Ecological values of Hamilton urban streams (North Island, New Zealand): constraints and opportunities for restoration [PDF]

, 2009
Urban streams globally are characterised by degraded habitat conditions and low aquatic biodiversity, but are increasingly becoming the focus of restoration activities.

142Nd/144Nd Inferences on the nature and origin of the source of high 3He/4He magmas [PDF]

, 2017
High-precision measurements of 142Nd/144Nd in picrites from the Baffin Bay region that contain the highest 3He/4He ratios yet measured in terrestrial mantle-derived rocks are indistinguishable from the value measured in the terrestrial standard and other

Design Strategies and Emerging Applications of High‐Performance Flexible Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Flexible piezoresistive pressure sensors underpin wearable and soft electronics. This review links sensing physics, including contact resistance modulation, quantum tunneling and percolation, to unified materials/structure design. We highlight composite and graded architectures, interfacial/porous engineering, and microstructured 3D conductive networks

Interacting adaptation constraints in the Caribbean highlight the importance of sustained adaptation finance

Climate Risk Management, 2023
Adaptation to ever intensifying climate change is of paramount importance to reduce its impacts, in particular for those at the frontlines of climate change such as the Caribbean Small Island Developing States (SIDS). However, a range of constraints make

Residual‐Lithium‐to‐LiF Conversion Enables a LiF–Fluorinated Carbon Interphase for Reconstruction‐Resistant Ni‐Rich Cathodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A fluorine‐rich acrylate monomer (PFHEA) was solvent‐free applied to NCM90 and thermally decomposed under Ar to convert residual lithium into LiF and form a pre‐built LiF/fluorinated amorphous carbon (LiF/FC) interphase. The LiF/FC layer suppresses NiO rock‐salt reconstruction and microcrack propagation, lowers interfacial resistance, and improves Li ...

Wh-Island Constraint in Turkish

Dilbilim Araştırmaları Dergisi, 2017
The paper proposesthat wh-island constraint does not hold in Turkish, at least for theconstructions that contain more than one wh-phrase. The grammaticallyproblematic constructions that have been uttered as wh-island violations inprevious studies have been claimed to be weak Complex DP Island violations. TheDP that c-commands the lower CP constitutes a

Soft Ionic and Electronic Triboelectric Nanogenerators: Toward Attachable and Implantable Biomedical Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides an overview of triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG)–based biomedical applications by classifying studies into electronic and ionic systems across attachable and implantable platforms. It summarizes key material choices, device structures, and working mechanisms that characterize current TENG‐based research, and outlines six future ...

Voltage-Island Partitioning and Floorplanning Under Timing Constraints [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems, 2009
Power consumption is a crucial concern in nanometer chip design. Researchers have shown that multiple supply voltage (MSV) is an effective method for power consumption reduction. The underlying idea behind MSV is the tradeoff between power saving and performance.
