Multirobot Aerial Soft Manipulator for Floating Litter Collection

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multirobot aerial manipulator enables autonomous floating litter collection by controlling the shape of a flexible rope equipped with a hook‐based tool. Adaptive rope‐shape planning enhances grasping performance while reducing tension, demonstrating the potential of aerial robots for floating litter removal. Removing floating litter from water bodies

African Grass Invasion Threatens Tropical Wetland Biodiversity: Experimental Evidence from Echinochloa pyramidalis Invasion in a Mexican Ramsar Site

Grasses
African grasses deliberately introduced for cattle forage have become among the most destructive invaders of tropical wetlands globally, yet invasion mechanisms and management strategies remain poorly understood.

Interbody Wire for Reconfigurable Robots: Bridging Integrated Morphological Reconfiguration and Distributed Wire‐Mediated Cooperation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
TwinX shows how a single interbody wire connecting two robots can support both integrated morphological reconfiguration and distributed wire‐mediated cooperation. When the robots dock, they reconfigure into different forms for locomotion and manipulation.

Success of coastal sage scrub restoration is influenced by local adaptations of shrub species

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Restoring plant communities is increasingly challenging with climate change. While practitioners have traditionally used local seed sources, many are recommending assisted migration, possibly from more extreme environments such as inland rather than coastal environments, for restoration.

Nutritional and Fermentative Variability of Silages Used in Tropical Livestock Systems Evaluated Through Multivariate Analysis

Grasses
Silages produced from different forage species exhibit substantial variability in chemical composition, digestibility, and fermentation characteristics, which may influence forage quality and preservation efficiency in livestock systems.

Defining the original extent and floristic composition of the naturally-treeless grasslands of the Liverpool Plains, North Western Slopes, New South Wales [PDF]

, 2008
A study was conducted on the Liverpool Plains (30o 43’–31o 44’S; 149o 40’–150o 41’E), North Western Slopes of NSW, to determine the original boundaries of the naturally-treeless grasslands, to determine reasons for the lack of woody vegetation on these ...

Effects of rapidly imposed water deficit on photosynthetic parameters of three C4 grasses

, 2009
Water deficit, when rapidly imposed on three C4 grasses of the different metabolic subtypes, Paspalum dilatatum Poiret (NADP-malic enzyme), Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers (NAD-malic enzyme) and Zoysia japonica Steudel (phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase ...
