Biogenic Synthesis and Nematicidal Potency of Highly Stable Ag and Fe Nanoparticles From Krascheninnikovia ceratoides and Elaeagnus angustifolia. [PDF]
Chem BiodiversABSTRACT Managing root‐knot nematodes, particularly Meloidogyne incognita, is a significant difficulty in sustainable agriculture because of the environmental toxicity of synthetic chemical nematicides. This study uses leaf extracts of Krascheninnikovia ceratoides (KC) and Elaeagnus angustifolia (EA) to synthesize silver (KC‐AgNPs) and iron (EA‐FeNPs ...

Glacier changes in the Karakoram region mapped by multimission satellite imagery [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2014 Positive glacier-mass balances in the Karakoram region during the last decade have fostered stable and advancing glacier termini positions, while glaciers in the adjacent mountain ranges have been affected by glacier recession and thinning.

The 2015 Surge of Hispar Glacier in the Karakoram [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2017 The Karakoram mountain range is well known for its numerous surge-type glaciers of which several have recently surged or are still doing so. Analysis of multi-temporal satellite images and digital elevation models have revealed impressive details about the related changes (e.g., in glacier length, surface elevation and flow velocities) and considerably

Tracing Ancient Migration Routes: Did <i>Gloydius</i> Pitvipers Disperse Across Paleo-Tibet Through Temperate and Subtropical Corridors? [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe investigated the evolutionary and biogeographic history of Himalayan and Hindu Kush Gloydius pitvipers by integrating time‐calibrated phylogenetic analyses with paleoclimatic reconstructions and species distribution modeling. Our results suggest an early Miocene origin in East and Southeast Asia, followed by westward dispersal across Paleo‐Tibet via
