoid corrosion of the metal substrate is presented, and the films are extensively characterized in terms of morphology ...

Trait concepts, categories, and databases in soil invertebrate ecology – ordering the mess
Soil OrganismsThe trait-based approach is increasingly used for soil invertebrates. Complementary to the taxonomy based approach, the trait-based approach can provide a more mechanistic understanding of the responses of organisms to environmental disturbances and of ...

Effects of abandonment on plant diversity in seminatural grasslands along soil and climate gradients [PDF]
, 2017 Questions: What are the effects of abandonment on plant diversity in semi-natural grasslands? Do the effects of abandonment on taxonomic and functional diversity vary along environmental gradients of climate and soil?

Compensatory traits can explain the concave cost function of purely sexual traits
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Abstract The cost of ornamentation is often measured experimentally to study the relative importance of sexual and viability selection for ornamentation, but these experiments can lead to a misleading conclusion when compensatory trait is ignored. For example, a classic experiment on the outermost tail feathers in

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Fibrous benzenetrispeptide (BTP) hydrogels, fabricated via strain‐promoted azide‐alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) crosslinking, form robust, bioinert networks. These hydrogels can support 3D cell culture, where cell viability and colony growth depend on the fiber content.

The role of spines in anthropogenic seed dispersal on the Galápagos Islands
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Dispersal has important ecological and evolutionary consequences for populations, but understanding the role of specific traits in dispersal can be difficult and requires careful experimentation.

Herkogamy, a Principal Functional Trait of Plant Reproductive Biology
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL PLANT SCIENCES, 2018 Premise of research. Phenotypic traits that consistently mediate species’ responses to environmental variation (functional traits) provide a promising approach toward generalizing ecological and evolutionary patterns and thereby gaining insights into the
