The effects of restricted nursing (RN) and the administration of a bovine appeasing substance (BAS) on days −8 and 0 in relation to weaning were evaluated. Both strategies were effective in improving the growth performance of beef calves. Regarding welfare, BAS ‐especially on day 0‐ was more effective than RN.

Defect engineering for highly efficient and stable perovskite top cells for Si tandems
Defect passivation in wide‐bandgap perovskites is essential for enabling high‐efficiency and stable perovskite/Si tandem solar cells. Bulk, surface, and buried‐interface passivation strategies focus on suppressing nonradiative recombination, ion migration, and halide segregation, thereby clarifying critical design principles for next‐generation tandem ...

ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis
