Elevational homogenization of mountain parasitoids across six decades

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2023
Significance Mountain species are highly sensitive to climate change, but knowledge of climate impact on insect communities is limited. We analyzed a six-decade dataset of European bristle flies, a parasitoid group which regulates insect herbivory within

Additive Manufacturing of NiTi Shape Memory Alloys for Elastocaloric Applications: A Review

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables complex NiTi architectures that overcome key limitations in elastocaloric refrigeration, including poor heat transfer and high mechanical work input. This review surveys recent advances in LPBF‐ and DED‐fabricated NiTi shape memory alloys for elastocaloric applications, highlighting process–structure–performance ...

Time Series Homogenization with ACMANT: Comparative Testing of Two Recent Versions in Large-Size Synthetic Temperature Datasets

Climate, 2023
Homogenization of climatic time series aims to remove non-climatic biases which come from the technical changes in climate observations. The method comparison tests of the Spanish MULTITEST project (2015–2017) showed that ACMANT was likely the most ...

Where Most Frameworks Degrade: Flexible Bimetallic Phosphonate Crystals as pH‐Universal Supercapacitor Electrodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Plastically flexible single crystals of the bimetallic phosphonate framework [Cu(2,2′‐bpy)VO(O3PC6H5)2] combine mechanical adaptability with robust pseudocapacitive charge storage. The material delivers about 140 Fg−1 at pH 4 and pH 10 and remains stable across pH 2‐12, enabling energy storage under comparatively mild electrolyte conditions.

Edgeworth expansions for slow-fast systems with finite time scale separation [PDF]

, 2019
We derive Edgeworth expansions that describe corrections to the Gaussian limiting behaviour of slow-fast systems. The Edgeworth expansion is achieved using a semi-group formalism for the transfer operator, where a Duhamel-Dyson series is used to ...

Global homogenization of the structure and function in the soil microbiome of urban greenspaces

Science Advances, 2021
This study provides new insights into how the soil microbiome of urban greenspaces differs from surrounding natural ecosystems. The structure and function of the soil microbiome of urban greenspaces remain largely undetermined.

Medical Fabrics with Non‐Antibiotic, Supramolecular Antimicrobial Coatings: A Preventive Approach to Combat Biofilm Formation and Bacterial Dissemination

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents an antibiotic‐free strategy using medical fabrics coated with supramolecular assemblies of polyarginine and hyaluronic acid. These coatings showed strong antimicrobial and anti‐biofilm activity in vitro and in vivo, achieving major bacterial load reductions, including against MRSA.
