Seasonal diversity, daily use and behaviour of birds using a green roof in a Mediterranean city
Royal Society Open ScienceUrban green roofs offer environmental and social benefits and provide resources for urban wildlife; however, how birds use green roofs remains poorly studied in Mediterranean cities.

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ulnar neuropathy due to compression at the cubital tunnel is common. However, our understanding of the relationships between this type of nerve compression and the variant anconeus epitrochlearis muscle (AEM) is poorly understood. Therefore, the present anatomical study was performed to better elucidate these relationships.

Can green roofs provide habitat for urban bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae)?
Cities and the Environment, 2009 Increasing urbanization of many regions of the world has resulted in the decline of suitable habitat for wild flora and fauna. Green roofs have been suggested as a potential avenue to provide patches of good-quality habitat in highly developed regions ...

Anatomy of the Soft Palate and Its Role in Upper Airway Function: A Narrative Review
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The soft palate is a complex anatomical structure, located at the posterior aspect of the oral and nasal cavities, able to dynamically create valve closure of the nasal and the oral cavities. Its precise movement is critical for speech, swallowing, and respiration. Despite its functional importance, detailed characterization of its constituent

Modulation of Epigenetic Control by Advanced Molecular Tweezers
Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Tailored dimeric molecular tweezers recognize the DNA‐binding part of Histone H4 and interrupt the essential histone‐DNA interaction. ABSTRACT This work addresses the question if supramolecular systems can be tailored to interfere with posttranslational modifications (PTM) and epigenetics.

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite mounting regulatory pressure and growing scientific consensus on biodiversity loss, most corporate action remains reactive, fragmented, and strategically peripheral. Existing frameworks address what firms should report rather than how they can build the organizational capabilities required to act strategically.

, 2019 As urbanization increases it is critical to find the balance between human development requirements and environmental concerns. The conventional usability of the green roof has evolved and acquired a more responsible profile in the environment. A green roof or vegetated roof is a structural design approach that brings nature and engineering together to

Heat Load Mitigation Studies in the W7‐X Stellarator Experiment
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During the experiments at the stellarator Wendelstein 7‐X (W7‐X) with fully water‐cooled plasma‐facing components (PFC), including carbon‐fiber composite (CFC) divertor targets with a thermal load capability of 10 MW/m2, high performance was achieved.
