The Morphological Evolution of Galaxies

Science, 2001
Many galaxies have taken on their familiar appearance relatively recently. In the distant Universe, galaxy morphology deviates significantly (and systematically) from that of nearby galaxies at redshifts (z) as low as 0.3. This corresponds to a time ∼3.5 × 109years in the past, which is only ∼25% of the present age of the Universe.

Patterns of wild meat and other protein consumption in the periphery of Salonga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In Central Africa, human activities are severely impacting terrestrial and aquatic wildlife, threatening the food security of millions of people. Accordingly, sustainable use of wildlife is crucial for the nutrition and livelihoods of many rural communities in the region.

The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Serine acetyltransferase (CysE) is a member of the left‐handed β‐helix family of acetyltransferases that catalyze the rate limiting step in de novo cysteine biosynthesis. There are two isoforms of CysE that differ in length, with the shorter isoform lacking approximately 76 amino acids at the N‐terminus of the protein from the serine ...

High‐Coercivity Nd2Fe14B/α‐Fe Nanocomposites With Ultrafine Nanocrystalline Structure via Zr‐Induced Synchronous Precipitation

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanocomposite permanent magnets with reduced rare‐earth content represent a promising class of materials for next‐generation high‐performance applications. However, asynchronous precipitation of soft and hard magnetic phases often results in grain size mismatch and limited coercivity.

Prioritized Real‐Time UAV‐Based Vessel Detection for Efficient Maritime Search

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Real‐time vessel detection in maritime environments is crucial for diverse applications requiring speed and accuracy. Static camera views often introduce blind spots, compromising detection efficiency. This paper proposes a novel, real‐time UAV‐based system that uses a dynamic camera control strategy to address this limitation.

Innovation for Sustainable Development: Assessing Sustainability‐Oriented Innovations in the UK Palm Oil Supply Chains

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research evaluates the adoption of Sustainability‐Oriented Innovations (SOIs) by UK food manufacturers, particularly in the palm oil sector. Despite the global palm oil industry's environmental and social impacts, such as deforestation and labour exploitation, empirical studies on SOIs are limited. This paper addressed this gap by mapping

Improving Cycle Life and Capacity Retention in PVMPO‖Li Dual‐Ion Lithium‐Organic Batteries Using an EC‐Free and FEC Additive Containing Electrolyte

Small Methods, EarlyView.
The major bottleneck of PVMPO‐based positive electrodes is electrode degradation during extended cycling with EC‐containing electrolytes. This issue is mitigated by using EC‐free electrolytes with FEC additives, which exhibit reduced interfacial resistance, fewer surface cracks, improved capacity retention, and suppressed electrode degradation, thereby
